This is about anikura (アニクラ) which is a portmanteau of the loan words anison (アニソン) and club (クラブ). Interestingly enough, anison itself is a portmanteau of anime (アニメ) and song (ソング) which refers to musical tracks used in various anime series and is often misspelled by adding a "g" at the end since bawka gaijins can't into nippongo properly. Regardless, anikura refers to the use of "anison" related music in a "club setting" hence the genre's name. Still confused? Lurk moar.
One of the more notable anikura is Akihabara MOGRA (MOGRA for short) which has been associated with this imageboard for well over a decade. However, just limiting yourself to one venue would be a disservice since there are other livehouses and even devoted anison groups who help contribute to anikura all over Japan and the world! For those who wish to explore the anikura scene in Japan, otaku-bar.com would be a great place to start your journey.
Although the primary source of anikura comes from venues in Japan, there are also shows and events held online. As previously mentioned: MOGRA is the most well known anikura which also streams a lot of their events online via Twitch. However, there are also individuals associated with MOGRA who stream online and one of them is the President of MOGRA: D-YAMA, who goes by the channel name of 'choroyama' on Twitch. MOGRA can be used as the base on discovering other venues and even DJs who also stream online.
Since online streaming is the play, there are international anikura which primarily stream online and also hold physical events when available. One of the anikura group that can trace their origin to this very imageboard would be Anison Hijack which has been streaming consistently every two weeks on the Twitch platform. Obviously, there are many international anikura online and hopefully you can check them out!
The following is a sample list of various anikura that stream online via Twitch.

bootleg shrine is probably my favorite running event. The only thing I don't like about it is that they never fucking schedule it in advance and they only announce it like two weeks from it happening.
>>50663357
it's just the easiest filetype that literally every device can play without issue and that even tech illiterates can understand. Yeah most things should also be able to play m4a probably but that's a weird and scary sounding filetype and if somehow it really doesn't play on whatever someone wants to listen to they're probably not going to know how to fix it and that's one less person listening to this stuff.
And you're correct that it's already lossy, but I'm also re-encoding at higher values than it was recorded, so technically I'm introducing a slight file bloat but at least it isn't degrading the audio.

Just found out this small ani(boka?)kura event called Now VOCALOIDing... Tuned in right on the tailend of their last set lol
It was a good set and I love that they played otoMADs in their sets as well. Definitely tuning into their next event.
@NowVOCALOIDing on both Twitter and Twitch if anyone else is interested. It was only me and another person in chat when I tuned in.

Oh shit I went back to check and the archive is still up with seemingly no parts cut or muted. Definitely gonna listen to it later. If any anon would be so kind to archive it that would be very appreciated.

seems neat, only 2 broadcasts though and only the older one looks like it's not been butchered by copyshit claims yet
pulling down a copy to see how it is

lots of rave/acid/deep house type stuff. final set hasn't started yet but seemed like a pretty solid-ish event that I'll need to grab a copy of later. It seems like it'd be very good background music type listening.
also surprisingly I'd say that what was probably the headliner(nemonoika/nizikawa) was probably the worst set? Or rather, it felt like it really clashed with and didn't fit in with the other sets since it felt a bit more like a standard anison set.
