Hiromi's music especially is pretty interesting, if there are more Japanese jazz artists (or jazz artists from any country really) that make similar music I'd be happy to hear about them. Mmm, do you like Jazzy Hip-Hop at all? If so, I can certainly recommend some. (Keep in mind that the majority of the songs are purely instrumental). | ||

Hey circos, can you recommend me some good post-rock artists. So far, all I've been listening to is Mono. Need more post-rock in my life. Totally agree on the fact that Japan having strong jazz-hop producers. Sucks that Nujabes have to leave so early in his life, but there are other great producers coming out of Japan. My personal favorites are Dj Okawari, Cradle Orchestra, Tsunenori, Herajika Tracks, and Michita. | ||

The only only annoying thing is that they kind of use the name of the track as lyrics, so it's absolute garbage for non-japanese speakers. I think they released one or two albums in the US with english titles but it may be hard to find... | ||

 I've been into Japanese music a lot lately and you've helped me find some gems in this topic. So, here are a few of my random favorites I haven't seen mentioned yet: Post-rock + Show Spoiler + World's End Girlfriend (neoclassical / post-rock / electronic glitch and breakcore / jazz ), a bit like Kashiwa Daisuke. This man must be crazy from album with Mono (basically 1hr song) Miaou (straight post-rock) More ambiental stuff + Show Spoiler + Matryoshka (ambient / post-rock) Piana (ambient / electronic) Shibuya-kei (oldschool lounge (electro) pop) + Show Spoiler + early Capsule Pizzicato Five Cornelius Kahimi Karie (カヒミ・カリィ) Haven't been grabbed by other j-pop except for Nakata's Capsule and Perfume yet.  Neoclassical / folk + Show Spoiler + OK, someone already mentioned her, but still: Akiko Shikata (志方あきこ) And here's one for fun  + Show Spoiler + | ||

I don't generally like "generic" bands like this, but ONE OK ROCK is a pretty good band. I think it is kind of funny the singer used to be part of the pop group NEWS. | ||

I was also heavy into Aya Ueto and I took a quick glance at her wiki and it said latest album was released in 2009.. Is she pretty much done with music these days and just acting/commercials like before or what's the deal with her? | ||
