I actually forgot about Coloris and Chiptek so it was nice to listen to those releases again. From what I remember, Towa Tei and Cornelius were names thrown into She's direction, due to how similar their sound was. So definitely look them up too, but just a warning that they dabbled in EVERYTHING (mainly pop/hip-hop), so it's not just 8bit stuff. Also, you'll eventually run into DJ's like MONDO GROSSO (used to be known as Shinchi Osawa) and fall into the hip/hop & Jazztronic music craze so take it easy lol.

I definitely will add them to my Infinite List Of Artists To Listen To™! But also plz stop? I can only be dragged into five musical directions at once, and trying to dust off my love for acid jazz will shave off another hour of my sleep schedule Can't watch the videos you posted @colorful人生 1 YuyoDrift reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only songs I ever knew from them (they were the hardest fucking group to look up music for lol) were "my will" from the first ED of Inuyasha, and "movin' on", and from them I discovered other artists from this time period too by mistake. It was also my first time learning about how girl groups in Japan are formed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YuyoDrift 1540 Posted August 7, 2019 Not sure if it was discussed in previous pages, but one artist that shot up in popularity during as early as 2000 was Hitomi Yaida. I always praise her, as she was one of first to play around with that heartfelt and artistic form of music that other artists after her like YUI, Aiko, Miwa, and Ayaka still use years later. My favorite song of hers will always be Mikansei No Melody from her 2002 album i/flancy. 1 colorful人生 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
