omg I've totally been neglecting this thread lol

@pomegranate: Her voice is so pretty! I must have that first song~ Totally gonna get her stuff.

Let's see...I've discovered mini, Akira Kosemura, Laura Shigihara, and Oumou Sangare

I love them all.

I think most people know mini lol Was waiting for her debut forever.

Akira Kosemura is a minimalist, ambient, showgaze artist who has some fantastic work. I love the vocalist he used for the album "grasslands"...I wrote a very long review of the album on my lastfm lol

Laura Shigihara is a soundtrack composer...most people know her as doing the music for Plants vs. Zombies. I have to say, I've never seen someone with so much musical promise. This girl understands how to compose, to say the least. She's done music for like 15 games, and I think she's only 25. In any case, I am ADDICTED to this little song she wrote for her RPG game called "Melolune".



I can only imagine if someone like Ayu released this song in full. Can you see? It would be EPIC as a jpop song.


Oumou Sangare is an African artist and I learned about her from the movie Kingdom of Heaven. They used one of her songs, and I loved it, and took me forever to find it because it wasnt on the soundtrack...but now I have it! And I love her.



I've always loved nearly all african music I've heard...but I still haven't looked into more artists besides her and femi kuti. There was an african artist at the FIFA concert I really liked too...Oumou will be my starting point!

@emi: yeah! her voice is so soothing~and you can find most of her stuff at japanesemusicdream

and melolune sounds awesome!

ah and one more artist...I've only heard one song from her and that's all I need lol

Cecile Corbel - Arrietty Song
I love this so song so much! I listened to it 300 times on repeat for 4 days! It's just so soothing and relaxing and just awesome! I even got tenshi no hane addicted to it lol

I think that this song is the theme song to the movie "The Borrower Arietty" produced by Studio Ghibli

Currently trying out TOWA TEI, I'm in the mood of listening to more Shibuya-Kei.
So far I listened to his best album... it was so relaxing <3 especially the last track~

Now I'm addicted to "GBI", it's in collaboration with Kylie Minogue <3

The 2 girls at the end kind of remind me of Peco & Princess lol

i am trying Ken Hirai and AKB48. I never thought I'll like AKB48, but it's impossible to resist their new single. Beginner is such a catchy pop song!!! Ken Hirai has amazing ballads. I tried his best album a couple of days ago and I totally fell in love!!! i like every single song, especially 大きな古時計. i'll definitely try his new single when it comes out. I am also trying BREAKERZ and NEWS. I tried both bands before, but they didn't appeal to me much. This time, I listened to their new singles, and both turned out to be pretty good.
For western music, I am trying Within Temptation's latest album The Heart of Everything. The reason why I tried it was actually because of the album's cover art XD. i'm not sure if I like the band or their style yet..... but so far, my fav songs from them are Angels and All I Need <3

New artists for today! Mainly Korean dance/R&B girls~

Hyena ( 혜나 ) - Her songs were alright, but I wasnt impressed.

JJ ( 제이제이 ) - Really surprised by her, since I heard she was a flop with only this album...but I actually really enjoyed a few tracks, and the rest were tolerable.

I especially love the ballad "All for you".


I also checked out Mina and NARSHA like two weeks ago...I still need to get more stuff from them, so far, they have like one or two tracks from the albums I got, that I really like.

I was a little disappointed by them though...because everything looked so awesome, and I wanted it to be too...


Checking out SUPERCAR and Hwayobi right now~ I have really high hopes for both of them.

I am waiting for the new album from Keri Hilson she has a few good songs, but I am curious to her new album if i like it better then her ''older'' album.


I am so enthusiastic about Cher Lloyd she is in the X-Factor UK atm where she is one of the big favorites, I really like the songs she sings on there and gives it her own twist, i am hoping she wins so she can release her own songs.
Her newest preformance:

^me too... XD


I tried out AKB48 because everyone seems to like them. But I think I don't like them... XD
Also I tried out JASMINE and Nishino Kana - I'm not sure about these two. I think I have to listen to some more of their stuff.

Recently I've been loving Lauren Pritchard's "When the Night Kills the Day,"
Her voice (and the piano!) are a breath of fresh air!
Also, Duffy
She's like the 60's soul queens reincarnated

She's a contestant on the X Factor in the U.K. I personally don't think she can sing amazingly - but hey, everyone to their own
