I got the limited edition version of the latest from Salyu (Photogenic). The album is a little bland but the included DVD of her "Minima" performance is great. Just her and her producer playing piano (with occasional backing tracks) on stage.

Got into 80's Japanese artist Nav Katze recently, great stuff. REALLY great stuff.

Hey Voltin, if you like the 80s new wave type sound, have you heard of Nirgilis? They have a very upbeat sound. You might like:

Please tell me you know Yuki's original band, Judy and Mary. They are my absolute favorite Japanese band.
Here's a slice of their pure pop perfection, "Blue Tears":

Yes, I know Judy and Mary. Fun, punky, energetic stuff. I really like Yuki's solo material more though. She really has explored more musically since they split IMO.

Hey Zen have you heard the latest Asian Kung-Fu Generation the album is called Best Hit AKG? Don't know if it's some of their best hits but I hadn't heard some of the songs on the album before, but they are damn good, oh and it seems like iTunes is putting out more Asian music.
