Venturing slightly out of idm territory and into "J-Pop"...(bleeech, I
really hate that term). If the idea of a Pixi Stik headache appeals to
you, you should check out tracks by Tomoe Shinohara.
Basically, she makes Bjork look like Patti Smith.
Very bubbly, sassy, bratty, and sweet. But Tomoe's production team
easily crushes the competition, as far as frenetic, glitchy, and fun go.
"Supermodel" from 1996, which I think is her first, is a good place to
start.
Napstering Tomoe Shinohara should return you a nice enough selection to
sample.. though it's mostly the more recent stuff, which isn't as good.
Be forewarned: you have to set aside your avant garde pretentions, put on
your Bis suits, and be ready to hop around.
