JElectro & JUrban, mostly.

Anyone from DTOPIA and contemode. Which includes Aira Mitsuki (SHE'S A POKEFAN) and Perfume (and capsule, mentioned because I have serious love for them).

SAWA has been getting a lot better, but I've always liked her.

Nujabes, Thelma Aoyama, Miliyah Kato... These are good examples of who I like on the JUrban side of the spectrum.

I tend to listen to j-ska more than anything else. Bands like Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, Muramasa, midnightPumpkin, Ore Ska Band, GOLLBETTY, and as such. I will admit that some anime songs rope me in, but that's a rare occasion.

Akiko Shikata (sang the Opening songs for Umineko VMs and Anime)
Aya Hirano (aka Haruhi Suzumiya, Konata Izumi and so on)
JAM Project
Masaaki Endoh/Endou (sings a lot of anime OP themes)
