Shibuya Kei anyone?

[lazesummerstone]

HEy I'm just wondering if anyone listens to Shibuya-Kei music on this forum?
These are the Shibuya Kei type bands that I'm loving at the moment:
Anything By Readymade records, FPM, Kahime Karie, Yoshinora Sunahara, The Cymbals, DOB, Hi-posi, Atami, Oh! Penelope.

Do you guys have any others that you really like? I really want to find out more bands that have this kind of sound.

OMJ, I haven't heard anyone talk about Shibuya-kei in AGES. *hugs Pizzicato Five records to chest*
Huge, HUGE Pizzicato Maniac for several years of my life.
Still love them.

The thing I DON'T like about a lot of these bands though is that in general, they don't seem to be so active anymore, so I feel like I never hear anything new from them.

Pizzicato 5 broke up a while ago, but Nomiya maki is still releasing solo albums in the same style (she has a track on the new katamari damacy 2) and Konishi is remixing.. Actually a new P5 album is coming out that is basically famous producers and remixers remixing everything to try to summarize the Pizzicato sound in 5 minutes. It sounds really good.

Well... Nomiya Maki is what I never liked about the group... she's so full of herself. So I never really felt the necessity to buy a solo album...
But yeah, I mean they had music by here and Kahimi Karie on the Katamary 2 soundtrack.
