Other than Kajiura, I listen to FLOW. Maybe they're my favourite Japanese band even though their recent songs somehow sounded like copy-pasted-with-melody-changes imo, but it still works because they're always energetic lol. uverworld, but their songs are hit/miss for me. Monkey Majik, I know they haven't release a new material since like forever but I love them. Dat voices KOKIA, only when her songs don't bring me to sleep old AKB songs because they're catchy. For western musician, sorry for being ancient but I listen mostly to 90s and early 2000s songs. The Corrs, Dido, Garbage, Gorillaz, Lighthouse Family and some other are on the list. I occasionally enjoy recent pop songs but I don't necessarily love the artist. As you can see from that list I have a really soft spot for women with low voice (contralto), hence my love for Keiko. There are some artist that I couldn't stand no matter what, Bruno Mars for example.
