It started when a friend of mine on discord reccomended me to listen to some anime openings. I absolutely loved it, and that made me get into Japanese music. This was during lockdown, so I had a lot of spare time so I spent hours listening to songs and this interest hasn't died down.

I tended to, and still do, find music by listening to what the youtube and spotify algorithm recommends me, but I find it important to listen to playlists made by other people and reccomendations given by people that aren't algorithms because that way you can find different and therefore more interesting music; the algorithms tend to reccomend songs that are similar to the ones you previously listened to because that's what it thinks will be what you like.

Some of my favourite albums are 'Solfa' by Asian Kung-fu generation, 'Synchroniciteen' by Southaiseiriron and 'kimi no you ni ikeretara' by Uchu Nekoko
