First of all… wow, first update in a long time. I haven’t had time to post to the site because of work and school commitments, and trying to keep a crazy posting schedule didn’t help either. I think I’m going to scale back to at least one post per week, instead of the 3 or 4 per week that I used to do before.

The latest music find I have is a now-defunct Japanese band called Cymbals. I can’t recall exactly how I came across them, but I think it might have been through exploring related artists on Last.fm. Their sound is a very good mix of jazz and pop that I’ve had stuck in my head for quite a while now. I’ve only been able to get their music through YouTube – my favorite destination for japanese downloads doesn’t have it, and I can’t buy stuff off the Japanese itunes portal (which is retarded). I wish I knew of American bands that played this kind of music, because I could at least go to their concerts.
