This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Oh I love this one. It introduced me to Casiopea and they're a PHENOMENAL band. Which sent me into a hole of finding more stuff like that, and now I love J-Jazz.
Recommendations? Not even limited to J-jazz — I used to do a lot more active music searching and I'm trying to get back into that, part of which involves asking random people who like different music than I do for recs
Not the person you responded to, but I got super into Haruomi Hosono last year. Sort of 70's Japanese electronic jazz. Hosono House and Paraiso are great albums. He also contributed to Pacific, and it's a great jumping off point for all the other artists on that record.
Cornelius is another really fun Japanese electro band, found them on an old episode of Yo Gabba Gabba.
Quite unrelated, but if you're into hip hop Mr Giscard was a fun find for me. It's in French, which I don't speak, so can't speak to the lyrical content, but it's a fun listen. Similarly, Lous and the Yakuza, this time in German.
Happy listening!
