Yoko Kanno.

 

Amazing female voice and ultra imaginative composer.

 

A few weeks ago I stumbled across her whilst listening to some interesting jazz. Since got hold of a heap of her stuff and it is so diverse that it is not possible to like it all.

 

The main reason I understand for her musical diversity is that she is simply a gifted composer and also because she writes the scores for a few a anime flicks (not my interest, but none the less). For example: Cowboy Bebop, Vision of Escaflowne and Macross Plus.

 

Oh yeah, the jazz song that got me listening was Autumn In Ganymede from the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack.

I really like UA clap.gif - I know somebody already mentioned her but I think she rocks. A reggae/Sade kinda mix is what I think of her. Some of her songs are really chilled and sexy.
