>>76985550Same. I'm a bit of a music autist. Grew up surrounded by musicians. And while I enjoy the idol aspect for providing some interesting events and hype opportunities I genuinely can't listen to jpop. Everything sounds like a boring isekai opening. There are some interesting covers here and there but nothing groundbreaking.
And the production on most originals is atrocious. You have talents like Mumei and Gura who would be perfecy for some sadgirl indie pop but got completely wasted and autotuned into oblivion.
And from a number perspective the success of peak Mori is enough to prove that there is a massive market for something different. Anything. Especially when you already have JP shitting out a fuckton of songs with most of them struggling to gain any traction.
