Hi!
As you probably know, these mp3's are from japanese anime, pop music, and games. This is a short list of albums that I find interesting and would recommend to others. So if you want proof of my inconsistant taste in music click a link below to hear the song. And if you find it to your liking, pick up the album. As these compressed files pale in comparison to the real thing. Oh, and click the pic to the left to see more pictures from the album if availiable. I update this page whenever I find spare time to rip/scan or fiddle with notepad.        [Spinoff page]
Hey, a Big shout out to all of you who have written in to let me know that this page actually gets read. Thanks!
