Yoko Kanno. Goddess or genius?

Discuss.

Neither.

Secretly, she's a Bavarian Fruit Bat.

So the sophisticated echolocation system is what allows her to create such beautiful music?

Qui le hell est Yoko Kanno?

I'm just assuming she's a recently-discovered variety of tropical freshwater bivalve.

Actually, she's a Japanese composer who does a lot of anime soundtracks.

Her credits include the soundtracks to Macross Plus, Cowboy Bebop and the upcoming Escaflowne movie.

She's really quite amazing.

(She is Not J-Pop, either. Very very not J-pop. J-something, definitely, but not J-pop.)

When the hell are we jamming, Holly? I haven't seen you since Gwen's birthday party or something.
