This journal entries serves as a link collection of japanese artists that share a name with a western artist. More info here.
Since the old list became too large and impossible to edit, I split it into 4 parts, to allow more growth.
Part 1 (A-F)
Part 2 (G-M)
Part 2 (N-S)
Part 4 (T-Z)
How to: to create a new unicode-profile you need to scrobble at least one track. If you don't know how to type unicode romaji you can copy and paste from here:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
1234567890
?!:;#%&
Note that the unicode characters are case-sensitive! So make sure you use the correct capitalization.
If you know of any japanese band that needs a unicode profile, leave a comment. I will add it here to connect the 2 profiles.
