I do :o
I listen a lot to japanese music. There are a lot of artists that I like, but my favourites are Shiina Ringo and Tokyo Jihen, Bonnie Pink, Hikaru Utada, capsule, m-flo, L'Arc-en-Ciel, The Pillows and a lot of Anime/Videogame OSTs, particulary Ichiko Hashimoto of RahXephon Soundtrack fame.
I don't have a specific favourite genre of music, so I'll basically listen to everything that sounds good (to me). As you can see, there's Rock and Jazz in Ringo and her band, Pop-Rock in Bonnie Pink, R&B and (experimental-)pop in Hikaru Utada, electronic in capsule, electronic rap in m-flo, etc.
Btw, here, have my last.fm account: http://www.last.fm/user/ShinjiPG/ . I'll glady add friends : D

To Henry Spencer:
If you listen to Susumu, than you listen to one of the greatest (my personal favourite too). The thing is, he is quite "unique", or at least I haven't found another artist who resembles his sound.
However, I recommend you to check out capsule's work, particulary Lounge Designers Killer and, the last one, FLASH BACK, because both of them represent the extremes of their sound: one is more cute electro-pop (and a bit noisy) and the other is more melodic, heavy beat and euro-sounding.
For more experimental electronic sounds, you should definitely go for Cornelius. Again, I'd recommend one of his first albums, 69/96, and the latest one, Sensuous, to notice the different possibilities in his sound that you'll get throughout the discography.
As for electronic, that's probably the best I can recommend you.
But if you like capsule's LDK, you can always pick up some Perfume album for more cute electro-pop. It's a 3 girls band produced by capsule's dude, Nakata Yasutaka.
Oh, I forgot to mention Fantastic Plastic Machine, but I really don't like the guy's sound. One or two nice songs, the rest is garbage (imo). You could like, tho, I don't know.

No problem :D
Well, there's no other artist with that kind of sound that I know of, but at least he released a GREAT amount of albums, so there's always enough! There's also his 2 first bands discography, Mandrake and P-Model... It's a huge list if you combine the bands and his solo works :x
