Reccomended site:
Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music
It defines around 150 different types of electronic music, each entry has several music extracts to demonstrate the styles. Very readable, although the entries are often rather opinionated!
Under House -> JPOP a remix of Ayumi's Trust is included.
But it's a shame the author's attitude towards Japan isn't a little more open:
Quote:
Is anyone even surprised that this kind of stuff would come from Japan? That whole country is like Bizarro World. They do everything we do, just in a really strange way. [...] The whole world continuously scratches it's head at the far east, then sits back and watches to see what wacky thing the Japanese will do next.

Despite his words on Japan (it gets worse than the quote above!) he really knows his stuff so it's still a great site. No need to flame him in your replies to this thread.
