I don't really know anything about mainstream pop, r'n'b, or pop-rock, and especially don't listen to lyrics so can't say anything about rap, country, or 'singer-songwriter' music except that The Last Poets were the progenitors of rap, and The Velvet Underground said most of the stuff I need to hear. I do know a bit about 90s music like eurodance, and a little of 80s popular music, by the virtue of having grown among it.

P.S. Won't you believe it, audio stopped working via the Invidious frontend that I use, just as posted this. It might take me a bit to figure out any artists or tracks that you mention.

P.P.S. Since most people here don't understand what I'm proposing, I don't see any reason to continue the thread.

Going off just this track:

This feels like a wide selection of indietronica from early-mid 2010s: e.g. Battles's ‘Atlas’, Tobacco's ‘Constellation Dirtbike Head’, Monster Zoku Onsomb, maybe Black Moth Super Rainbow, some of Ratatat.

Perhaps Bubblegum Octopus.

Lots of nintendocore music, like Amy Can Flyy, 1-800-Z0MBiE.

Maybe Henry Homesweet.

Alas, not much anime-style tunes, as I'm more used to separating them between sweet Western indietronica and Japanese happy-hardcore.

Try also more-traditional Japanese synthpop, like:

Takako Minekawa's ‘Roomic Cube’
Space Ponch's ‘The World Shopping With Space Ponch’
Buffalo Daughter's ‘Great Five Lakes’
Pizzicato Five, e.g. ‘La Règle Du Jeu’.
