Techno-Kayo Maniacs, published by P-Vine Books in the year 2000, chronicles Japanese technopop from the 1970s to the dawn of the 21st century. It features a selection of 210 records, which are curated into five separate sections.

On this webpage you'll find all 210 records, many including covers scanned by myself, as well as machine translations of the book. I've used Chat GPT and Deep L. GPT is a pain in the ass and is maybe 80% accurate whereas Deep L is more accurate but takes longer and I can't give it specific instructions (which, to be fair, GPT loves to ignore regardless).

With that said, some of my own translations are included here, which are all marked with a dagger †, and are viewable from the footnotes. Later I might write some of my own entries, but a lot more work needs to be done before I get to that point.

I've also included a personal five-star rating for each of the entries (NOTE: current ratings are just tests to ensure the javascript is running correctly.)
