Mina Kubota: Post-Yoko Kanno?
I have no idea what the “Post” prefix means in musical terms. Post-rock doesn’t sound too much like rock afterall. Now we have an artist who, according to CDJapan/Neowing, has been dubbed “Post-Yoko Kanno” or the “female Ryuichi Sakamoto/Joe Hisaishi”. Her name is Mina Kubota. I have no idea why she has to be named as the female version of Sakamoto and Hisaishi, unless it shows in her music. Maybe calling her “Post-Yoko Kanno” is just a marketing move. Well I’m sure writing about it 
To listen to her music, here are a few sites that have samples of her work:
Last FM
Imeem - Sora no Theme
Imeem - Ready for the Challenge
Imeem - Romeo and Juliet
It’s not any of the stuff that made Kanno stand out from the rest, but it’s still good stuff

She composed the soundtracks for Kannazuki no Miko, Kyoshirou to Towa no Sora and Kagihime Monogatari…I really like all of them ^-^ There’s really something in her song that make you feel the atmosphere of anime
