well, i'm looking for a good music related anime.
i've already seen
beck
nana
kaikan phrase
-----------------------
nodame cantabile
full moon

i think they are all really good, so i'll give any recomendation a shot.
i've read a lot of manga too, but since this is music, the anime is much better

Try listening to Saint Seiya music, there are really good OSTs.

For example Pegasus Fantasy, Blue Dream, Ikki´s Theme, Death Trip Serenade, Bell of Angelus, Mime´s Requiem, Chikyugi, etc.


Butter-Fly and Brave Heart from Digimon are also cool ones.

Macross Dude, Macross!!, any Macross song from any movie or series are great, the new one has been a total success in Japan and all the singles and O.S.T Have made it to the top 3, check Macross F (Frontier) in youtube you'll love the songs.

Guys... I think you missed what he meant... I think he means Anime that is centered around music (the OST is DIRECTLY related to the show)

Nana = young singers journey to fame, though its just as much about love as music...
Beck = band's journey (you should read the manga)
kaikan phrase = centered around band leader


I really can't think of any btw... Sorry

Wow... I didn't know there were so many...
The closest one I know is Skip Beat, which is about acting (and love)...

Thank you for the ost recommendation, but as kyuuketsuki  said, i'm looking for a music-centered anime.
i just finished "La corda d'oro" (another classical music related) and it's pretty good.
i don't know if there are more anime like this, but i started watching skip beat and i liked it. it's very funny. so thank you, blurfbreg, for that recommendation. 

K-ON just started airing this week

http://randomc.animeblogger.net/2009/04/03/k-on-01/

its basicly about these 4 girls who join a "Light Music" club. its being done by the same people who did Haruhi and Lucky Star so there is a bunch of Moe in it but the music elements of it seem really good.

(btw watch Haruhi ep 12 "Live Alive" great music ep and might be the greatest anime music performance)

EDIT: here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Avm7x0zj6nE and these animators are doing a full series about music I am expecting alot.

EDIT2: LOL at the Detroit Metal City reference in the ep.

K-ON! is example 9230 that no one ever tells me anything ever =(

Otherwise, I would have been told about this awesome series

Just check the torrent sites.  About 500 groups are doing it.  >_>

I'm not surprised.

Gravitation... definitely watch it.

Don't listen to other people's future comments.

Beck...I enjoyed it, but I enjoy the English dub version more then the original.

(and now the sun will rise from the wrong direction).

Shugo Chara is quite good!

K-ON!

This show reminds me of Azumanga Daioh and Beck mixed together in one series xD. I can't believe I just started watching it today, and it's almost the end of summer vacation too >_<.

K-ON's super cool ending theme song : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUKwH81csts
