> Before Cowboy Bebop, I met this composer. And the composer was female and very eclectic. And during the production, she would kinda just roll around on the floor and do very strange things. And on occasion she would make strange noises. I thought it would be interesting if I could put her in as a character in my next series.
Yep that tracks
But personally, I found Ed (in the anime) to be super annoying. I wish her character was written differently.

The music of hers that I like is great music and if she was influenced by other songs then that's mostly alright I think.
The couple of songs that are more copies/ripoffs than just "influenced by" do irk me, but from what I saw last time I looked into this none of my favourites were straight ripoffs.
