Jay is a kid who is obsessed with all kinds of music in general. However, he is different from everyone else in the way he enjoys it; while listening to music he can become somewhat like a human visualizer and create actual physical manifestations of the music he hears. For example, if he listens to a dupstep song, weird humanoid like light creatures appear and start dancing. If he listens to country, his appearance changes to what a basic country singer would wear. If he listens to rap, money starts raining down or something like that. However, on this particular day, through his mix of music, a song starts playing he's never heard of and for some reason he can't control what comes out of his mind. It is a heavy metal screamo song that causes him to release a music dragon, which he has to find a way to defeat before it destroys the city. So, he uses his magic over music to find out ways to defeat the dragon through techno, rap, rock, and pop music, each offering him a different weapon to use at his advantage. At the end, his music doesn't appear to be strong enough to defeat the dragon and he is at a loss of what to do. Finally, he finishes off the dragon by using his manifestation power to summon something he has never used before... (sort of like the guitar used by Naota, in Fooly Cooly, as a weapon.)
Visual inspirations
I want to go for a colorful, and almost distorted, look for the characters and backgrounds. Examples of inspirations:
