Wow, no way! I swear everytime I shill these guys in a japanese music thread, I'm the only one who knows who they are.

I don't know any, the japanese music scene (indie or not) leans more towards pop and rock. I recall a japanese r&b singer, but the catch was that she sang in korean. There are some korean r&b artists, if you are interested.
