Eurobeat Prime :: Forum

Besides Eurobeat I listen to quite a lot of Christian Rock. :oops: Why is that embarrassing? No need to blush about that. I'm quite into dcTalk, Audio Adrenaline, and Switchfoot (not necessarily "Christian Rock", but certainly close enough) myself. I also listen to a lot of 80's New Wave,...

www.ddrfreak.com has the news. www.broadjam.com is hosting the contest. If you ask me, this is a prime chance to get some Eurobeat back into DDR. Hot Limit, FANTASY, and others have long stood as landmarks of what made DDR, DDR. But now, with the "American-izing" of newer mixes, these nost...

Right. I know that Forever Young has a Parapara routine. MOST Eurobeat songs have Parapara routines, at least, to my knowledge. HOWEVER! That doesn't mean that Forever Young's seeming PURPOSE, for lack of a better word, is simply Parapara. One would venture that it's MORESO focused (albeit, admitted...

Ahhn, I don't think this is what I meant... ...see, I can tell exactly what you're talking about. Sure, to each artist and label, their own styles apply. However, on a general view of the entire set as a general whole, some songs serve different PURPOSES. While one CAN parapara to, say, Forever Youn...

AKA, more ways to know how new at this whole thing I am. It appears to me that there are multiple KINDS of Eurobeat; not just by means of record companies and aliases, but actual USES and POTENTIALS of the songs. I'll proceed to prove my point... some songs seem more suited for certain kinds of thin...

Although the song isn't Eurobeat, the ED for Haruhi Suzumiya No Yuutsu (Soon arriving here in the states as "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya") has the main characters doing a dance that closely resembles Parapara. Also, an artist named DJ Bouche has remixed the ED (as well as other songs...

New song! It's poorly recorded and lacks vocals, but I've test-driven a new toy with this one (The Proteus 3 from E-MU, an "Earthy" sound module). A bit more regard for structure. www.myspace.com/travisodyssey I intend for the lyrics to be a duet with "Natasha". Given my experien...

"IT'S OVER NINE-THOUSAAAAAANNND!"

My least favorite must be DGBZ.

@Mesdoram: Once again, another great track. Once again, however, not quite Eurobeat. I do notice improvements in that facet, though; you have added the stabs on the upbeat, which flavors it somewhat better. Bass is also tastefully done. The problem is that it sounds more like trance with the same sy...

Merry Christmas all!

Or, if you don't celebrate that, Happy Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Yule/Festivus/Shopping Day/OH SNAP IT'S SNOW Day.

I'm open for composition and singing, although my schedule may prove hellish for both. I've actually got a rock band in the works this winter, but I might find the time to slip some vocal work into whatever gets tossed through the mix here.

Thanks for your comments zoupzuop2! I'll keep your suggestions in mind. You seem to have a good hearing for music fine-tuning. It might be an idea to market songs in the future somehow. Care to set up a label or something? *anyone interested at all?* Eh, I'll pass for now. Although I have made it a...

@Toni: The new version is definitely interesting, and an improvement over the previous. Good points: *Lyrics are actually pretty nice. *Music is well-done, no instances of potentially unintended dissonance. *Quite hooky, catchy. With some revisions, this could be a marketable song. Possible things t...

Oof! Glad you caught that! I totally disregarded the concept (forgot it, more) of structure when I wrote the song... I'd guess it sounds more like a Pop song with Eurobeat sounds than an authentic Eurobeat at this rate. Well, some of the parts are meant to have vocals, and the lack of them in the cu...
