Super Eurobeat 214

[drnrg]

Bonkers

I also like that the songs are slightly pitched up, so it has that chipmunk effect.

I can honestly say that you are the first member that I acualy see admit to liking the chipmunk effect. I'm sure there are many or else AVEX wouldn't have pitched up the songs so, but you are first to admit it.

Yeah, but that probably only had an influence in Dima's releases because DarkSky is so active around here. Not really sure the Dall'ora is on this site all that much...

aw Ditz, you are bursting my bubble man, You might as well just kick me square in the nuts(South Park reference)but U are right about Dall Ora.

Anyway, for what it's worth, if Jager is indeed the voice behind Mike Snap and Robbie Boy ect.. then I really prefer that Blast style over any new Jager material we might get. This is of course judging after the ear torture "What Daya Want From Me?" was. and to answer that question; more Hotblade and less Jager is what I want

oh my last prediction for the moment is that we should be getting that debut from Todd Plant, don't you think so?

Anyway, what other ones. We got a whole month of wishlisting

I 100% agree with this. I much prefer not only Jager/Mike Snap singing under Blast! but also Irene/Romi. I absolutely love all of Romi's songs at Blast!, but I struggle to enjoy her as a SCP artist.

I know a lot of people say Blast! and SCP have very similar styles, but I'm not so sure. There's something about Blast! that's more epic and impactful than SCP, especially as of late. SCP's songs these days lack the spark and originality they once possessed IMO.

Its the Avex control difference. On Farm, Alberto was free to do what he wanted and I always thought of Blast being a mix of A-Beat C with SCP sounds. While I adore SCP, you have to wonder what direction SCP (or any other label) would have taken if they released stuff through Farm. Though from what I hear, 214 will mark the return of some speedy stuff for all labels as 7A has requested the labels to put that style out more, in particular HRG.

That's an interesting little piece of info. Hopefully HRG won't completely abandon their slower style, but it will be nice to change things up again with the speedier stuff.

I agree that Blast! has a lot more impact and is far more melodic than SCP has been of late. I get the impression that for the main part, SCP has been told to "dumb down" their sound somewhat, but Set Me Free by Ace gives me the hope that they might still be able to pick up the pace again in the future

I second that, however if a faster style is makimg a comeback, then we might see Eurogrooves in the horizon.

There are some very interesting titles here...from Lolita, Eurodudes, and Speedmaster ft Cindy! Can I assume that that The Frisbees are Saifam? Any ideas what label has Eurodudes?

[Tiger]

Now that I think about it, Just A Dream might be a cover of Nelly / Just A Dream because Nelly is a rapper who was born in Austin, Texas =/

edit: it's another saifam cover. duh. http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/just-a ... d421386396

Elena preordering now

With my initial comments...

1. BECAUSE OF YOU / JAGER
- Awesome, love this track, knew it would be on here!
2. SKYLINE / LESLIE PARRISH
- For some reason, I've never really loved the Leslie Parrish tracks as much as the Cherry tracks - nice title though. Also, bizarre to have both and Leslie Parrish and Cherry track on the same album...
3. THE MAGIC I FEEL / APRIL
- Wow, had totally forgotten about April (I'm assuming it's the same April that did Hanami from SEB 196) - more j-pop inspired sounds to get the core audience interested?
4. RHYTHMYSTICALTYCIOUS / LOLITA
- WTF is going on with that title? Besides that, Gobbi's last two solo tracks have been melodic treats, so excited to hear this one
5. PASSPORT TO DANCE / EURODUDES
- Sounds very 90's Eurodance-esque, but since there are already two Saifam tracks I could be wrong... could it be the long awaited return of Eurogrooves? My instinct says no...
6. BOOM BOOM SCREAM / DOMINO & SCREAM TEAM
- Hyped to hear this - would of course be even more epic with Pamsy back on lead vocals for Scream Team though...
7. BABY GO / THE FRISBEES
- Interesting - I can't helps but think of the Saifam act The Zippers, but again I'm probably way off the mark...
8. BLACKOUT / NINE9NINE (Dima Eurorock, comments say)
- If this is rock, I won't be impressed. I want 14 new purely Eurobeat tracks - leave the other mixes for the 15th track! Still, interesting to see another new Dima alias.
9. PRETTY GIRL ROCK / SPEEDMASTER feat. CINDY
- Hmmm, a cover of a Keri Hilson song it appears - I miss having original Saifam tracks with those epic synth hooks
10. TOGETHER / CIAO CIAO
- Brand new off the press considering it doesn't even show in the current catalog. Has a lot to live up to considering Ciao Ciao's last mega-smash!
11. JUST A DREAM / MC BOY (comments talk about a rapper from Austin, Texas...?)
- If this is the Factory Speedo Mix, it's 180BPM!! But yeah, rap on a Super Eurobeat? I'll pass thanks...
12. YOU ARE IN LOVE / MICHELLE ROSE
- The other triumphant female alias from recent times returns to the fray - can't wait to hear this one!
13. TAKE MY LIFE / RICH HARD
- I'm really hoping this is more like Pirates than Tell Me Why...
14. NO MORE LOVE / CHERRY
- Here's hoping Clara can round off this SEB in style with another Yes I Will-style anthem!
15. DING A LING / JILLY (comments say it is healing version)
- I just can't imagine a "healing version" of this one at all...

A mixed bag, but my thoughts are definitely more positive than negative at this stage! Lots of new aliases to savour

EDIT: confirmed on Dima Music's FB page, they have only 2 tracks on this album. Doesn't mention what they are though...

[Vadim]

Apparent loitering with too much SAifam junk...BOOoooo!!!!

No obvious Sinclaire is id'ed.

Splendid to have our Delta back on the menue...

*Boom Boom sCream*....kiddy shout outs that our Doc will surely enjoy...

Some ppl complained on too much Dima....they got their wish...not much of him here at all...

[Nine]

Yay! Eurobeat is coming back to life! I'm hyped about this one.

[Brisk]

More Elena! Lets hope this trend continues where she is on multiple albums again but I'll remain doubtful...

Glad to see Delta back though, along with the anticipation Domino and Scream Team.
