Guitars in eurobeat

Post by StrikeXero » 27 Aug 2011, 06:21

Hey everyone new member here, I first started listening to Eurobeat back when I was 15 because of Initial D. I haven't head it in a long while until I recently came across some Eurobeat cd's I burned back then. Anyway after I heard some of them I remembered how awesome these songs were. So I was wondering, if anyone can name some songs that have guitars in them. I want to do some guitar covers, right now the only ones I remember were Wild Reputation 2005, Power of Sound, Final Game, and Spark in the Dark. If anyone could give some suggestions that would be great, thank you.

Guitars are a big part of the Eurobeat structure. You can find them in all of Dave Rodger's songs. Here are some other examples. Robert Patton- Big In Japan, RCS(Rodgers,Contini,Sinclaire- Black Jack Fever, The Snake- Queen Of Mean, Frank Torpedo- Made For Loving You,Mike Hammer- Heartbreaker,EDO Boys- My Rock Is For Japan,Toby Ash- Bad Boy Blue,Thomas T.- High Satisfaction. Those are some of my favourites, but there are tons more.

Don't forget "Speed Of Light" by The Snake. This is my favorite The Snake song ever!

My favorite was the guitar solo in "Pilot is the Hero"...sadly it wasn't put in on the radio edit, but glorious in the extended version!

I've always loved Nick Mansell's tracks that are heavy on guitar usage, especially Mission Impossible & Burn Me Up. :)

Usually, most songs performed by Dave Rodgers have some sort of guitar usage in them. Also, any sabi to a song by The Snake uses guitars.

Sometimes, guitars can be implemented marvelously even in female tracks, as well as male tracks. I absolutely love the guitar riff + solo in Christine's When 'U Smile, from SEB 176. It breathes in a ton of life into a tune that's rather simple, yet super-sweet. In my opinion, that track is the most underrated eurobeat song of all time. Nobody else besides me seems to remember it, maybe because it was overshadowed by her previous track, Viva La Noche, a couple albums earlier (even though that really isn't even my favorite outing of hers). I don't know. I just think it's really cool to hear something so different from the norm that works so beautifully all the same.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Sun City :?

Although it's pretty obvious, the new eurock songs have guitars in them as well.

I did wanted to pick a song from the Jennifer Batten collabs, especially Fly or Sun City, but I ultimately went with the later songs as a starting point for the OP since these songs are rather old.

I also didn't mention the eurocks (excluding rock remixes on SEB) because they are not very easy to gain access to, so unless the OP is a native Japanese, I just left it out entirely.

Any track from SCP artist The Snake. Any track featuring Stef Burns, Jennifer Batten and Kiko Loureiro @ AbeatC Records.

Also if you're in to J-euro a lot of DJ Command tracks have guitar solos in them like Uchuu Senkan Yamato, Ai Wo Torimodose, Mazinger Z, Katayoku no Icarus, etc. I've also noticed that Sugano has been laying on the guitars heavily too recently.
