Super Eurobeat 179

[drnrg]

No No No zoupzuop2. Please don't get the wrong idea. The second part of the lyrics are totlaly made up by me. I just used the title(Which is real) to inspire. It was all a joke It is however a compliment if you really thought those lyrics were real.


I'M THE ONE WITH THE DIRTY MIND

[oresama-chan]

I've just previewd the samples.

03. DANCING TO THE MOON / MAGIKA
Daniela Galli on vocals. Superb!

04. BACH IS BACK / DANIEL & CHERRY
Very catchy chorus with a classical taste. Also the riff reminds me of
some Bach's ritornello.
Do Re Mi Fa So Ra Ti Do

05. FEVER & MUSIC / ERIKA
Elena on vocals. Sounds like Luca Pernici's famous track. lol

06. DANCING WITH A REPTILE / THREE OF SPADES
Um...Which label? Go Go's by any chance?

08. HEARTBREAKER 2007 / TOBY VALE
This time the vocalist is Christian De Leo ! Excellent !

09. LOVE IS LIKE A FEVER / DANY
Yes, Daniela Galli again. I prefer the Magika song for one, but this song
is good as well.

11. DON'T LET ME BE THE FIRST / QUEEN 26
Wow! Fantastic!!

12. SUMMER SKI / CHRISTINE
Well, Christine sings about summer ski (not sky) lol

15. RED LIGHT AND SEX / MEGA NRG MAN
Great !

16. FRONTAL IMPACT / DANIEL
Again Rizzi san's track. Hmm interesting succession of melody line.u_u

Replace 001 at the end with the track number you want to hear, e.g. 015

My thoughts:

01 Jungle Bill / Danger In Chinatown
- Catchy chorus - better than most out of HiNRG recently; nice enough sounding instrumental from what little you can hear (but I'm not a big fan of HiNRG's synths for those at the moment)

02 Irene / Let's Fly Together
- Considerably less sugary than Dancin' Baby - more like a sped-up form of Pamsy. Sounds quite nice, if not outstanding

03 Magika / Dancing To The Moon
- Nice vocals - otherwise nothing much to go on this early - sounds a little bland

04 Daniel & Cherry / Bach Is Back
- Not sure I find myself going for the way they're singing "Bach Is Back" there, but nice powerful synths underlying it.

05 Erika / Fever & Music
- Great vocals again - could be an interesting track with what sounds like a good instrumental from what little is there

06 Three Of Spades / Dancing With A Reptile
- Sounds like a Go Go's track, given the more 'thumping' A-Beat C sound - sort of sounds like Nuage, but not quite

07 Digital Planet / We Can Be Heroes
- So-so DP track - I'm not a big fan of this artist to begin with, and this isn't standing out in any significant sense

08 Toby Vale / Heartbreaker 2007
- Liking the synths and drums on this remake, could be a good one!

09 Dany / Love Is Like A Fever
- Nice chorus, good synths in the small bit of the instrumental - liking the sound of this

10 Norma Sheffield / Do You Wanna Fly
- Awesome! Norma returning to the more airy sound I enjoyed in some of her less recent material. Hopefully the rest of the song will match up

11 Queen 26 / Don't Let Me Be The First
- Stock Aitkin Waterman disco-fever again Queen 26 never lets me down on this front. After a disappointing last couple of songs, this sounds quite promising

12 Christine / Summer Ski
- It really is 'ski' - how unusual Like the general sound and melody on this one

13 Lucya / Follow The Rainbow
- Holy crap, this is one I am seriously waiting to hear in full length - exactly the kind of Lucya sound I was hoping for (curious that Avex is running Christine and Lucya back to back, though, as the songs are remarkably similar in style)

14 Powerful T. / I Want You
- Powerful T. gets a much more 'powerful' song for a change, for sure - less grating than the previous few attempts have been, but I'm reserved over how this'll turn out

15 Mega NRG Man / Red Light and Sex
- Wowsers, this is a return to form for another artist - not sure if this is A-Beat C or Go Go's - given how poorly A-Beat C have treated this name for the past few songs, I'm leaning towards Go Go's, but we'll see!

16 Daniel / Frontal Impact
- Much better than his debut song - has this guy usurped Kevin as Delta's frontline male?

17 Remy Panther / On The Road Again To The Show
- Less strong than HRG's opener, but I like the synths in the instrumental a lot better!

18 Franz Tornado & Mozzarella Girls / Sucka Sucka Pizza
- Average-sounding HRG track - can't say I find the chorus catchy, but a glimpse of the instrumental reveals a curious electric guitar in place of a synth? Hmmm...!

[valiant]

Wow this album sounds pretty neat overall. (Better than 178 at least)

Definitely glad that Avex gave Hi-Nrg Attack more space in the recent albums since they simply sound fantastic so far. Delta also sounds awesome overall (which isn't a surprise for the 170 era). Time also gives this album a pretty potent boost for power (especially the remake, simply incredible ). Like Dj Mike, I hope the Powerful T ends up being good...I been pretty disappointed with his arrival for a while . The only label I am pretty disappointed with is SCP, with its rather mediocre female tracks .

[Sadie]

15. RED LIGHT AND SEX / MEGA NRG MAN
Great !

Based off the clip alone so far, it does not sound like Marin... hm.
It is quite possible the chorus just has heavy voice distortion, but...

[the_ditz]

The three that really stand out from these samples are Dancer In Chinatown, Let's Fly Together and I Want You (Powerful T's best sounding track since Original Sin). I agree that Irene's track has a similar sound to Pamsy, which is probably why I'm drawn to it so much!

The others mostly washed over me at the moment, but it's so hard to tell from the 30 second samples...

[MesdoramElmdor]

Heartbreaker 2007 sounds kind of disappointing to me =[

[taQ]

one of the vocals in Dancing With a Reptile is definately Nuage

[oresama-chan]

Based off the clip alone so far, it does not sound like Marin... hm.
It is quite possible the chorus just has heavy voice distortion, but...

How strange. I do hear Tomas Marin. Elena Gobbi's backup vocals get in
the way a bit?
Oh, and the riff is the same as Into The Night.

[KitsuneStar]

Going from the samples, Let's Fly Together was easily the standout for me. The fact that there was a standout at all makes it seems like it'll be better than 178, to me. Heartbreaker 2007 could be interesting, but I'm not sure it's one of those songs that needed to be given the 'new-style' treatment. We'll see when it's released. There are a few songs here that I think have the potential to grow on me after a few listenings, but again, we'll see...

[#Infinity]

Here's my overall feedback for the album based on the samples:

1. Jungle Bill - Danger In Chinatown: (9.5/10)
Wow! Definitely one of the best Hi-NRG Attack songs released in a long time! This one actually stands out as furiously as a Euromatch track, and it'll be a true keeper once I get my hands on the compilation.

2. Irene - Let's Fly Together: (9.25/10)
Nice chorus! An SCP production with true energy. Lives up to SCP's usual level of greatness. Absolutely superb.

3. Magika - Dancing To The Moon: (6.75/10)
This was alright, but it seemed pretty airy and boring. It really just doesn't have the drive of the first two songs.

4. Daniel & Cherry - Bach Is Back: (9/10)
Seems like a reincarnation of Chemical Love, though it's not quite as groundbreaking as that song. It was still excellent, but the saiba needed more fury.

5. Erika - Fever & Music: (8/10)
Wow, Elena really sounds a lot like Christine here! But that's not a bad thing. I don't really think this cover was very necessary, but Music Fever was definitely one of the best Time tracks of the previous decade, and this just keeps it alive.

6. Three Spades - Dancing With A Reptile: (8/10)
This was pretty catchy. That song title is hilarious, but the song was quite smooth and just urges me to dance. I think its production could've been a little more firm, but I'll keep it!

7. Digital Planet - We Can Be Heroes: (4.25/10)
Mediocre. Just very sparse and airy, not to mention really boring. Not a song that I'd come back to listen to over and over.

8. Toby Vale - Heartbreaker 2007: (7.75/10)
Nicely produced. Remakes such as these all prove that Time was just a whole lot better years back. All-around solid and catchy, though I admit the chorus was a bit repetitive.

9. Dany - Love Is Like A Fever: (8.5/10)
Dany's vocals are slighly irritating imo, but I'm just glad to have an awesome Time song that isn't a remake! Hopefully a sign that this label is steadily improving!

10. Norma Sheffield: Do You Wanna Fly (6.5/10)
I don't know much about Norma Sheffield, but this is fairly pretty. I don't really want to listen to it again, though. It seemed fairly uninspiring to be honest.

11. Queen 26 - Don't Let Me Be The First (8.5/10)
Danceable and funky, just as I enjoy Delta and its diversity. The chorus was pretty decent, if not groundbreaking, but the song is catchy and all-around well-produced.

12. Christine - Summer Ski (7.5/10)
This continues to show the beauty of Christine's music, but I was a bit disappointed. Whereas Rain kept me happy and interested throughout, this track was very sparse and just kept making me wish it were faster. I got fairly bored.

13. Lucya - Follow The Rainbow (7.75/10)
Seemed fairly similar to Summer Ski, though I enjoyed this a little more. SCP can still do a lot better, though. Pretty, but not really memorable.

14. Powerful T. - I Want You (8/10)
Solid production, but Powerful T.'s voice is quite obnoxious. Give him a break. I'd rather hear Dave Rodgers sing this (he's not the best vocalist ever either, but he'd still fit better).

15. Mega NRG Man - Red Light And Sex: (8.25/10)
Not really my cup of tea, but this was quite good for what it was. It's at least energetic and firey, but it doesn't really get me going as much as other eurobeat songs do.

16. Daniel - Frontal Impact: (9.25/10)
Another standout of the album. Delta continues to shine with aggressiveness here, and everything came together quite marvelously.

17. Remy Panther - On The Road Again To The Show: (8.75/10)
I'm glad HRG is finally trying to be a bit more experimental with their productions as they are here. Not a major standout, but Garcon lives up to the very catchy production of the music, so I'm quite pleased.

18. Franz Tornado & Mozzarella Girls - Sucka-Sucka Pizza: (7.75/10)
Seems fairly average, but it's fairly enjoyable. The 'Sucka-Sucka Pizza's only made the song a lot cornier than more enjoyable, though.


Overall, I thought this was a definite improvement over 178, as Time, Delta, and Hi-NRG Attack all did a great job in general. This should be one of the better SEB's of the 170's, though it does seem to lack diversity. I sorely miss Boom Boom Beat on SEB, and I doubt they'll ever return, considering Go Go's Music has pretty much replaced the gap they once inhabited during the 160's.

[SirSlugma]

They ruined Heart Breaker

[MesdoramElmdor]

They ruined Heart Breaker

Pretty much agree.

[jeurobeat]

I've just previewd the samples.

03. DANCING TO THE MOON / MAGIKA
Daniela Galli on vocals. Superb!

09. LOVE IS LIKE A FEVER / DANY
Yes, Daniela Galli again. I prefer the Magika song for one, but this song
is good as well.

I'm surprised you haven't left a message in her guestbook yet

[drnrg]

Wow these samples are just the appetiezer to what is sure to be a delicious entree of a Cd. I'm liking a solid 90-95% of the cd. HEARTBREAKER FOREVER!!! I'll score 1-5 based on chorus.

TIME:
1. Magyka- Dancing On The Moon- Great title, Beautiful Melody and Fetching vocals. I'm definately listening to TIME=5

2. Toby Vale- Heartbreaker- HOT DAMN! It's finally here! Christian sounds great. The music is kicing A** all over theplace. Aggressive and tru to it's original. This will be my number one song of the year. =5+ 1000,000

3. Erika- Fever & Music- OOOWEE! Sergio Dall 'Ora does what he did with Helena's "Your Love Is Melody" again. The melody is "Music Fever", but sounds just as great sung by Elena!=5

4. Dany- Love Is Like A Fever= Music Fever again. This TIME in the main hook. Could this be an ode to D.J. Luka Pernicci. Daniella's second showing is also a BOMBA!=5

HRG Attack:
5. Jungle Bill- Danger In Chinatown- Fast melodic Eurobeat at it's best!=5

6. Remy Panther- On The Road Again To The Show- Last TIME Remy's voacls were Gianni Corraini, but Nick Festari sounds better than ever. This one is equally great!=5

7. Franz Tornado & Mozzarella girls- Federico sounds so great, he makes the song all the more fun. I'm one half Italian and ABSOLUTLY LOVE PIZZA so this one strikes a tasty chord with me. =5

DELTA:
8. Daniel & Cherry- Bach Is Back- Marco Rancati is back & sounds great with Clara. I love the concept of this song. Though I really just hear them singing "Back Is Back" =5

9. Queen 26- Don't let Me Be The First- I quote Oresama " Wow! Fantastic!! " You hit that one on the Nail buddy! Where is that melody line from? =5

10.Daniel- Frontal Impact- Marco sounds like all DELTA's vocalists fused into one...and that hook; WICKED! Just the voice DELTA needed to push up thier latest productions.=5

ABeatC/Go Go's(since I can't tell them apart)
11. Mega NRG Man- Red Light & Sex- I allways like Thomas vocals when they sound more forced into the melody. This one is SHOCKINGLY great. Gives me "Sex All Over The Phone" memories!=5

12. Powerful T.- I Want You- Simple Title, but very impactful in the melody. Power T. sounds better than he has in a long while and the synths sound more Hi NRG! That's Hi Energy, not HRG Attack.=4

13. Norma Sheffield- Do You Wanny Fly- I like the added male vocals and Norma sounds good as allways. The song will need some getting used to, but I like the initial impression it gives.=3

14. Three of Spades- Dancing With a Reptile- So who is the third Go Go Girl singing? I figure that's why the strange title?=2

15. Digital Planet- We Can Be Heroes- The title is so close to DELTA Force's "Heroes". Even the chorus, but the song itself is miles away from it. Plus I think it uses a DELTA melody in a bad way.=1

SCP
16. Lucya- Follow The Rainbow- I allways like Lucya songs. This one is no acception. I even hear a similar melody line to "Beautiful"=4

17. Irene- Let's Fly Together- I can't tell the difference between this and an "X" ABeatC song. "Dancing baby" was so much better.=2

18. Christine- Summer Ski- That does it. I'm writing off the alias Christine forever. She has convinced me that she will never make another "Crazy Generation" again. This is just sad uninspired music to me.=0


All and all this cd sounds tasty at it's first impression. TIME blows me away!
