The t-shirt was only a project, never been started the sale by Go Go's Music.

You can keep the T-shirt & I'll keep the cute Oliva ～

Oh Wow . very attractive indeed. can't wait to hear her debut single.

I doubt, she's a professional model, so she would sing long time ago if she would like or can.

It was just our offtopic about producing ambitions of Xiao and his female dream-team. Well Roger, you might think to be private photographer in Mantova instead.

You damn know I won't.

At least take a pic when it gets there!

If our posts on this small forum that's been around longer than social media could influence future SEB's ...

Wouldn't you venture a shot at it ?

Maybe. No promises.

Moving discussion from Initial D World Forum if you mind...

Xiao:

"Myself as an artist ~ I can't limit myself to only one genre of music, even though I absolutely love Italo, Euro, and Techno. Sometimes I draw inspiration from Pop, sometimes R&B, sometimes Rock, sometimes Dubstep, sometimes Eurodance, sometimes Trap, sometimes J-Rock/Pop, sometimes Latin, sometimes Los Panchos and of course sometimes Eurobeat."

I'm willing to new experiences with Eurobeat if there would be implemented something as Trance, Hard Trance, Progressive Trance and House. I was more familiar with these subgenres in late 90's and in the first half of 2000's.

I heard this and that how listed genres were rated overseas 20-15 years ago, but Eurobeat and exactly these all music kinds from the third biggest market, so Europe, always designated trends in many countries.

Today after opening US/Asia market and when Eurobeat is more popular outside of Japan, also mentioned types of Trance should be warmly welcomed mixed in Eurobeat.

I will say I enjoyed the samples and can't wait to get my copy. I will also say that I wish Eurobeat would return to some of it's cheesy and disco sounds.

I agree. You see, a lot of American people on Twitter & FB didn't like the 242 Preview, yet the majority of Japanese fans were highly thrilled & liked it. I personally loved it.

Their argument is that SEB is leaning towards a more Trancebeat sound and is losing the purity of the original Eurobeat sound.

Hahaha. So I hit exactly opposite with this Trance suggestion in taste of some current US fans.

It's a bit funny, what means the original Eurobeat sound ? Maybe Italo Hi-NRG? Maybe the 90's things like "Mickey Mouse" or "Night Of Fire"? Or the 2000's stuffs of experiments?

Well... The best answer is your below:

This POV is fundamentally flawed however, because Eurobeat is a dynamic volatile & progressive genre.

Whoever doesn't agree with this, is more old-school like me, even I like Trance influence, just won't buy and follow the series.

People will complain next years and who cares? Anyway the whole main sale will belong to the japanese community and they are these "right people", the first target of Eurobeat. Interpretations invented in America haven't the slightest importance. The world go round. We all, me in Poland have that opportunity to buy CD very easy than in the past and what's more to be happy ?

Usually these fans think of Time Records and Night of Fire. I agree that it was a sublime & golden age

Just one of many shorter periods of the golden hits. Next person will say the same about 2010 year... Opinion based on nothing more than own taste and when somebody started listened to Eurobeat.

Japanese surely would tell more. Being or not A.Beat-C. great fan, hard to expose same "Night Of Fire", many only SEB projects before the position of at least Dave & Domino, all artists performed live, their acitivty in Japan. Years earlier too. Fans remember longer and better the artists face to face, in other way names on tracklist, no matter how good.

Often case, Eurobeat was everything since 1988, still evolving, but people have "interesting" own imaginations outside of Japan.

So we should stay with the style from 2000's ? Too boring.

Well, remember that Renoir track? That was in no way a Eurobeat track. That was straight up trance to me.

[drnrg]

I'm old skool. Always will be. never will change. I don't like today's sounds. Not even on Poptart charts. Everything sounds the same, written by the same group of people and sung by the same artists. DELTA and HRG Attack are two of the most old skool soudning labels left. For me; almost everything they produce is instant gold.
