Testing Bandcamp? They used Bandcamp for a few years now.
Maybe they get less money through Bandcamp? This would be sad, especially because Bandcamp has a "pay x Euro or as much as you want" as an option.
That's probably it considering Euro Kudos 9 and after is not available there. They stopped after Vol. 8.

From Eurokudos 1-8, is there any with any file other than music inside?
They also sell in USD$ instead of €. And actually, I think the buyer pays the Paypal fees, I think. I paid a flat 10$US instead of 9.90$US, and it came as 13.44$CAD. Yesterday, to have 10$US, you had to pay 12.91$CAD. So... 10$US + (3.4%+25¢USD) = 10.60$USD. 10.60$USD = 13.67$CAD (right now). SO, the possibility is very well there, depending on the rates that were effective yesterday by Paypal that we do pay PayPal fees and not SCP.
My guest as to why SCP is not selling the newer Eurobeat Kudos on Bandcamp (at least for right now, they acknowledged the demand for Bandcamp) is that bandcamp allows for anybody to stream the tracks in full without paying and anybody who just want to listen and don't care about quality will just be satisfied with that; they'll just have to switch the album to another once it's done. While on the other platforms, they usually have either limited samples or, if they are in full (like Junodownload), it's a pain in the ass to listen, discourgaing anybody who "just wants to listen". The other streaming options are behind a paywall so SCP gets monthly revenue from them (I don't know how it works exactly though). I know that Spotify has a free option but I think it's limited in some ways. I can't tell because I'm not on Spotify (*a not surprised gasp from everybody*).
However I have a question: is it possible to limit the time of listening on bandcamp, like what we find on iTunes, deezer etc ...
Because actually a lot of listening streaming which does not necessarily encourage the purchase.
thank you for your reply"

Either it has something to do with Avex legal mumbo jumbo .. not getting streaming revenue on BC like in Spotify as Lebon mentioned .. or just marketing to drive up demand for a limited edition album?
SCP still has a few other Hyper Techno songs they've yet to release .. like Shoot 'em Up / Dark Evil feat. Tanith
.. on Techno Kudos Vol.2 perhaps?
But I agree with Lebon .. I'm really grateful that SCP reads this forum & took our opinions tangibly .. tangibilmente! ☆BOMBA Stefano ~ mille grazie!

I used to think something really dirty when Ennio raps:
" FLY TO A CITY LIKE A VIRUS IN A PC IN THE MIDDLE OF A KISSY YOU CAN SEE MORE FUN "
.. on Mr. Fang ♪

The lyrics on these are fantastic just like eurobeat songs.
If they'd release the rest (and even keep on producing more techno) that would be sooo awesome~
Vicious Angel tonight, tell me what you're burning to feel now!
It just feels so energetic.
OK, so the difference in time between the version of Runaway by Nick Mansell on Maharaja Night Euro Fire 25 and Eurobeat Kudos 10 is... substantial. In The Maharaja Night version, and by extension the vinyl version...?, has a whole verse missing in the first part of the song. This is not a repeat stuff or anything. Happy that this finally see the light of day.
