Or someone who this Sunday shouldn't be a lazy day. :')

I'm not as hyped as some as you are. Give me some awesome tracks first, because just names can't convince me in liking songs. :\

Just a heads up....the album is up. Just curious what you guys think

http://www.junodownload.com/ppps/produc ... 164-02.htm

Honestly it is not really spectacular like Blast, but they are good enough to warrant a purchase.

However, I can see that this label could definitely improve over time...as well as develop their own unique style)

(Sounds like they are trying to emulate Hi-NRG Attack and Delta)

Are the female vocals Melody Castellari?
The production kinda sounds like a comination of hrg and delta.

"We Are The Future Of Eurobeat" I could barely stand. It just sounds too forced for my money.
"You Make A Boom In My Room" wasn't TOO bad. The vocals weren't recorded too well, but they sound familiar. Synth riff was just tolerable.
"Cherry Blossom In The Park" sounds the most professional... except, it sounds like "Lovers In The Night". Literally. Like, the same vocalist.
"Go Godzilla" ALSO sounded like HRG in a way. Vocalist needed some more effects on his voice. I would not be surprised, at this rate, if Eurobeatfire were a side-label of HRG.
"Tokyo Wasn't Built in a Day", more "CBitP" fare. The riff was pretty heavy while the rest wasn't quite so much.
"Glance Around the World" sounds VERY much like fan-beat, and not in the best of ways. Not one I'm particularly fond of.
"Panik Fire" is EASILY the best of the lot. Vocalist reminds me of whomever sang "Baby Frankenstein".

...is this a secret side-project of Hi-NRG Attack?? It has striking resemblances in a lot of places; in fact, some of the samples are IDENTICAL, and some of the singers sound like they're off the HRG roster.
A lot's changed in the decade and a half I've been here.

I expected a bit more from this batch of releases. While the tracks here show a lot of potential in the label, the fact that they're brand new clearly shows. The vocal melodies are very difficult to hear and the song structures are pretty sloppy in some areas. Melody Castellari sounds okay as the female vocalist (although I'd prefer less pitching), but the guy has some of the lousiest pronunciation in any eurobeat singer I've come across. He seriously sounds like William Hung attempting to sing eurobeat and falls a bit flat when compared to stronger male vocalists.

The only songs that really stood out to me at all were You Make A Boom In My Room and the catchy Tokyo Wasn't Built In One Day, but even those could sound a little better with more work. Panic Fire is pretty cool too, but again the vocals just sound really out-of-place.

I have faith that this label will become much stronger with more development and experience, but at the moment they sound a bit too amateur imo to compete against the best labels from Super Eurobeat.

I really like "Go Godzilla" (it sounds soooo HRG - I really wanna hear Rimonti (re)sing it). XD Though, the whole album sounds really good. I might just buy it...

I really like this label! ... Of course they need to improve , but still , it's a purchase from me !

This is what Hi-NRG Attack should sound like IMO ... Not that i don't like HRG's actual beat (its actually my favorite label), but it seems like if it's old Hi-NRG Attack that evolved properly through time.

I get a strong impression this ''new'' label is simply a new branch of Hi-NRG Attack, judging by the writing style, the type of synths used and the vocalists. I'm thinking they are using different sounds and samples for this project?

This is what happens when you all get your hopes up too high XP

But I am interested in seeing what they produce next (I am sure that there will be more)~

Hmm it is bothering me A LOT that it sounds very similar to Hi-NRG with different synths. :o

Wonder if this means anything.

(Btw Tokyo Wasn't Built In One Day is actually very good. I like it :) )

Wow the alternate side of HRG Attack 8) I soundworlds are almost the same and Melody on vocals for the female tracks just makes it all the more so. The male vocals sounds a bit like Rikki One , but without the vocal effects. His accent is cool, but needs to inject more aggression onto his tone. I really don't hear any DELTA style here unless when you mention a song like Iron Man, which had an HRG Attack vibe to begin with. Anyway, you slice it, there is HRG Attack influence here, even those downbeat vesions have the vibe. I beg to differ with the lot of you, but these songs would sound right smack perfect on SEB series and Mr. Venuti has a bright Eurobeat future ahead of him.

1. Alcor - "We Are The Future Euro Beat" (extended version)
Probly the weak link of the bunch. Even the riff sounds half baked. The best melody for me is the one during the verses. The bridge and chorus follow thier own path and sound way off...and what's up with the artist name? Almost sounds like they are trying to attract the middle east with this and a few of the female names.
:(

2. Tatyana Sodapop - "You Make A Boom In My Room" (extended version)
Heavy HRG Attack vibe in this song. Even the title and artist name. I wouldn't be surprised if Luigi is a understudy of Rimonti or Accantino. This song is actually one of the strongest and catchiest. Nice swift and speedy riff
:)

3. Armana Laserdisk - "Cherry Blossom In The Park" (extended version)
And they get even better. The riff has a nice Ciao Ciao feel to it. The "yeah" right before the chorus. Infact the whole structure of the song sounds like early HRG Attack. Great song.
:)

4. Dynamotor Kid - "Go Godzilla" (extended version)
What a crazy HRG Attack alias if I ever heard one. One of my favourites without a doubt for its classic Eurobeat meoldy. I actually like the male vocals in this song. His sounding a bit more like a deep Rimonti, but still needs more aggression in his emphasis. The melody throughout the song sounds great and very HRG Attack. I could easily see this one appear on any SEB cd side by side with HRG Attacks entry.
:)

5. DominGo! - "Tokyo Wasn't Bulit In One Day" (extended version)
I'm glad this was not a take on any Domino style song. No Japanese lyrics to ruin the atmosphere. This one a very nice Italo feel to it as well and the chorus sounds more like HRG Attack than the previous female entries.
:)

6. Black No Blondie- Glance Around The World
A very odd alias. Reminds me so much of the one Lucky The Nice. Again we have another HRG Attack sounding song. The trumpets the synths all the sound worlds are identical and no label sounds like another. Not even ABeatC and Go Gos sound this identicle. Anyway this one goes hand in hand with Claudio Magnani's "Dance Around The World" and is also one of my favourites.
:)

7. Ikon - "Panic Fire" (extended version)
haha! They misspelled Ikon. It would look better as Icon. The song's title reminds me of songs that would easily appear on Victor Corps EuroPanic series. Here the male vocalist sounds even more aggressive than the previous entries and sounds like he is progressing vocaly. The song is also probobly my favourite male entry and if this isn't a sublabel of HRG Attack than Luigi Venuti had to borrow Live Music Studio to produce these songs. I hope these start appearing on SEB soon 8)
:)

back in the 90's TIME had a few sublabels including Macho Records and Downtown records , ABeatC had C&R and Saifam had FCF and Radiorama, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is indeed HRG Attack's way of getting more SEB space. I love fast and speedy Italo sounding riffs, so these songs are right up my alley. More HRG Attack style gots me hyped. A few even make my top 20 this week.

This is me hyped :!: :!: :!:

Beside two songs, I like that. It sounds a lot like Hi-NRG Attack at some point.

I may consider a purchase later.
