I just checked out the new F.C.F.- What a crap title for an awesome song. Does that title have anything to do with that Initail D series. I'm guessing cause of the 'D? reference. It does totally have Tekno Samurai vibes all over the place, but also very F.C.F in the intro and bass sound. Think "War Games", but a lot easier in the melody. I think I like this one more than Tekno Samurai ,because the riff is played on fast Keyboard style while Tekno had a more Lolly O riff.

Sing is ok. I'm not exactly falling over head for that style, as it is not my perfered eurobeat ssound, but it's still nice enuff. For the record, I'll take the Femminucce's original any day over this one.

Actually, D1 Grand Prix, or Dance no. 1 Grand Prix, is an event at [someclub] in Japan. There are a few Gazen Parapara cd releases named after this event, and a new one is coming out soon. (:

No Initial D there. (:

I guess Saifam meant this rather than a club event :P

1335 Radiorama/Oh World
1336 Danny Rock/ Heartbreak

Both excellent songs.

RadioRama- Oh World. This isthe better of the two for me. It sounds like Lolly O style, but a bit slower in the bpms. That is exactly the touch that gives the song it's magic. The Dum Dum Didi Didi Dum add a nice extra touch, but never sounding childish. The chorus is sung wonderfully in a 90's Eurobeat fasion. Perfect perfect song. 8)

Danny Rock- Heartbreak . Another great addition to the saifam catalogue. The style is much like Love Line and it is also slightly slower in bpms. This new direction that Saifam latest releases is taking is a good developement, because one can really admire the different soundworlds to the fullest extent. Good vocals and strong melody make this one a winner.

I thought Heartbreak was better, though it's hard to compare the two since they're quite different styles that'll appeal to different people. They both were pretty good though.

Also, next in the catalogue will be ARD-1337, lol. Random observation.

I successfully managed to download Oh World from Saifam, but I've gotten no luck trying to purchase multiple tracks at once. Don't know why the payment keeps getting denied even though the same basic information was inserted before downloading. :???: Is there any idea over this?

Have you tried e-mailing Saifam? They've been very lax in replying lately but you never know.

Too bad ARD-1337 didn't live up to its name. :( Kiss Me Divine was really good though.

Yeah, I e-mailed them, but I suspected it would be more worth posting my situation here in case anyone else is undergoing the same thing. I think it just has to do with the amount of information being transmitted overseas that just isn't all that reliable.

I think Let Me Go sounds fairly good, actually. It sounds as if a little more could've been done with it, but it still has a pretty nice melody.

ARD 1339 Lara/ Baby You'll be Mine (Vibes Energy mix)
ARD 1340 Coo Coo/ Vamos A Bailar (The Factory Team Remix) <Now this is a wierd one)

Mmm, nice! Both tracks sound like keepers imo. You'll Be Mine has a beautiful soothe to it that causes it to sound quite similar to the excellent Fading Love, with a beautiful chorus and typical quality vocals from Melody.

Now Vamos A Bailar is something really interesting. It's at least Asia's most distincitve production since Alamo 2 years back. I know it's Spanish-themed, but it gives a very similar vibe to the Russian-based Mad Cow songs from Hi-NRG Attack. That melody is pure cheese at its best, and with a cool bridge following the sample's synth area, I can definitely say that the full version makes the whole package sound even better. Asia has honestly not renewed their sound much at all since Hey You Boy and Avalanche about 100 songs ago, but with the variety they're able to produce, I don't really think it's much of a problem.

I'd love to download both of these once I have the chance; too bad I'm still stuck with 1 download per order at the moment. Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this problem?

Ugh, beaten to it. :(

Is that song sung in part by Roberto Gabrielli? That would make it his first eurobeat song in nearly 10 years (his last track being Lupin)!
