Please don't bump this unless a new release is stated :-x .

Got my hopes up that there are new tracks. Besides, your comment has been stated elsewhere dozens of times.

Yeah, same. Just a tip, it's nice to have members who post and contribute a lot to the boards, but I think you should cut down just a bit and focus instead on the more prominent discussions instead of constantly try to put up new topics.

I thought it was a new singer, I really cant identify her to any other known hi-nrg attack voices. Its such a relief to hear some new and mature female vocals on the label, with songs like Hot Gal and I Am Your Barraccuda. Its a part of Hi-Nrg I had missed since the Euromach years :cry:

They really only pitch up the vocalists because it apparently better markets a Japanese audience. Melody's only truly pitched up HRG song was Gucci Girl, though ironically that was also one of her best, probably because it was absolutely used at the right time. I'm annoyed that it (as well as her Nikita Jr. tracks) got outshadowed by Shadows In The Night, which pretty much holds my title as the most overrated HRG production ever, as it had absolutely nothing special or catchy about it to make it stand out in contrast to the label's other numbers and felt more like a standard faire than anything else. It disappoints me that fans didn't recognize Melody's prominence when she was far more tallented than R. in general (though at least she's completely loved by Saifam!).

Monica's songs in general sound rather tedious when pitched up, probably because the label uses it too much with the more romantic productions. It sounded great in more energetic faires such as Hot Gal and Happy Snappy Valentine, but it just sounded really cheesy and non-dynamic in other tracks, mostly some of her Bazooka Angels releases. She has a great voice, but due to sellout reasons, Hi-NRG Attack decide not to present it to the fullest. Motel California from ParaparaCool, Vol. 1 was a complete jackpot imo; the song was absolutely beautiful and extremely effective, as it was one of the only instances in which her voice was at regular pitch. I want more songs like that.

Well, if "Motel California" was Monica in her regular voice, than I doubt "You Kiss My Lover" was her; maybe it's one of those nameless, faceless singers.

Livemusicstudio finally updated their catalogue! :wink:

Looks like the Russian theme is still present, and aliases such as Cindy and Garcon are starting to take firmer control over the label's releases. Should give a good sense of what's to come in the near future. I'm really interested in hearing Fast Food Bikers by Garcon! ^^

Good job. I checked it out and found a lot of promising titles. After a short hiatus, they are still the only label that really keep us posted on thier upcomming material. I wish other labels would follow this path? I don't mean sh**ty search enjines. I mean a straight forward catalogue 8)

Nick Turbo- Tokyo Strike Force
Remy Panther- Sex around the fire
Ciao Ciao- Bang bang crashing of the boom boom ( I wanna hear this badly)
Cindy- Russian gangster
Jeff Driller Pet-o-man( does this title have to do with Pikachu cartoons? It reeks of Japanese animation toons) :P

Actually they all sound awesome. I'm psyched!!! :!:

I would be in heaven if the label got up and finally started releasing these newer songs on their iTunes compilations. There's seriously way too much unheard gold lying around their catalogue's newer numbers for them to just be ignoring it all and instead focusing on repeating all of their older tracks.

From Live Music Studio's website:
Coming Soon: DJ Lobotron - Lobotronic Hammer(album). Actually it's already on Juno and iTunes. Anyone heard of this guy? How is this artist connected to Hi-NRG Attack? It's not even Eurobeat, it's trance. Kind of cool, anyhow.

It must be HRG's way of getting away from avex :( The songs are free on Juno while $1 on iTunes o_O, although the trance isn't really that good...i can tell they're new at it ^^

Why can't they just start releasing more tracks again? They've been completely quiet/lazy since the beginning of the year; maybe they're just giving some leeway to Delta and Led in the meantime before they can really stand out again?

Man, that Trance stuff is pretty unusual for HRG. It's a nice try, and they even have a few fairly good ones, but it's clear that their best work lies in Eurobeat. Maybe there's some negative emotions they're not willing to channel into Eurobeat? To be honest I think it'd be kind of cool to hear some "angry" Eurobeat from HRG, and I don't think we the fans would think any less of LMS for trying it out, even if it was just on iTunes to start.

I regret buying Lobotronic. In the immortal words of AVGN, "It fucking sucks so much fucking suck it fucks." Get off your asses, HRG and get back to releasing Eurobeat to us.
