Eurobeat Prime :: Forum

Four days away. here is what I think of these great sounding previews. BTW, is the first TIME avex posts previews before aa cd release? Finally they got it right.

Anyway, I'll just mention them in the order they appeared on the vid.

2. HotBlade- Showdown (SCP)
I'll probobly play the heck out of it for the first couple of weeks, but then it will iether become my favourite Hotblade song or fizzle away among better songs depending on its actual legnth. Damn good synth!


14. Leo River - Far From The Light (GGMs)
That is one hell of a great sounding Hi- NRG synth riff. I hope the rest of the song delivers. Should be a great comeback for Leo.


6. Gordon Jim- I Wanna Run Away (HRG Attack)
This one could easily be my favourite song on the disc. Is this Mike Hazzard or Cyborg? I love them both, but Mike has a special place in my heart for his Italo/SAW inspired songs from Asia records. A new(veteran) vocalist for HRG Attack is always great news. Super excited for this track


13. Futura - One More Night (Sun Fire)
I predict this track to become my guilty pleasure on the disc. Instantly catchy with addictive vocals. What will the neighbours say when I sing along to this song?:!:


8. Eliza - One Shiny Day (Delta)
Great sounding synth riff. The chorus has a Stephy Martini feel to it. I love that last note she hits.


3. Pamsy - Crazy & Free (SCP)
Don't think I'll be blown away? I fear a 4:00 minuit filler track here. Sorry I'm not a Pamsy fan unless she sang with Scream Team.


10. Norma Sheffield - Take Me Into Your Golden Dream (Sun Fire)
I'm not feeling this Norma preview. The slower BPMs just sound awkward. I might pass on this one all together?I'm glad Im enjoying the Futura duet much more.


4. Manuel - Manga Style (GGMs)
I love Manuel's heavy accent. Animi related theme songs are ok in my book. I feel weird singing along to them, cuz they make no sense, but this one has a wicked sounding synth riff. I like that.


12. Dave Rodgers - Money Money Money (Sun Fire)
Tied as my favourite preview. Its super catchy and its Dave Rodgers vocals. What more can one ask for?


11. Martina Dry -Only One (HRG Attack)
Could easily be my prefered female sung track. That chorus is full of life. Can't wait to hear more.


7. Luke & Cherry - Something Beautiful (Delta)
A duet that isn't from Sun Fire for a change. Always love the Luke and Cherry duets. This preview takes me back the the early 2000s.


8. Tipsy & Tipsy - Whenever I Dream On (Saifam)
It's TIME to retire Tipsy and Tipsy name. bring back Milk and Coffee just to give me the illusion of actually getting a different artist. The song I heard on Juno and its borderline passable.


9.Billy The Butcher - Too Tan (HRG Attack)
I knew HRG would use new vocalits for these song. Allready they are pushing ahead above the rest. Arabian soundworlds are not far from Russian so I think of "One Night with bazooka Belly Dancers" and "Camel Man" among many others. Once again I'm loving the vocals.


15. Fastway- Been A Bang (SCP)
Don't know why this preview is getting such a bad rap? Sounds like the best SCP preview of the lot to me. Fastway is Still a BANG after all these years!


1. Dejo - Wilder faster Louder (Sinclaire Style)
Almost forgot about this one. The one sole Sinclaire tyrack sounds worthy to close on a mighty great sounding group of previews.


FIVE previews send me to my perfect Eurobeat zone, but alopt of the rest made me just as happy. Should be a great cd for a new Eurobeat year.

Am I the only one that feels that the Manuel track sounds like a Capaldi Delta track?

As for the new Billy The Butcher vocalist, ask Franz Tornado and Luigi Stanga the real name of the Cyborg vocalist and the new HRG male singer. They're accessible on Facebook. I don't think they're the same due to the inflection but that might just be the way HRG had them sing compared to Dima/Luigi.

The soundworlds don't match DELTA style. Unless they are trying to deliberately creat an SCP/GGMs sounding track. I wouldn't mind Manuel singing a DELTA song, but its highly unlikly.

That's definatley worth looking into. thanks.

i think drnrg and i found out that i was mistaken totally new vocalist

I've been trying to pinpoint the accent that the new HRG Attack vocalist has and no matter how I spin it it sounds like one of those stereotypical latin american accents.

Aaaaand it's pre-ordered!

Where from? All the pre-sale copies on cdjapan are gone! Guess I'll have to pre-order and wait for the next copies to come in.

Well, from CDJapan, even if it wasn't a "real pre-order". But it doesn't matter for me if they ship the album one day before release or a few days later, I have to wait two to three weeks anyway.

Hotblade, Fastway and Dejo are the only ones I really got into based on these previews. I really like Too Tan's riff, but those vocals are bwaaghh

Too much tarncey tarnce overall for me

Just the sound of it reminds me of a Capaldi track. It is a GoGos track but it kinda reminds me how Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Tonight by Annalise sounded like a Roby Arduini track but it's A-Beat C; a track that doesn't sound like the label it's from.

I can 100% confirm that HRG Attack has a new vocalist for Gordon Jim and Billy The Butcher and this is only the begininng. According to Rimonti he is a GODsend becuase not every vocalist has the talent to sing in Eurobeat form. The initials F.M. will soon become a force to be reckoned with in thier new writing team. This is all very exciting news for all HRG Attack fans.

Too much trancey tarnce overall for me

I only got that vibe from Norma and Pamsy's previews. The Two I really didn't care for. I'm curious to know what other songs gave you that Transy vibe.

If anything, I'm more than pleased to finally have a new vocalist at a label that has predominantly stuck to the same crew for several years now. Excluding Stefania Martin's one-shot appearance on Get My Venus, I'm pretty sure the last time HRG introduced somebody new to their lineup was with Laura Tartuferi around 2004.

@ infinty. Stay tuned. there will be a few changes in production team and vocalists and music style as well. big year for the label.

Doesn't the riff to Crazy and Free sound a lot like Crazy On Emotion / Ace?
