My favs from the previews (in no particular order):

1. KEN LASZLO - LET'S DANCE
-I'm so glad his voice isn't pitched up, so we can appreciate his awesome vocal talent!


2. ROBERTA - BURNING IN THE RAIN

3. DAVID DIMA AND Nam - L.O.V.E

-Very nice riff. I hear more of David's voice than Nam's but I hope to hear them exchange singing the verses back and force on the full track.

4. MARI - I LOVE YOU FROM MY SOUL
-The return of Roberto Gabrielli with Roberto Festari! Can't wait to hear in full!

5. PAMSY - QUEEN OF BROKEN HEART

The first part of the riff sounds a bit like the riff from ACE - I'LL NEVER BREAK. Sounds really good so far!



Others that sounded good but need to hear them in full to make final judgement (in no particular order):

1. CHERRY - I'M DYNAMITE
2. LUKE - STREET FIRE
3. MANUEL - THE STALLION

-I enjoyed the riff very much!
4. MEGA NRG MAN - I'M BACK

My least favourites, but I might change my mind upon hearing them in full (in no particular order):

1. HOT BLADE - FACEDOWN
2. MEGAN - BANG MY HEART

3. CINDY - FALLEN ANGEL (heard it in full already, nothing too special).
4. ACE & SEASTAR - COME ALIVE
5. RICH HARD - NIGHT RIDER

Just gonna borrow drnrg's preview ratings here:

1. I LOVE YOU FROM MY SOUL/MARI
Right away I have a knowing I will probably have trouble with this track in full. The melody is great and all and Mari is a great vocalist for sure (can't believe FESTARI actually played a part in the melody, great job!) but those breathing sounds man! This song basically has the same issue with the Marika tracks on 207/209 which made the songs practically un-listenable for me. I personally forsee this song taking the same route. Great songs but .... sigh.
:cry:

2. I'M BACK/MEGA NRG MAN
Glad this preview does more justice for this song. The para para preview wasn't good at all. Marin is back!
8)

3. FALLEN ANGEL/CINDY
Not a very bad song but meh.
:???:

4. STREET FIGHTER/LUKE
"Touchdown" was one hell of a catchy song, this song has huge shoes to fill. I like what I hear but we'll see (Touchdown didn't have the best preview either so ...)
:)

5. BURNING IN THE RAIN/ROBERTA
Song has superb melody! I also love how the song has that kind of a calming, mystical feel to it, really nice! One of the best previews!
8)

6. NIGHT RIDER/RICH HARD
I LOVE the melody of this preview, but Richard, aren't you trying a bit too hard here? That said, I'm sold on this song just based on that insane melody alone!
8)

7. COME ALIVE/ACE & SEASTAR
Sounds kinda boring. Pretty neutral on this one.
:?

8. LOVE PEACE AND GUN/BLACK EVA
I could swear I hear Domino (Alessandra Mirka Gatti) on vocals. That being said, "Bed Girl" was one of the best female Hi-NRG tracks to come out recently, judging by the preview, this just doesn't measure up.
:???:

9. I'M DYNAMITE/CHERRY
Just like the Luke track, "Never Again", her previous track was hella catchy and this one has huge shoes to fill. I like what I hear, but whether or not this one will be a game breaker, we'll see.
:)

10. LET'S DANCE/KEN LASZLO
Hmm, not a fan of this preview. Sounds boring.
:???:

11. L.O.V.E./DIMA & NAM
Great to hear that this is more along the lines of aishu than those sappy lovey dovey eurobeat. Dima always has a flair for aishu and should be a pretty good follow up to the incredible "Firebird".
8)

12. QUEEN OF BROKEN HEARTS/PAMSY
Just like someone else said, this song has essence of "I'll Never Break" in it, and that's great! I don't know if this will top "All Over Me" but I like what I hear.
:)

13. THE STALLION/MANUEL
Just gonna copy and paste Luke/Cherry impressions here. "Temple Of Desire" was one of Manuel's best track, this one has big shoes to fill as well and doesn't even sound that impressive. Too "cheery" sounding.
:cry:

14. BANG MY HEART/MEGAN
I still haven't had enough of the two tracks on 239, but gotta give the females some time to shine. Pretty catchy chorus, looking forward.
:)

15. FACE DOWN/HOTBLADE
Pretty standard Hotblade, energetic eurobeat. Nothing to wow about, but nothing to complain about either.
:)
You and me like a fire tonight
Me and you 2 guardian angels
Now I feel your touch into my heart
A ray of sun~

Me - Marcin, Justin - Bonkers, Jimmy - MKwiakaku and still not sure whether Roger - Xiao, we all four managed to be presented finally in the booklet of current SEB Vol. 241. :grin:

A small apologize for Avex Trax, but looks like that's it, they published our names, message content sent to SEB Master e-mail, but the collections will go their only possible for now way to avex.jp/Eurobeat.

Pity, that cutting my message they made a typo... My bad luck. Can't understand why some single words have been cutted from the middle of sentences or why they couldn't correctly copy at least. :( :???:

Anyway - good ! 8)

My message is stupid because it was just some info about the photos. If I knew they'd publish it like this, I would've written something else. :')

Yeah, and there's a typo too.

Hope you guys love to have your pages on Discogs as "Liner Notes" credits :P

As for the teaser, this time around, Sunfire kicks ass. Dave had his hand on both tracks and it shows. Rich Hard and Ken Laszlo tracks are awesome. I think I never really enjoyed a Sunfire preview that much since... what... Into The Sunrise? That's 2 years, man. Also, Mega NRG Man really kick some ass, Meri too. SCP on top of it. Cherry & Luke are heh. Hi-NRG Attack is bearable. Need to hear more for the Dima track. Asia is HEH at best.

Will get the album myself next month. Hopefully. This month has been a disaster CD-wise... *facedesk*

Agree. "My name is", "I send you..."

But the rest of my message telling more personal things perchaps is deliberately cutted. So what could we do...

For newbees.

8) = Eurobeat perfection
:grin: = very enjoyable
:) = Nice. Could grow on me more.
:| = Expected something way better
:? = WTF
:cry: = so dissapointed


1. I LOVE YOU FROM MY SOUL/MARI
This one sounds great. It even has a bit of 80s freestyle melodies in the works. An incredible collaboration.
:grin:

2. I'M BACK/MEGA NRG MAN
It's great to have Thomas back in the running, but that chorus doesn't go with the synth riff; which doesn't sound very Mega NRG Man at all. I hope he is back for good to look forward to the next hit.
:|

3. FALLEN ANGEL/CINDY
I'll probably be one of the few who end up really digging this track. The flow of the synthesizers sound great.
:)

4. STREET FIGHTER/LUKE
This is perfect Hi-Energy Eurobeat to my ears. Luke= Hit after Hit.
8)

5. BURNING IN THE RAIN/ROBERTA
This one flows beautifully with her vocals in the melodic department. ..and gives me the "Walking In London" vibes.
8)

6. NIGHT RIDER/RICH HARD
Rich is really forcing his vocals here and he is no Gino Caria to carry out this Ultra aggressive wet dream of a song, but it's still an Ultra aggressive wet dream of a song.
8)

7. COME ALIVE/ACE & SEASTAR
fails to come alive. Sounds like they needed a lot of coffee to stay awake during this bore fest?
:cry:

8. LOVE PEACE AND GUN/BLACK EVA
too bad they stuck that SCP duet before this, cuz it would have been 5 perfect songs in a row. This one is Easily going to be one of my top tracks. Recognizable melody with great vocals hits the bulls eye!
8)

9. I'M DYNAMITE/CHERRY
Another Dynamite sounding preview from Delta. They really put attention to all soundworlds in thier productions.
8)

10. LET'S DANCE/KEN LASZLO
The best part; so far, are Ken's vocals. The synth riff leaves much to be desired. I want to love this, so I hope the actual song has more power?
:|

11. L.O.V.E./DIMA & NAM
Dima's songs always give me the feel they could have charted on Pop charts back in the 80's. This one like always; has that epic vibe to it.
:grin:

12. QUEEN OF BROKEN HEARTS/PAMSY
Love the title and it's surly one of Pamsy's better songs, but I need to hear more.
:)

13. THE STALLION/MANUEL
Parts of that riff sound very HRG Attack, but vocally and melodically; it's, all over the place. Chaotic, but not in a good way.
:?

14. BANG MY HEART/MEGAN
Once again the vocals and chorus sound great with each listen.
:grin:

15. FACE DOWN/HOTBLADE
Loving the synth riff on this song, but I have a feeling this song will go by too quick to really be able to absorb it's melody.

25 years have passed since Giancarlo Pasquini and Gianni Coraini started long-term cooperation in Eurobeat music industry in A.Beat-C. But they were known all over the world since 80's. A lot has happened during this period, countless tracks were produced, much has changed in the genre, artists followed their own path, but they have met again at the same studio where they begun, and fans can enjoy the Ken Laszlo comeback signed by Sun Fire team on new Super Eurobeat Vol. 241 from 19 October 2016 available in stores.

DrNRG, I'm also in love with Fallen Angel. That synth line just reminds me of 2007 3B.
