Nothing post-178 has been released yet on Juno, so I'm sure it's in the works.
I'll keep my list short (ie, not the entire catalogue), but I'd like to see:
Candy Taylor - Sweet Sixteen Girl
Leslie Parrish - King Of Heart
Paul Harris - Generation Of Love
Those are my tops.

You guys may or may not remeber not these, but I really would like extendeds of the first Mad Max tracks, No More Lonely Nights , Stay With Me and Don't Break My Heart. If I remember correctly that last track was Claudio Magnani on vocals. Anyway those are some very underestimated tracks that do wonders with the keyboards.

And the first 2 Mad Max tracks were by Jimmy Diamond!

Nah, I hate hyper techno with a fiery passion. It disgusts me that the same people who sing our fantastic eurobeat songs also perform this ugly genre of Spanish, yelling, and cursing.
I agree with you up to that part.

True... --wait. Does "Bitch is a Bitch" count? I liked that one, oddly enough. It almost sounds like a parody of American Rap.

Bitch is a Bitch is certainly Hyper Techno.

Stephy Martin is a brilliant vocalist, but that song is just trying to be good because of how bad it is, much similar to Akyr Music's other productions (Rainbow and High School Teacher anyone?). Her other songs there are solid, though.

What's that supposed to mean?

It's really corny and has lyrics that obviously aren't supposed to be taken seriously. Hi-NRG Atack tends to create nonsensical productions all the time, but tracks such as Rainbow and High School Teacher are just plain WHAT in terms of melodic structure and presentation.

What? Obviously you are not a big fan of Dead Or Alive's "You Spin Me Round" melody; which strikes me as odd, because many of HRG Attack and male Saifam songs ooze of that structure. In Rainbow's defense; I believe it's a very well put together song. Musically and Vocaly. I have no idea who is singing , but he does his best to capture the Pete Burns style.It perfectly captures the essence of tuff, sexy and Macho Eurobeat...and it should have stayed with it's original artist name of Dr. Gee. I can't get give Newfield enough praises for that song and it's Extened on Juno. I can't defend High School Teacher, because I never heard it, but if it sounds anything like Rainbow, then it gets my vote

I hate to question you again, but what do you mean by "WHAT" exactly? I don't even know if you're being scolding or endorsing.

You honestly don't understand what WHAT means?

Oh, I don't hate Rainbow at all, but it's still a really hilarious track to listen to. It's emphasizing so much to be catchy (it is), but since it's radically different from a more typical aggressive eurobeat track, it stands out in so many bizarre ways. Take for example the wacky intro, the vocals, and the uniquely sexually suggestive lyrics, and you've got something that completely redefines a "gangster"-type song.
As for High School Teacher, you can listen to its sample on iTunes. However, I
guarantee that it isn't anything like Rainbow. It's just as wacky, but in a completely different sense. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be the worst eurobeat song you've ever heard in your life.

I really enjoy Rainbow. It lends a rather more grungy sound to Eurobeat which is a nice change, yet it throws in the unexpected with the faux-operatic sounding vocals at the start and the manic pacing of the song.

Of course I know what the word means.
But if I say "This sandwich is what." What the hell is that supposed to mean to me?
And Rainbow owns you. Fiercely.
Woot, 500posts.
