This is probably coming a bit late for some, but I was just so surprised to be suddenly reading the review for Shanadoo's single on a finnish online music site that I decided I'd post this here, seeing it's almost phenomenal to be hearing even something remotely linked to Eurobeat over here.

For the people who don't know what Shanadoo is. It's a project by David Brandes who was the mastermind behind E-Rotic back in the good old days. And Shanadoo is a 4 member girlband from Japan doing E-Rotic covers.

So where Eurobeat comes in the picture is that three of the members used to be known under the name Vivace. Also the videos include ParaPara Coreographies which is a interesting thing to see over here from telly. Really cheery material, even though their first single is the same thing that Hinoi Team did a while ago already, yet Shanadoo sounds a 100 times better:

Shanadoo wins. I had King Kong preordered like a month before it was out and I have My Samurai already pre ordered :)

Shanado sounds much better than Hinoi Team, by far.
