Wow, that a lot of sales! Though I think out of the 3 R35 releases I’m pretty sure the Jpop one sold the most (I have all three of the hahaha)

Hehe, I bought that avex R30 release. I think I only listen through it once XP

I went ahead and checked, and apparently Disco R35 went gold with over 100,000 copies sold. O_O R40 Eurobeat won’t come anywhere close to that, but 20k seems like the new threshold for success anyway.

Interestingly, the last time Avex revived their Disco 80′s series was a few months after Disco 35 came out, with the release of Disco 80′s ~R30 Euro Special~. It didn’t sell too well, though, so I wonder how their latest attempt to jump on the bandwagon will pan out.

Hmm, I was under the impression that oldies compilations always do pretty decent in sales. I mean, why else would they release the same songs over and over and over again. Those R35 compilations didn’t do half bad from my understanding.

Well, I guess we’ll see how avex’s around 40 compilation does which surprisingly has a few songs that don’t seem to be repeated over and over again.

Oh and of course those Shibuya and Roppongi compilations too.
