Exit Tunes presents Storytellers RPG
Release Date: 11/7/12
Price: 1905 yen
A new series from Exit Tunes. Originally titled “Exit Tunes presents Concept Beat” and then “Exit Tunes presents Social Network Music ~Concept #01: RPG~,” it looks like Quake have finally settled on a name. It seems that it’ll be a concept album with each of the arrangers composing a traditional RPG theme. Bonus items include a cell phone strap, clear file, and B2-sized poster.
Exit Tunes presents Utausekai feat. Kasane Teto
Release Date: 12/5/12

Party Style Weekend -Electro Dance Music Mix-
Release Date: 9/26/12
Price: 900 yen
Digital only release featuring electro/house songs from FARM’s stable of releases. Nothing new from their regular artists. Available on iTunes Japan.
Vocalo Cho Mix 39 feat. Hatsune Miku
Release Date: 9/26/12
Price: 1714 yen
This second Vocaloid compilation from EMI features a non-stop mix of 39 songs. It’s priced much lower than Vocalo Dance, so there are fewer bonus features. You’ll just get a picture label CD and cardboard sleeve this time around. Animate are offering a fan featuring the cover art if you order from them, while Tsutaya will give away a special clear file.
As with Vocalo Dance, this is being marketed as part of the Dancemania series. Both Vocalo releases are now part of the official discography as part of the “Vocalo Series,” just above the Utattemita releases.
EDM ~Electronic Dance Madness~
Release Date: 9/26/12
Price: 2190 yen
Previously known as Electric Dance Madness, this EDM (Electronic Dance Music) compilation will have songs from popular house/electro artists including David Guetta, Moby, Swedish Hosue Mafia, and deadmau5. I thought it would be part of the VIP series, but EMI have set up a completely separate page for it: http://www.emimusic.jp/intl/edm/

Golden Mix megamixed by DJ Roc the Masaki
Release Date: 10/17/12
Price: 1900 yen
New compilation from FARM Records mixed by the “Megamix King,” DJ Roc the Masaki. Looks like mostly repeats, but I’m hoping at least one new Daiki × ZK productions manages to find its way in.
