Exit Trance presents Speed Anime Trance Best 19
Release Date: 9/4/13
Price: 1905 yen
HOLY CRAP. It took them until 5 days before release to finally reveal a track list, but maybe it’s because they didn’t want to spoil the surprises. First of all, the Dizzi Mystica alias returns to Exit Trance with 4 tracks after skipping SATB 17 and 18 (though technically he was still present on those as Disco da Gama). The kinoto alias also comes back from retirement with a new song, though apparently Flash back Dominant and plazma were his aliases, so he hasn’t really been gone, either. MK represents with 4 tracks, while Booing Day features with 3. Hommarju gets a bum deal with only 2 tracks, thought Icon gets it worse with only 1. A new artist by the name of airportexpress also makes his debut.
Now, here’s the biggest shocker of them all: Acid=Stone Valley is back! I had to refresh the page a few times to make sure I wasn’t seeing things, but apparently Acid=Stone Valley will indeed be making his glorious return to Exit Trance after being M.I.A. since 2010. It’s only a single track, but it’s exciting to see him back as he was an old favorite of mine. I can’t help but wonder if Quake are purposely going back to their roots by heavily featuring old aliases and artists. Hopefully they make SATB 20 a proper anniversary release by asking back even more old ET artists.
The selected songs are mostly a good mix of recent anime offerings. I was admittedly rather perplexed to see “Uchuu Senkan Yamato” since it was already covered on one of the R25 albums, but apparently there was a recent sequel series that features a new arrangement of the old theme.
Oh, and why only a 1:15 edit for one of Dizzi Mystica’s tracks? The entire album clocks in at around 1 hour and 10 minutes, so surely they could’ve given it more time. 🙁

Im surprised to see Bavil as a vocalist. Havent heard him since Tokusatsu 2.

Wow. This is a brilliant looking list.
Yozu, 405, Bavil? Even old vocalists are returning.
Acid=Stone Valley is the best surprise of all though.

The full version of Aku no Hana -Nakamaru Sawa- is only 1:57.

Damn, that’s a short edit. Samples sound really strong so far, though. I forgot how much I missed Acid=Stone Valley’s style.

I’ve listened through the whole album now, and it’s really great. Not as exciting as some past releases but it’s nice to have some more male vocals than usual.
I have no idea how long the original version of track 12 is compare either.
