Maharaja presents Global Mix Vol. 2 -EDM Best Hits-
Release Date: 7/30/14
Price: 1852 yen
Huh, for some reason I thought the first one was just going to be a one-off release, but it looks like Avex will continue the Global Mix series this July. Volume 1 was an interesting mix of Saifam, Power Music, and Avex artists, so I’m assuming the sequel will be the same.

Dconstructed -EDM Meets Disney-
Release Date: 6/25/14
Price: 2800 yen
Well, this is a little weird. This third EDM Disney compilation, due in June, is mostly repeats from the first two CDs. I guess the success of Electronic Disney Music and the global EDM phenomenon prompted Disney to release an EDM compilation in the US. Dconstructed was released in the US in April, both in CD form as well as a digital download, but the Japanese version will apparently have two bonus tracks. I wonder if they’ll release Eurobeat Disney in the states now?
New songs not featured on the first two CDs include an Armin van Buuren remix of “Let It Go” and a Yogi remix of “Roar.”

Best Hit Disco – Playback 90s
Release Date: 4/30/14
Price: 700 yen
Well, now I’m glad that I procrastinated on buying a Recochoku card for Dance! Dance!! Dance!!! Star Music just released a new iTunes album featuring full versions of the 90s covers that Threemason and Delaction did for the Dance! Dance!! Dance!!! album. It’s 20 songs total for 700 yen, and includes covers of Dancemania favorites like “Dub-I-Dub,” “Hero,” “Butterfly,” and other 90s dance hits. I’m still holding out hope for full versions from Meganimation.
Speaking of Star Music, it seems that they’ve been running a monthly trance party at T2 Shibuya recently called “Ultra Trance.” Recent guest DJs have included J-Trance legends like DJ Kaya, Remo-con, and DJ U*Hey? I’m hopeful that they’ll release an Ultra Trance digital compilation in the future.
