Release Date: 4/21/10
Price: 1905 yen
DJ Yoshinori makes his triumphant return after an almost year-long absence. The lead song is a Yoshinori remix of Cascada’s “Evacuate the Dancefloor.” He did an incredible job with “Runaway” and I’m expecting good results again. Also of note is a DJ Yoshinori remix of DJ Kenny’s “Blue Force.”

Price: 1905 yen
Disco da Gama, one of Exit Trance’s newest artists, gets the most tracks with a total of 4. Although I lament the recent lack of Dizzi Mystica and B.U.S., it is nice to see some of the other Exit Trance artists getting their due.
So, umm, who the heck is Mitchy?

The follow-up release to last year’s N.O.-SYO album, Oreuta. Whereas Oreuta focused on J-Rock, this new release will feature J-Pop covers. Most exciting is the fact that popular Hime Trance artists Tsukasa and Kei will be appearing with new tracks!

The Japanese Final Fantasy XIII theme song is the highlight of this eighth release in the UmaUma Trance series. Other known tracks include the Cooking Idol OP and a couple of repeats from SATB 9. Don’t be surprised to see “Scatman,” though.
The limited edition comes with a Duel Maid figure of Miko Hutae, who I believe was the cover girl for UmaUma Trance 3.
Mega Trance 11
Release Date: 4/28/10
Price: 2190 yen
Mega Trance lives!! It’s been almost a year since Mega Trance 10 came out, but FARM are finally bringing back the long-running series. Highlights include a new version of Heavens Wire’s “The End of Summer,” this time featuring DJ Joker. I’m also excited about a pair of R&B trance remixes, including an Overhead Champion remix of “I Gotta Feeling” as well as a Delaction remix of “Fire Burning.” Other artists include DJ Tora, DJ Ozawa, DJ Uto, and Los Hermanos.
The early list is looking very promising. I just hope they don’t ruin it all by adding tons of electro.
