K-Pop Party Mix Best ~Best of K-Pop Cover Selection~
Release Date: 9/4/13
Price: 1886 yen

The last release in this series, K-Pop Party Mix III, debuted back in March of 2012, so it’s odd that they waited over a year to do a best album. There are 50 tracks in all, including the best of the previous three releases as well as some new productions, including “Gangnam Style” and “Gentleman.”

Boys Pop Best ~Kiite Okitai Yougaku Boys Selection~
Release Date: 10/16/13
Price: 1800 yen

FARM apparently have boy band fever, as this new compilation will feature dance covers of songs by boy bands past and present. One Direction and Backstreet Boys songs make up most of the list, but there are also songs from The Wanted and various other male acts. Oddly, FARM’s own boy band, The United, are nowhere to be found.

All Time Party!! mixed by DJ Akeey
Release Date: 8/21/13
Price: 1200 yen

Digital non-stop mix from FARM Records. Doesn’t look like there are any new tracks, so it’s pretty much just repeats from previous FARM compilations.

Available on iTunes Japan.

Exit Trance presents Speed Anime Trance Best 20
Release Date: 12/4/13
Price: 1905 yen

The landmark 20th album in the Speed Anime Trance Best series has just been announced for a December release. That’s pretty remarkable considering that 2012 only had 2 SATB releases. In fact, this will the first time ever that 4 mainline CDs have been released in the same year. Not many details yet, though hopefully they continue to return to their roots and bring back more composers and vocalists from the past. B.U.S. and Ryu*, please?

Also, for some reason the catalogue number is QWCE-315, compared to SATB 19’s QWCE-342. It’s almost as if they planned for the 20th release before they did the 19th. -_-

Pre-order at CDJapan.

Agepoyo Party J-Pop Covers
Release Date: 9/4/13
Price: 600 yen

Digital EP featuring full versions of J-Pop covers from Agepoyo Party Mix. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have the full-length version of Delaction’s “Butterfly,” and I’m starting to wonder if it’ll ever be made available. 🙁

Available on iTunes Japan.
