Ultra Dance Mix -Party Hit Tunes-
Release Date: 3/27/13
Price: 600 yen
16 more full versions of songs from No.1 Party Mix -R&B House Best-. Oddly, the non-stop had mix had 33 songs, so one song, “Give Me Everything,” was left off the digital releases entirely. This edition is less interesting than the other collection, though it does have the DJ U*Hey? remix of “Without You.” It’s more piano house than trance, though. 🙁
R&B Anthem -R&B House Best-
Release Date: 3/6/13
Price: 600 yen
Digital only album featuring 16 full versions of songs from No.1 Party Mix -R&B House Best-. This one features most of the good remixes from the non-stop mix, including all of the Threemason remixes as well as the DJ ET-Q remix.
No.1 Party Mix -R&B House Best- mixed by DJ Satoshi
Release Date: 3/6/13
Price: 2190 yen
Interesting new house compilation from VillageAgain. All of the tracks are licensed from the seemingly ubiquitous American label, Power Music. However, some of the tracks have been remixed by Japanese producers. The non-stop mix is by DJ Satoshi, previously known as half of the Mega Trance act, Glutton Boyz, and he even contributes some remixes of his own. The Mega Trance connection doesn’t end there, as there are also tracks by DJ U*Hey?, both under his main alias as well as under his Threemason alias. DJ ET-Q, perhaps best known for his Hime Trance appearances, is also present with a remix. Unfortunately, the remixes aren’t trance, but more garden variety house and EDM.
Also available on iTunes Japan.

Interesting news posted on J-Mi & Midi-D’s Facebook page.

Timeline (Single)
Artist: J-Mi & Midi-D
Price: Free
A brand new, FREE track from J-Mi & Midi-D celebrating their music over the years. It’s like a mashup of all of their productions as well as the songs that have inspired them over the years. Features samples from Smile.dk, Bus Stop, S&K, Jenny Rom, and other Dancemania artists.
In other J-Mi & Midi-D news, they report on their Facebook that “The new single “Hardcore (Is My Life)”, is getting picked up in the UK, by one of the most legendary producer/dj’s in the scene. Stay tuned for more details ;)!” I was wondering what the holdup was since they first announced the track back in September. 2013 looks like it’ll be a very busy year for the duo. In addition to the upcoming single, they’ve also got a full album coming up as well as remixes for Disko Warp.
Radio Gosha x Disko Warp: Living a Colorful Life
Release Date: 3/2013
Price: ???
Hot off the heels of their successful Hardcore Advance Kickstarter, Disko Warp are back with a new Kickstarter for a special DVD collaboration with Radio Gosha. The DVD will compile all 7 of the Disko Warp music videos animated by GoshaDole. There’ll also be a bonus CD featuring the tracks from the music videos as well as 7 new, exclusive remixes “by top producers from around the world.” I’m hoping that means a new DJ Command remix. 😀 Bonus items range from postcards to stickers and keychains. Minimum pledge for the CD+DVD set is $25. There are only 8 days left to pledge since they wanted the CD+DVD sets produced in advance of Spring conventions, so be quick!
While I’m at it, there are only 48 hours left on Radio Gosha’s T-shirt Kickstarter: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/radiogosha/radio-gosha-presents-ufo-catcher-and-pussy-game-sh
