Disko Warp Meets Sakuma Hitomi & J-Girls
Release Date: 5/27/09

West meets East in this upcoming collaboration between Disko Warp and Musicrush. Disko Warp, of course, are famous for penning Smile.dk’s “Doki Doki” as well as for producing their own distinct brand of happy hardcore and eurobeat. Musicrush are sort of a Japanese equivalent to Disko Warp, delivering some of the best independent music that Japan has to offer. Musicrush have delivered music to some of Japan’s top labels, including Universal, Victor, and FARM.

Disko Warp Meets Sakuma Hitomi & J-Girls will feature new Disko Warp remixes of Musicrush’s biggest hits, including Sakuma Hitomi’s “Change My World.” Also included will be a remix of Eryko’s “Ready for Love,” which previously appeared on FARM’s VIP Mega Euro Star series.

The album will be available on various digital download services in late May.

Lolitabot
Release Date: 12/08
Price: $3.96

A new single from Disko Warp Records, who collaborated with the Smile.dk team for “Doki Doki.” “Lolitabot” has catchy lyrics and a really strong, memorable synth hook. However, like a lot of hardcore these days, there’s a little too much emphasis on bass for me. Hardcore fans will love it, though, so if you’re in to the genre then do yourself a favor and check out the Initial P remix at the very least. Myself, I wish they had included a slower dance remix akin to what Saifam usually does for Jenny Rom songs.

Digital downloads now available at CDBaby.
