Oooh, now this one’s personally very exciting. Renowned doujin circle, salvation by faith records, will be releasing a special Super Famicom/SNES remix CD during M3. Included will be themes from some of my favorite games like Super Mario Kart, Donkey Kong Country 2, and my all-time favorite, Final Fantasy VI. Artists include Takahiro Aoki, who provides an awesome remix of Shin Megami Tensei II’s battle theme and hapi?, who’ll be taking on one of my favorite themes from Final Fantasy VI.
Vocal Rhythm
Release Date: 4/27/14
Price: 1000 yen
Spring M3 2014 is almost upon us, and I thought I’d devote a week to doujin dance releases. First up is a vocal dance album from MUZZicianz Records, which is headed by Takahiro Aoki. There are quite a few genres represented on this album. As listed on the website: Hardcore / Electro / Dubstep / ROTTERDAM / Speed Dance / Breakcore / Eurobeat. Standout tracks include Takahiro Aoki’s own “Time 4 Dance” as well as Hyuji’s Saifam-style “You Are the Reason” (which J-Trance fans may remember covers the same song as “Reason” by Lovers).
MUZZicianz Records has no less than 4 albums coming out during M3. There are samples of the other 3 albums on their official blog. Crisis Force 2014 sounds amazing if you’re familiar with shmups, while Happy Swing! inexplicably includes another cover of “Reason.”
2014 Best 20 -1st Quarter Hit Tracks- mixed by DJ Getfunky
Release Date: 3/12/14
Price: 1200 yen
New compilation from Manhattan Records featuring hits from the first quarter of 2014. It seems that MR will be releasing these 20-song mini-mixes quarterly. Samples can be found on the Manhattan Records special page for the CD.
Speed Star
Release Date: 4/27/14
Price: 1500 yen
The four foreign guest artists have been revealed for this upcoming Speed compilation, and it looks like I was correct in my guesses of JAKAZiD and Chris Bucknall. Surprisingly, Chris Bucknall is back with his old collaborator, Kristian Dee (previously known as Christian D, who provided the rap for CJ Crew’s Rhythm & Police). The other guest artists include 3R2 (from Taiwan) and Crash & D-Shark Feat. Bridson (from Ireland / Finland / United Kingdom).
Crossfade demos for both discs have also been released. I believe that both discs have full versions.
The CD will be available at the upcoming M3-2014 event in Japan, which is currently scheduled for April 27. Foreign buyers can buy it by contacting DJ Hyuji: http://rttf.eternalbreeze.net/contact.html. I previously speculated that the album would be made available digitally (and the contest page still mentions it), but I see no mention of that on the current page.
