Handz Up Posse 2 mixed by DJ Uto
Release Date: 12/19/12
Price: 1905 yen

Oh, very interesting. Whereas Quake Trance Best 23 featured hard dance tracks from all across Europe, Handz Up Posse is primarily composed of UK productions. In fact, aside from the Starving Trancer bonus track, I believe all of the tracks are licensed from Andy Whitby’s AWsum label and Synergy Trax. Good to know DJ Uto still has his eye on the UK scene. Seeing Gammer on this makes me miss Dancemania Speed, though. 🙁

Devilman·Mazinger Z Seitan 40 Shuunen Kinen DZ40
Release Date: 1/16/13
Price: 1905 yen

A special compilation that will celebrate the works of Go Nagai, famous for creating Devilman, Mazinger Z, Cutie Honey and other mangas. 2012/2013 is the 40th anniversary of the Devilman and Mazinger Z anime series and movies, so this CD will feature Exit Tunes artists reinterpreting popular theme songs from those works. CD Japan’s description specifies “Exit Tunes” artists, so while I would expect something from Exit Trance producers, most of the album will probably be populated by Vocaloid producers. Still, this is the kind of random themed release I miss from the glory days of Exit Trance. Announced bonus items includes a B2 poster and clear file.

Exit Tunes presents Storytellers RPG
Release Date: 11/7/12
Price: 1905 yen

A new series from Exit Tunes. Originally titled “Exit Tunes presents Concept Beat” and then “Exit Tunes presents Social Network Music ~Concept #01: RPG~,” it looks like Quake have finally settled on a name. It seems that it’ll be a concept album with each of the arrangers composing a traditional RPG theme, resulting in an OST of sorts. Bonus items include a cell phone strap, clear file, and B2-sized poster. Retailer-exclusive bonuses range from bromides to can badges and clear files. Visit the official Storytellers website for samples and more 8-bit RPG fun.
