/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I have ALL of the Campus Summit albums, in addition to some 100 or so gigs of Eurobeat albums.

Campus Summit 2005 is the best, really.

>>6379722
WHAT?

Even 2009?

I only have Campus Summit 2006-2008, plus 2010 in a seal CD+DVD set. I like 2008.

Wat do?

>>6379722
wait, did you actually buy all the Campus Summits in CD form?

They have a complete set, but its kind of expensive

>>6379726

I -could- connect my external HDD, and set you up, but it's my bed-time.

>>6379734
just a source of where they came from (if torrent) will suffice

>>6379740

I gathered all of my albums from an obscure music-sharing forum that is now a mere shell of what it once was, called Initial D World - specifically their music selection.

>>6379720
god damn that's their cover art?

fucking ugly

makes me want to start a fugly cover art thread in /mu/

>>6379745
mine were all from jpopsuki before the faggotry that it turned into. Do they use direct downloads, torrents?

>>6379757

They have a torrent section that's rarely updated. The modus operandi is to use MegaUpload, Rapidshare, or other file-sharing sites.

>>6379762
Can you search for individual posts on their forum? its only coming up as topics with hundres of pages and insanely long

>>6379780

No, and it's quite frustrating.

>>6379784
this is going to take a while. can their pages be viewed in phpbb archive? then at least I dont have a billion of pages to go through

>>6379797

I've never tried, perhaps it may yet be possible.

OMFG my eurobeat brethren, where the have you been!?!? Nobody likes our music. Where can I meet other Eurobeat lovers???

>>6379805
arrg. I can't do it.

Been trying to find Bazra music and only came up with 1 album, and not even a good one.

>>6379809
I think we are few and far in between in North America

We need moar Eurobeat threads on /jp/

>>6379812
ahh, I'm a fucking idiot. There's a "go to post" option.

>>6379829
>>6379829
I cry every night because this is true. Why does God hate us Eurobeat lovers?

>>6379847

Music this awesome isn't for everybody.

>>6379848
>>6379848
It just hurts so much not to have any IRL friends with the same music interest..... ;_;

>>6379863
I feel your pain ;_;

Also, I've already found a few megauploads still alive on Initial D World

thank you tripfriend =3

I'll post all the megauploads for Campus Summit shortly. Other direct downlaods are all dead.

Eurobeat is only good with male vocals.

>>6379959
You best be trollin

I really really wish that somewhere on the internet there's Super Eurobeat albums to download somewhere...

>>6380022
It's easier to find then you would think

>>6380026
http://thepiratebay(dot)org/torrent/3391331/Super_Eurobeat_001-049_ALL_ALBUMS__(ONCE_IN_A_LIFETIME_T
ORRENT_)

Start from here

Eurobeat thread on /jp/? fuck yes I love it.

>>6379847
because Eurobeat is a hard genre to get into, not only because its so hard to find music of it, but also because you already need to be open to an already hard to swallow genre of eurodance and general high energy dance music.

>>6379959
you best be fucking trolling. The only really good male vocals are the Deltadance male vocalists.

On that note, I absolute love the Eurobeat by Clara Moroni, especially in the 64-100 SEB era.

>>6380022
I think the compilation torrents of all the Super Eurobeat albums up through 190 are still floating around on Btjunkie.

pic related. ah, still my favortie Eurobeat song of all time. Cherry- "yesterday"

>>6379957
>>6379957
Thx for this. Campus Summit FOREVER.

Eurobeat? That's just horrible. I never knew you like'd such stuff.

>>6379957
now in >>>/rs/

>>6380436

>>6380064

My favorite Eurobeat track of all time is Mega NRG Man's FIRE. That and probably Lolita's TRY ME. Those are tracks I just consistently play over and over and never get tired of. I also really, really, REALLY like Marko Polo's STOP YOUR SELF CONTROL but I haven't listened to him in a while...

>>6382742
Would you care to share Campus Summit 2009?

Initial D World seems to only go up to 2008 (as do torrents I've seen elsewhere)

Also, can I make money selling things like this in North America? or is there simply no demand?

>>6382860

There is absolutely no demand. I'll go plug in my External HDD, and you'll have your desire, provided it behaves itself and doesn't shit a brick on spin-up. .

>>6382869
Thank you good sir

>>6380022

Back a few years ago I compiled all of 1-180 or so for /o/, but it's almost all low quality (128kbps average, some 96). I do still have it around somewhere.

Honestly you guys need to work on your audio setup. Just go to /g/ and ask for some headphones.

Oh, and you honestly should only just look for SEB album volumes that end in 0. 50, 70, 140, etc, sans 10 and 20. Those are all megamixes and megamixes are the best way to listen to eurobeat.

>>6383336

No need to visit /g/, anonbro, I'll just post this (captcha ate my first one)

>>6383380

That chart is shit, they don't even mention the HD 25 1-II (along with a long list of other headphones they missed), the SR-125 is implied to be good, the earbud chart is godamn useless, and they can't seem to realize that there are a million and a quarter different versions of the AKG K240.

Really you are better off posting at head-fi and buying the very first thing mentioned.

>>6383475

This one's old, forgive me as I have not been to /g/ for quite a while.

>>6383480

The "new" ones are basically the same. The chart itself is flawed. A (in this case bad) chart is never a replacement for good advice.

Forgot to mention, the PK2s on there are mentioned and aren't really good for any music that needs bass. In fact, a heck of a lot of music doesn't sound too good on them at all.

Eurobeat is the exception. Holy shit is it an exception.

>>6383490
Good point. But no one actually updates this one anymore.

Huh? Are these any good?

I only have the Initial D albums and I've been downloading the Super Eurobeat albums, from last to first. I'm around SEB 160 or so.

Trying to think of any other headphones that would play well with eurobeat. The AD700 are alright, but nothing too special... from what I've heard the SR-60 might do good, but those things are uncomfortable as heck (based on my MS1s) and I can't really bring myself to buy a pair of them or the 80s to find out.

The HD 25s play well with them but HD 25s play well with a lot of music and are pretty expensive to boot.

>>6383508

Listen to the following. I used to remember which disks as well but I've since forgotten.

Vol. 80, 90, 100, 120, 170, 180, And maybe 40.

Start with 180, and listen to all of it.

>>6383336
>Oh, and you honestly should only just look for SEB album volumes that end in 0. 50, 70, 140, etc, sans 10 and 20. Those are all megamixes and megamixes are the best way to listen to eurobeat.

Yeah, but those have that sort of non-stop format where each song has a part of the previous song in it. It really sucks if you use shuffle mode like me.

Also, there's links for the SEB albums here:
http://www.taringa.net/posts/musica/6064212/Super-Eurobeat---Albunes-Completos-21_21.html

Scroll down and you'll see all the posts made by this guy.

>>6383519
Are you talking about SEB or these campus summit albums?

>>6383528

SEB. Also you could always join the tracks into one big file, but that's a lot of work. I don't know why I'm talking to a shuffle mode peasant though. You don't know how to play directory in order and randomize directory change?

>>6383533
To be honest, no, I'm not sure what you're saying.

And joining all the tracks would make it even worse.

And where can I get more of Sugano's work? All the songs I've heard so far are really awesome.

>>6383547
also interested in this

I can't find these albums anywhere, the links on the initial D forums dont' work anymore

http://eurobeat.se/

That's an old site that has a bunch of single tracks that I used to use before I started downloading complete CDs, in case anyone wants to sample. (it's also the only place I've ever been able to find "This is Parapara", but it sounds like a megamix version. Does anyone know if there's a "complete" version out there?)

>>6383687
>Go Go Girls - I Wanna Be Fat.mp3

I swear to god some of these songs...

>>6383729
Fuck Go-go Girls. They've written tons of songs, but none of them were particularly memorable.

>>6383760
I like One Night in Arabia myself, but yeah, other than that they are pretty lame.

>>6383760
>>6383766
The same can be said of a lot of Eurobeat artists. They have one or two memorable songs and a lot of mediocre-sounding crap.

Bazooka Girl is one of the few I can think of who have more than 5 really memorable songs.

>>6383778
Well, I guess that leaves out those artists that have like a thousand names like Niko.

>>6383793
Nico is another. Overall, though, it's really disappointing when you find a song you like, then try to look up other stuff by the same artist. Only a small handful have any real consistency.

>>6383729

Oh the lyrics are even worse. Trust me.

>>6383864
I bet.

There are some I just can't help liking even though they have terrible lyrics, or how girly they sound. Like Love & Money from Za-Za.

The remixed version of this song, which I can't find, is extremely awesome when playing some racing games.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQceBuv0sL0

Shifting to 5th/6th gear and pass someone when the chorus starts is amazing.

>File corrupted

FUUUUUUUUUUUCK you, Seagate. I rue the day I ever bought your shitty fucking disk. Rue it, I say!

I've failed you all today.

>>6384003
Well, you did what you could.

>>6383904
lyrics are the last thing you worry about in Eurobeat songs.

Although Cherry's "yesterday" (yes it's >>6380064 here) has fairly simple and straighforward lyrics of nostalgia over lost love with some slight engrish.

I love "Love & Money" after I heard it on Initial D. Too bad it's Za-za's only really good song. "Heartbeat" by Nathalie will always be my first favorite Eurobeat song though. Shame she disappeared from Eurobeat around the SEB 120 decade. I heard she was not even actually an Italian like most other Eurobeat singers, but actually from the UK

But seriously, does this guy have his own albums? He's awesome

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZY1cgJPBSk
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbCpu6966mo

are there people that like eurobeat that didn't get into it from initial d?

>>6384051
Yeah, Heartbeat is one of my favourite songs too, it's the type of eurobeat I like.

>>6384072
Well, I started listening to it when I played Drift City with some /v/irgins and they sent me a folder with some tracks. Then after I actually watched Initial D I really got into it and started downloading the albums.

Also, what did you guys think of the Touhou Eurobeat albums?

>>6384051
>"Heartbeat" by Nathalie
Love that song.
It also pains me that the only person I've ever met who likes Eurobeat likes essentially anything I introduce him to. So I'm not sure if he actually likes it, or whatever.

>>6384106
Toho Eurobeat vol 1 >>>>>Touhou Euro Flash

Both were good, but Toho Eurobeat had slightly better songs. The only tracks on Touhou euro flahs I enjoyed were "Dirty Sexy Girl" and the Miracle Hinacle remix

I hope they make more, especially in the classic Italodisco style like "Faithful Heart" in Toho Eurobeat. I feel like "Plain Asia" would make a great Eurobeat song.

LIFE IS JUST A SEX GAME, BABY

>>6384148
Yeah, gotta agree with that. But still, like you said, both are good.
The one I didn't like was that one where the songs had no lyrics.

Tohobeat flash was it called?

>>6384157
It makes me sad that I can't relate to some of the songs.

>>6384148
I listened to Last Moment a few hundred times when I first got my hands on that album.

>>6384191
I'd say most of the songs in that album are good, but only a few are remarkable.

Same with the other album.

So how are SEB 205-207?
I noticed with SEB 201-204 only had 2 tracks total that I liked.

I love Eurobeat!

eurobeat thread?
fuck yes

I love Eurobeat!

>>6384226
I actually haven listened to much Eurobeat since SEB 195 or so when they had all those remixes of old classics. But I'd say not to expect much since Eurobeat has been on a steady slide downward.

I hold a lot of the classic Eurobeat songs close to my heart but I've lost interest in the genre at large. It gets tiring liking a genre no one in a hundred mile radius likes, and having to explain it over and over to friends who happen to be in my car or whatever when it plays.

>>6384226
Eh, it has a few decent ones, but yeah, most of the good songs are on the old albums, from 140 to 160 or so.

I've founds a few good ones like >>6383947
though.

I love Eurobeat!

No really, please don't delete me.

>>6384257
Yeah, still need to get to downloading most of the old ones, as I've never really found a complete source for them until the links posted earlier on.

I have no idea about music genres, is this eurobeat?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Voxzj6DREBA

>>6384351
nah. Eurodance. Very closely genre related though, even if it may be sometimes used as a catch-all-phrase for continental European electropop.

Eurobeat kinda exists only japan, as far as marketing and promotion goes. And to a small extent in Italy and neighboring countries.

>>6384351
Hm, I can't say I know what it is, but it doesn't sound like eurobeat.

>>6384226
Finished downloading 205-207, and listening to 205 right now, must say that I'm disappointed that after a second listen the song Plastic isn't about injection molded plastic like I thought on my first listen through.

might as well ask, but does anyone have a copy of the Eurobeat Christmas albums?

I use to have that and a shitton of other Eurobeat collections, everything from the SEB albums, Euro flash to the anime OP/ED eurobeat remix albums but all that disappeared when my hard drive crashed last year.....

>>6384425
Hah, those exist? Sounds even cornier than usual eurobeat albums.

I am interested in
>Euro flash to the anime OP/ED eurobeat remix albums
though

>>6384508
Yoko Ishida sang a few eurobeat compilations albums titled "Ultra Anime Eurobeat Para Para Max" (lol long title). It had all sorts of eurobeat remixes of anime OPs/EDs from the 90s to early 2000s. I use to have all of them, but all I have now are the handful I liked that I uploaded to my mp3 player. I can't even find torrents of them anywhere now.

I could only find a few floating around on youtube, and they're para para routines so just ignore them dancing if you just want to hear the music.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCIty_m4LFQ

Super Euro X'mas - Non-stop best
Super Euro X'mas 003 - Non-stop megamix
Super Euro X'mas I
Super Euro X'mas II
Super Euro X'mas III

That's all I have. Are there more?
I can't find the torrent I got them from. I could probably upload them though.

This album (Initial D - First Stage D Non-Stop Mega Mix) and the Initial D Millenium Box Set is the only Eurobeat I have heard. Is there anything essential that I need to listen to?

Also, it's nice to see a Eurobeat thread in /jp/. There are some in /a/ but it normally turns into people going GONNA GET YOU, LIKE A SPACE BOY, WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH, I'M READY BABE instead of sharing stuff.

>>6387321
yeah. I think that was all of them. Or at least that's what I remember from Eurobeat-prime.net

Please upload.

>>6388112
Since you've listened to the Initial D album, i'm going to assume you've already heard classics like Night of Fire, Running in the 90s, Save Me, Remember Me, Heartbeat, and so on..

my personal non-Initial D eurobeat recommendations:

Cherry- Yesterday
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdyF5n40ge0

Nathalie- Desperado
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzW5RldXqGs

Cherry- Round N' Round
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWtIQO16_0s

Keven & Cherry- Chemical Love
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZWRdNfd2RE

^technically this is Initial D 4th season, but it was such a bullshit short clip of 20 seconds when this song deserved a lot more airtime. It pissed me off personally since they played the entirety of a shittier ABeatC song in that same episode.


But ultimately it depends on your tastes. Eurobeat songs can vary anywhere between the cutesy, catchy, more female vocals like Cherry to the harder edged, almost prog-rock male vocal stuff of Dave Rodgers.

I'd suggest finding other songs by the "artists" you like since they tend to keep a general style in each of their songs.

Is Supergott Eurobeat? I know their song spawned that shitty meme but I love Spelar Ingen Roll:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfORMcojy4Y

>>6388272

Cheers for the links my good man.

>>6388337
Carmell is more related to the Scandanavian bubblegum dance genre that was really popular in the 90s. Stuff like Smile.dk and Me & My.

Eurobeat songs tends to use more guitars in its songs, especially bass guitars.

>>6388384

Can be collectively referred do as "DDR Music". Really, a large number of those songs have been in DDR.

Halfway between eurobeat and happy hardcore.

>>6388190

My connection is shit, so it might take a while.

Chemical Love is also one of my favourites.

>>6393301

Before you completely write off the Go Go Girls you should probably listen to their song 'Yellow Magic'. Questionable title, I know, but it's swell. Unless you heard it already.

Try not to think of Beatrice while you do.

>>6393308
Hm, I'll look for it.

>>6393316
It's on one of the SEBs in the 60s or so, I think.

>>6393319

SEB 73 has the best mix of it, with creepy Pipe Organ notes that immediately remind me of Umineko.

If Umineko had a eurobeat song in its soundtrack that would be it, I kid you not.

>>6393328
brb downloading SEB 73

>>6393336

If you can't find it, let me know. It's sitting on my laptop. I JUST put it on my phone.

Hell, I'm listening to Yellow Magic right now.

>>6393328
>>6393319

>>6393410
Thaaaaaank you, I'll listen to it now. Let's see if it's as umineko-ish as you say.

>>6393500

It's one of the best albums of the 50s - 80s, so you should also find a lot to keep you busy. Morena, Valentina, Mirka, and Drs Girls are pretty good

>>6393506
I try to avoid non-stop remixes because I'm a shuffle peasant like I said here >>6383523 but It'll do.

>>6393515

SO NANO KA?~

I can rig up my HDD and try seeing if I can get the full-length. If you enjoy it, that is.

>>6393523
Well, if it's no problem for you, then sure. These songs are pretty nice.

>>6393535

Since I'm pulling Ol' Reliable[lol] out for another spin, make your extra requests if you have them. I have all the songs on 73. Get the extended releases now!

>>6393546
Uh, do you have the albums from the group in OP's pic?

>>6393565

Yes, would you like a Campus Summit .rar? They are non-stop megamixes but they're good. I'm listening to 2007 right now. Channel X, so good.

>>6393571

do you want some of the Eurobeat anime OP mixes? I feel like contributing and I just scoured through my eurobeat collection I managed to salvage from my first hard drive crash.

Here's my favourite track list. Most of them from the inital D OST, but only because I'm too lazy to actually pick the good ones in the new albums.

The one I have selected, that one, is awesome.

>>6394091
Oh, and I've made a CD with them but everytime I start playing them as I drive I feel like I'm gonna end up crashing, which is why I also made a CD with touhou jazz, to cruise around smoothly.

I literally didn't even know I still had copies of those songs anymore because of how many HD's I've had fail on me over the past years, but almost all of those are anywhere from 4-6 years old at least. The site that I downloaded all of the SEB albums from completely disappeared, so I can't find anything but my absolute favorites which I dedicated to their own few folders. It was only until recently that I found them again hiding away in an old external HD, because I felt like listening to them again.

The special occasion was Beat Hazard. a 2 hour, 40 minute survival mode of nothing but Eurobeat and rainbow seizure inducing bullet hell. Talk about a fucking adrenaline rush.

>>6394129

I'll have to burn it to CD to get it all the files in one location, then re-copy them back to my computer. I don't know of any other way to compile them using iTunes, unless someone knows.

>>6394184

>The special occasion was Beat Hazard. a 2 hour, 40 minute survival mode of nothing but Eurobeat and rainbow seizure inducing bullet hell.

Oh yeeah. I fucking love Beat Hazard for that. It is so amazing. SO amazing.

>The special occasion was Beat Hazard. a 2 hour, 40 minute survival mode of nothing but Eurobeat and rainbow seizure inducing bullet hell. Talk about a fucking adrenaline rush.

I am a gyaru. I para para dance with my galsa in shibuya.

After club valferre closed down, eurobeat culture has been sub culture here in japan for over 10 years you know. It is still alive for gyaru types. To be in galsa, you must know the para para dance and eurobeat! There is some gyaru-o who also dance with us. They are man.

When I was the high-school student, my favorite album is the 116.

There is still the clubs that plays eurobeat in shibuya. Eurobeat night.

>>6394435

Also, I was at the eurobeat event for almost every year in the summer season. My friend is the dj for avex.

>>6394435
I SALUTE YOU AND YOUR GALSA
KEEP EUROBEAT ALIVE FOREVER

>>6394460

This is Angeleek. Do you know it? They are very famous galsa of about 20 member and they are still influnce. They have been here for over 10 years now.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebfMNz0Npgc&feature=related


And this is the man para dance style:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vh5O_45GofM&feature=related

It is different dont you think? It is to move like martial arts.

>>6383864

it is made for us the japanese. most japanese of course do not know english. english has cool sounds. the japanese eurobeat is becoming more common and popular now. some galsa makes there own album, did you know!?

>>6382860
>>6382869

I saw on japanese tv the GAIJIN GYARU. So i was thinking that Japanese style saba dance music and the eurobeat was becoming more known in the world.

Look at this:

http://tokyokawaiietc.com/archives/3218

This is a part from Japanese tv about the gaijin gyaru. They can dance almost like Japanese! Their make up is different, but cute...

I know one galsa has a gaijin gyaru from german. it was strange... but I like it. If you are gaijin, and come to tokyo to dance the para para, you must know eurobeat!

I must leave soon.

I will show you my favorite eurobeat song.

It is this! Do you know it? It is popular!

~misery of love~

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fd3JaSAfnfY&feature=channel

I also love this video because the woman on the left is my friend's friend. I am not so close, but I see her in the live event. she is much kind.

good to see Eurobeat is somewhat alive underground in Japan. Keep the fire burning, folks. Someday it may return for another Eurobeat boom like it has a couple of times in the past.

7A of Angeleek is the director of SEB now. Not sure how she's done but the last couple of albums haven't been total shit so I suppose she's doing okay.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRrXqCjBUco
Tora's voice is mai waifu.

>>6394617

if you think that Tora song is awesome, listen to Flame and Fire. SO GOOD.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVI72OZjZ1Q
Is this the same guy that sang Faithful Heart and China Gal?
Don't like his voice, but the riff's pretty nice.

>>6394644
I did. SEB 189, right? Definitely one of Sinclaire's better works, and Tora's voice is still ridiculously cute.

>>6394668

Yeah, the Mark Farina Extended Mix. It is so good.

>>6394684
The fuck? Mark Farina had nothing to do with Flame & Fire. His use in the trackname was based on a typo. Would'a been fucking awesome to hear a Sinclaire composition arranged SAIFAM-style, but... no. Unfortunately, not this time.

>>6394596
>>6394592
The japanese taste of eurobeat is becoming more, uncovered.

This is also another japanese DJ eurobeat artist.

Before, my generation grew up with eurobeat and para para, but now it is our life...

So, now many more Japanese artist DJ came up to make the eurobeat.

It is nice don't you think?

But, the Italian eurobeat artist is still... king. Dave Rodgers is still famous because his influnce, so he is still such a high image. It was before Avex made all eurobeat, but now it is "underground" as you say.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXQIB9bJg6Q&feature=channel

This is the Japanese taste of eurobeat making! The reason is, because it is our life.

>>6394696

>typo

EYE AM FRUSTRATE. There I was, seriously believing the Genius at SAIFAM had left his touch on that song. Oh well.

>>6394702
>>6394702
>>6394702

All the good Euro clubs are gone, though. Velfarre is gone, Twin star is gone...people had me thinking EB seriously was on the decline.

This I can handle, though.

>>6394702
Hang on a second. Isn't Ken Blast a Californian? (And Magic Hammer/Bellik & Hana [Super Euro Freak Vols. 1 & 2] from Nashville?)

And, Dave Rodgers is starting to sound more "Prog" with his Sun Fire stuff, especially with Futura. I'm not saying it's BAD, but... without Sandro Oliva manning the mixing board he doesn't seem to have the same appeal as he did on, say, SEB 110.
Did "Dance in My Town" and "Super Eurobeat" by Dave & Futura really click that well with Japanese listeners?

>>6394713
Dude, I was frustrated too. Well, we can still rejoice that the man's voice hasn't changed much.

...Over 30 YEARS. FOR FUCK'S SAKE, WHAT IS THIS MAN ON AND CAN I HAVE SOME?

>>6394722
There's a Euro/Techno/Trance club in Rio De Janero, called "Diamond 7".

Also, http://oasisdotechno.blogspot.com/ suggests that Maharaja might reopen for a small time.

>>6394722

no, they are still here. just you must talk and know where. you must know the day. it is also expnsieve. I went to the America club DJ event, and it was cheap I thought!

The event fee for the Japanese club is about $40 in dollars to be allowed to be in.

So of coruse, if you have not good job or not good boyfriend or husband, so you can not go so every week. This is why para para in the streets is popular with young galsa because of the price... nothing!

I have been to 3 campus summit in the past. Also, Club Alife in Roppongi has some nice event. I attented the avex 200th SEB album christmas party at the Alife in 2009. It was great and drunk! drunk para para is frightneing!

Yes, it is sad that the Velfarre is gone. I missed the last party. Thursday was eurobeat. It was my youth!

>>6394801

>I have been to 3 campus summit

YOU MUST tell me more! Since I was a spotty teenager I've wanted to go to one.

>>6394754
Correct on both counts. Also, if you really wanted to bother counting Disko Warp (though I'd call them more Happy Hardcore), they're out of Oregon or something.

http://www.veoh.com/browse/videos/category/howto/watch/v17368498wCE95T86

Leo River is amazing.

>>drunk para para is frightneing!
Drunk para para sounds awesome.

>>6394837

there is this strange dance they do. a woman took off her boot and she threw it in the middle. of the dance room. Then everyone dances on it!? They are drunk, and it is strange. Then the dance movement become bad and is not the same as the eurobeat. Then at the end of the event.... it is a mess. good mess.

Also, does someone here know about the club Beez? I was a good eurobeat club in shibuya before, but think became closed now, but Priness Ka~Tan before danced there. She became the himegyaru for Ageha. I have not seen her in a long time. I think she workes in the 109 now.

>>6394813

I do not know what to say! It was expsinve. It was great! really nice DJ and famous gyaru kei people where there! even some gal mama. It was great memory.

Does anyone here know DJ Boss?

He is the Avex eurobeat DJ. He was the DJ for Velferre before. I heard that he did a live in America once before in Texas for the event.

I was surpised to hear about this. Did you hear about this? About 5 years ago?

>>6394874

Oh yeah, that was Project A-kon. Some Texas con. It was in 2005, and the first time I really heard Super Eurobeat music besides InitialD stuff. Too bad I was not really into Super Eurobeat back then, so I regret not really caring who he was at the time.

>>6394754

Dave Rodgers, he is more god for the japanese eurobeat artist. They want to be closer to him. Avex still uses him for the remix, like Hamasaki and MOVE. Dave Rodgers is... legend for japanese eurobeat artist?

I know, not all eurobeat and para para fan likes his song, but they still think he is so influnce.

But I do remember there was a rumor that he slept with a Japanese girl... but I do not know if this is true. So some think this is why the trouble with Domino and Rodgers. I do not know, just what some say. Maybe true, but maybe not.

Dave Rodgers now, I think he is important, but he is leaving eurobeat slowly. I heard he is tired of the stlye and he deicded to make a new music.

are you that gyaru that comes into /cgl/ sometimes to post? if you are, you're pretty cool.

>>6394916

That is my gaijin friend. she comanded me to come here. You have seen her?! she is fabulas. The gaijin gyaru can look so cute dont you think?.

>>6394916

I forgot. Yes. sometimes I came to the /cgl/. But it is rare...

because of course my english is not too good...

it is sad.

>>6394925
i don't think i've seen a picture of her before but i've learned a lot about gyaru and galsa just from reading things that have been posted

>>6394939

Do you know the gaijin gyaru website?

http://www.ricoche.net/

My friend, she is there. she is not American, but this is a American website. I think, some of these forigner gyaru can gal look japanese! Dont you think?

I think my friend does not want her picture to show, but maybe you can find her on that website....

..I am surpised about the popularity of gyaru outside of Japan! It is amazing to me! before we think it is only a japanese way. These days, maybe we think it can be a world style? maybe someday good work! Always love the eurobeat!

my last reply for this evening...

This is not my gaijin friend, she looks simuliar like this gaijin gyaru.

Moreover, this girl is pretty dont you think? the gaijin face can do gyaru stlye too. it is wonderful!

it is a old make up though...

>>6394972
yeah i need to check out too because i have a day full of photos to take
thanks for all the info

have a good one

bump

oh wow super eurobat thread. I love nuage. her older stuff really gets in your head.

>>6391074
thanks man

Wow, I didn't know we had this many coinosseurs of eurobeat on /jp/. awesome.

Also, I think the man singing >>6394660 isn't the same guy who made china gal and faithful heart. On the albums he appears as sugano, and I was wondering if anyone knew if the guy had his own album or something, because his songs are awesome.

>>6398429
These are the ones I know of (can't find a link to china gal but whatever)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fktsVMmv_ug (the remix ruins it imo)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZY1cgJPBSk

>>6398429
some of us are just visiting /jp/. /jp/ has the reputation of being a... well, not a place that some of us visit every day.

/o/ had a torrent of SEB 1-187 and the Initial D soundtracks. I don't know if the torrent is still working though

>>6399517
I did not think /mu/ liked SEB

>>6399777
/o/ is pretty open to Eurobeat, as far as I remember.

/mu/ isn't so much. They're too busy jerking over their terribad hipster metal and spouting Neutral Milk hotel lyrics.

Tell me guys, what so good about eurobeat? I really don't like it.

>>6399836
for me, I like the catchy melodies and energy in all the songs.

I like how all the sounds come together to make a Eurobeat song. The vocals or the other instruments don't try to overpower each other. They're all equally loud and important to each eurobeat song.

>>6399836
For me, it's the fact that there can be a surprising amount of musicianship underneath the pop layers. Especially stuff from LED or Dima, you get some really neat chord progressions.

...plus I'm a goddamned sucker for that synth brass.
>>6398429
Sugano's the arranger (he's worked with other artists), not the singer. "T Stebbins" is confirmed for "Magical Girl" and any Ken Blast tune on Super Eurobeat.

>>6399888
Dima is pretty much the new LED/Vibration. The only difference is that Luigi Stanga is out of the picture and Dima hasn't made much Speed-Euro since then.

>>6399836
Well... to really fully appreciate Eurobeat... you'll have to play it while driving at least above 70KPH on some narrow winding mountainside road... at night... while carrying a box of TOFU in the back compartment of your car.

>>6399836

Super Eurobeat is a genre that grows on you.

One thing about Super Eurobeat is not to take it so seriously. It is a genre that does not even take itself serious. Some peopel use it for racin, some for para para dancing.

I can't explain the feeling you get when driving a fast car and over taking someone on the road or pulling a sharp turn with Super Eurobeat blasting.

I can understand though that It is not for everyone though.

Here is one of my fav songs.

>Don't Wanna Lose You Baby / NUAGE

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgYy9uB_pZg

>>6399932
oh fuck, Dave Rodgers and Nuage in car of your dreams kills me with alwsooomness everytime.

Does someone still want to upload or sauce Campus Summit 2009 -15th Anniversary-?

I can do Buchiage Tranace Special (6), Buchiage Tranace Best, Buchiage Paransu Special (10), and Campus Summit 2010 if I get around to it and these academic papers don't kill me

I'm 12 and what is this?

>>6399888
Oh thanks, I guess I'll look for that I guess.

>>6399953
Wow, this one is great.

I still can't find a link to the song I'm talking about... at times like these I wish 4chan had the option to upload audio files directly to the board.

>>6402471
Oh, here it is. The beat is so damn catchy when you're overtaking cars in real life or games (in my case, the former, until I get a car of my own at least)

http://www.tingge.com/power%20of%20love-13.html

I wish the "gyaru" would come back. Was that anon a she? Seemed like it.

Wow a eurobeat thread on /jp/, and active at that.

I kinda got into this genre when I started playing a lot of IIDX... surprised how many famous artists had their songs used for that game (especially IIDX RED) as I recognize a lot of this stuff without really knowing many artists at all.

These are my favourite from SEB 209 and touhou

Bump for Eurobeat glory.

>>6402655

It's funny, because in the past, someone told me that only gay people and trannies would listen to something as homosexual sounding as Eurobeat. I dismissed them as haters hating.

Then I find out that /jp/ likes Eurobeat. Dude was spot on. I wonder if this makes me by association a faggot and a tranny.

Oh, well, I always knew it would be this way since I started buying Apple Computer's hardware.

I only listen to vocaloids, they are the only singers that are not whores.

SEB 172 - One Night In Tokyo by Alexis

First SEB album and my favorite song from it.
Is Alexis a famous artist on these things?

>>6404598
it's haters just hatin'.

I enjoy eurobeat, and I've managed to retain my heterosexuality despite years of exposure to this shitstain of the internet. Frankly, the ones who are labeling music as "homosexual" are the real homosexuals.

>>6404635

> Frankly, the ones who are labeling music as "homosexual" are the real homosexuals.

Mostly idiots who listen to GRIM AND HARDCORE music like lamb of God, Avenged Sevenfold, etc, so you're mostly likely right

>>6404600
If they're not whores, why can every otaku worth his salt recognize Miku by her panties?

>>6404651
>how do you rape that which has no body

you cant

>>6404635
>>6404598

Lol "eurobeat" is not the same as super eurobeat son. Sure we tend to say eurobeat for short, but really super eurobeat is a different class of dance music then plain ol eurobeat. Let us just say that they do not play super eurobeat in armani exchange...

But I agree that plain old eurobeat is pretty gay.

Super eurobeat on the other hand directly evolved from Italy disco. Listen to some old Dave rockets stuff from the 80s and you will find it is a world away from de gay.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVTXepnh-BI

>>6404774

Italodisco is very much indeed Rad.

Here's another hit from Dave Rodgers when he was performing as Aleph. I have this LP. it is .... so rad.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wB8bjOYondI

FCF - BAD DESIRE

Italodisco-sounding Eurobeat. Technically still sounds like Italodisco

TACO - Got To Be Your Lover

Really chill Italodisco. I have the vinyl.

No fuck off. Italo disco is VERY Japan related. Italo was pretty only played in Japan, thus the reason why so many of the songs back then were about Tokyo or Japan. Pure eurobeat has nothing to do with Japan. SUPER EUROBEAT, now that is what we are talking about.

Most of the early super eurobeat albums in the early 90s was pretty much Italo. It evolved real quick into what we think of super eurobeat in the mid to late 90s.

Here is max coveri's Italo song "bye bye baby" that was in one of the early super eurobeat albums. (I think SEB 6 or 9).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_Lou8oh1Po

>>6404859
I forgot to mention the name max coveri should be familiar. he sang a little song in the late 90s called, "running in the 90s".

I have looking for this song fotever

j-core/related: http://somecrappyuploads.blogspot.com/search/label/J-core

Does anyone know what kind of synth brass that super eurobeat uses? I can't seem to replicate it in my songs or hear it in other genres.

>>6409558
I second this. I'm using Logic Pro, and have been experimenting with the settings on various plug-ins and synths forever, without luck so far.

Bumpin' for more eurobeat!

Did someone ask for vocaloid eurobeat?

fixing that.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQhfd6nQbbU

Are there any musicians here?
If so, /jp/ should do their own eurobeat album.

>>6413830
I attempted to make some super eurobeat a while ago in FL Studio but I could not get that Sharp stab synth to sound quite right so I just turned it into a cyber trance song. I believe there is this one guy in California that makes super eurobeat and did list all his equipment on this other message board. Let me just say that I am not nearly as dedicated as him. I did hear of a way to mimic the super eurobeat synth in garage band.

>>6415256
>>6409558
Logic? Just make the sounds in Garageband. Evidently the guy from Cali is spilling the beans:
http://eurobeatblog.com/category/how-to/

Here's Odyssey/Ken Blast's stuff on getting the sounds in Garageband:
http://eurobeatblog.com/how-to/eurobeat-for-garageband/
http://eurobeatblog.com/how-to/eurobeat-in-garageband-the-next-step/

A pity, though, that Ken Blast is a Macfag.

>>6413830
THIS OH GOD THIS. I'd take a crack at it if this were to happen.

>>6415297
>>6413830

Yeah that was the one I saw.

But what program do all those Japanese eurobeat artist use? They can't all be using garage band or be mac fags. There has to be some synth I could buy online somewhere or plug in that does not require me to invest in a whole studio.

>>6394896
This was a rumor before he started Sun Fire Records. I heard he was going to just do rock at that time too. First time I ever cried over Eurobeat.

>>6415312
I would also be in.

I already made a few songs, but not sure I want to post them up on 4chan with my real name. I would have to make a new alterego for this project.

I am willing to buy new equipment if need be, but I want to know how much to invest and know exactly what kind of sound I am getting.

The good thing about super eurobeat is that it does not take itself as seriously as other musics, so would think I can have a lot of fun coming up with your typical eurobeat lyrics and just have fun with it.

>>6415386
I've heard Supersaw P8 and Synth1 are great for the synth brass and basic sounds.

>>6415386
Many of them are actually mac fags. If you just want to focus on making music or graphics, you can't really go wrong with a Mac. Dave Rodgers for example uses Mac OS and Logic Pro, as far as I know.
If you want to get into serious music production and have the money, getting a Mac is probably the way to go. Of course that won't help you with coming up with a melody and lyrics, and a good artist can do good music with any kind of software, but it sure helps to have something that's useable out of the box like GarageBand when you're just starting out.

>>6415430
Also, Hi-NRG Attack confirmed for MASSIVE Macfags. Half of their new output since 201 has some sort of Apple Loop in it.

>>6415759
I own a Macbook with Logic and I know this isn't true. Any Windows with, say, Cubase or an equivalent DAW is just as good for music production. I just happen to PREFER Logic (after tooling around with other DAWs), but Macs are no better at music production.

>>6416493
That's what I said, don't misunderstand my post.
Once you have reached a certain level, anything will work for you and it's just a matter of preference.
But tools like GarageBand are nice for beginers because they are easy to use and come with tons of presets and loops but still allow you to customize stuff to a certain degree. You won't be crushed under a pile of settings and sliders before you can start doing anything.
Of all the different pieces of software I have used, Logic is still my favourite. I tried Cubase and Ableton but both didn't really work out for me. In the end, it's all about what works best for you personally.

>>6416791
Ah, my mistake. I was just debating the idea that one would need a Mac to get 'serious about music production'.

Just got Logic 9 a couple weeks ago, Flex is... underwhelming but still a worthy addition.

Despite reading up on Eurobeat, listening closely to songs I like, looking up tutorials and experimenting for days, I still can't produce that typical Eurobeat sound. How do they even get that much energy and power into their songs? It's crazy.

>>6417243
funny thing. I found a website one time that offered several well known super eurobeat songs that were turned into "construction kits". Basically, it was a list of mp3s of all the audio channels that made a super eurobeat song.

So all the drums were in one audio file.

the synth in another.

the vocals isolated by itself in a different audio file.

etc.

After studying and reverse engineering a super eurobeat song in my music program, I learned quite a lot how to use the arrangement to get that eurobeat "sound".

basically, it is a whole bunch of little instruments adding up to sound like we know it. It is just harder to hear in the finish songs then hearing it broken down like I was able to. So basically what I was able to do was use the channels as a guide line and recreate my own drums line, my own version of bass and brass synth until I came up with the same number of channels and instruments that they did, and I after putting them together into a finished song, it did sound a lot like the structure and energy of a super eurobeat song.

though i noted that making eurobeat song and because of its speed at around 130-170 beats per minute, it can be tricky to control all those instruments and channels into a melody. I remember thinking at the time that it was like trying to walk 13 cats on a leash at the same time. This is when your skill and experience as a composer really comes into play and am afraid like that anon said above, that is something that not many can help you with.

also, unrelated: how many posts can these threads take until they will no longer bump to the first page?

>>6417360
Junodownload, the Construction Kits by AkyrMusic (taking songs from Delta), I know the ones. Newfield did that as a means to sort of 'bite back' at avex (his bad relationship with avex and 7A is less than subtle).

Mac OS X 10.6 and Logic Pro 8. I think my problem is what >>6417360 described.
>it is a whole bunch of little instruments adding up to sound like we know it.
I can't figure that out at all. Everything should fit together from a theoretical point of view, but it just sounds like a huge mess of crappy synths and drums thrown together.
Maybe I'm missing some fundamental concept of basic music theory here or I'm just dumb and need a lot more practice with simpler stuff.

>>6417479

oh that's interesting. I had no idea that it was an "inside job" that leaked the construction kits online. what is this about a bad relationship with avex? I would be interested to know more about this. I know avex can be jerks at times, so I am curious what you heard or what is going on.

>>6417520

Seconded. Would like to know about this biting back.

Eurobump.

Still alive? sugoi

>>6417520
I'm guessing avex just pushed Newfield a bit too hard on too many of his songs, so he tried this. Avex is known in the Eurobeat realm to occasionally be unreasonable with their song requests, in some cases requiring entire re-records and re-produces.

Go check out "Super Eurofreak Vol. 2". Besides some fuckawesome Eurobeat AND Hyper Techno, you'll see a Eurobeat song with the caption "7A didn't like it". Like, straight-up, part of the song title.

The songs for which there are kits on Juno are, in quite a few cases, retools or straight-up the original pieces of 'classic' Delta songs. A quick peek on JunoDownload will show you what's up.

Of course, for all I know Newfield and Avex could have made up since all this, and this is all something from which they're getting some income. I'unno.

Still around?

Incredible.

To put it bluntly, lrn2mix.
Pick the, what, 3 most important parts of the mix (usually the SynthBrass, Drums/Perc & Bass) and bring those up, everything else down. I don't know how to mix or master so basically, SAVE YOUR COMPOSITION, then putz around with it until it sounds good. At risk of sounding painfully redundant, you want your bassy sounds to be bassy and your higher-pitched stuff to have a decent amount of his/mids. One surprising thing I've found is that Eurobeat kicks are unusually high-pitched. More of a TMP than a DMMM.

>>6419190
Over 1 week now! Come on SEB fans, keep this alive!

>>6419467
Yeah, I noticed that the bass is pretty high pitch. I did an expirment today and got a few SEB songs and slowed them down by about 10%. The bass sounds a lot more normal. If you get a normal song and speed it up a bit, the bass will become slightly higher pitch. Interesting, though I think they do not straight up speed up their songs, I do think they must have expirmented with it early on, decided they liked the sound, and just decided that eurobeat bass needs to be a little higher.

postin' mai eurobeat waifu to bump thread.

I'm interested in the idea of making eurobeat, but I have no musical background or any of the software to do so. I know for certain that if I made a eurobeat song, it wouldn't be about the usual party, car, and love fire super desire subjects, but about incredibly dorky stuff like fantasy and mythology like they sing about all the time in power metal.

>>6420048
Dude, Nuage is really in the right pictures. Ironically, she looks a LOT like a very young Domino in those pictures. Clara's pretty great too, though. For, what, 45? She's looking pretty good for her age.

What, you don't wanna write the next "BURNING LOVE CAR BABY FIRE DESIRE TONIGHT"?
...actually, if I recall right there have been a few actually 'deep' Eurobeat songs out there. "My Gasoline" was written by Matteo Rizzi about an oil crisis in Italy, not to mention "Frontal Impact" and "Spirit of the Night" are about the loss of a loved one in a car crash. Also I heard "New Horizon" might have had a meaning besides "ending generic relationship #5493082389" (http://avexnet.or.jp/eurobeat/diary/2010/11/02/ suggests that it was originally called "July 31"), but I'unno what that is.

Hey, do we need to start a new thread eventually? This thread's got a damned good share of posts, we may need to start one soon to keep this going.

>>6420496
We should keep going until this 404s on us. We should make a new thread as soon as one dies to keep the eurobeat momentum going.

Ps. Nuage is very fine.

>>6420496
heh, yeah. Looks like Ginacarlo has a certain "type" he likes.

Yeah, I remember some of the "deeper" eurobeat. Well, if "deep" eurobeat consists of songs not using the usual subject matter and key words. "Captain America" was actually not about the superhero, but a surprising political satire about American foreign policy. "One Day Queen" was a tribute to Princess Diana after her death. Allegedly "Tsunami Comes" was about that massive tsunami that hit South Asia a few years ago. And of course there's all those lovely HI-NRG attack songs about Bazookistan and Soviet Russia.

I am wondering though. How does one in Italy get into the super eurobeat business when eurobeat is relatively unknown outside of Japan? I mean, people like nuage must have heard about it somewhere, or maybe was a massive weaboo before she decided to join dave rodgers. There has got to be far more wannabe super eurobeat artist outside of Italy, just none have the luck of being in Italy.

Eurobeat started out as basically just Italo-disco. Listen to some of the early hits in the genre (Boom Boom Dollar, Upside Down, Give Me Up, etc...) and you'll hear that the difference between Italo and Eurobeat, at its inception, was zilch. Over time the Japan-marketed variety was sped up and added more distorted guitar (some say this is due to the influence of Hyper Techno), so the artists remained in their location but the style became a great deal more Japan-friendly.
tl;dr: Started there, just happened to stay there. That isn't stopping a few international faces from joining the fray though.

Regarding Nuage, if I remember right she did an interview or two where she said they met at a party and Giancarlo asked if she'd be interested in joining in.

Oh, and evidently Nuage is a Ranma 1/2 fan, if her Myspace is anything to take seriously. Girl's got taste.

Also, these producers don't just do Eurobeat (Ritmo e Blu does other stuff and Rodgers put out a pretty decent rock album... couldn't help but think he sounded like Count Chocula on "Brick on My Wall" though) so sometimes they make their way in that way.

>>6421667
It makes me warm and fuzzy to know that someone else has heard Captain America. Back in my Japanese MMORPG days, that was my favorite grinding song.

>Implying Eurobeat is good
Even when I was a huge Bemanifag I never liked this genre, so I guess this is a good as time as any: Give me the strangest Eurobeat album you know of, something you would describe as "Eurobeat for those that hate Eurobeat".

>>6424504
not so much an album, since each Super Eurobeat album has songs from different studios with their distinct styles. Just look up anything by Hi-NRG attack for weirdest eurobeat, I guess.

I'll help you out. Eurobeat about an imaginary soviet russia land.

Eurobeat about vodka

Long story short Eurobeat is shit. Deal with it faggot.

OP here.

I'm still asking for Campus Summit 2009 ～15th Anniversary

>>6424504
"Most Extreme Ultimate Thunder" by Magic Hammer. But you don't like what you don't like so it won't matter.

>>6424551

Congratulates for making a great thread op.

>>6424504
You should try Italo.

>>6425895

Got a good sample or link?

I watched a girl dance to Luka Luka Night Fever for at least 10 minutes earlier.

Goddammit.

Hey one anon here mentioned that a gyaru is head of the eurobeAT stuff over at avex, so does that mean "7A" is replaced?

>>6429483
No, 7A WAS a Gyaru, now she's in charge of SEB. I think she still occasionally does gyaru stuff on her Twitter though.

Who is 7a?

>>6430761
Well, I wad going to say, the guys over at eurobeat prime complain a lot about 7A. Though the posts are dated a few years ago, I was assuming that 7A was a recent change and was "in touch".

>>6430949

The one in charge of what goes in the super eurobeat albums over at avex.

>>6431194
Thanks

because she's Too unintelligent.

>>6432634

Who? 7a is a woman?

Why does Japan love Hi-NRG music so much...

Last time I visted, half the stores were playing Hi-NRG. The other half was lame 90s.

>>6435750
Because it's awesome and they know it?

threads going to 300+ posts, in MY /jp/?

Also, where is eurobeat hospitable on 4chan?

/o/ is to an extent, /mu/'s just full of butthurt faggots and their metal screaming garbage. How's /a/, too fast?

>>6436272
putting eurobeat on /a/, while generally positive, often just boils down to people typing eurobeat lyrics in caps lock.

although as a part time /mu/ lurker, I gotta say that aside from "hipster metal", they're pretty hostile to metal in reality. Instead, they're busy jerking off to their obscure pitchfork core shit. A eurobeat thread there would be pushed off the board pretty fast.

good to know that /jp/ is fine with eurobeat discussion

Let me remind you all that op made this thread on November 1st....and it is currently the 12th. Just 2 more days and this thread will have been active for 2 weeks!

>>6436398
I remember a thread on /e/ that was around for about 6 months

Tuning in, at 296 replies now.

I say make a new thread for the glory of Eurobeat.

wow this fucking thread is still here?
carry on then cause i love eurobeat.

>>6430962
That's because Eurobeat Prime complains about fucking everything.

>>6436272
/a/ approves, only insofar as quoting lyrics here and there. No serious discussion, certainly nothing like this thread. Like, outside of forums devoted to it I haven't seen discussion like this for a while.

>>6439714
>>6436433
>>6436398
Well thus thread is now over 2 weeks old. I guess I can make a new thread as soon as this one 404s.

Thank god, that disgusting cover art in the OP has been haunting me for the past week.

>>6440925
Same here.

This was a great thread.

>>6442439
It's not dead yet!! ;_;
