SAI145 – California Gurls (United Forces Speedy Mix)
Artist: Kate Project
Price: 0.99 EUR

No demo available yet. I wasn’t a big fan of United Forces’ remix of “www.blondegirl,” but I did like their take on “Waka Laka.” Right now the song is only available from Saifam’s website, but it should be up on Juno shortly.

The third volume in the Speedisko series will see a release later this September and will include another 8 Disko Warp hits. I’m personally looking forward to “I Wanna Be A Ninja (Ricardo Autobahn Remix).” I very much enjoyed the original, and Ricardo Autobahn can only increase the level of win.

Best of Acoustic
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 9/6/10

The album will is now on sale at musicload, Amazon MP3, and 7Digital. It’s cheapest at Amazon, where it’s only $7.99.

I was initially worried that the songs might have re-recorded vocals, but they wisely used the originals where applicable. The arrangements are pleasant enough, though a few clearly weren’t made for slower tempos.

Fire Spirit
Artist: Kouhei
Release Date: 9/22/10
Price: 1905 yen

At what point does an utatte mita singer become a professional? If it’s when they release a CD with a major label, then Kouhei has officially hit the big leagues. Kouhei is perhaps best known for, well, his screaming. Witness his screaming in “Megu Megu*Fire Endless Night,” a fast-paced Eurobeat song originally made by samfree:

His first album will be full of anime and vocaloid covers. It should be fun to hear a lot of these songs with male vocals for a change.
