Majipanee!
Artist: N.O.-SYO feat. Britney Hamada & Yukari Hyougo
Release Date: 8/3/11
Price: 1619 yen

N.O.-SYO’s latest album features collaborations with Britney Hamada and Yukari Hyougo. Unfortunately, at the moment the album only seems to be available at Amazon Japan. Hopefully N.O.-SYO will at least put it up on iTunes, but he still hasn’t done so with Sound Drive -Dance Rock Mix-, so I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Forever Songs -Brand New Remixes-
Artist: Rina Aiuchi
Release Date: 9/28/11
Price: 2381 yen

New remixes of songs by the recently retired Rina Aiuchi. Akiba Koubou producers are heavily featured, but there are also Vocaloid producers and other top acts such as Remo-Con and Ram Rider. I’m surprised they didn’t use the existing AKBK version of “Koi wa Thrill, Shock, Suspense” and just overlay the original vocals on top.

Chou Euro Best – Update

Chou Euro Best
Release Date: 10/12/11
Price: 1800 yen

Title has been changed from Chou Euro to Chou Euro Best to further capitalize on Wa Euro Best’s previous popularity. An early track list has also surfaced and it sadly has repeats 🙁 I’m pretty sure no one was aching to hear “Wasureru Koto ga Setsunakute” again. I’m surprised he didn’t put “Sousei no Aquarion” on for good measure.

Text Me Too Much (The Remixes)
Artist: Lucky Princess
Release Date: 7/16/11
Price: $5.94

New remix package for Disko Warp’s hyper techno track, “Text Me Too Much.” Includes a remix by Japanese TechPara legend, Seiji “Honmax” Honma. There are a lot of retro 80s/90s influences on many of the remixes, ranging from 8bit samples to classic 80s beats. Of course, Pete finishes the single off with his trademark speedy sound. It’s quite a fun listen, especially for the “R30” crowd.

The single can be found on iTunes as well as at Bandcamp.

Toho Eurobeat Vol. 4 ~ Perfect Cherry Blossom
Release Date: 8/13/11
Price: 1400 yen

Doujin release featuring eurobeat covers of popular touhou songs.

DJ Command from Akiba Koubou returns, as does Travis Stebbins, better known to SEB fans as Ken Blast. Also features guest vocalist 3L from NJK Records. 10 tracks this time instead of the usual 8, but the price will be the same.

For fans outside of Japan, White Canvas is willing to ship overseas, and they’ll be carrying TEB 4: http://www.w-canvas.com/shopping/detail.php?item_id=49548 For more information on their service, go to their info page: http://www.w-canvas.com/html/information.html#info. In addition to the price of the CD and overseas shipping, there’s also a 1,000 yen commission per order, so it might be a good idea to pick up TEB 1-3 at the same time. Note that I haven’t used White Canvas, but I’ve read online that speak decent English, so it might be your best shot at acquiring these CDs.

CDJapan also have a new shopping service so you might be able to ask them to buy it for you.
