DJ Lily presents Super Vocaloid
Release Date: 3/23/11
Price: 2500 yen
Yet another Vocaloid compilation from Avex. They’re really churning these out, aren’t they? This one supposedly focuses on Lily, who was released last year and was jointly developed by Yamaha and Avex. Regardless of the title, most of the announced tracks are still by Hatsune Miku, though others like Gakupoid and Yuki also make appearances.
First press copies come with a limited plastic trading card. You’ll get one of five different designs.

Jazz in the Mix
Release Date: 1/26/11
Price: 2000 yen
Avex are jumping on the R&B house bandwagon with this release mixed by the omnipresent DJ Fumi*Yeah! Produced by Aqua Productions, the production crew behind FARM’s House Flavor R&B releases. Some of the covers are really well done, particularly “Only Girl.” It’s nice to hear that song with someone who can actually sing ^^
Cyber Trance 10th Annivesary

Price: 2427 yen
2011 marks the 10th anniversary of Cyber Trance, and Avex are celebrating with repeats galore! Most of these songs were already featured on Super Best Cyber Trance, released in 2008, but never underestimate Avex’s desire to use the same songs over and over again.

Price: 2427 yen
A new entry in the House Nation series with an emphasis on big-name Western acts like Ne-Yo, Taio Cruz, and yes, the Biebs.
Super Vocalo Beat
Release Date: 3/9/11
Price: 2405 yen
A few months ago Avex announced a compilation titled “Vocaloid Eurobeat,” which was to feature eurobeat covers of Vocaloid songs and was to be produced by Akiba Koubou. However, Avex quietly canceled the CD, which supposed to be released on January 19. Well, it seems that the project has been reincarnated as “Super Vocalo Beat.” Presumably it will still be produced by Akiba Koubou producers, with Utatte Mita singers providing the vocals.
Kiwami Euro Best
Release Date: 3/2/11
Price: 1900 yen
Whyyyyy? Oh, Avex, you never cease to amaze me. Instead of doing another release in the Super J-Euro Best Mix series, Avex have instead decided to blatantly rip off the Wa Euro Best series. Kiwami (Extreme) Euro Best will be produced by DJ Yossy, and will include many tracks already featured on other Akiba Koubou compilations. Yes, that means “Zankoku” and “Sousei.” AGAIN. Not to mention “Soko ni Aru Kamoshirenai…” There do appear to be some new tracks, but for the most part this serves as yet another reminder why Japanese eurobeat sales have been going downhill: TOO MANY REPEATS!
