New SEB. Very good. October is saved.

I like what I've heard atm from the sinclaire teaser, while some of the SCP stuff on this volume is just awkward? usually expect better from SCP. was praying for some jager, too lol

Thanks a lot.

First impressions…

SPOILER

# best of the album @ honorable mention !! I think I will like if I listen a lot QUOTE Inside My Soul : ★☆☆☆☆ (this song sucks *skips*) QUOTE Music In Action : ★★★☆☆ (really like the synths in this one, it's a pretty solid tune) QUOTE # Wanna Be My Geisha? : ★★★★☆ (awesome voice, awesome guitar solo, awesome build up in sabi. Manuel is one of the reasons I keep on trying to listen new eurobeat…) QUOTE Just A Love Story : ★☆☆☆☆ (Strange effects in voice, although it's a decent track with good riff, it's really annoying *skips*) QUOTE The Pray : ★★☆☆☆ (More good voices now in a duo. I like it. Square track with good pacing) QUOTE @ Joker Face : ★★★☆☆ (I'm not so fond of Malvicino vocals yet but I think he's getting the hang of it. Good track with some jingling now and there, I liked how the beats are played in this one. That riff… well… after some listening, I'll probably get addicted) QUOTE Para Para Cannibal : ★★★★☆ (Really great one, if it was a little faster haha) QUOTE With A Little Bit Of True Love : ★★★☆☆ (Riff is nice. This track is confusing - gives me some EDM vibes all the way - and then sabi goes back to usual eurobeat. It's a good experience) QUOTE Baby You'll Be My Lover : ★★☆☆☆ (Cute track but vocals on sabi sound a pretty forced, it's a down to earth song overall) QUOTE @ Hot Milk : ★★★★☆ (Favorite HRG track? favorite HRG track. Riff isn't so good but I can get over that) QUOTE !! Full Desire : ★★★☆☆ (Another track that would be better, if faster. Anyway I rarely like Rich Hard songs - with few exceptions. I didn't skip too, wonder why… oh, riff reminds me of "on your wings" which I love) QUOTE @ Hey Chicken : ★★★★☆ (Rimonti always find some weird ways to get inspired and make music. I appreciate that. This song has everything I love in HRG tracks hahaha) QUOTE Let Me In : ★★★☆☆ (Another cute tune and I like this one better. Vocals are also angelic in contrast with the firm beat) QUOTE # Bye Bye Love Night : ★★★★★ (Awesome song! Refreshing and powerful - both vocals and instrumental) QUOTE # Get Yourself The Real Thing : ★★★★★ (Favorite of the album. This song is wonderful: strong vocals, guitars everywhere, superb riff, and great synths floating around)

Wow I almost like very song on this album

Haven't listened to all songs yet. But I must agree that there are promising titles on the disc. But as always ... I will only know when they occupy me car audio system.

So is this not gonna be uploaded? I'm in uni now + just not enough interest to buy the CD anymore

lmao dude shut up

someone will upload it when they feel like it, is you aren't interested in buying it then maybe others arent either

Who wrote that?

???

It's bad enough to be so impatient about rips becoming available, but then to brazenly say you have no interest in buying the CD...

Just cuz of that, now NO ONE is gonna upload it! BOOM! In yo face!

But no really, I understand that not every song on the album is to your tastes (I only like one), but these artists still work hard and put everything into these numbers. Uploading it to here really hurts them money-wise. The people that upload here do it for those that can't afford the discs but still want to hear and support the artists...IN SPIRIT!

No it actually doesn't. If someone pirates an album that doesn't mean it's a lost sale. The reason why Eurobeat fans don't buy the albums legaly is because its either too expansive or they can't obtain it in the first place. Avex is only releasing SEB in Japan so you either have to pay 20€ for the album and then 5-7 € for shipping and maybe also taxes. People can't afford to do that every 2 months.

That's what I'm saying. It's a lot of money. But it's still a lost sale, isn't it? Someone obtained the album and they (Avex) didn't get any money from it when they could have. Some money is better than no money.

No. Here is the difference between 2 mentalities of people that pirate media content:

"I want to buy Product X (Movie, TV Show or Music doesn't matter) but it is not avilable in my country/not avilable as a digital download/not avilable in general and I want to buy it but I can't so I have to pirate it." <---- lost sale. If you want to get a better sense of what such a customer thinks you should read this comic: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/game_of_thrones

"I was never intending to buy the product in the pirst place" <---- Not a lost sale

I (and other people) would buy (more) SEB albums legally if the would offer them in FLAC format worldwide. Avex just doesn't care.

They wouldn't have bought it anyway (either because they were unable or didn't want to), so no, it isn't. You can't get blood from a rock.

Reading my post again I did come across as a dick

I guess what I wanted to say was that I've gotten used to quick uploads and came to the conclusion that it wasn't gonna happen at all this time, which is a bit of a leap

And I can't even explain that last part, just venting I guess. So I apologize

I mean, yeah, if it's something that isn't available in the first place, then sure, I get that. It's not being sold to begin with.

Hmm. I guess I just figured if someone has your product without paying for it that it was a lost sale. Or something close to it. Just...ignore me then?

If no one uploads 231, I'm not going to buy it. I already heard the previews and it sounds pretty shit to me, it's not worth the 40+ dollars I end up spending to import them. If someone does upload it, I'll download it to see if any of the tracks sound better in full, however it's not a lost sale, because I never intended on buying it in the first place.
In fact, it actually encourages sales in the end, because if I find some of the tracks are way better in full, I always go to itunes and buy the ones I like.

That's what I usually do too. I like the idea of supporting things I like, and I like to support my favorite artists. This is far more affordable for me to do than buying the full disc.

And what if it's not on iTunes, like SEB 231?

Then congrats avex, you screwed yourself over. (again)

avex owns everything else so it's w/e

Why don't you try the YouTube playlist? You won't need FLAC audio quality to decide to buy or not. :v

for such a happy genre, the community is some of the most pretentious and bitchy people I seen lmao

The reason why, just recently, I had the courage to create an account and stop lurking: I don't give a f*** anymore hehe

nothing to do with "happy genre" or anything, it's probably because we're freaking small and always the same people since way back.

same "problems" and discussions
same avex
same labels, same producers
all the same
always
