Literally just me gushing about eurobeat

Y'know what? Tumblr, you get a little treat. I don't have much better of a place to post something long-winded like this, so here we are.

I love eurobeat music. Big surprise from the girl with it in her handle, right? But I don't just love one kind of eurobeat. No, I'd go so far as to say I love it all. This genre becomes an absolute buffet of delightful, energetic, silly fun when you forget about trying to look for ways it "doesn't count", and try to look for the ways it does.

I love early eurobeat! I love the stuff that's indistinguishable from early Italo Disco, the formative things where the tempo was still low and the disco vibes were still high! That's Eurobeat and the first few volumes of Super Eurobeat are great for this!

I love later eurobeat, too! Even if some of the sounds aren't always my favorites, I love that folks were trying new things and dabbling with new sounds, experimenting in ways that in previous years seemed prohibited! Comparing some aliases who have been going for multiple decades from this period to when they started is also super fun!

I love traditional eurobeat, if I could pick a name for it! Faster, more rave-influenced, whether or not it's still got some disco elements in it, themes about nightclubs and love and loss and betrayal and that ever-ubiquitous fire! Maharajah Night has some great examples, leading into the bulk of pre-200 Super Eurobeat volumes!

I love J-Euro! It turns out, folks in Japan have different ideas and tastes and approach the genre VERY differently than the folks in Italy do, and I love how it sounds! I love how the sound design is so different and the speed jumps a little higher!

I love indie eurobeat! I love hearing how new and amateur producers take a crack at the sound, and seeing what folks do as the tools for making it grow and evolve! Even virtual versions of the synths the masters used to use are available now, and it's fantastic to hear how those things sound in new hands! I love the ways indie producers bend, break, and work around the rules of the genre and still deliver a uniquely "eurobeat" experience! Without this category, I would never have found DJ Command, DJ Bouche, Turbo, Vikas Beatbox, the Galaxian Recordings crew, and so, so many more!

I love happy eurobeat! The nature of the genre makes it so straightforward to pair its signature energy with joy, delight, empowerment!

I love sad eurobeat! That very same energy that powers joy and happiness can be just as powerful for driving home sorrow and sadness, and some lyrics even carry strong emotional weight (we're well past the days of eurobeat being only about Burning Love Car Baby Fire Desire Tonight Drift Tokyo, y'know)!

I love fandom eurobeat! Yup! Vocaloid, Touhou, MLP:FiM, Vtubers; whatever you may be a fan of, chances are good there's a eurobeat remix out there (or even an original) that suits your fancy!

I love Initial D eurobeat! How could I not, right? The classics are classics for a reason, and eurobeat and drift racing are a uniquely fantastic pair. Of all the things eurobeat could be about, it's one of a few that really knock it out of the park!

I love feminine eurobeat! Masculine eurobeat is great too, but it already gets a lot of love in the other categories, so I want to celebrate those eurobeat songs that feel quite the opposite while still being perfectly eurobeat! Eurobeat is broad enough to express feelings like this, too!

I love songs that aren't quite eurobeat, but have elements of it! And I love eurobeat songs that heavily include elements from other genres, too! Eurobeat is like any other genre-- it has not always had the same chances to rub shoulders with other sounds in the dance space, but when it does, some wonderful things happen! And the whole music world is enriched for that cross-pollenation!

I love the songs I used to dislike! To think I'd go from vastly disliking Norma Sheffield's discography, to adoring it so fully! Disliking "Higher Higher More and More" to seeking it out from time to time! Not being fond of SAIFAM/BBB's style, to knowing some of its songs by heart!

And most of all, I love that I get to MAKE this stuff for a living! I do not take the fact that this could've not worked out trivially, and I hope I've rewarded your patiences well with a lot of new favorites and starting points for diving deeper into the genre over the last... almost 20 years, now!

And that's just the tip of the iceberg! I understand some eurobeat isn't to everyone's taste, but I think if you haven't tasted all that there is out there, you owe it to yourself to see how you feel about it. You might be pleasantly surprised!

Odyssey Eurobeat: For the first line of the chorus i've written 'I'm howling at the moon', a reference to the long association between the moon and insanity. 'Lunacy' is derived from this association, the phases of the moon having been believed to induce change in people on Earth.

Odyssey Eurobeat: Okay, I need one more line to fill out this chorus. Something really meaningful and chaotic. Something totally fucked up that only a god of chaos could create.

Odyssey Eurobeat, looking out the window and seeing a napping dog: Hmmm

Hi, I'm Odyssey Eurobeat.

I'm a Eurobeat producer and Vtuber. You might know me as

Ken Blast (short for Kendra, on Initial D and Super Eurobeat)

T Stebbins (I'm on T-blockers now so it's just Stebbins :^) )

Eurobeat Brony (made the "Discord" song that @livingtombstone remixed)

DNA Team (Toho Eurobeat)

Jessa

Ask me questions here, if you'd like. I used to be a lot more active on this platform, but now's one of those days I've come back to visit for a spell. Tumblr still looks surprisingly good. I hope you're all still doing well. 💖

Brony Song Tournament Quarterfinals

Discord (remix) is possibly the most famous brony song, both within and outside the fandom. It was in the top 3 landslides every single round. This Living Tombstone remix of an Odyssey Eurobeat song about Discord has beaten: two songs about Discord, an Odyssey Eurobeat song and a Living Tombstone song.

youtube

and it's going against: Discord!

Discord (original) is the original song that the song above is a remix of, putting it in the strange position of being both kind of the most popular brony song while also being overshadowed by said remix. The songs it has beaten aren't nearly as similar as those of its competitor: a Rainbow Dash Presents song, a song about Rainbow Factory, a Vylet Pony song, and a song about Sweetie Bot. Not all of these were landslides, but none were super close.
