Turn the Beat AroundBlack Eva
As you’ll hear, it’s a very classic Eurobeat style, so it’s perfect for anyone who wants an upbeat, high-energy track.
It’s packed with a sense of speed! The melody is very straightforward, and I think it really appeals to Japanese listeners.
Since it became a staple for para para and was quite popular, it was included on many compilation albums in Japan and became well-loved.
Speaking of Black Eva, “LOVE ON INTERNET” is also very popular, so if you’re into this style, definitely give it a listen.

The phrase that sticks with me is that it’s a ‘cute song.’ I think the intro gives you that feeling, but as the track progresses, it gradually shifts into something more and more powerful.
I don’t think it was much of a hit in Japan, but it’s definitely a song I’d love for you to know.
Get-A-WayMAXX
A track released as a single in 1993 by MAXX, a Eurodance duo from the ’90s.
It became a hit in Canada, Australia, and various European countries.
It was sampled in Shaun Baker’s 2000 track “On a Helium Trip.”
I Got To Give It UpMasterboy
Masterboy is a German Eurodance and techno group that was active from 1990 to 2003.
This track was released as a single in 1994.
It became a hit in Australia and several European countries, reaching No.
17 on the Finnish charts.
Freedom (Global Extended Mix)globe
KEIKO’s voice, with its range and slight huskiness, really is cool.
Everyone knows they’re a monster artist—with a Japan Record Award and double million sales—and once again I was reminded of just how amazing Tetsuya Komuro’s songwriting and arrangements are.
