Fascinating meeting of genres here! Speaking to the connection between Eurobeat and Japan, I found hyper-techno's popularity in Japan so intriguing. I love your blog.
What is it with Japan and Eurobeat ? There are also a number of Belgian eurobeat artists that have enjoyed japanese success. Japan is (or was at that time) the second biggest music market after the Us, so success in Japan could be important.
We want to write about Eurobeat, it’s a very fascinating evolution of Eurodisco’s power. The italo act known as Rosa is virtually unknown to mainstream audiences but it’s big in the Japanese Eurobeat scene (it has its own wiki entry)
There’s also the Schlager-derived Eurobeat subdivision 🚀🚀🚀

Thank you for reading! We did another crossover article last year limited to Italy and German-speaking countries though
