Super Eurobeat Vol.162 Cover Art
Super Eurobeat (Japanese: スーパー ユーロビートHepburn: Sūpā Yūrobīto, abbreviated SEB; officially stylized as SUPER EUROBEAT) is a CD compilation series of Eurobeat music in Japan. The series itself is the longest running music compilation in the entire world. It has been running for over twenty-five years and the current list consists over 240 volumes (not counting the many 'Super Eurobeat presents' albums). Originally, Time Records, Flea Records and Discomagic were some of the record labels that appeared on the original Super Eurobeat albums. The series began as an Italian Beat Freak release. After eight non-stop albums, the series was changed over to Avex and thats when A-Beat C joined in. The first 10 volumes of Super Eurobeat are mostly Italo disco, which is quite different from the modern Eurobeat. The slower beats and serious '80s tone make this music stand out from the rest.[1]
Super Eurobeat - Initial D Non. To view this video download. Spanning a little over an hour. If you're an initial D fan and found the music to be one of the. Jan 24, 2017 I have around 10 gigs of eurobeat on my computer and wanted to share it. I made a torrent of my small collection. The torrent is around 10.3 gigabytes, and contains mostly eurobeat from Initial D. It's a bit of a mess since it's just my personal collection, but I hope you guys like it. Release information. After Super Eurobeat had transferred to Avex Trax, the CDs themselves were released at a constant rate for the most part, save a few instances where two CDs came out the same day and that Super Eurobeat was not produced for a good portion of a year.
The term 'Super Eurobeat' is sometimes misunderstood and misused outside Japan as a music genre (which is synonymous to the Eurobeat genre used in the Japanese market).
The last volume originally was considered: Super Eurobeat Vol.250 but in a recent interview with SEB Adviser and resident DJ, DJ BOSS (Y&Co. Ltd.) he confirmed that Super Eurobeat would definitely be continuing but as a yearly release only.[2]
Most SEB albums feature the same group of artists, most of which are aliases, such as the following: Pamsy, Cherry, Rich Hard, Dream Fighters, Dave Rodgers, Manuel, Hotblade, and more.

Release information[edit]
After Super Eurobeat had transferred to Avex Trax, the CDs themselves were released at a constant rate for the most part, save a few instances where two CDs came out the same day and that Super Eurobeat was not produced for a good portion of a year. In 1994, the original 8 Super Eurobeat albums were also re-released under Avex Trax. The pattern of Super Eurobeat albums were usually 2–3 regular albums, a nonstop album, 2-3 albums, a nonstop album, 2-3 albums, and a large compilation album (usually a request countdown). Since Super Eurobeat Vol. 30, these compilation albums generally fall on every tenth album. Early regular albums contained 13 extended tracks, while starting from Vol. 64, the albums contain 18 CD-edit tracks.
Since the 150s, with the exception of volume 165 (which was a megamix), every SEB became a normal 18 track release with every 10th album being a compilation album with an extra DVD usually containing ParaPara. 150 was an Anniversary mix with Disc 1 being the History of Eurobeat and Disc 2 being the History of J-Euro (this is out of the ordinary), and 160 was a request countdown (like the other tenth albums of the 100s are). This pattern discontinued with the release of 187, in which it returned to the old 13 extended track format.
Number of tracks in each volume, excluding non-stop albums and bonus discs:
- Vol. 9 - 13: 9-10
- Vol. 14 - 32: 12
- Vol. 34: 14
- Vol. 1 - 8 (re-released), 35–62, 187 - 189: 13
- Vol. 64–132, 141–186: 18
- Vol. 134–139: 15, with CD-Extra audios or videos
- Vol. 191–196: 13, with a non-stop megamix track of all songs
- Vol. 197–199: 30 Track Nonstop Megamix
- Vol. 200: 20th Anniversary CD. CD 1 contains a 100-song megamix from the series's history. CD 2 is a mix of popular J-Euro
- Vol. 201–209: 14, 12 extended tracks, 1 J-Euro remix track, and 1 English remix track (usually a Eurock remix)
- Vol. 211–219: 15, 14 extended tracks and 1 remix track.
- Vol. 221 onward: 15 extended tracks, except Vol.222 which had a 16th track because a track on 221 had a mastering error and the correct version was re-released.
The songs are CD-Edits (also called 'SEB Edit' in Japan, and 'Radio edit' overseas) in Vol. 64–186, but extended versions in other releases.
- Vol.241 onward: 15 extended tracks songs CD-Edits have tax out re-released.
- Vol. 246 is the last entry to contain new eurobeat songs with the next four releases being series recap albums.
