Taken from bemanistyle.com

A whole slew of new information has popped up in the new issue of Arcadia (the April issue for those of you who are interested).

First and foremost, the release date for the home version of beatmaniaIIDX 14 GOLD has been set: May 29. Already confirmed for the special edition pack this time around include the Beatnation Summit Live DVD (in place of a Visual Emotions disc) and a special GOLI-designed box. More additions are expected, like the rumored Beatnation Records 2nd Conclusion album. Two collaboration songs are also announced:

SHINING RAVE / Guilt & Love / The Plastic Ambition (jun & DJ YOSHITAKA)
FULL ON / Chain of Pain / kors k VS Nekomata Master+

Secondly, a Maya artbook has been announced, entitled "puzzle / MAYA TAKAMURA's pieces," also set for release on May 29th alongside GOLD CS. It has been confirmed that the book will include a video DVD, perhaps in a similar manner to the DVD included with Goliallize.

Finally, an L.E.D. album has been announced, entitled "電人K" (Denjin K). Nothing else is known at this time.

Interesting collaborations.

KORSK AND NEKOMATA MASTER!?
WIN!
Jun and Yoshikita should also be very interesting.

I think the highlight of this is is the Maya artbook. I've been wanting one for so long now. I couldn't really care less for L.E.D's album though, I'd prefer a second conclusion, since the first was so awesome.

---

Didn't I post on this earlier?

---

You posted in the IIDX Sticky.

I like SMILE.dk music. It looks that they will release a new single. That's great!
This week has been a good one, for me. I've finally played DDR SN2 (PS2-JP), the Riyu Kosaka album was released 3 days ago (I was waiting fot that!) and I'm glad to see the SMILE.dk news.

Goodbye (^^)v
