Default EGG MUSIC (#39)

This probably won't be of much use to anyone besides me because I usually end up getting the EGG MUSIC digital releases in here before anyone else does, but it won't hurt to make a note of it.

On each EM album page, at the top in the album info, there's an artist list (アーティスト名) that lists every person who worked on the album. As an example, here's the page for the Paca Paca Passion remix album: http://www.amusement-center.com/proj...roduct_id=8995. The artist list there is "DJ MUNEMORI TAKADA, DJ TOHRU TAKAHASHI, JUN ABE, 小西輝男, 相原隆之, 太田義晴, 福す秀俊," which lists both the original composers and remixers (OST tracks and remix tracks are on this album).

What's slightly less obvious is that each individual track on the album also has a page. If you scroll down to the tracklist, each track name is also a hyperlink that takes you to a dedicated page for that track. I only discovered this last night!

Furthermore, on some of the albums (not all), these pages will give you specific artist information for the tracks. Check out the page for track 1, "Cool Dancing <Tohru Takahashi Floor Like Mix>": http://www.amusement-center.com/proj...roduct_id=8996. The only artist listed is DJ TOHRU TAKAHASHI, because he's the remixer for that track. And on the page for the original game version, "Cool Dancing <70’s Disco>," 小西輝男 (Teruo Konishi) is given as the artist because he's the composer.

Again, not every album has specific composer info (here's one that doesn't). And be careful, because as I showed in the previous paragraph, "artist" could mean composer or remixer/arranger depending on the track. But if you end up adding an EGG MUSIC digital release, it's worth checking out the track pages if more than one artist is credited on the album.
