  Daizenshuu EX - Multimedia - Music Database  
     
 

Unfortuantely, it's nearly impossible to host large amounts of multimedia, such as MP3s (as possible two or three years ago). However, it's still important to understand what you're purchasing. Furthermore, what if you've already purchased a CD, and want to know more about it? Here's where the "Daizenshuu EX" Music Database comes in.

Over fifty (50) individual CDs are catalogued, most with full artist, romaji, and English translation information provided. If you are looking for music to download, please check out the "Music Downloads" section. "Daizenshuu EX" has always been about providing some of the best, and truly rare, DragonBall-related music.

CD SINGLES

Various songs from the DragonBall universe have had CD singles released. Most (pre-Budokai) singles are not your typical CDs; they're the tiny, 3 inch CDs that fit into that small groove that you see in your tray-loading CD drives. In addition to being cute, the CD singles usually have karaoke versions of their songs on them, and tend to have either another song from the anime, or another song from that same performer or group. Of special interest are the DragonBall GT opening and ending theme singles, which are just fantastic. [ enter ]

MISCELLANEOUS NON-DRAGONBALL CDs

People say "rare" very loosely these days, but this is the real "rare" deal. Live performances of J-Pop bands doing DB songs, English versions on other CDs, etc. While these CDs aren't released as a part of the DragonBall franchise, they're definitely on the wish-list of many a fan! [ enter ]

DOMESTIC DRAGONBALL CDs

From the early days of Saban onward, we've seen the domestic release of DragonBall CDs. Here, you'll find all sorts of dub music, from Peter Berring's score to the 1995 DragonBall dub, to Shuki Levy's work on the first two DBZ dub seasons, to the latest (and...greatest?) by Bruce Faulconer. They're all on CD for your suicidal pleasure. [ enter ]

BOOTLEG DRAGONBALL CDs

Well, don't buy them. That's pretty simple. You won't find a complete listing of all bootleg CDs; rather, you will find a listing of CDs made by bootleggers that aren't exact copies of CDs that have already been released in Japan. Confused? Exactly! [ enter ]
