Originally, Time Records, Flea Records and Discomagic were some of the record labels that appeared on the original Super Eurobeat albums. After eight non-stop albums, the series was changed over to Avex Trax.[1]

The final volume originally was considered to be Super Eurobeat Vol.250 but in an interview with SEB Adviser and resident DJ, DJ BOSS (Y&Co. Ltd.) it was confirmed that Super Eurobeat would definitely be continuing, but as a yearly release only, starting with The Best of Super Eurobeat 2019.[2]
