Super Best Files 1995–1998 is the second compilation album by J-pop duo Two-Mix, released by King Records on December 21, 1998. The album covers the duo's singles, B-sides, and other tracks from 1995 to 1998. At the time, it was considered to be an unofficial release, as the duo had left King Records and signed with Warner Music Japan earlier that year. The album has since been listed as an official compilation following the release of the 2002 box set Two-Mix Collection Box: Categorhythm.[1][2]
