iamthek3n Selections: The Collection

Now to start off this category... the first simfile!

Yes I'm aware there are a simfiles of this on this site, but I personally want to do this one. I probably screwed up the audio file at the end as I want to do a fade out at the end, but it doesn't really take away the gameplay.

Feedback is appreciated as I'm starting to get the hang off the simfile making scene.

16/02: SONG Added

First revision file to the pack, this was originally submitted in Summer Contest '16.

I felt like reworking this file in an attempt to improve on a few things, such as the steps.
I also change the graphics for the banner and BG as I wasn't exactly as fond of them like I was before. Also the MV has improve that doesn't totally look like it was made in Movie Maker.

23/02: SONGS Added

These songs were submitted for the Summer Contest '16 before and I want to fix them up. I'm pretty satisfied with their improvements made.


Songs 3-5 of 24 for Selections I
Max Elto - Backyard Animals [Deep House]
Mari Ferrari - Hello, Hello [Deep House]
Perfume - Polyrhythm [Electropop (or J-Pop)]

12/03: SONGS Added

One new + one old.

The old file being...

Just fixed up a few things for and is completely axed. Also changed the audio file to .ogg. Honestly I like this file a lot even if it has its own fault.

Now the new one...

When I heard this song, I thought I'll try stepping it and see how it goes. Unlike Pluto is an amazing producer and this is actually the 2nd song in his "You" trilogy which are released on Monstercat.

UPDATE 25/03: NEW SONG
Well... I guess it's time to reveal a new song, huh?


This was actually going to be my entry for Z-I-v Battle Royale 2017 MISSED CONNECTIONS in Round 1 (as well as another song I had in mind), but my internet was down and the deadline has past already. That being said, this is going to be a part of ROOK's upcoming community pack entitled "TRVPHOUSE COLLAB PACK".

mainly follows Marshall's rap while goes to the beat. I have a soft spot for hip-hop music.

This does contain a video file so let me put a warning for those going to play this one...
WARNING: NSFW VIDEO IS NSFW!!!
No seriously. Even if the MV is censored, it still shows exposed breasts and a grotesque scene with Eminem and loads of women in bikinis near the end of this MV cut.
I would say the lyrics are also dirty, but it's obvious why I wouldn't really need to say why.
The video does have a young, shirtless Marshall, so... I guess that's a plus?

UPDATE 13/04: TWO NEW SONGS
Well I thought doing late night simfiling was a good idea, so here's two of those.

Those add to a total of 10 songs of the 24 for Selections I. The slushii simfile was actually one of the older ones (same can be said for Take Care, but it was a bit later down the line) I was working on, so a lot has been revised for both as it began around I didn't have much of a clue at making stepcharts.

UPDATE 25/04: ONE OLD + ONE NEW


Rowdy is another old file I worked on. I'll admit that file (or that genre, specifically) was a bit difficult to make charts out of. Its + charts contain rolls. The whole simfile uses scrolls, mines, and a warp + stop.
SUMMER CONTEST '17 phase
16/06 BONUS Song during Summer Contest phase
Well since it's been a while since the simfile category is updated, I'll give you guys a bonus song to keep you occupied.


I first listened to Nhato when his album Etude was released. The first track I heard from him is Hello World (which was promoted on the YouTube channel Tasty Network).

Now that I heard this song, it was really good. And the extended mix of it was really great.

I'll admit it's not perfect, so it may need some fixing up to do. It has rolls too for . It does have its IIDX video in the custom .zip, so enjoy.

18/06 ANOTHER BONUS Song during Summer Contest phase


Old file I had been working on for months now. So this adds to the total of 14 of 24 for Selections I

24/06 THE UPDATE during Summer Contest

Lots of fixing went into the two recent simfiles. Namely...

Jan Level - I Believe
10 -> 9
New graphics for banner + background



Nhato - Beyond the Seven
5 -> 4

and now a new file.


Yep. Another one of those old files I had laying around in my WIPs. This is the song that somewhat got me into the world of trap music.

UPDATE 01/07: ANOTHER UPDATE during Summer Contest phase

Fixed patterning for:
Skrillex - Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites (all charts)
Drake ft. Rihanna - Take Care (all charts)
Max Elto - Backyard Animals ( + )


The song I first heard of BIGBANG. Bloody hell that was a long time ago by now.

The charts follows heavily on vocals. - has rolls.

UPDATE 19/07: Update b4 the Selections I RELEASE
Well Summer Contest is over and I didn't make it into the VIP room (well I wasn't going to make it in anyway). I'm going to upload the SC files (and a fresh simfile) that are, what I felt, ready for Selections I at some point in the near future. For now, I made some changes to some of those that have been uploaded in the category. They're mainly fixes for the patterning to fit for pad play.


Go ahead and re-download these files if you have those already. I'll probably make a separate post for Selections I release when the remaining 8 are uploaded.

UPDATE 21/07: The day Selections I is finally released!
Yes you read the title update right. Selections I is now complete!


you know the deal, click one of the jackets and it should take you to the simfile page.

Now for the last song to be on Selections I... actually I'm not even going to bother with the big reveal. Here it is, anyway.


...yeah it's probably for the best if you don't ask why I stepped this.

Actually, it's better if you do ask because I was basically testing this as a joke for myself (honestly was hoping there was a [You Won't See This in DDR] for this year's SC so I can submit this, but unfortunately that didn't happen).

If you don't know who Funhaus are, they were Inside Gaming during the Machinima days and are now under Rooster Teeth.
They are a gaming channel, mainly, where they usually do Demo Disk (where they play video game demos on a disk), Open Haus (where the fans ask questions provided on Reddit), Dude Soup (their own podcast where they talk about the current things in video games), and so on and so forth.

This is basically a parody on Seal's Kiss from a Rose and I made a cut of this from their gameplay video of Back in 1995: which you can view here:


I think maybe rating as a 7 may be a bit too generous. Probably an 8.

Annnd I'm back!

This is going to kick off the start of the journey to Selections II. I actually got a lot of WIPs I'm working on at the moment, but I got four ready to start us off.


Songs 1-4 of 24 for Selections II (also basic info)
Donk Terrorist - Freaky Boyz [Scouse] (old file that started around late 2015. This is from Rhythm Control 2)
Britney Spears - Inside Out [Electropop] (them dubstep wubs in this)
Jason Derulo - Insomnia [Electro R&B] (unreleased autotune song from JASOOOON DERUUUUULO)
Boyinaband ft. Veela - Midnight (Pop Song Made in a Day) [Electropop] (recommend downloading the custom .zip in its simfile page)

These 4 are more of a taster for what's to come for Selections II.
UPDATE 6/09: New SONG

UPDATE 16/09: ONE Update + 3 NEW Songs

Made some patterning fixes for Hellberg's All The Way across all difficulties.

I also got 3 songs to be put into Selections.


Songs 6-9 of 24 for Selections II (also basic info)
Ephixa & Stephen Walking - Matches ft. Aaron Richards [Tropical House] (tropical vibes from the 2 Canadian producers. Released for Monstercat's 5th Anniversary)
The Chemical Brothers - Midnight Madness [House] (shorter ver. of "Electronic Battle Weapon 10")
Ariana Grande remixed by TRONICBOX - One Last Time -1985 version- [80s Pop] (what happens when you place a modern popstar in an 80's setting?)
Sidenote: I have decided I will enter Z-I-v Simfile Tycoon that is coming up soon. Not sure if I will do all weeks, but I'll see (it's basically dipping your toes into foreign waters, you know what I mean?). Adding on to that, when the contest ends I will upload the simfiles made during the contest into the category (if I think it's good). I also will upload a my skeletons into my archive category (fittingly titled "iamthek3n's Cutting Room Floor". yeah that's news to you, huh?) Okay? Okay.
27/09: NEW Song

This marks the first long song for Selections. And it's in full. I love this song. It's emotional and the shift in tone from the beginning to the end, fantastic.

Special thanks to darkanine for syncing this one. Without him, this simfile won't happen. It has 60 BPM changes in this simfile thanks to him.

also I updated Midnight Madness' heavy chart since the beginning patterns were wonky as hell
22/10: NEW Songs

12/11: NEW Songs from the DUTCH
a couple of extras that i stepped during my spare time. this is the dutch update, apparently.


01/08: NEW Song to start off the year
welcome to 2018, me (and everyone else). Here's the first simfile for the year in this category with a taste of autotune and hip-hops


UPDATE 26/01: AUSTRALIA DAY Update

fixed that one note in for I'm Sprung that disrupted the flow and patterning.
and now for the new simfile...

raggae + r&b really do fuse well together, huh.

thanks darkanine for the cut and sync!
UPDATE 05/02: After Simfile Tycoon Update

Well. Simfile Tycoon just finished. Apparently I have 9 free spaces available to fill for Selections II, so I'll upload the ST files to my category after some adjustments and playtesting. For now, I'll just add the 16th simfile for Selections II. First things first, though:

- Midnight (Pop Song Made in a Day): Tidied up the steps a bit in and add some notes near the end that goes to the beat.
- Wedding Bells: Fixed the patterning a bit and adjusted the note placement in .

Just redownload .sm + .scc files and replace the prev. ones if you have those two already.

Alright, now for the simfile.


One of my faves from Cashmere Cat's debut album '9'. Very melodic and euphoric. mainly follows Ariana's vocals.
UPDATE 13/02: The day Selections II is finally released! (a.k.a After Simfile Tycoon Update Pt. II)
...and with the simfiles from Simfile Tycoon, Selections II is now complete!

well then... I guess it's time, huh?

Well this is pretty much a 'After Battle Royale' update to start off Selections III, really. This Selections also marks the use of X-Scale for the first time (though I'm still rating them Classic scale just for consistency. X-Scales will now be included in the simfile description). Anyway, 3 songs from the contests and a new one to keep it a bit fresh.


Songs 1-4 of 24 for Selections III (also basic info)
Cashmere Cat - 9 (After Coachella) ft. MØ & SOPHIE [Experimental Trap]
(there's a chart added to reflect on SOPHIE's production. Speaking of...
CLANG CLONG CLANG CLONG CLANG CLONG CLANG CLONG CLANG-CLANG CLONG)
Sumire Uesaka (上坂 すみれ) - POP TEAM EPIC [J-Electro]
(gave it some spanking new gfx since I kind of dislike the ones I did for the contest)
Vic Mensa - New Bae [Hip-Hop]
(new bae.)
DJ Snake ft. Bipolar Sunshine - Middle (San Holo Remix) [Electronic][Future Trap]
(the one file that is actually new in this update. I honestly wonder what genre is this sometimes... It's Future Trap [thanks RIME])
UPDATE 24/04: ◢ ◤

Even after days of Avicii's death, I still feel down. I didn't really know him. I like his music. It shows he has passion for the art.
I Could Be The One is definitely my favourite from Avicii, and it introduce me to Nicky Romero and his discography. This is basically my tribute to him as a way to say thank you for your music and hope you rest easy now. A goddamn shame to see you gone so soon.

UPDATE 6/05: NEW Song (b4 Summer Contest commences...)
so Summer Contest basically starts tomorrow (or to be more accurate, about 9 hours as of this post) and I thought might as well give you a freebie before that happens.


The original mix is basically one of my favourite trance tracks I've heard and this melodic dubstep take by William Black holds up to the original, at least that's what I think. It goes for 1:18, so it's a pretty short sanctuary stay.
UPDATE 16/06: 2 new songs


UPDATE 2/07: 2 New Songs and an update

Well I guess this is technically "Summer Contest songs that'll never get a chance to be submitted to the main contest" update.

First of, I Could Be the One's chart has an update where mines are included to indicate a footswitch.

Now for the 2 songs.


UPDATE 7/07: Changes and a new song
so, another update and it's not even a full week since the last... oh well. anyway.

Just Dance's chart rating changed from 8 -> 7, lot of changes in the note placements to incorporate spins in some areas of and added a few more notes in the same chart.
We Don't Talk Anymore's chart had a few changes in note placements (particularly around the beginning) for better pad play.

and now for a new song.

Shoutout to my brother for introducing me to Chance... the rapper.
UPDATE 14/07: 2-Songs UPDATE


I honestly might do a chart for Unbreakable some time, so look out for that when an update for that simfile comes.

Also, thanks TiKAL for helping with the sync at the end for Sugarless GiRL.
UPDATE 27/07: The Hip-Hop Song Additions and an update

Well Unbreakable finally got it's chart. Also fixed up some patterning issues in for that.

And new songs.



I'm going to fix up some simfiles I've released on Summer Contest before Selections III will be available.
UPDATE 11/08: AFTER Summer Contest update... and Selections III COMPLETE!


pour one out for My Boo (triple j Like A Version) not making it in

So yeah. It's done. Selection III's finished. Now excuse me while I make a seperate thread for that one. All done.

Get ready for the next level.

It's that time again for the road to Selections IV. Got the (I guess traditional) 4 songs to start off.


DJ Satomi - Castle in the Sky [Eurodance]
David Guetta, Martin Garrix & Brooks - Like I Do [Electro Future House]
Far East Movement - 우산 (Umbrella) feat. Hyolyn & Gill Chang [Future K-Pop]

UPDATE 4/10: 2 NEW Songs



UPDATE 8/11: NEW Song and an update

Update to Yume wo Miyou: Removed a couple of steps and fixed up the patterning in to go to the song better.

and now for the song.

UPDATE 20/11: (sort of) Song REVIVAL


Remember that file I did with KevinRocker10 for [ZIv Academy II] back in 2016? Well here's a solo take on it. It's a different cut from the contest file, so there's that. Try to spot some similarities between this and the contest file.

This file contains a warp and a stop.
UPDATE 29/11: NEW Song


I always wanted to step something from deadmau5. Unfortunately, some songs were a bit difficult to cut it to a shorter length. Thankfully, this song had a radio edit version and it wasn't much of a pain to make a decent cut out of it.

Listen to the full thing, though. It's a nice progressive tune.
UPDATE 11/12: NEW Song

UPDATE 20/12: NEW Song for the Summer

UPDATE 25/12: The Paris & Simo UPDATE
Yep this update has nothing to do with Christmas, but I've decided to upload two new simfiles to the category (cause I'm a bit of a jolly mood).


UPDATE 9/01: 2019 UPDATE of Selections IV
2 weeks since last update, eh? Meant to finish off Selections IV before 2019 comes around, but whatever. No big deal. Anyway, last 4 songs.


中村あゆみ (Ayumi Nakamura) - 風になれ (Kaze Ni Nare) [Rock]
London Grammar - Metal & Dust [Trip Hop]
SKYrise - particles [Future Bass]
Dada Life - We Want Your Soul [Electro House]

A separate thread for Selections IV will be here soon, so stay tuned. It's here!

Yep you read this right. Selections V will start February next month. I'm only uploading a file to the category because it's Australia Day today and I wanted to upload something on this day. Consider this a teaser track for what's to come for Selections V.


This is about as Aussie as it gets. Appropriately uploaded on Australia Day.

Happy Straya Day to those outside of the land down under.
Alright. Now we begin. On the 4th of Ferbruary.

The official start to Selections V with 4 new songs to kick off.

The files from Simfile Tycoon will be uploaded to the Selections category as soon as I fix up some of them and if I am satisfied with them. For now, here's another 4 to add to Selections V.

press F to pay respects for Function #05 not making it in

Also here's 2 new songs as a small bonus.


UPDATE 22/03: The POP Update



Also, I updated i like and Youngblood's charts. Info on that should be in their respective simfile pages.

Also also, hey we're nearly complete with Selections V with just two simfiles left.
Now... onto the final update for Selections V.

UPDATE 28/03: The FINAL Selections V Update
Well that was quick. Look how much time has passed by since I started with Selections V. Now here we are with the last two songs for this Selections.



And that's it! Selections V is done. And now to set up a seperate page for it to download the whole package...

Selections V page has arrived

Oh boy! Here I go sim-charting again!

Yep. Another day. Another start to Selections VI. And with 4 songs to start off as usual.


Billie Eilish - bad guy [Trap Pop]
Eric Prydz - Call on Me [Progressive House]
Edward Maya feat. Vika Jigulina - Desert Rain [Progressive House]
SHAUN - Way Back Home [Tropical K-Pop]
UPDATE 28/04: The Emotional Pop Update


UPDATE 30/05: A 4-Song Update a.k.a. One Month Later...

Yeah, been a bit busy with real life stuff, focusing on my studies in art school, as well as taking part in Summer Contest whenever I have spare time. Anyway, after a whole month has passed, I think you all deserve 4 new files to make up for it.


Kids See Ghost feat. Pusha T - Feel the Love (yes i actually stepped this) [Psy Hip-Hop]
Masayoshi Iimori - Hella Deep (hope you like gimmicks because there's a lot of them) [Freestyle]
이달의 소녀 (LOOΠΔ) - Love Cherry Motion (Choerry's debut to the LOOΠΔverse) [K-Pop]
Major Lazer feat. Vybz Kartel - Pon de Floor (the one that Beyoncé sampled from for 'Run the World (Girls)') [Dancehall]
UPDATE 30/06: 2 NEW Songs


UPDATE 22/07: Selections VI COMPLETE

Well, Summer Contest's over. At least for me. And I have two spaces to spare after uploading the rest of the files I did for the contest. And so I did.

If you smeeeeellllllllll wehat the k3n is cooking?

Yes. After a whole month and a half without any updates from the simfile category, it's time for a new set of Selections for number 7. Let's start off with 4 new ones as tradition at this point.


That Kid - BOYFRIEND [Bubblegum Pop]
Mohombi - Bumpy Ride [Dancehall]
Ravenna Golden - Eyes on Me [Electropop]
Mikkas & Amba Shepherd - Finally [Electro Trance]
UPDATE 22/09: Between Two Sides UPDATE
Time to unveil 2 new songs.


UPDATE 3/10: The Australian UPDATE
So... I got two new simfiles to add on top to the category. This time, it's time to explore what Australia has to offer.


UPDATE 24/10: It's Charli, baby.
Yep. I don't have a clever name for this update. It's another Charli XCX song.


One of my favourites from Charli. The album. Even though the song leaves a lot to be desired, I did end up listening to this on repeat. It's up there with Silver Cross, Gone, Next Level Charli and many others from her album.

Contains warps so I don't know if it works for older versions of Stepmania.
UPDATE 5/11: The French are Coming!

Yep. This update is all about France and the music they have over there. Good thing we have two songs that fit into different eras of music.

First one, from 1999 (or 2000 if you didn't live in France at the time)...

And from the current year that is 2019...

Wow those two tracks are 10 years apart, I just realised.
UPDATE 22/11: A Tribute to Fabio XB


One of my favourite trance tunes and it has been 2 years time since I started making a simfile for this song. A bit of a shame that one of the most prominent DJs in the trance scene, Fabio XB, has passed away recently due to a long-standing battle against leukemia. This is a tribute to him and his music.

Recommended listening:
Fabio XB- You
Fabio XB feat. Yves De Lacroix - Close To The Stars
Fabio XB & Liuck feat. Christina Novelli - Step Into the Light (the song that I was introduced to him and Liuck as well as the vocalist)
Martin Roth & Alex Bartlett ‎– Off The World (this one's a mix of MR's Exclusive Intro Mix and Gareth Emery Remix)
UPDATE 21/12: End of 2019 UPDATE
Yep. You read this right. This will be the last Selections update of 2019. Will be taking a break from uploading this category for a while or at least until Simfile League finishes. Anyway, here's two simfiles to keep yourselves occupied.


Well I guess the hiatus is over, huh?

UPDATE 15/01: A New Year, Same Old Crap

Okay not really same old, but I do have 2 new ones plus I updated Fais Beleck's chart to adjust two notes from 12ths to 16ths.

Anyway, the two new songs!


UPDATE 27/01: The Oolacile DOUBLE FEATURE

...also updates to BOYFRIEND and Not About You on their charts.


Yes they're both from the same EP, so give it a full listen if you're into this genre.
UPDATE 3/02: Selections VII... COMPLETE!

Just about 3 days after the first month of 2020 has ended, the seventh Selection is now done!


Now... with those 5 from the Simfile League, we've now reach the end of Selections VII.

Starting off in Venezuela, then to England, next stop at the Netherlands, coming up next is Italy, and to end it off, Japan. Now to end of this journey, where do we stop for this last song? Hungary.


Yeah. The one in Eurovision 2018. A lot of angst and edge into this Hungarian metalcore track (which actually stood out compared to most entries). This also marks the first simfile to break the 10 scale tradition.

...wait it's been two months since since Selections VII was finished? and we should get some things out for the next one? ...okay

Yeah... honestly didn't expect a whole two months break between the previous one and now, but here we are. Welcome to the beginning of Selections VIII! This time, 8 songs are going to kick off the start since there was a lot of time between this and the previous one.


And unintentionally, I made 4 themes with two songs together.

UPDATE 02/06: A Month without Internet

Hello. As the title of the update suggests, the Internet is down at my house, and it still is actually as of this post. I actually tried uploading something over my phone using mobile data (would not recommend), and turns out it works, so here it is.

Twitter for Android has it's video switched to the original source, thus having to adjust the video offset. Also, pattern adjustments in

unravel has a new chart and adjusted video offset.

And a new file!


okay turns out the internet issues were fixed just today, so here's another file to add onto the collection!

UPDATE 16/06: A Mood Divided



With that, we are now 2 songs left for Selections VII to be complete.
UPDATE 27/06: The 130 BPM Update

Well... I guess it's time to finish Selections VIII with two 130 BPM songs.



So yeah. There we go. Selections VIII is done. Now, I'm going to take a break from uploading simfiles to the category for 2-3 months. Mainly so I can rest my brain from making these, and also because I'm still participating in the Summer Contest, as of this post.

Alright, now that it has been almost two months, let's begin the next set of Selections.

Here to kick off Selections IX, we have two files from Summer Contest 2020 and two new ones.

From here on out, I'm going to be doing some Dancerush-styled charts for some simfiles here and there, because I personally enjoy making them and people seem to like SKY's the limit chart from the contest. So hope you look forward to those.

Alright. It's time to begin Selections XI. A bit of a longer break than usual, but here we are. Since the main portion of Summer Contest ended and the VIP portion of it is at the endgame, I thought we'll start off Selections XI now with 4 songs to kick off.
