Dance Dance Revolution NEMESetup BASS MIX [Potential Project]

**NOW ACCEPTING SONG REQUESTS. ENDS ON SEPTEMBER 5TH**

Hello all, NEMESetup here. As you can see, I have an idea for my own little project/simfile pack entitled "Dance Dance Revolution NEMESetup BASS MIX". Basically, it's like my own spiritual sequel to Dance Dance Revolution Solo BASS MIX, from 1999. The reason why I say it's a spiritual sequel is because it's mainly going to feature songs from the Dancemania BASS series, just like Solo BASS MIX.

I also want other licenses in this as well, but the songs have to fit the style of the theme, which means the song MUST be danceable, should definitely have that kind of sound where it would be played at a club, and should obviously have some strong bass in the song.

However, since this is a simfile pack, as well as my first one, I'm obviously going to need some help with this. If anyone is interested, I'll need people to help with:
-Cutting Songs (DEFINITELY need someone to do this for me)
-Graphics
-Steps (mainly Single, but if anyone wants to make Double charts, that's perfectly fine with me)

I mainly want the stepcharts to be "DDR style", but Hands are definitely welcome. Mines and Rolls are not needed, though. There's no limit to how many people I'll need to help me; the more, the merrier.

At this point, I don't have a concrete idea of how many songs I want to put in this pack, but here are some songs that I definitely want to work into this pack:

Of course, it could be possible that not all of these songs I listed here will make it into the final product, but hopefully I can make this pack happen, and hopefully I can find some people to help me with this. It would be greatly appreciated. Like I said, if anyone has requests for songs they would like to see in this pack, just let me know. But remember these guidelines:
-Must be danceable
-Should sound appropriate for a club
-The bass should be strong for the majority of the song

Hopefully this pack can become a reality!

I can help you with Graphics...even though I'm not that good... But if you need some reference/ideas I can help you in any way I can...//

You don't think you're that good? Please, I've seen what you've done with the user banners, and your work is fantastic. I definitely appreciate your help. I'll definitely let you know when I may need help regarding graphics.

Awesomeness. Will definetly be downloading this. Nice group banner.

---

Thank you. If you can help me with graphics, or steps, or song cutting, that would be great.

EDIT: Starting today, August 21st, and ending on September 5th, I'm accepting requests on songs that any of you would like to see in this pack. If you think the song follows the guidelines (see the original post if you haven't already), just PM the song to me, and I'll let you know if I think it'll work well in the pack.

No "If You Were Here (Quikman Mix) by JENNIFER?" Blasphemy! XD

Another interesting suggestion: 6-PANEL CHARTS!

---

I can cut songs. Examples below :

XL Dog - Boom Boom Dollar (2:00) Link
Bass distortion on the intro, added an original outro (the version on CD just ends suddenly).
Verse - Chorus - Verse - Chorus
Song is symmetrical. 155 BPM

Pandera - Cecilia (1:35) Link
Chorus - Verse - Verse - Chorus
Song is symmetrical. 100BPM

The sources I used for the songs are really low quality, but I'm pretty sure I can get CD quality versions of most of the songs. I'd like to start trying stepcharts as well, if you don't mind looking over them and improving them afterwards?

I was thinking of also doing 6-PANEL stepcharts, but I'm not sure yet...I'll give it more thought.

Tyma, thanks for expressing interest in helping with cutting songs. All of the songs that I'm planning on using in this pack can be found here: http://www.mediafire.com/myfiles.php

If you can cut more of those, that would be fantastic. Thank you. And just to remind everyone, the job of song cutting is open to anyone, because that is one thing that I really need help with right now.

Link doesn't work

I'll try and do some Boom Boom Dollar steps tonight. Once we have a few files out, I'm sure people will take notice.

Try this link: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=31f7bbe8e6b49fd495af63b7d44918aaa0b289fcd52e60d0

Any requests on what I should get cut first?

If you could work on these songs first:

SHAKE IT UP
DO IT, DO IT (REMIX)
TRUE THAT
IN THE NAVY '99 (LEG UP REMIX)
SHAKE IT DOWN
MAMBO NO. SEX
ROLL, PUMP, SHAKE & RIDE
LATIN SWING
HIHO (HYPERRHYTHM MIX)
MARIA SE FUE
KICK THE CAN
U CAN'T TOUCH THIS (2001 SUPER BASS MIX)
GET OFF

That would be wonderful. Also, there's a couple songs that don't need to be cut, because they're under 2 minutes. I can't remember which ones they are off the top of my head, but if you listen to them all and notice the ones that are under 2 minutes, don't worry about cutting them. Thank you so much.

They're still going to sound crap if they have another song cutting into the start or the end of them, though?

If I remember correctly, the one or two songs in that link that are under 2 minutes don't have that problem.

Wizzzard - Get Off (2009 X-Special).mp3

Wizzzard - Get Off (2009 X-Special) alternative.mp3

Let me know if you want any specific parts of the songs.

Get Off is really, really hard to cut. he first one has a better ending, and it's longer, but I much prefer the alternative cut,

Actually, they were both the same file, but I like what you did with it, so I'll use it. Thank you.

Fixed the second link.

I'll have Mambo No Sex done in a minute

You know what? I'll use the alternative version.

Actually, I'll get a CD source of Mambo Number Sex, because the Dancemania Bass version changes BPM, so it can mix into the next song.

MC Hammer - Can't Touch This (2001 Super Bass Mix)

This speeds up near the end as well, but I managed to keep it a constant (160) BPM, by throwing the last 8 bars in there. You can put steps to it, and I'll make an identicaly version with a better fade-out, when I get a FLAC version of the MP3. Just make sure the steps end at "Stop! Hammertime!"

Nice cut. Thanks. Also, I decided on another song that I want in the pack. Here it is: http://www.mediafire.com/?yzhywzyinzr

If you don't get to cutting it tonight, that's perfectly fine.
