Do you remember the first DDR song you played?

all i remember from that dave in busters trip in 2021 was that tutorial and alone by marshmellow i was straight from an FNF phase i kinda got into rhythm games that was the third game i played i will thank the vs Camellia mod devs i would never haved played DDR and any Bemani game without them

Midnite Blaze, actually. Weird, cuz I frankly ain't a fan of that song, but it was on a demo disc with one of the PS2 Dancing Stage releases (I think it was Max? I dunno, I'm not looking up which PS2 Dancing Stage games had the song) that I got in like 2004 or something.

Jam Jam Raggae Basic on a DDR USA machine in early 2006.

The song was terrible and I failed horribly. It’s a wonder I ever found the courage to play the game again.

"After the Game" from DDR Konamix for PS1. Once I played that enough times and got to level 3, enabling me to play bangers like "Absolute" and "AM-3P," I knew my life was changed forever.

"Have you never been mellow" on DDR 1st (AC) (Asian release).

I don't remember the exact song, but it was definitely something from Supernova US CS.

i think keep on movin' on euromix 1 back in december 2023, relatively recently so i remember it like it was yesterday lol, saw a supernova years ago before i got into ddr n stuff but didnt go on it (rip that one cause its gone now) then saw euromix then and was like yes

It was definitely something on Konamix at a friend's house, but the song names were mostly a blur to me back then. One that sticks out to me as a favorite was "ABSOLUTE", though back then I misremembered the title as "ABSOLUTION".

From what I remember, it was most likely Have You Never Been Mellow on DDR for NA PS1. Either that or Boom Boom Dollar, both were memorable picks.

I think my first song was from HOTTEST PARTY 1, though I don't know if it was Lesson By DJ first in Groove Circuit Mode or if it was one of the licenses in regular play.

on a real cabinet, l'amour et la liberte esp on ddr extreme, last year during my trip to south africa

"Dam Dariram," by Joga on DDR Ultramix 2

---

I don't remember exactly but it was in a best hits inside a playstation inside a fake arcade with pads made of buttons, not sensors.
Probably end of 2003.

LOVE♥SHINE on a real cabinet but gave up half way through because I was failing and felt awkward for not being able to play~

Dream A Dream, on DDR MAX 2 US.

Funny story about that, my sister and I always wanted to play a DDR game that had Captain Jack (the song) on a game after finding out it was in DDR, but a speed remix of the original song. We seen someone play it on a DDR Extreme cab, but we couldn't afford playing it at the time. Eventually, we got DDR MAX 2, which was the first ever DDR game we played. We almost gave up on that dream of finding Captain Jack until DDR Extreme 2 came out in 2005, and boy was that game a gem. Anyways, on DDR MAX 2, we saw the words "Captain Jack" but realized it was just another song by the same artist, then we became Captain Jack fans. Good times...

That is a very hard question. I've been playing since I was 6, so that would be since 2003. However, I believe the first song I got a AA on was either Heaven or Ghosts on Beginner in MAX2. Ran into my sister's room and woke her up in excitement haha.

Visited this site again after some years and I miss it. Anyway, here's my answer:

My age was probably around 5 to 8 years old when I first encountered a DDR machine and that was in the late 90s to the early 2000s. The 2nd mix was the popular installment that time, like tv shows from where I live even held contests for DDR matches. Moreover, some pros were occupying the machine but were willing to play with casuals like me that time. Ofc, I sucked and didn't know how the game works and I felt like butting in with one pro player there dancing to either Dub I Dub or Hero.

I don't remember exactly which song was the very first I ever tried, but it was something on USA or 3rd Mix, and was probably something that was too hard to start with, making me fail almost immediately, I reckon maybe End of the Century or Dead End or Dynamite Rave if not one of the PARANOiAs... maybe Stomp to my beat or BRILLIANT2U?

Yes, 1998 BEG on a Supernova AC Europe cab about 4 years ago. I did not clear it.

It was either LOVE LOVE SUGAR or Diving on EXTREME for the PS2.
