DanceDanceRevolution ETERNITY Mix [Default Songlist Released!]

Funny you should mention those two, Chewi...


[ORGANIC MELODY] When the End / Itou Kanako & Watanabe Kazuhiro
2 || 5 || 7
3 || 6 || 9

NOTES:
o There is an alternate banner for this song, edited from the CG used when this song plays on Rai's route. If you prefer that one to this one, all it needs is some renaming and it's good to go! I just used the picture that I did because 1) I used it when I submitted this song to the SC2011, and 2) I used a recolored version of the picture for my When the End (dedicated short) simfile. Yay, continuity!

o This song was originally planned to go in the SLOWBOX in the ETERNITYBOX series. However, I've decided to release it as a standalone simfile. I already have enough in the SLOWBOX. =w=

o I SHIP BARDO X KONOE. LIKE, A LOT.


[AGGRESSIVE CLUB] Judas / Lady Gaga

NOTES:
o I use colors for a reason.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
DanceDanceRevolution ETERNITY Mix is going on hiatus for approximately two weeks! See you in August!

I hope this series is going to be done in August because I would LOVE to see how it comes out. Also, I also hope it's not to Generic. I want to see more styles of music to your mix.

---

ANNOUNCEMENT:
A complete upheaval of the songlist has occurred! While I am keeping certain songs, there are a few that I just CANNOT step... and trust me, I'm trying.
Complete list of removed songs:
o [PLASTIC GRUNGE] Moons of Jupiter (Proto-Mix) / Freezepop
--> In theory, this should work, and I like the steps that I thought that I had. Unfortunately... reality's a bitch. The EXPERT is too easy and the CHALLENGE is too hard. No matter how much I rework it, that's the way it's going to go.
o [2STEP] Give Me A Sign / Shoichiro Hirata feat. "Red"
--> Why did I ever think this would work
o [DANCE RAP] Don't Play Nice / Verbalicious
--> The only thing this brings to the table is the fact that I doubled its BPM. ooh scary
o [APOCALYPSE] Weather Girl / Shiny Toy Guns
--> This would just be another very very generic Shiny Toy Guns song that's slow and 3/5/7 and blehhhh. And no one wants more of that.
o [LATIN TANGO] Americano / Lady Gaga
--> I'm just not feeling it anymore. It would just be a lot of faux-triplets and overall a bad chart.
o [HI-SPEED FANTASY TUNE] SHION / DJ YOSHITAKA*
--> Shion's a bitch. To sync.
o [90S EURO] Run Away / M.C. Sar & The Real McCoy*
--> I honestly don't know why I'm not keeping this one. Probably because it doesn't fit in with any other ETERNITYBOX genres and so I wouldn't be able to release it? But it's low on my roster, so it was bumped down without much foresight... *sigh*

I may, however, bring some of these back. The ones that are starred are the ones that are most likely to come back, but, honestly, I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.
In return for axing these songs, I'm going to do a few more songs that I deem "yay let's do this!" Sorry if you were looking forward to any of these (even if I only did reveal, like, two), and if you really want me to revive any of them, I'll do it, but as things stand now...


I have now updated the front page with the removals and the additions--there are a total of 12 additions and 7 removals, bringing the song list up to 53! Yay!

I will be stepping songs with genres such as [SLIPSTEP], [LOUNGE], [ETHNIC HI-ENERGY] and [FUNKJAZZ ARRANGE]! Look forward to them!

Actually I lied. It brings the total to 52 because I'm also axing:
o [BOSSA ELECTRO] Gymnopedie 009 / Studio Bongo Mango feat. Junko Wada (BE THE VOICE)
--> I just had no ideas for the steps. In retrospect, I probably only added it to the list because I liked the song. -shrug-

ANNOUNCEMENT:
I AM COMPLETELY REHAULING DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION ETERNITY MIX.
What this means is that, while some of the songs that I have chosen will remain, including many licenses, I am going to rely on requests that you, the players, prompt me to step. I've realized that, though a lot of my steps seem nice in theory, when I go to step them, they actually... well, they don't turn out as planned. Therefore, I end up overthinking some and half-assing others when I should be giving my all to every song that I do.

"So," you may be asking, "what does this mean? I mean, you said that you're rehauling it, but how?" Nice question, person-who-talks-to-computers-which-is-a-sign-that-you-really-need-to-get-out-more. I have a lot of licenses that I want to step, as well as a few KOs and DDR edits that I've finished stepping and/or really, really want to release. However, most of the songs that I chose were chosen by going "eh, that seems like it could work", and throwing it in. This includes songs like Le Disko, [ R ], and Chip'n'Riddim.

How this is going to work is that I'm going to reveal all of the songs that I plan on releasing, doing MASSIVE cuts to the songlist. I will put the songs that I've cut under the "SUSPENDED SONGS" header so that you guys have the option of choosing from there to make my life easier (as I've already cut those songs). I will then open my roster of requests to the general public so you can request which songs you want me to step. If I'm inspired by the song, I'll do it, but if I'm not, then... well, I do have the right to shut down your request, let's say. If I do shut down your request, however, you can also request to do a collaboration with me on that song; we'll talk more about that if anyone decides to take me up on that bargain.

The songlist will be changed sometime soon; later, I mean. Not "eventually" which corresponds to "indefinitely", but... later.

Oh! Almost forgot: I have a lot of licenses that I stepped, and I apologize for that... I'm aware that a lot of people like to play BEMANI songs on StepMania, and stepping licenses may or may not undermine that. Therefore, to counteract this, unless I am very very inspired by a license, I will not be taking that many license requests! It's not that I prefer to step BEMANI songs, but this is a release for the public, and I really don't want it to be just a self-serving thing. I want you to like what I do.

Of course, ETERNITYBOX will remain... when, however, it will be released is up in the air.

Wow this is a pretty big update and I have a bunch of songs you can step that I find great. You have been working hard on this pack and a lot of updates have happen'd but your keeping it alive. Great to see, anyways with the songs..

♪ Masaki Endoh / Sketch Switch
♪ Dj TAKA ft. Tomoni / Pandora
♪ The Black Eyed Peas / Where Is The Love?

---

I'll do either Pandora or Where is the Love?, though I'm more apt to do Pandora because I really have enough licenses as it is.
Then again, you never know. If I have enough time, I'll do both.

Cool, it really doesn't matter what you do. I just hope that I see one of those songs on the songlist.

---

Oh, hey. This exists.
So I think that I'm back from hiatus? I don't know... But here's a simfile. And I have four more on the way.


[90s EURO] Run Away / M.C. Sar & The Real McCoy

AHAHAHA I LIE, THIS THING'S BACK.
And I'm still doing Pandora, don't worry.

ANNOUNCEMENT
At this point, we are completely finished with the default songlist for DanceDanceRevolution ETERNITY Mix! All songs hereafter will be unlocked using the elusive ETERNITYBOX feature! ETERNITYBOX is an unlocking feature that allows those who subscribe to DanceDanceRevolution ETERNITY Mix to choose what they want to see next. While I still have requests open, I will present multiple clues to the public here in the thread. Whichever one gets the majority vote will get stepped and released; the other goes into ETERNITYBOX Append, to be released at a later date. (Usually when the next ETERNITYBOX gets unveiled.) And so, here we go with the first ETERNITYBOX!!

ETERNITYBOX APPROACH:
REBOX -- an ETERNITYBOX having to do with remixes of songs already released!
(1) A remix of a Konami Original released in the newest song pack.
(2) A remix of a Licensed Song released in the newest song pack.
(3) A release of a DanceDanceRevolution Revival that has not yet been released in DanceDanceRevolution ETERNITY Mix.
GOGOGO!!

Why are you using pop'n music banners stretched to 256x80 instead of 512x160 UNIVERSE-styled graphics? It's very inconsistent.

---

Because they suck otherwise.

Oh well, you wanted 'em...


Honestly, I prefer the pop'n music ones. But that's just me.

Speak for yourself, I think Shion looks nice.

Since nobody touched the ETERNITYBOX (...really?), it decided to open on its own, revealing a new song!!
Remember, there's a certain aspect of interaction with the ETERNITYBOX system.


[CUTIE ELECTRO] We Can Change (Dirty Androids Remix) / Remixed by Dirty Androids
5 || 6 || 7 || 8
7 || 8 || 10 || 11

[CLUB] That You Like (Kemal Golden Radio) / Sisely Treasure and [UK GARAGE] Jack and Mark Get Busy! / Distant Soundz feat. MC Image have both been added to ETERNITYBOX APPEND. They can come out at any time, so be prepared for anything!

The next ETERNITYBOX comes out today--remember, interaction is key, and you're not restricted to voting for only one release per week (the unlock system would be pretty slow without that).

ETERNITYBOX APPROACH:
BEMANIBOX -- an ETERNITYBOX consisting of BEMANI songs!
(1) jubeat knit APPEND - 6/9/10
(2) jubeat knit - 3/7/9
(3) IIDX Resort Anthem (Lincle Link) - 5/9/12
GOGOGO !!

concon / S-C-U
KUNG-FU MAMA / seiya-murai feat. ALT
Thunderbolt / Rairyu

First one could work but isn't it.
The others will be released later on--got 'em right, I mean.

The first one is either STELLAR WIND or FLOWER.

---

Sorry for the late update--hopefully the extra file makes up for the wait.

(I was originally going to make this chart not hard.
Oh well.)

In any event, due to the fact that the ETERNITYBOX for this week is now empty, the normal unlocks for Saturday (I update on Saturday? Sure why not) will be the ETERNITYBOX APPEND songs from last week--that is, the songs that didn't get unlocked last week but were supposed to have been. There'll be a new chance for three to four new songs next week, though, so keep a look out!

Sorry for the late update, but here are some of this week's standard unlocks / last week's unreleased songs from the ETERNITYBOX!

...Just because the default songlist is completed doesn't mean that licenses can't be unlockables. It worked for Rhythm & Police (K.O.G G3 MIX), it'll work for me.

DIVERSITYBOX: This ETERNITYBOX has to do with the DIVERSE SYSTEM collection of BEMANI remixes!
(1) Synonymous with "pornography computer".
(2) Real, live breakbeats!
(3) A very chill song that seems to have been resurrected...

GOGOGO!!

Also, a quick side note--I would really appreciate feedback from you guys that are playing the files. It helps me know which songs you like, and which you don't. Without your feedback, I might be continually putting out songs with terrible charts unless I know what to improve upon! Also, if you want me to step a certain song, just say so and you might see it stepped later on in the pack...! So yeah, let me know how I'm doing; it's greatly appreciated!

Holy shit, High? I love that song! It's a shame files of it are so hard to come by, outside yours...
Anywho, Eternitybox:
Strip Machine / Atomic
As for the other two, I've got nothing.

Yep. But since I'm not going to release only one song before the release date (all three have to be correctly guessed in order for the ETERNITYBOX to be released in full), I'll up another song, including the first ETERNITYBOX Special!

...Okay, I'll admit it. My upload patterns make. No. Sense. I should set some patterns for the updates:

(1) All ETERNITYBOX updates will be on Fridays.
(2) The exceptions of the above are when all three songs in the ETERNITBOX are guessed during the week, when all of the guessed songs will be released.
(3) Whenever a single ETERNITYBOX song is guessed but is NOT the final song (culminating in (2) ), a song is released.
(4) All other updates will be on Wednesdays.

okaycool.

Unfortunately, today's updates aren't quite ready yet. I do have one file finished, but this week was really hectic for me and I just couldn't get to finish the other ones that I wanted to get done. The Wednesday update is therefore postponed until later on tonight or tomorrow. Though I do have one file ready!


[PLASTIK TECH] Moons of Jupiter (Proto-Mix) / Freezepop

Sorry for the wait. Hope this makes up for it.

ENEMY BOSS APPROACH !!

[HARD TRANCE?] The Sampling Paradise / Mamonis

6 || 9 || 16 || 12

NOTES ::
o I'll update the banner with the legitimate name and artist name when they come out and if I remember.
o The current Challenge chart was originally the Heavy chart, but I thought that this song deserved a boss chart, so the then Challenge chart became the current Heavy one and the then Heavy one became Challenge. And that's why Challenge is easier than Expert.
o If this is illegal or otherwise immoral I'll take it down.
EDIT :: Apparently it was illegal or otherwise immoral--that is to say, the person from whom I got the MP3 requested that it not be uploaded to any public site, so... it'll be reupped soon, but for now you get the banner.
oohwhataprettypicture.

Whoops, almost forgot to update... that would suck.

...This really isn't that much of a boss song.

LINCLE LINK: Songs from IIDX Lincle!
(1) WE NEED TO GO DEEPER
(2) The second ETERNITYBOX Special
(3) WTF is with the artist name.

OH. WAIT.
No... those'll just be put off. I already have number 1 made up already, so rest assured DanceDanceRevolution ETERNITY Mix is going to link up with Lincle later on down the road, when Konami won't sue me for using their music.
The current ETERNITYBOX is...

DISCOBOX: Songs that were created from sheer danceability!
(1) The return of everybody's my nobody's favorite artist with the only song that's actually danceable by them!
(2) Latin tango and gay rights, arrrrrrrrriba!
(3) I originally thought that the title to this song was a euphemism for masturbation.

I'm sorry that I didn't get an update out on Wednesday and that today's update is a little bit late. I'm working on updating a few early simfiles of mine and realized that they really sucked. I'm going to be releasing them sometime this weekend.

I also have ETERNITYBOX to be released today. They're done, don't worry about it, and they'll be put up today, it's just that I can't do it at the moment. I'm working on something pretty big to be released next week, so look forward to that...!

In any event, DanceDanceRevolution ETERNITY Mix is coming to a close soon. The EXTRA STAGE and ENCORE EXTRA STAGE are going to be revealed at the very latest by October 31st, and after that the pack will be closed and finished. This bars a certain number of songs, though, so even after the pack gets fully completed and closed, stay tuned for five more songs to be released:

[HARD TRANCE] The Sampling Paradise
[TECH-BREAKBEATS] BLACK.by X-Cross Fade / DJ Mass MAD Izm*
[TECHNO] SHADE / DJ MURASAME vs dj Killer
[NU PROGRESSIVE] prompt / w×s ft.*spiLa*
[PLATINUM JAPANESQUE] ЁVOLUTIΦN / TЁЯRA

All in all, DanceDanceRevolution ETERNITY Mix is turning out to have over sixty songs, and nearing double what it was originally intended to! Thank you all for encouraging me and continuing to support the files, and sticking with me until the very end.

Will this be like Anthem Landing where you do all three mixes and then the Original Extended? Or will it be just one file?

The latter. Like I said, it's an ETERNITYBOX SPECIAL. Same with the EXTRA STA--I mean what? So when the Lincle ban passes over, I'll post them all at once.

Sorry that I'm late with all of this. Egregiously so. But there really wasn't much time left after cleaning up the sweat from playing DDRII, the blood from attempting to pass New Decade full version, and the massive amounts of I CAME from playing London EVOLVED. So, you'll get your ETERNITYBOX, plus a song for every single day that I was late.
So here's ETERNITYBOX:


[NU DISCO] Golden Palms / Dirty Androids

ANYWAY. BOXTIME!
RERAVE...BOX. I SERIOUSLY NEED TO FIND BETTER NAMES FOR THESE THINGS.: hurr durr I wonder.[/size]
(1) The artist of this song was "DistorteD" in IIDX Empress.
(2) Fun fact--this artist had something in DDR that was terribly overrated. SuperNOVA 2, IIRC. It's a license.
(3) This song has no mines or ITG-esque charts, no matter what the artist will lead you to believe; after all, this artist brought you ITG's answer to PARANOiA!

GOGOGO!! Even though all of these answers are obvious...

1: I got nothing.
2: Rainspark / Sanxion7
3: Paranormal / Inspector K
