The music and visuals of that vid are giving me BONEWORKS vibes. That game made it worth paying $300 for an Oculus Rift.

oh my gosh, I just decided to listen through every song on DDR A20 Plus... hot garbage. Every song was either some cutesy Japanese girl song, or loud industrial-sounding crap. The only songs I liked were Riot of Color by Tag (who is the best DDR producer post-Naoki) and Last Song by Kors K. aka, the only two Bemani artists with some semblance of talent. All this dubstep/ industrial garbage needs to GO... they just don't make em like they used to (RIP Naoki and DJ Taka...Tag and Kors K are doing what they can though, bless them)

I wouldn't go as far as to call it "hot garbage," but it is nowhere near as DDR-ish as it was from the Max to SN era. But you are really complaining about "cutesy Japanese girl songs?" I don't know what the DDR of your dimension was like, but DDR was always full of cutesy Japanese music. The only difference in A20 is that they paid other people to do it rather than relying on their own team.
I still agree with you on dubstep, that's a can of diarrhea.

For the Japanese songs, maybe you're right. I just don't remember them being so high-pitched and sounding like a 5 year old. But yeah, the boss songs all sound loud and grating. And not threatening in any way. Compare how menacing and epic the opening of Max 300 is to some of these new 15 footers... no hype. Anyway, I probably sound like an old geezer complaining about "today's music" to most of you.

We stan a self-aware queen.
But yeah, to each their own. I mean, if every DDR song sounded like a late 90's music style the series would probably die?
Meh.

It seems to me like you're wearing your nostalgia goggles a little too tight. The cutesy stuff now is essentially a stand in for Riyu Kosaka songs and some of the Dancemania licenses. The boss songs of old DDR could be grating too, with Fascination MAXX and CANDY (star) especially coming to mind for me. Boss songs existed before MAX300 too. Most of the Paranoia songs aren't exactly what I'd call threatening personally.
If you want a boss song from modern DDR that sounds threatening, I'd suggest ENDYMION, POSSESSION, or EGOISM 440.
Also 15 footer =/= boss song. Difficulty has increased overall as the game has aged.

I feel dubstep is a kind of boogeyman that people like to say makes up the DDR songlist now. Some of the stuff in DDR now is dubstep influenced, but it's not explicitly dupstep. There's a difference.

"Yuuki Mishima for Tekken" |
Kawaii vocals are the number one way to turn me off a song immediately.
The soundtracks are still generally good, though.

actually, I do know what dubstep and industrial mean. and I DON'T WANT IT ON DDR. At least not all of the songlist. they need to go back to 2004/2005 and see what music Bemani was making then. I'd say Empress is the latest they can look at for talent. anything else after that, throw it in the trash. all this said, X2 is an amazing game, and has a solid song list. X3 is pretty good too. but after 2013, nope.

"also known as MEGAtive" |
2004/2005 is a really long time ago and rhythm game scene moves forward everytime. With new aspiring composer names that dabbles with this kind of music enters other new rhythm games (name Morimori Atsushi, uma, LeaF, Juggernaut., etc.), it's just appropriate for DDR/IIDX to follow suit so they don't left behind by new rhythm games. And AFAIK these are still good stuff.
