the CLASSICS

Okay, I'm trying to put together a list of essential DDR original tracks (tracks that were originally done for DDR, so CSFILSM doesn't count, nor does Butterfly or V). The tracks that DEFINED DDR. I'm going to make a megamix out of these songs, and I have a list right here with me, but I want YOUR opinions... What songs NEED to go in there? Also, what songs need to stay OUT? (I'm putting Let Them Move in, sorry, you can't sway me on this one

)

The first time I saw DDR was a long time ago, but it was for a very very short amount of time, but I remember both Let Them Move, and also that whistling music (from How to Play or something). Even though the music for the game is much different, when I re-learned about the game about 4 years later, these songs were still in my mind for some reason.

Well I know a lot of people don't like the song so much because they have heard it 3546768463464 times, but I think Dynamite Rave is pretty key. Also Max 300 as the first pie ever. And Paranoia (the original), just because it is REALLY old school DDR, and was the first of 7 or 8 (?) paranoia brothers.

Erm...just go through the songlists and take out the liscenced songs?

Dunno...just a thought.

I imagine that anything from Naoki's "Brilliant 2 B4U the Floor" remixes were made specifically for DDR, since they all scream DDR! DDR! DDR! in them.

I didn't say Butterfly didn't define the series. Heck, it's been in like 6 out of 8 of the original series. It's just that it's licensed. I'm only using DDR original songs for this. If you want to debate that with me that's okay, but I still won't use licensed songs for this mix. And..... who said anything about piracy? I certainly didn't.....

Boom Boom Dollar is the greatest DDR song ever made.

Don't forget 1998 and D2R, those songs are about DDR and are great high energy songs.

Hmm.. What hasn't been said yet.. Can't Stop Fallin' in Love could probably be in there. Afronova would work. Drop Out, for sure. Look to the Sky and Groove, for sure. Drop the Bomb, maybe. It's hard when you take out songs that didn't first appear in DDR. So many good songs from IIDX.

oh yeah, and pirating music is bad.

Gotta say Captain Jack(Grandale mix). I don't know many DDR players who don't recognize the songs background.

Rythm and Police too.

hey c'mon guys, he never said anything about downloading or pirating. for all we know he could have all the soundtracks, purchased legally.

anyway, for songs that defined ddr. just get all the songs from 3rd mix and earlier, then take out anything not specifically made for ddr.

Why not the licensed songs? The popularity of Butterfly cannot be denied.

Anyway, Keep on Movin' was the first DDR song I ever heard, so that is key for me.

Dead End was a nine-footer for the people back in the day, so that has a place.

Max 300 for sure. The first ten footer and the first extra stage too.

Two that belong due to being over played are Dynamite Rave and EotC.

Old Paranioa and Trip Machine are key, as well.

AM-3P-it's a classic.

Love this Feelin' was the first tempo changer song; an important addition.

Those are the ones that stick out to me.
