Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ So this Video Serves Two Purposes: (1) This is RAY-KIN's Best Run on FLOWER CSP as of 1/16/21. (2) This is SoundFX09's Best Run FLOWER ESP currently. DJ YOSHITAKA really made a name for himself with FLOWER, and it is a beautiful masterpiece of a song. Since it's Release on DDR X3 VS 2ND MIX (Which is my personal favorite Mix of the bunch), This song has never grown on me. I can go back to it at anytime and enjoy it. As for the Expert Chart, this is my best run at this time. I've played it many times and STILL can't find a way to Full Combo it. As you see, I tend to mess up at the Middle area of the Song, though it is STILL possible for me to FC it. I'll keep at it for now. But the real meat of this video is RAY-KIN. What a Run! I know there are some who have MFC'd this chart, but it's always nice to see someone get a Solid PFC on this. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ One of my Favorite Songs from SuperNOVA, and one I consider to be Very Underrated. A beautiful yet somber tune that pulls you in and doesn't let you go. Worth a listen without question. As for the Expert Chart, It's deceptively difficult IMO. Mainly because the BPM Changes, despite being easy to tell, really force you to be more accurate with your steps early on. In addition, the 16th Gallops in the Final half of the Song really force you to either footswitch or do the crossover. And because I tend to do the former rather than the latter, it ends up resulting in my run being EXEMELY Sloppy. If you know how to do the Crossovers in the 16th Section, this isn't too bad and you'll likely agree with the 12 rating. But if you're like me and aren't good at that, this can be Very Tricky. I'd argue this is a 13, but the reason I believe it's given a 12 is due to the charts low step count, combined with most of the song being relatively easy until the 2nd half. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ A Straightread AA FC on AA. The Tongue-Twisting... Anyways, AA is a pretty intriguing classic from DDR SuperNOVA. I actually do enjoy this one, though I still prefer the Original A (Renaissance) from DDR EXEME over this one personally. Still a Good Tune to listen to, though. As for the Expert Chart, They did a Wonderful job with this chart. It is somewhat repetitive at times, but there's enough here to keep you on your toes, while making sure you're paying attention. Most Importantly, It's not Step-Heavy, instead requiring you to have a decent amount of Foot technique in order to get through. So for me, this is a Very Good 13 Overall. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ YES.... Just.... YES. DDR Megamix... For some reason, Konami decided to wait until Dance Dance Revolution A to put this on DDR. And since it came out, I've been wanting to get this one in the bag. And for the Difficult Chart, I FALLY Got It! DDR Megamix is essentially a Compilation of Songs from the Classic DDR Days (Mostly Naoki Songs). And it's a very good compilation, but to have The Legend of X at the end makes it the icing on this fantastic cake. Definitely Worth a Listen! As for the Difficult Chart, this chart is actually quite fun. However, it forces you to learn how to pace yourself. Since you'll have to deal with The Legend of Max Section at the end, you'll want to conserve your energy for the final segment, otherwise you'll be out of breath when you need the energy to finish. Once you learn how to manage your energy through most of the early parts of the song, The Final Area will be more than manageable. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ Trust me when I say This: I am NOT a fan of this song. I know Zedd has made a lot of great music, but any song that involves a Former Disney Channel Star is going to be a problem with me. If you like it, then you like it. It's just something I personally don't like. As for the Chart, Like most US Songs that make it to DDR, it's not really that difficult, and is quite simple to AAA or even PFC. I may try for it at some point in the future, but for now, a AAA SDG will work for me. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ Konami seems to have a knack for making some REALLY Awesome Tunes for some of their Other Video Games. This one goes to a Game that I believe is STILL Japan-Only called ''Busou Shinki ARMORED PRINCESS BATTLE CONDUCTOR (Busou Shinki BC (武装神姫BC)". It's an absolute ROCKING Song, and is worth a listen without any doubt! As for the Expert Chart, I'd argue it's a pretty hard 11, given it's about 450 Steps, despite the patterns being quite simple to do. Your Stamina Will be Tested on this if you're a player just getting into the Expert Difficulty, so be prepared. Otherwise, It's not that bad. Thanks for Watching!

It is an ABSOLUTE BANGER from start to finish, even the odd middle part is pretty intriguing! Worth a Listen without a doubt! As for the Difficult Chart, I'd say it's right on for it's rating. You'll need to watch out for some 16th Spots in the Middle and in the Final Stretch. Otherwise, it's not too difficult to do if you know what to expect. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ While I'm not a total fan of this song, it is still a good listen. Bonus points though for it being a staple song for the Castlevania Series. In addition, the Background showcases cutscenes from Castlevania: Curse of Darkness, which is a cool touch. As for the Expert Chart, it's not difficult at all. Just don't be like me and COMPLETELY BUTCHER the Stop in the middle of the song. I'll come back and AAA or PFC this later. For now, It's another AA added to the list. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ HANDS DOWN the Best Non-Boss Song from Dance Dance Revolution X. It's a shame it came in during the Dark Days of DDR in the US, but it still freaking ROCKS. Give it a listen sometime, it's THAT catchy and fantastic! As for the Expert Chart, it goes very well with the song. It's just a shame that Konami decided to make a SHOCK ARROW Challenge chart for this song instead of, you know, ACTUALLY Making a Harder Challenge chart for it. Oh Well, it's still a Good Expert Chart Nonetheless. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ HANDS DOWN the Most Underrated Song from DDR X2 in my genuine opinion. It may be a song about Prime Numbers, but my goodness, is it SUCH a Treat! If you haven't heard the Full Version of this Song, I HIGHLY Recommend you give it a listen at some point. It's such an awe-inspiring song! As for the Difficult Chart, It's actually not too bad. You'll have to watch out for the Slowdown in the Middle of the Song, but otherwise, this chart is very doable. Nothing really sticks out in this chart as frustrating or cheap. VIDEO CHALLENGE: If this Video gets 10 Likes, I WILL attempt the Expert Chart in the near future. It's a Level 15 with over 600 Steps, but It's a Chart I'm willing to give another try at! Thanks for Watching!

Just Listen to it and see for yourself! As for the Difficult Chart, It's not too bad really. You'll have to watch out for a few 16th and 12th Steps, but even with all the Jumps, it's not really that hard. I'll give the Expert Chart (which is a Level 15) a look at some point. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ Ah, a Classic Song from SuperNOVA. It's a shame that TERRA no longer makes songs for Konami, but to be honest, the songs they have left behind still remain as great music pieces to listen to. As for the Expert Chart, there's nothing really that difficult about it, however, I still made some bad mistakes on this run, so I'm sure many others could best this score. I'll come back to it once I'm able to AAA other Level 12's Consistently. As for the Challenge Chart? That will come at a later time. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ Another Underrated song from DDR 2013. I know everyone talks about Private Eye, but I think Tell me what to do is right up there with it. Give it a listen sometime. It's actually pretty good. As for the Expert Chart, it's pretty straightforward. There are some 16ths that can throw you off if you don't expect them, but otherwise, this 12 is very doable. PFC is VERY possible. Thanks for Watching!

Not the Virus, but this Challenge Chart! The Song itself is very well done. Outbreak Kid knocked it out of the park with this one. Not my preference, but it summarizes the Virus very well. As for the Challenge Chart, THIS is how you do a Level 19 or 20. Make the Steps Difficult, but NOT Impossible to do. No Question this chart will push ANYONE to their Limits, but it is BY NO MEANS CHEAP OR IMPOSSIBLE to clear. THIS AA WILL NOT COUNT Towards my counter, as this was done on the Keyboard.

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ Of all the songs in DDR X2's AMAZING Soundtrack, this is probably the one I am most attached with a personal level. As much as I LOVE POSSESSION for it's In-Your-Face Beat and absolutely Mesmerizing Tune, Your Angel feels like a Graceful flight up to the heavens that grabs your heart and never lets go. It's that Amazing to listen to. Just listen to it once, and you'll never want to let go. As for the Expert Chart, this is probably the only disappointing part. It's not a Bad Chart, as it flows very well with the song and isn't too difficult to FC, but it feels like this Song Needs... More. A Harder Chart, one that will test your limits and whether you are committed to holding on to the end or not. Regardless of this, this is still a great chart, and one song worthy of playing as many times as you want. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ This song is SERIOUSLY OVERHATED. I actually don't think it's bad, but rather, it definitely fits the title of the song! Vertigo means a dizzying sensation while being in tilting or spinning surroundings, and the song certainly fits that description, giving it's unusual flow, inconsistent timing, and oddly changing BPM. As for the Difficult Chart, It's a Solid 12 without question. You just need to watch out for some of the 16th Steps and the Odd Final Part of the Song. otherwise, it's very doable.

It's not bad, it's just not my preference. I'm not into the Hardcore Eurobeat Tracks in DDR, and this version of BRILLIANT 2U just simply isn't brilliant to me. As for the Difficult Chart, these charts certainly feel different from the Other BRILLIANT 2U Charts I've seen to this point, With Small 16th Sections and odd 8th steps, but nothing we haven't seen before. Just watch out for the Expert Chart; It'll literally throw you for a loop. Thanks for Watching!

This is my 2nd-Favorite (and I MEAN a VERY VERY CLOSE 2ND FAVORITE SONG) in A20 PLUS. And it's NOT just because of the music, which is an ABSOLUTE MUST-LISTEN.... But there is SO MUCH Symbolism and Refencing in this song that I CAN'T EVEN COMPREHEND IT. I just... I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH! And The Charts are just PERFECT. ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. The Difficult Chart, while Completely Straightforward, is just FANTASTIC. I'm sure a LOT of people have PFC'd this, But I still have work to do on it. For now, I will GLADLY take a AAA SDG on this. Just play this Song, YOU WON'T REGRET IT. Thanks for Watching!

Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055511108/ DeviantArt: http://soundfx09.deviantart.com/ Okay, I have a LOT to say about this song. Therefore, Consider this my Personal Take. First, Confession Time: Back in my Young Days with my Birth and Foster Parents (Years that I am NOT proud of), I would listen to Hip-Hop Music a TON. It was catchy and modern, and just the way the music sounded was very alluring to me. However, it was not until I was adopted that I found out just how TERRIBLE Hip-Hop had actually become as a Music Genre. It went from being a Catchy Music Genre with Rhymes aplenty and talking about Diamond Rings and Golden things to being a Music Genre full of nothing but ABSOLUTE misogynistic, manipulative, and down slanderous lyrics, designed to desecrate or devalue individuals or groups of people whosoever the Artist desired, all in the name of making 'Creative' Music. When I came to this realization, I FLED Hip-Hop Music, swearing to never listen to it again..... Until I played and listened to Crazy Control. You know what this song gave me? Hope. Hope that Hip-Hop, as a Music Genre, isn't completely fucked over by Artists that care only making Millions of Dollars Slandering or Manipulating Other People in the name of so-called 'creativity and profit'. I don't know when Hip-Hop will return to its' old glory days, but one can hope. Because of this, I consider Crazy Control to be one of the more Under-Rated Songs from DDR X2. It is truly a unique song in the Middle of a Mix with Tons of FANTASTIC Music. Give this a Listen, you won't regret it. As for the Challenge Chart, this is MILES better than the Expert Chart, as most of the steps are very straightforward and the chart is specifically designed to try and help you get used to dealing with various 16th Steps and Streams. Heck, I'd argue this would be a Great Warm-Up Song if you're going to play some Level 14's and 15's, since 16th Steps become a lot more prevalent on those Difficulties. Absolutely Worth a Play WITHOUT QUESTION OR EXCEPTION. Thanks for Watching!

To Think, 6 Years Ago, in 2015, I started Playing DDR in the Arcades on HEAVY/EXPERT by AAing THIS SONG..... Man, It's been quite a journey, huh.... Personally, this song isn't my kind of song, but it's still catchy and worth a listen. Plus, it references another Konami Game, so I guess that can be a plus? As for the Expert chart, most of it is pretty straightforward. the Only Difficult Part would be the Ending, and it can throw you off if you don't expect it. I could probably AAA this with some work, but for now, I'll take the AA. Thanks for Watching!

This is probably one of the more Awkward Songs and Charts I've played. The Song sounds like something out of like a Halloween Festival or Movie, and I'm not too keen on knowing the Lyrics or Meaning of the Song, based on its Music. As for the Expert Chart, It's not too difficult, but I found myself having trouble concentrating on this one. Just the whole tune throws off my timing, and I can't really tell if it's on sync or not, so..... Yeah. Thanks for Watching!

I've lost count of how many times I've listened to it over the last decade. IT IS JUST THAT GOOD! Onto the Difficult Chart: I can definitely Full Combo this IF I improve my Stamina. I ran out of Gas right at the Final Area, and just couldn't keep up. If anything, my best shot at FCing this would be on the 1st Stage, NOT the Final one. Still, to get to a 383 Combo is still impressive. I just have to get that last section down.... Thanks for Watching!
