Song Production Information[]
Dance Dance Revolution 2ndMIX[]
This is also a KONAMI original song which debuted in 2nd MIX. It can be played in 2nd MIX's battle play mode called "STEP BATTLE". It's in the style of producer team, Stock Aitken Waterman, who produced music for Rick Astley and Kylie Minogue in the 1980s. The combination of the female vocalist's singing and male rap with the song's melody gives it a whole new feeling. This is a pop and danceable number you can just enjoy listening to. A special version is included in DISC-2.
Dance Dance Revolution 2ndReMIX APPEND CLUB VERSiON vol.2[]
This cheerful house music is used in the arcade version of DanceDanceRevolusion2ndMIX's STEP BATTLE mode. However, this song was extremely popular, that many users often selected STEP BATTLE specifically for this song.
Before being able to dance to this song in the home version of 2ndReMIX and the latest 3rdMIX, it was surprisingly fresh in your memory that it was included in beatmania4thMIX. Similar to PARANOiA, it was included in beatmaniaIIDX substream, which made club play possible.
Dance Dance Revolution 2nd ReMIX append clubversion vol.2 was appended to include songs from beatmaniaIIDX substream, so this time, you can listen to a version which strongly retains the atmosphere of playing it in beatmania.
