Few New Songs To Say We LOVE You
We’ve distract you all with shiny new levels for you to play. We released the Smiley song Hyper Hyper -Definitive Version- by eastsideman09 (Dance2 Page1) and the extremely challenging FMO Venetian Snares song Choprite by Brilliant Dynamite Neon (Misc Page1) on Tuesday. In addition, I just released the song Ancient’s Death by Manmademusic and stepped by SulferDragon (Dance2 Page1 for now). If all that is not enough, the Kil tribute to iPatch, iPatch’s OP became public today (aka, SotW!), stepped by ElectricWerewolf (in Funk, for the next day or two).Finally, if you haven’t noticed, all of the subscribers week songs are now public as well. 50 of them have already been re-located to their proper locations throughout the genres, but 20 are still in Hip-Hop for the next day or two.

3rd Post of the Day! LoveHateHero on FFR!!! Valencia on FFR!!!
You now should have access to both version of Red Dress by LoveHateHero. Amity and Goodbye, My Love will be available later this week. I shouldn’t even have to tell you about these files at all… since you’ve all already played them on LHH’s embedded player on their myspace, right?? Regardless, the files are by MeaCulpa and Talisman, respectively. You can find them at the top of Rock page 1.
The Space Between is a pretty sweet Alternative song that talks about my home town, Philly. The band is Valencia, which, amazingly, is from Philly as well. And their myspace page (which may have an embedded player soon too) can be viewed here. Stepfile is by bluguerrilla, his 1st on FFR. Difficulty is rated a high Difficult because of a few small 16th bursts at 170. Mostly 8ths with some jumps. I guess it could be a low 8, but I’ll leave that for debate in the forums. You can find the song on page 2 of Rock, 2nd row. Check out Valencia, signed to I Surrender Records, they’re a real cool band and big supporter of FFR.
See you guys with another easy skill token tomorrow.

LoveHateHero – FFR’s 2nd Embedded Player
Shortly after seeing Making April’s embedded FFR player was added to their page, LoveHateHero was quick to want one on their myspace as well. LoveHateHero is a melodic mix of hardcore, screamo and even some metal, signed to Ferret Music since late 2005. The band has had their trials of ups and downs, including major US tours and new band members. Earlier this year, the band released their most recent CD “White Lies”, which can be found just about everywhere.
LoveHateHero is now the second band to have an embbeded flash player on their myspace. Included on the player are Red Dress, Amity, and Goodbye My Love. Files were by Talisman and BEN.(SPEIRS) 7.5. Not on the player is a harder version of Red Dress, by MeaCulpa. These four songs will be released onto FFR in a few days.

250th Overall Level… a simple Skill Token.
Our 10th Skill Token is also our 250th level in the game, including Secret, Purchased, Token, Skill, and Subscriber released songs!
(thanks go to iPatch for writing this up about 3 months ago)
Ugress is an electronica project from Bergen, Norway. The man behind this project is Gisle Martens Meyer.
Ugress’s music can be related to other artists as Crystal Method, Chemical Brothers and Propellerheads. Some similarity to Röyksopp have been suggested, but Ugress is described as having a more “dirty†style. Ugress is also known for using lots of sample snippets from various artists and TV shows. Often Ugress is mistaken for being the name and only project of Gisle Martens Meyer but Ugress is actually one of several projects by Uncanny Records. Each project spawns its own music style but nevertheless you can recognize the “vibe†which goes through most of the available music.
The specific song is the same as is in Spin It Up, Manhattan Sapphire. It’s not that difficult of a file, but it is a bit long at 3:39. Only 106 bpm, so I’m rating it a 3/6. The file is by new stepfile author and long time TWGer, Talisman. I’m sure you can find out how to unlock it via the skill token page on the left hand column… but if you want the challenge, i’ll only tell you to play Life Goes On.

FFR Simfile Database Update
Badda Bing, Badda Boom. All hail Rickz0rz who has both updated the original .sm file conversion script AND, better still, made the greatly needed .dwi update to the Simfile Database.
The gist of this is, the FFR Simfile Database now can convert most typical variations of .sm file AND .dwi files. Additionally, all those simfiles that contain .ogg files are now supported as well. So yep, that should be working as well.
Oh, and yes, going even a step further Read more… »
Song of the week, and future step artists!
We’re reviving dead genres in back to back weeks. This week it is Rock, with Victims & Martyrs by Allrise. Allrise is an indie band from Southern California whose music is self-described as Melodic Hard Rock. The stepchart is by T0rajir0u and isn’t that difficult; either Tricky or Difficult. If you like the song, check out the rest of Allrise’s work on their website, www.allrisemusic.com or via download on iTunes.
Second on the agenda, Jello will be joining LD in helping to manage song of the week. We will be looking for a few new step artists, and are interested in hearing from you! If you’re interested in being a step artist, read further into this story for details!
Cheers,
The FFR Staff & their Victims

FFR Sims Server Being Restructured .. Bear With Us
Guys, we are updating the sims server and restructuring the file structure a bit.
What does this mean? That means that these heavy files are being moved around to the new raid array to allow us to get faster upload, download and management routines in place for now. Bit rough .. as we have over 3000 sims so far.
Structurally speaking .. things are a bit cluttered, and until we get the clustered file servers on board .. this rebuild is going to have to suffice until we get the “heavy metal” up and working. Read more… »
