SotW #1 of this week is Cash Cow.
Song is by We Are Scientists, an American rock band featuring Keith Murray (guitar and
lead vocals), Chris Cain (bass guitar and backing vocals) and Michael Tapper (drums and
backing vocals), formed in 2000. This is their first song for FFR.
Steps are by Mead1. Not overall very hard but BPM is a bit faster, and some 16ths and
doubles are a bit tricky. Our rating is 3/6 (Tricky).
You can find this song in Rock section.
SotW #2 is Divnity.
Song is by DJ Sane 2007. Already Troglodytic Epica is in FFR, so this is the second song.
Tight trance with unique rhythms of percussion. Steps are by hi19hi19.
Song isn’t too fast but a lot of 32nd bursts at the middle part make it a lot harder
to hit accurately, or keep combo. So we rate it 4.5/6 (Challenging).
This song is currently in Funk section, will be moved to Dance2 section.

SotW #1 of this week is Fig Leaf Rag.
This song is composed by Scott Joplin, performed by Benjamin Robert Tubb.
1st song by S. Joplin / B. R. Tubb on FFR was Maple Leaf Rag, and this is the 2nd song.
Steps are by pokelda. It has slow 16th short streams with jumps as well as Maple Leaf Rag,
but has some more tricky patterns so it’s harder to keep combo.

It’s the first Oster Project’s song publically released on FFR. Oster has so many cool variety
of songs on muzie page and we have blanket, Check it out. Steps are by hi19hi19.
BPM(165) is semi-fast, has many doubles and some 24ths.. so it’s a quite challenging song.
Difficulty rating is high 4.5/6 (Challenging), let’s try to FC(full combo) this and prove your skill!
This song is currently in Funk section.
And.. another skill token song is Dazzling Destiny, arranged version of Dazzling Soul.
Sub-title of this song is “Advanced Soul”, so it’s a kind of.. advanced version.
Song is of course by Oster Project, Steps are by Kit-.
BPM(170) is a bit faster, and has more bursts so in my opinion it’s harder than Dazzling Soul,
especially harder to hit bursts accurately. Difficulty Rating is 5/6 (Very Challenging).
You need to FC Dazzling Soul to play this song.
