Creating a New World Through KARMA
Hello FFR’ers! (try saying that 10 times fast heh heh)
Today we have a very special treat for all of you. A rare and wonderful treat.
Stephen Kay, president of Karma-Lab and the developer of the music technology known as KARMA, has given his permission for us to use one of his songs as this week’s featured stepfile. This isn’t any ordinary permission. Stephen has been featured in many magazines and websites such as Electronic Musician, Keyboard Magazine, Sound on Sound, and IT-Review.net for his incredible line of electronic keyboards and software incorporating KARMA, as well as his career as a musician and composer. His works have appeared as themes for world-wide NBC sports programs such as Wimbledon and the French Open, and he’s played in just about every kind of music group you can name: rock bands, jazz fusion bands, show bands, etc. His music is truly wacky and colorful, a bright twist to most music you may have listened to. Here is a link to the media player on his site, loaded with some of product demo works.
For more information about Stephen Kay, check out his biography.
Now to the featured file:
Today’s featured file is called ==Planet KARMA==. Some of you might know it from ODIpack2. It’s one of Stephen Kay’s multi-part epics, featuring 5 movements, each with a completely different style and mood. Most of the file is similar to the one in ODIpack2, but there are some striking differences, especially in the 2nd movement. The difficulty varies throughout the song, anywhere from a 4 to a 12. The entire song is just under 6 and a half minutes long, so it’s sure to test your endurance throughout! Stepped by yours truly. You can find it in Secret; it’ll only take 100,000 credits to access. Enjoy this epic release!

Posted at 4:11pm on September 17th, 2008
ive been watching those videos for half an hour now on his site
some awesome fun stuff to watch
Posted at 4:41pm on September 17th, 2008
Yay.
Posted at 4:41pm on September 17th, 2008
Funny how you work it up to be amazing and then shoot down 98% of the population with the whole 100k credits at the end.
Posted at 4:43pm on September 17th, 2008
I don’t like SG files, but planet karma has some cool spots so whatever, now to whore credits, I should have never given them away
Posted at 4:44pm on September 17th, 2008
SMILIES WORK ON THIS WHAT!?!?
Posted at 4:57pm on September 17th, 2008
Didn’t we already have this?
Also, 100k isn’t that much really.
And if you really want, borrow it from a friend.
Posted at 5:07pm on September 17th, 2008
I think you are nominating yourself Funmonkey. xD And does this mean new subby songs?
Posted at 5:13pm on September 17th, 2008

Posted at 6:22pm on September 17th, 2008
Wow, Colorful notes!
Posted at 7:07pm on September 17th, 2008
there may be more secret songs still. but they’ll only be epic songs, i swear.
Posted at 7:31pm on September 17th, 2008
Only 100,000 credits??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Damnit…I just donated 10,000 to a contest so I’m down to a bit over 44,000. This will take forever. Anyone in a good mood to donate to me around 30,000 to make my ascent a bit less…euhm…..long?
Posted at 7:35pm on September 17th, 2008
Okay good, I don’t need to worry about playing the 100K song.
Posted at 7:46pm on September 17th, 2008
FIRST.
j.k
Posted at 7:47pm on September 17th, 2008
btw, gambling has to be the worst thing you’ve ever done.. (well, for most of us)
I will never be able to play that song. rofl.
Posted at 8:24pm on September 17th, 2008
Man… I love this song… As well as most of the other Karma Labs songs. Seriously guys, go check these songs out.
Posted at 8:55pm on September 17th, 2008
lol..
40 credits per play…
2500 plays (at least)
I played it before it was put into ‘secret’ but I have enough credits to play it now anyway, so
*goes to play Planet KARMA again*
Posted at 8:59pm on September 17th, 2008
lol 100k is a whole lot of credits actually funmonkey. Of course if you win them in a contest or anything like that it doesn’t seem like it but if you obtain them from playing the game, it takes around 5-6 billion points to get that many.
Posted at 10:14pm on September 17th, 2008
Posted at 10:43pm on September 17th, 2008
BWAAAAAAH?!
That’s alot of credits, man…
Posted at 11:04pm on September 17th, 2008
why dont you guys put in original songs instead of just copying the stuff that has already been stepped
Posted at 7:20am on September 18th, 2008
Stargroup is the original stepper of the song. He just converted his file for FFR (as in, take out holds etc.) and changed patterns.
Posted at 4:10pm on September 18th, 2008
ONLY 100,000 credits O_O
Posted at 1:20am on September 19th, 2008
How can we enjoy the goddamn song when it takes 100,000 credits to play?
Seriously, I could cry.
Posted at 2:28pm on September 19th, 2008
Anyone care to lend 95k to me? xD
Posted at 2:29pm on September 19th, 2008
Jeez I hope the next song is only 110k so I only have to get 2k creds.
Posted at 5:08pm on September 19th, 2008
It better be good. Seeing as gambling completely crippled my chances at playing this song. Anyone wanna donate some credits to me to make my life a little easier? Any amount will do.
Posted at 6:57pm on September 19th, 2008
Really amazing song, really good steps, Thx a lot.
Posted at 11:12pm on September 19th, 2008
only 97 000 more credits to go ^.^
Posted at 5:00am on September 20th, 2008
62 000 more credits to go ^^
Posted at 4:48pm on September 20th, 2008
98,000 more credits and I’ll have it.
Posted at 3:26pm on September 21st, 2008
LOVE his music, although my true love is still Benn Jordan…..XD Why do I see Korg everywhere Karma is??? Oo
Posted at 10:27pm on September 23rd, 2008
Karma, i can get used to that name. XD
Posted at 12:54pm on September 26th, 2008
LOL ^ I love you Virus
Anyways one of the best uploads to FFR,
a smile came upon my face when I saw the word “Karma” and “Planet” Used in the same sentence. I’ve always loved the song and I enjoyed playing it right here on FFR, so I really thank you tass for that, yet I am also pleased that the next secret song wasn’t something easy [Shining Sky].
Anyways, I LOVE YOU TASS:
The best guy in the world is Tass,
He’ll kick you clean, right in the bass,
He can take you and make you into a band,
All’s you gotta do is reach out and type with your hand,
He’ll help you put up one of your songs,
Such as that one that starts with what was it, ding dong?,
Anyways to get down to the point I’m going to enjoy these steps,
I give Tasselfoot much gratitude and mad Reps.
Thanks. =]
Posted at 10:35pm on September 26th, 2008
The Tass Song = epic win.
Quick! Someone make it into a real song and then step it to FFR!
Posted at 12:06am on September 28th, 2008

tass didn’t do anything at all. I stepped the file, confirmed permission, wrote the news post, everything. and here you are worshiping that son of a bitch and not giving me any credit
