For those who were around at this time last year, you'll remember the 12 days of FFRmas event that we ran, with 1 new song a day for 12 days leading up to Christmas. Well, we've come a long way since then. I had to beg and scrap to get those 12 files finished on time. Now, we've got well over 100 songs waiting in queue to get into the game. Including widgets, around 600 songs have been added to FFR in the past 12 months. Insane, given there were only about 200 added in the first 4 years.
So today is December 14th, exactly 12 days before Christmas (including the 25th). Since we have so many songs to choose from, and since we did 1 a day last year... We decided to up the stakes a bit. This year, expect a random number of new songs each day (between 2 and 4). So 24 to 48 new files over 12 days. I can tell you that there are 28 different stepfile authors represented in this event and 32 different musical artists. Unbelievable! [Allsongs were selected randomly from the queue, using random.org, with a tiny amount of tweaking on days 11/12 to weed out repetition]
It's a bit of a pain to place songs in the proper location, so all songs will be placed in Hip-Hop for the duration of the event. After it is over, I'll move them to their permanent homes. Anyway... Enough of the history and nostalgia. Let's get on with today's songs!
Only 2 today, but they're quality. Forsaken Neon is an extremely high-tempo techno song by Dimrain47 and stepped by Rebirth0. It is a whopping 230BPM, which poses all kinds of framer issues. There were 2 3-framers in the file, but I tweaked them to 4. A total of 29 4-framers in the finished file. It's a 10 in difficulty. The other song today is Teh Tricky Techno, a short Popeye-esque techno song by old-school artist DJ RageVI and stepped by Xandertrax. Pretty catchy tune and amusing stepfile that I think is a 9. It has jumptrills and 24th rolls worked into some fun 16th stream patterns.
Enjoy, and look forward to another 11 days of awesome stepfiles and songs! Check the official thread for discussion
