- In-depth look: Song -

V Rasen is the most whacked remix of Winter I have heard in my life. It sounds like Taka was listening to V one day while tripping out and decided "hey ill do this and then this and then this and whoa thisll be great." The next day he had no recollection of what the hell he did, but he listened to his new creation and thought "Whoa, this is pretty cool." I am inclined to agree. I bet you will too.

Yes, the song has an "L" stamped next to it. Big deal. Th MP3 length is only 2:47. You'll be able to last that long with no worries.

- In-depth look: steps -

I can't really give anyone an in-depth look at any of the pads charts. I made all three playing "Theory Theory Revolution" as not only did I not have a pad handy, but I have never played on one. I had NOTHING to go on when making these aside from moving my feet around under my desk trying to keep it so I never had to turn too much.

I also tried to limit the number of jumps - the number one critique I got from TM5 was that Sakuranbo Kiss was too Airy.

The challenge steps are one of my favorites of all my creations. Very streamy, and while there are many jumps among the 16th runs, everything is set up so a one-hander like myself can handle the song easly. 2 of my 3 times playing through this song I've topped 190 million. I also made sure there were no hold-triples for indexers to deal with, and no jackhammers because no one seems to like them (besides me). Hi banditcom. =D

The sync is dead-on for me. I could probably SDP the Standard steps if I felt like it.

- Special thanks -

- DJ Taka, for takin' those drugs and kickin' this out.

- Antonio Vivaldi. Without him there wouldn't be a V by dj Taka or a Winter by Banya. Respect your elders, people.

- BMR. His V was the first simfile I ever played (Johnson made me do it <_<), and I know I incorporated some of his rhythms - and probably some of his steps - into my own since that's what I "grew up on".

- cynic, for making the first and only V Rasen simfile I've played (that I didn't make). I know I used some of his rhythms in my keyboard steps as well (any steps/rhythms stolen from his pad steps are purely coincidental as I did not play those until I  finished mine). Also, he made Paranoia Hamsterdance.

- Koge Donbo, for Di Gi Charat. Hooray for Rabi~en~Rose.

- Capcom, for making the Megaman series. Hooray for Roll.

- Me, because I wouldn't be this awesome without myself.

- You, for reading all this worthless tripe when you could've been playing SM/DWI.
