Skrillex Plays DDR
I put together this mashup when I realized there were no goofy dubstep remixes of this classic Dance Dance Revolution track. It turned out more awesome than I expected! The source song is “Butterfly” by Smile.DK, and the backing track is Skrillex The Sadness Will Never End [Bring Me The Horizon]. I even made that cute pic of Skrilly and Deadmau5 playing DDR with art I found on google image search. Cute-tastic and dub-alicious.
D+PAD Hero
A big, not surprising secret, I’m a huge Guitar Hero nerd. Somewhere burried deep in my subconscious I truly believe that a good enough play-through of a song on expert mode accurately simulates what it’s like to play the real song in front of a huge screaming crowd at some ridiculous animated venue. I also was terribly addicted to DDR for my bootleg PS1 back in the day. I blame it for the reason I didn’t eat a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich until I was 20 years old.
But enough about my pathetic video-game based upbringing, because you absolutely need to go download D+PAD Hero this minute. It’s a rhythm game, like Guitar Hero and DDR, but it’s been created as a NES rom you can play on an emulator. It’s like what rhythm games would have been like if they came out in the 80s. A very cool creation by the D+Pad Hero Team, it features sweet chiptune covers I’ve been listening to on repeat since I started writing this post.
