  Work It (RetroHouse Mix) by Gecko Yamori

| the song |
+----------+
This song is a remix of the Wacky Workbench theme from Sonic CD. It's got a great house vibe going for it too, making it one of my favorite video game remixes. There's even a guest appearance by Adam West, TV's Batman.

You can find the full version on VGMix at the URL:

The songs was considered for inclusion on OC Remix but was rejected by a 7-6 vote among the judge panel (a shame if you ask me).

Sadly, BeMaNiWarrior did not get his steps in on time, so I had to fill them all in myself. After the contest,
a version will be released including his steps.
Light
Chart by jammitch!
Your generic light chart. Not too much to say...
Rating: 3 feet
Groove: 0.29 stream / 0.33 voltage / 0.24 air / 0.08 freeze / 0.00 chaos
Steps: 229 tap / 9 hold

Standard
Chart by jammitch!
Very technical for a Standard, but it matches the song.
Rating: 6 feet
Groove: 0.41 stream / 0.38 voltage / 0.17 air / 0.01 freeze / 0.16 chaos
Steps: 337 tap / 1 hold

Heavy
Chart by jammitch!
Also very technical, which makes perfect sense if you listen to the song. Lots of gallops and other sixteenth patterns.
Rating: 8 feet
Groove: 0.55 stream / 0.54 voltage / 0.09 air / 0.03 freeze / 0.57 chaos
Steps: 447 tap / 3 hold

Challenge
Chart by BeMaNiWarrior
Some very tough patterning makes up for the relative lack of density in this one.
Rating: 11 feet
Groove: 0.90 stream / 0.87 voltage / 0.14 air / 0.00 freeze / 1.00 chaos
Steps: 740 tap / 0 hold

Edit
Chart by jammitch!
ItG style. Contains mines, hands, etc.
Rating: 11 feet
Groove: 0.82 stream / 0.90 voltage / 0.28 air / 0.00 freeze / 0.92 chaos
Steps: 558 tap / 118 hold

Keyboard Extra
Chart by jammitch!
It's reminiscent of a IIDX notechart, in that you have arrows following different sounds. If I had more keys, I would have incorporated the break into it as well.
Rating: 11 feet
Groove: 1.00 stream / 1.00 voltage / 1.00 air / 0.00 freeze / 1.00 chaos
Steps: 911 tap / 0 hold

Speed: Straight 124 BPM all the way.

Made by jammitch! I think this one turned out really cool.

The SM BGanimations are quirky and quite funny, if I do say so myself. I'm not about to figure out how to do anything like it in DWI, so tough luck.

jammitch! is an award-winning simfile author and Stepmania theme designer, among other things. jammitch! began playing DDR in May 2003 and began messing around with the various simulators in August (settling on Stepmania 3.0 Final before daring to try the CVS builds). He first seriously entered the DDR sim scene in February 2004. No one seemed to notice. In DDRei TournaMix 5, his "Green Hill (Euroclub '95 Mix)" simfile advanced to the semfinals on the strenth of judging, and was massacred by the public in later rounds. However, in DDROSC3, his "Los Angeles is Burning" simfile swept the competition, proving that rock music can and does make for good stepcharts in capable hands. Other fine jammitch! originals include Beyond Electric Dreams, Himawari, Red Zone, and t.grey; other not-so-fine jammitch! originals have been buried and will never see the light of day. When not wasting his time on DDR simulation, jammitch! wastes his time programming useless crap no one wants, and attends college to learn how to program useless crap no one wants. Another interesting fact: if you capitalize the j, jammitch! will hunt you down and sell your organs on the black market. However, the exclamation point is strictly optional.

You can (probably) find more of jammitch!'s simfiles at his Bemanistyle Sims Database page:

Tested in DWI: got a AAA on Heavy, that's good enough for me. These competitions always do a good job of reminding me exactly how much I hate that program.

Tested in SM: 71 perfects, 1 great on Heavy. Again, good enough.
