DJMAX Technika: Pop Mixing Selection 1

When I play Technika, I mostly play in Pop Mixing mode which lets me freely choose songs I want to play in each stage. And well, there are so many songs you can choose in Pop Mixing, either the ones that are already available or the ones that should be bought from Maxpoint Shop. Furthermore, I can choose the difficulty of the songs by myself. When playing in Club Mixing mode or Crew Race mode, the difficulty (level) of the songs played depends on the disc set itself or someone who registered the course.

And talking about the songs themselves, there are some themes that I can fetch from each songs. Let me give an example: when playing "Heartbeat Part 2", I feel like I'm listening to one of my favorite childhood songs. The song is kind of cute, funny, and kiddie. I don't know if you guys think what I think, but I personally can say that "Heartbeat Part 2" has a cute, kiddie-theme.

I thought about the songs which have similar theme, so I decided to make my own selections for Pop Mixing mode. This is like making a Crew Race course, since we're not able to create our own custom Club Mixing set. But I hope someday there would be an allowance to create custom Club Mixing set. I think it would be fun to let people play the sets we created.

So here are some pop mixing selections I created, based on its theme:

The Epic Story


Is it a tragedy? Or just a dramatic sad-ending romantic story? This epic-theme set boasts dramatic viola melody in "Oblivion", hasty movement of violin in "Propose, Wolf, Flower Part 2" which represents the tension of the tragedy, and powerful arrangement of "Colours of Sorrow".

Preferred level:
  • Oblivion [MX - 8]
  • Propose, Wolf, Flower Part 2 [HD - 7]
  • Colours of Sorrow [MX - 8]
Classical Insanity 


We can find some classical music on DJMAX. This set offers you favorite classical pieces such as Tchaikovsky's romantic waltz "Swan Lake", Saint-Saƫns' mysterious "Danse Macabre", and Franz Liszt "La Campanella". And of course, the songs will give you a surprising insanity!

Preferred level:
  • Black Swan [HD - 8]
  • La Campanella [HD - 7]
  • D2 [NM - 8]
Mafia House 


Are you in a pursuit of precious gems? Are you in runaway of police? These songs will make you feel like you're a mafia boss!

Preferred level:
  • Enemy Storm [HD - 6]
  • The Guilty [MX - 7]
  • Showdown [HD - 7]
Last Friday Night 


Do you remember how wonderful it was at the club on last Friday night? You don't need to wait until the next Friday to feel the HEAT of the club, since you can feel the BEAT of the club here in DJMAX. Let's start from "The Rain Maker" that will give you a deep ambiance of Epic Trance. Then you can continue dancing to the melody of "Airwave". And at last, feel the heat and the speed of "Right Back" while giving your best moves on the dance floor.

Preferred level:
  • The Rain Maker [HD - 6]
  • Airwave [HD - 9]
  • Right Back [HD - 7]
