R3… a new type of FFR??? or just a new stepfile.
Just a new stepfile. well, not JUST… a new stepfile is a big deal! YAY! R3 (Omega Mix) is a remix of a DDR Song called R3 by Tiger Yamato. This mix is by one of my buddies, DM Ashura. File is by Silver_Brian and is an 8 footer.
To unlock this new R3 version of stepfile and song…. you must Full Combo Lift Up, which can be found in the Skill Token section! Yay! I told you there was a reason that Lift Up unlocked so easily…. BUT WE AREN’T DONE YET…..
Also, 2 new subscriber only songs are available. Check out Funk. Or wait 3 weeks until they’re publicly available.

PS – I’m being forced into this… but today is LD’s 4 year anniversary. July 2003 was Month of the Admin, as JasonKey and myself also both registered in July 03.
K to the P to the 81-zero-7 – Skill Token #9/62
More fun with Onoken today. P8107 is another little tune that he whipped up, and it only makes perfect sense to use K8107 (our 40,000 credit secret song) to unlock it. They are, after all, only 1 letter apart. Stepfile is by Exag0n, who also stepped K8107. It’s pretty darn hard. 10 footer for 180bpm bursts with jumps in it, and overall tricky patterns and beats. Thankfully, it has 0 4-framers or worse.
The req for this is difficult, mostly because you need 40,000 credits even to try to get it. Once you have the song though, I don’t feel it is THAT difficult. All you had to do is pass the song…. with more misses than averages AND more boos than goods. Like I said, simple.
Have fun, and expect the other token this evening along with 2 SotWs for the subscribers, as I’ll be out of town from tomorrow morning until Wednesday.

JULY JULY JULY FOURTH!!! JULY JULY JULY FOURTH!!!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. I feel slightly hyper this morning. That could be for 2 reasons. 1. It’s july 4th… but that probably isn’t it. 2. Smiley songs just make me HYPER & Happy.
So, after over 6 months sitting in the queue, July has finally been released. I just HAD to wait to release it today. Especially since I didn’t wait until Summer to release Summer -Speedy Mix-. As mentioned, it’s by Smiley, one of Kyle Ward’s aliases. You can currently find it in the upper left hand corner of Dance 2, although it may later get moved to the end of Dance. All depends on where the final difficulty discussions place it. I rated it an 8. Half of the 8s are in Dance, the other half are in Dance2. Only time will tell.
Big thanks to hi19hi19 for being so patient with me, but I guess it helps that he has 20+ other files going into the game every other week.
Anyway… you guys now get all three of your files today EARLY! No more complaining about having to wait until 9pm to get your craving of token for the day. Until tomorrow, that is. And have fun unlocking Zephon.

Lift Up – Skill Token # 6/62
Lift Up is a cool techno beat by long time music producer Aerogroove. If you want to check out more of his stuff, go to his website. File is fairly straightforward. It’s a 7 in difficulty. Steps are by ~Zero~; this is his 1st song on FFR, but expect more from him!
To unlock Lift Up, you must get at least 340 perfects on the song 8-Bit Day Dreamer, also by Aerogroove. Yes, this req is very easy for a song that is of medium difficulty… there IS a reason for this, which will become clearer over the month. So no complaining!

THIS…. IS….. F. F. RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! – 300th FFR Song
With good reason too. Halt the presses, because this is a special public release! A break from the challenges of skill token month. To give you…. the GREATEST song of all time (well, 2nd. Next to TMWT.)
Created way back before I was even a member of this site…. sitting away in the back of NestleKwik’s hard drive, gathering dust…. was the song that made FFR famous. Immortalized for history, by the one… the only… Excluded. The song is so powerful, it’s only name is FFR.
For such a glorious song, we needed to have a glorious way to unveil it. We considered waiting all the way until November, for the site’s 5 year anniversary. BUT THAT WAS TOO LONG! We had to give the people what they wanted. So, after weeks of torturous thinking, it finally dawned on me. We would release this masterpiece as Flash Flash Revolution’s 300th song. At 3:00pm Central. On July THIRD. An alignment of the threes, possibly unlocking the triforce or the triumvirate. I only hope that we know what we’re doing.
My words can not give this song or file justice, so I will let all of you judge for yourselves. It can be found in the upper left hand corner of Misc. The file is by jimerax, and is the greatest chart ever released upon the public. I have heard rumors of better files by the great masters themselves…. but they were so powerful, they knew they could not be placed upon the simfile database, for fear of what might happen.
Without further ado…. go play!

So Long To The Circus! BYE!
Nice new rock song, So Long To The Circus is by the band The World/Inferno Friendship Society. I don’t know much about them, and had asked Mead1 to write me up a paragraph about them, but he didn’t. So, I’ll stick to my normal commentary of saying that the song is lots of fun, full of bread and circuses. Besides, we all love new Rock songs.
Very very easy req to unlock this too, just hit at least 200 notes before failing. Total of perfects + goods + averages has to be at least 200. Erm….. on the song Victims & Martyrs.
So Long To The Circus is a difficulty 7, mostly because of its length. It’s over 3 minutes long (as most Rock songs released today are), and is almost all 8th notes. File is by the same lazy Mead1 who didn’t send me a paragraph about the band… which means you guys all have to read the same boring commentary from me over and over again. And over again.
Again, if you like the band’s sound… check them out here.
-Tass & Boring Commentary
EDIT: I’m dumb.
Release the Battle Ax – Skill Token #4/62
Battle Ax is a crazy fun song by Onoken. 9 on the difficulty scale, with all kinds of jump triplets and 16th bursts with jumps in them. Rated a 9/12 on the difficulty scale. Stepfile is a collab between macgravel and Exag0n, two well respected stepfilers.
To unlock it, Full Combo ESC -Super Version- with 2 goods or less. No averages, no boos. either AAA, Black Flag, or 2 goods. as per levelstats, 61 people currently meet that req, but I suspect we’ll have more than that within 24 hours alone.
Basically…. you’re going to want to have this skill token. Battle Ax is worth it to whore ESC.
-Tass & his Battle Ax of DOOM…. on this, his 4 year anniversary with Whorli.
A Little Tribal To Start Your Day
Skill Token #3 of the month is being brought to you by the letter T. Tribal Style is a song by Kyle Ward, under his KaW alias. To unlock it, you must Full Combo Tribal Revival. Stepfile is by Brilliant Dynamite Neon & shortysnmn2010. File is pretty straightforward; once again, a 7 in difficulty – “Difficult”.
Enjoy, and don’t forget to have your Bran.
