Re: Dude they need a metal section...

Metal songs would be needed first before you could create a metal section. You're going to have to play StepMania until that happens.

yeah I know thats why I think we might could focus on metal a little bit instead of self produced techno artists or happy hardcore rave music for a change.

Re: Dude they need a metal section...

Metal should really just go under rock. You can find like 50 sub-genres for Dance such as Trance, Euro, Club, but they don't have their own sections. However I do agree we need more metal but getting permission is hard. There's a fine line between screaming into a microphone and playing chords really fast. To get some good mentalists you need to pay big bucks and FFR doesn't pay at all.

Dragonforce is crap get some bands that can actually play live and not just the studio.

If DF permission does happen, only 1 or 2 songs will ever get into FFR. The rest will be rejected for being too long.

Re: Dude they need a metal section...

If there were actually enough metal songs to warrant a metal genre, this would be a great idea. I don't care that metal is a rock sub-genre, there's no way you can tell me that Driveway sounds anything like The Epidemic of Unexpected Relapses.

Re: Dude they need a metal section...

The solution: Hunt down some metal artists, get permissions, step songs, submit songs, play songs.

There is no need for a new genre. Metal falls into the Rock category. If it was its own genre, then drum and bass, club, and trance, would need to have their own as well, along with R&B, screamo, emo, Xmas music, etc. etc. etc. you get the point.

Re: Dude they need a metal section...

Seriously, for the more aggressive players and whatnot, seperate from the rock. I don't know, I am a huge metalhead and I listen to music and im like "Damn this would be a fun song for Flash Flash". I don't know, this has probably been talked about before but I think it is a good idea.

Yeah?

Metal isn't a good type of music that's easily to step.That's why we don't have that much. Better to keep it mixed in the Rock genre to save space.

Re: Dude they need a metal section...

yeah, last time i tried a thread like this, it got locked, and i got told that there will never be a metal genre because they'll just file it under Rock.

Re: Dude they need a metal section...

Boomstick (a gabber song) sounds nothing like Sandstorm.. but both fall under the genre of "Electronica" into their own subgenres.

Therefore: Metal is a subgenre of Rock.


Also, subgenres and such have been discussed, before. Most we're getting is a Dance 3. That's about it.

Re: Dude they need a metal section...

I completely agree that there should be a metal section,

Lots of FMO's and FGO's in it too

Re: Dude they need a metal section...

No.

Then we need an "Emo" genre and a "Screamo" genre. Not to mention let's just rip Dance apart and make:

- Techno
- Trance
- Trancecore
- Breakbeats
- Breakcore
- Drum 'n' bass

Then let's pick the Misc genre apart too. We'd have 8billion options on the spin wheel.

And, like said before, metal is technically classified as rock. Really, it doesn't even fit the definition of music, but it's still classified as rock so that's where it belongs.

metal is not rock, though. it is a gift from God, Himself.

You have a great system, but,

Emo is not a genre, Screamo can be a run-off of Metal
