Default Song Recommendations?

I just found out that there's an ITG2 15 miles from my house, so I'm going to play it for the first time tomorrow.

I took a long break from DDR, but I started playing recently seeing as I've gotten really out shape. LoM is a bit inconsistent and I'm nowhere close to beating PSMO, but I can pass the other 10s with As and Bs.

What are some Level 10+s that would suit me? I know that the "curves" in DDR were quite apparent with some 9s being harder than some 10s and whatnot, so I'd like to know what some easier songs were.

Any help is appreciated and welcomed.

anything 11+ is going to destroy you if you can't pass PSMO, and have troubles with lom

some of the 10s might be pretty doable

I'd suggest sticking with 9s for now though

to get in the habit of doing hands, spaceman expert and romeo and juli8 expert are good

bloodrush hard is a fun chart

monolith hard too

Monolith Hard is pretty fun and good to get used to the feel of ITG2, Tribal Style Expert is also a really good transitional song if you were good at songs such as So Deep. I've always liked renaissance Expert, it has rolls and is a pretty fun chart to play. If you were good at Max 300, play Energizer (Hard), its very similar to Max 300. Cryosleep is pretty fun, too.

Just remember that the songs are a bit longer on ITG than DDR, so if endurance is a problem, it may be a little difficult to jump head-on into the upper tier 10's such as Disconnected (Hyper). And if you need to practice with Mines, play Disconnected Mobius Expert.

Thanks, guys! I just came back and pretty much played all the songs you listed for me:

Spaceman & Romeo and Juli8 - I'm still not used to doing hands, so I kept panicing on both songs and ended up hitting the hand arrows with the toes or heels of my feet. How essential is physically getting down and slapping the arros in harder songs? On these first two songs, I was able to get the arrows around 50-75% of the time.

Bloodrush - Easy

Monolith - This was the first song I picked and I almost failed it (I had perspective in Hallway and not Overhead so judgement was really messed up >_<). Besides that, the chart looked really easy.

Tribal Style EX - I was already pissed off before playing this song. I highlighted it on Expert and saw "DUK! 100%" on the bottom knowing Ryan came and destroyed this chart. Whatever. I got some high 8x% on it my first try.

Renaissance - Very fun.

Energizer Hard - Was, ironically, easy.

Cryosleep - Was fun, too.

Disconnected (Hyper) - Some parts were difficult, but I still got in the low 8x%, so I was happy.

Disconnected Mobius - Was harder with all those mines -__-



And I played a few other songs just to see if I could beat them or not:

Charlene Ex - I played this song near the end of my stay at the arcade so I was already a bit tired, but I ended up beating it (the mines + triples run in the middle was REALLY hard for me to pass). I ended up getting 70.14% and was really happy at the end.

Energizer Ex - Hahahaha. I played this one for fun and did way better than I thought I would. I was alive for around 3/4 of the song but then my legs completely gave out and could not get off the pad so I lost.

Bouff Ex - Why wouldn't I when this is my first time playing ITG?



So, I've had my first experience with ITG2 and was able to beat Charlene; where does that song fall compared to the other 11s in the game?


Once again, any help is appreciated.

I finally passed PSMO for the first time with a B!

I still have trouble with that and LoM, though :{
