Wow that's a pretty awesome idea.
Mixing songs together in real time...I had no idea that solo 2000 had that kind of feature. And now they are doing it in a US mix!
Freakin' awesome

Technically, Solo 2000 didn't. (Neither did Solo Bass Mix.) The Nonstop tracks in Solo were pre-made audio files that just took about a minute from each of three songs and mixed them together.

It also doesn't say it'll be in real-time, unless I missed something. In fact, I'm seeing just the same thing Solo had, "courses" of music, which will probably just be a pre-mixed audio file.

The solo tracks were also interesting in that the steps weren't exactly the sames as the ones from the original songs, but they were close. I'd say the steps in the nonstop tracks were "inspired" by the steps in the original songs.

When I played the nonstop track with Afronova, Wild Rush, and Drop Out, I was definitely surprised. I found the steps to actually be a little bit harder than those of the original songs, but that might just be because I had never practiced the steps before.

How was that one harder? They took out like half of the crossovers in AFRONOVA.

It just came as a surprise to me. I was expecting the crossovers (which I've gotten pretty good at), and it threw something different at me. It probably isn't actually more difficult, but I've only ever played it once.
