Line 37:
* [[The Jimmy Hart Version]]: Plenty based on ''DDR'' songs.
** The first game has "Disconnected" for "PARANOiA", "I Think I Like That Sound" for "Drop Out", "Hand of Time" for "Healing Vision", and "Pandemonium" for "Gamelan de Couple".
** The second has "Energizer" for "MAX 300", which even incorporates a JHV of the slow part of "neoMAX", a ''fan remix'' of "MAX 300".
