ok, what?
I hope you're only talking about Extreme, because 3rd mix+ and 4th mix+ are second only to PIU in terms of music variety. Both of those mixes had less than 15 songs of the variety you're talking about each, tops. The rest covered a shitload of genres, from metal, to punk, to pop, to rock, to jazz, to soul, and so on.
ITG/2 music =
---Kyle Ward techno which sounds like it was made on Fruity Loops (seriously, let's make a trillion mixes of Disconnected... BETWEEN TWO GAMES, and let's have them sound all the exact same!)
---Some weird ethnic shit that basically sounds racist as hell
---Some EXTREMELY gay songs that i would never play in a million years because they sound like they were made for Kidz Bop
---More generic techno
---Some techno that tries to sound hard and evil but just comes off as crap
---
Dust Devil, the only good artist in the entire game (with like, maybe one or two other artists being decent)
Drummania/Guitar Freaks pretty much owns the market in terms of music variety though if we're talking all music games. Still, PIU > DDR 4th+/3rd+ > All other mixes of DDR except Extreme > ITG/2 & Extreme for music variety/quality.
EDIT: for your enjoyment,
here is a list of the worst songs in ITG/2. Remember, this is how they
SOUND;
i'm completely ignoring what stepcharts they have.
Anything not on this list or the next one is still bad, but just not mind-blowingly horribly.
-
No 1 Nation (holy shit, talk about generic pop rock with the most retarded, generic melody and lyrics possible, same goes for Normal)
-
Music Pleeze (wow, i don't even know what to say about this one, sounds like Chris Rock made a rap song)
-
Bambee's songs (good lord, I want to kill myself when I hear them)
-
Every single rap song in the game w/lyrics or anything by anyone named DJ *blank* (all of this DJ stuff is just terrible, sounds like it was made by some bored kid with fruity loops and sung in a basement while they did cocaine to come up with the completely generic and broken lyrics)
-
All of the "group" songs (Hillbilly Hardcore, Hispanic Panic, etc. nice names guys, how about we name one "Black Attack" and make it a rap song? That'd go over well, and how about you use something besides fruity loops as well? That'd probably help too.)
-
Crispy (kill me)
-
E-Rotic (usually good, but the songs they put in here are failure)
-
Hip Hop Jam (this is possibly the gayest song I have ever heard in my life, the chorus makes me want to throw the machine through a window, this sounds like it was made for Kidz Bop)
-
Everything by Inspector K/Kyle Ward/ZiGZaG/KaW/etc. and Smiley (do I even need to explain this?)
-
Everything by Kid Whatever (nice buzzing sound, with like, the most generic drum track ever on Wake Up)
And here's songs I find good, i.e. would actually listen to OUTSIDE of the game;
-Agent Blatant
-Determinator
-D-Code
-Psalm Pilot
-Hybrid
-Bouff
-Hand of Time
-Bloodrush
