When you hear a song on the radio or something, do you think of steps that can be possible? Because I do all the time. If I'm listening on the radio, I always think of the possible steps that can be done and how fast it should be. Just wondering if anybody else did that.

Yeah, I do. And when I listened to Moby - Thousand, I thought, "WOW, I WONDER WHAT THE BPM ON THAT WOULD BE"

Well, I don't make up steps for songs. But a lot of times I'll hear songs and say "That song should be in DDR". I'll just leave the step making to...uh...the step makers.

Sometimes while I'm waiting for my memory card to load in the machine, I start stepping on the pad and making steps for that music while I'm waiting.

When I hear a song, I'll usually tap out a step pattern with my fingernails, but I never keep track of what directions they go. Just sort of a spur-of-the-moment thing.

I DO I DO I DO I....DO!

Seriously, though, I do stuff like that ALL the time. I even started to make steps for a few songs, but since IDK how to adapt those into DWI files, screw it.

I'll tap out a beat with my fingers, make step-noises with my mouth, or even step like it's an actual DDR song if I'm sitting.

Sometimes, but usually only if I had the thought that the song would be good for DDR.

No, I tend to think of IIDX note patterns.

Sometimes if I close my eyes when listening to the music I can visualize the step patterns!

That's exactly what I do, too. If I hear a familiar song or if it's just something that sounds nice on the radio, I'll usually make up random steps. I don't really pay attention to what steps they actually are, and it usually happens without me even knowing. laugh.gif

Sometimes my feet are involved, but I never get them off the ground and make steps on the floor while I'm sitting. I just use my toes and tap them inside my shoes. biggrin.gif

At times I do to be honest, thinking of steps to songs are quite fun

Dude, that'd be a scary sight to be. It'd probably go ZZZOOOMMM on the screen erm.gif

But yes, I too like to make up steps to some differnt music that I listen or hear. That's sorta the main reason why I want to learn to make step files for StepMania and such. And the same applies when I'm thinking about IIDX I"ll tap my fingers like it's on the IIDX machine.
