To add more sad news, in spring 2017, KONAMI removed ''all'' of the artist pages from the BEMANI Fan Page website, and also dropped the long-standing [[beatnation Records]] name that had been in use since 2006. In fall 2017, KONAMI also started listing its in-house BEMANI staff as '''BEMANI Sound Team''', and for a few weeks in pop'n music even went so far as to uncredit in-house songs completely. Nearly all BEMANI songs done in-house since fall 2017 feature the BEMANI Sound Team name in front of the artist name.

However, it also left far more lasting effects in the series than just an added moniker in front of in-house artist names, including:
However, it also left far more lasting effects in the series than just an added moniker in front of in-house artist names, which can be viewed on the [[BEMANI Sound Team]] page.
 
* BEMANI Namahousou (kari) (BEMANI生放送(仮)), the live show that showcased various BEMANI activities, had its host fired and replaced with [[Yuki Nakashima]] and a rotating set of commissioned artists. No in-house BEMANI staff have since appeared on the show following the June 28th, 2017 episode.
* Otoca♥d'or (オトカ♥ドール), an arcade card game that was regularly updated since its debut in March 2015 and featured BEMANI artist [[Seiya Murai]] doing its soundtrack, ceased music updates completely after July 2017.
* BEMANI artist [[Akhuta]]'s interview page was taken off of the [https://www.konami.com/jobs/ja/interview/ KONAMI employee interview page]. His was the only one on the page that was from an in-house BEMANI musician; all other pages are still currently up.
** This later inspired Akhuta to name a song based on this, [[A Tale Hidden In The Abyss]], a year later in [[AC Rootage|beatmania IIDX 26 Rootage]] under his "person09" alias (said alias is based on the URL for the original page that his interview was on).
* In-house artists are no longer credited in live shows, only referred to as '''BEMANI Sound Team''' in scheduled listings.
* BEMANI artist albums published by KONAMI have ceased completely; the only albums published by KONAMI since the change that are vaguely BEMANI related either involve [[HinaBitter|HinaBitter♪]] or Tokimeki Idol (ときめきアイドル), as both are Konami Digital Entertainment franchises (BEMANI games are by Konami Amusement instead).
** BEMANI game OST production has also slowed down significantly.
*** BEMANI game OSTs no longer list staff credits.
* The '''DJ YOSHITAKA Song Remix Contest''', announced near the end of [[AC SDVX III|SOUND VOLTEX III GRAVITY WARS]] on October 19th, 2016, was canned. The only remix contest in [[AC SDVX IV|SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN]] was for commission artist [[Ryutaro Nakahara|Ryu☆]]'s launch of his [[Ryu BEST -STARLiGHT-|Ryu☆BEST -STARLiGHT-]] album.
* Most in-house BEMANI songs since October 2017 don't have their artist name on the song jacket (though this has occasionally been zigzagged).
* Song comments on new songs in [[AC DDR A|DanceDanceRevolution A]] and [[AC pnm Usaneko|pop'n music うさぎと猫と少年の夢]] stopped after early fall 2017.
** In the case of pop'n music うさぎと猫と少年の夢, virtually no new characters were illustrated for the game after summer 2017.
* In-house artists on the [[AC CANNON BALLERS|beatmania IIDX 25 CANNON BALLERS]] website are exclusively credited to '''BEMANI Designers'''. Unlike the BEMANI Sound Team incident, where the artists were eventually credited, this has not yet been reverted.
** In-house jacket artists for [[AC SDVX IV|SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN]] are mostly unaffected by this change.
** [[Be a Hero!]] doesn't list its artist.
