== Profile == | |||
Jason Michael "Stillwind" Borenstein was a KONAMI employee, best known for working on the DanceDanceRevolution series. He first worked as an audio designer on [[CS DDR ULTRAMIX|DanceDanceRevolution ULTRAMIX]] and [[CS DDR ULTRAMIX2|its sequel]] under the aliases of Stillwind and SuperStillwind respectively. He was then promoted to lead music director in [[CS DDR ULTRAMIX3|ULTRAMIX3]], and fulfilled that position as well in [[CS DDR ULTRAMIX4|ULTRAMIX4]]. | |||
After the ULTRAMIX series ended, Jason became the sound director of the first DanceDanceRevolution title on the Nintendo Wii, [[CS DDR HOTTEST PARTY|DanceDanceRevoltution HOTTEST PARTY]], which was a huge hit for the system. Jason then became the sound director of [[AC DDR X|DanceDanceRevolution X]], making him the first - and so far ''only'' - non-Japanese person to sound direct an arcade BEMANI title. Jason would also work on [[CS DDR HOTTEST PARTY2|DanceDanceRevoltution HOTTEST PARTY2]] and [[CS DDR Disney Grooves|DanceDanceRevolution Disney Grooves]] around this time as well. | |||
Sadly, Jason Borenstein died on February 7th, 2009 from an aortic aneurysm at just 36 years old. The final video game project he worked on, [[CS DDR HOTTEST PARTY3|DanceDanceRevolution HOTTEST PARTY3]], was released eight months after his death. | |||
== Trivia == | |||
* Jason, under his Michael a la Mode persona, was seen in the tutorial mode in [[AC DJ TROOPERS|beatmania IIDX 15 DJ TROOPERS]], helping to explain how to play the game as Michael a la Mode. His voice was dubbed over by [[Yoshitaka Nishimura|DJ Yoshitaka]]. | |||
* [[AC jb ripples|jubeat ripples]] song [[STARLIT DUST/Still ni sasagu|STARLIT DUST/スティルに捧ぐ]] is named after Jason. The English title in [[CS jukebeat|jukebeat]], STARLIT DUST/For The Late Stillwind, confirms this. | |||
** Another song dedicated to him, titled [[On the Night of a Still Wind]], appears in [[CS DDR 2010|DanceDanceRevolution (2010)]]. | |||
* According to [[Richard Lane|DJ Silver]], Jason was very likely behind the SLOTH MUSIC PROJECT alias, as DJ Silver produced all of Jason's covers for [[AC DDR SuperNOVA2|DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA2]] at the same time. | |||
