Song Connections / Remixes

• A variation of GOLD RUSH appears in pop'n music 18 せんごく列伝, titled GOLD RUSH (pop'n GOLD MOUNTAIN rush). In this version, the different titles of beatmania IIDX have been replaced with the titles of the pop'n music games through pop'n music 18 せんごく列伝, sung primarily by staff member PON. The pop'n music version had a precedent as it was performed at the beatnation summit live by TOMOSUKE, but only listed through pop'n music 14 FEVER!.
  • The pop'n rhythmin arcade chart viewer uses GOLD RUSH (pop'n GOLD MOUNTAIN rush), despite that only the original GOLD RUSH is available in pop'n rhythmin.
• Two additional variations appear in DanceDanceRevolution X2, with the beatmania IIDX titles being replaced by arcade DanceDanceRevolution releases and console DanceDanceRevolution releases, sung primarily by SUPER STAR MITSURU.
  • These varations weren't retained in DanceDanceRevolution II.
• GOLD RUSH is based off of the opening and system music for beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD.
