Song Connections / Remixes

• Some players say Ascalon sounds similar to cloche from jubeat copious APPEND and REFLEC BEAT limelight.
  • Qrispy Joybox notes in the music production info for Ascalon on the beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro website that it's just a coincidence (though he says so in a joking tone). However he refers Almace as the similar song, not cloche.

Trivia

• 3D models of Pastel-kun (the REFLEC BEAT series' mascot) and of the REFLEC BEAT 100% CPU Difficulty version of it appear in the overlays.
• Like other Qrispy Joybox songs in beatmania IIDX, Ascalon is named after a mythological weapon. In Christian myths, Ascalon was the name of the sword that Saint George used to kill the Dragon.
• The DJ table appearing in one of the overlays of Ascalon has "Club Mont Blanc" written over it. Mont blanc is Pastel-kun's favourite food.

Alright, I finally made Ascalon...huh? If you sort the songs by the alphabet A, Almace's position will be nearby?
No! No! That is completely coincidential!

In the event that you did sort the songs by the alphabet A, please play Almace too!
