Update of 20th feb 2016:

DO NOT THROW STARS FOR THIS, THEY WON'T HELP IN ANY WAY AND ARE WASTED. PLEASE DON'T DO THAT!

You'll do it anyways. ;_;


Hello, osu! community! I am pretty sure some of you guys heard about the Beatmap Packs, and your guess is correct: we're talking about ideas and suggestions what new packs can we add for the Theme and Artist section. If you have any ideas just drop them here and I will see what can I do with them. We already got since november 2015 more than twenty new packs for the Theme/Artist section - cheers to you guys - and I'd love to get more in.

Informations
  1. The upload times are on Friday and Sunday at 5:30pm GMT +0. Time can vary due reasons.
  2. Downloads are available from Mediafire and http://osu.yas-online.net (till Pack #423, doesn't include any Chart/Theme/Artist packs)

Okoratu
Dareni soonish then i guess
Endaris
I love you Stefan.
Will try to get some stuff together over the next days.
I never wanted a TATOE pack, i just wanted a thread like this xd
Myxo
I will point out artists that have a lot of beatmaps mapped and which I think are pretty popular in this game.

Artists where beatmap packs would make sense:

- Renard (all of his identities)
- t+pazolite
- Infected Mushroom
- Hanatan, yuikonnu, nano (all seperate of course, but they all do vocaloid covers... vocaloids itself should get packs but i suppose that's more theme-related packs)
- One Ok Rock
- Yousei Teikoku
- Dragonforce
- Feint
- Pendulum
- FELT
- Halozy
- xi
- Nekomata Master
- Memme (nice memme)
- sakuzyo
- M2U
- Sharlo
- Nightwish, My Chemical Romance (not entirely sure of their popularity in the game)

Artists where beatmap packs would make sense in the future:

- Marina and the Diamonds (already many beatmaps, but my mapping project is going well so it makes more sense to wait until full albums are mapped)
- Camellia (people are into mapping drumstep lately so I would wait for more maps)
Okoratu
Do a zts pack so you can add your own set to a pack.
Bara-
μ's?
Or some Love Live songs-packs (BiBi, Lily White, Printemps) in general
Mao
I don't think a Nekomata Master pack would make sense as many of the downloads are not available anymore...
However, I agree with the others Desp has listed. Also I'm interested to see how the Paramore project progressesses so that a pack would be possible in the distant future as well.
Also to the vocaloids, I'd rather do packs for the actual composers like Giga-P.

Long way to go sadly ;-; But for some reason the English Pop / Rock projects are more successful than the Japanese projects, even though you would expect the opposite.

Mao wrote:

Nah I disagree. I think people would rather download a "Hastune Miku" or "Megpoid Gumi" pack than packs for actual composers that are way less known.
Mao
Idk, just having a vocaloid would cover too much and I don't really think we could perfectly sort them according to themes :/
Myxo
There could just be multiple packs for each vocaloid, sorted after date of rank. Vocaloid mapping started very early - few players will be interested in playing 2009 vocaloid maps, realistically.
Bara-
Don't you think that'd be a bit ridiculous?
A pack for each vocaloid, multiple if needed O.o
Producer is better, Reol, GigaP, FujiniseikouyuuP (Or Nanahoshikangengakudan, depends on what you prefer), PinocchioP, Kemu, Zips and some others (can't currently recall which ones have multiple ranked maps) That'd at least narrow down so the player can more easily play maps of a certain producer they like
Myxo
But does the average osu! player really know which songs these composers made? I would doubt that... For example if you make a FujiniseikouyuuP pack I bet 90% of the osu! players would not even know who that is. But atleast 75% know who Hatsune Miku is.
Mao
I actually think the producers are quite famous tbh.

But vocaloids get recognized more than composers and producers.
abraker
Producers are typically famous when they create something that creates a subset of their own genre or a major idea. Various volcaloid music vids are more memorable for the volcaloid used instead of who created the work because there are not memorable/important enough to be looked up. Don't get me wrong, a total fan or someone who pays more respect to the producer will look the producer up, but generally it doesn't happen with many people. Take the Evilous Chronicles for example. I instantly know that was created by Akuno-P/Mothy because I consider it a series of very major works and am a big fan of those works. However, I don't really know who created Senbonzakura. Even if it's stupid for me not to know, I just don't care as much.

They could be used either for BMS or IIDX packs, depending from where their songs coming from. I planned to rework the two IIDX packs anyway.
- Sharlo
- Nightwish, My Chemical Romance (not entirely sure of their popularity in the game)

Artists where beatmap packs would make sense in the future:

- Marina and the Diamonds (already many beatmaps, but my mapping project is going well so it makes more sense to wait until full albums are mapped) Yeah, I've been poking you on skype for that already.
- Camellia (people are into mapping drumstep lately so I would wait for more maps)
I haven't wrote anything to the other suggestions yet since I've got to take more time checking them.
Remyria
I know some of them have been said already in a way

- Linkin Park

- trillions of touhou related with many artists possible

- Maybe a Marathon pack or two :o

- Random idea like that, a 7+ Pack that would be mapset with at least 1 diff that is 7 star and higher

- Within Temptation

- few other trillions of vocaloid / vocaloid covers (I'm asking to map a apck for every artist(well character if not mentionned), for example Rohi)

- pp maps pack...(just kidding)

- Yuikonnu

- Zun, but enters the touhou thing, obviously

- Apocalyptica

- Eluveitie

- Evanescence

- Serj Tankian / System of a Down

- Tenacious D

- Cascada

- My Little Pony and remixes of it

- Classical Music that aren't from taiko no tatsujin or remixes (might be a bit hard to find maps to make a pack, but if you need help, I probably have all of them)

- Igorrr

- Tatsh

- Umineko no Naku Koroni musics (there a different artists, but all have the same theme, so makes sense...in a way)

- anamanaguchi

- Chata

- Meme (darude, nyancat, keyboard cat, etc.)

- DM Ashura

- Goreshit

- Green Day

- Groove Coverage

- Hyadain

- Pokémon

- Knife Party

- MOAR VIDEOGAMES

- Lily Allen

- Lindsey Stirling

- Nickelback

- Nico Nico Douga
- Nico Nico video community stuff

- Rise Against

- Sum 41

I didn't mention artists that made mostly jubeat/reflecbeat/BMS/beatmania songs, openings and other things like that

And TONS of artists I love the work but only have 2-3 beatmaps :c


(and a star for lolz)

-> How about another Internet/Meme/Funny type (idk what to call this) of pack with maps such as:

https://osu.ppy.sh/b/792408
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/787430
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/738978
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/82962

(etc)

-> Maybe also some sort of "Gameplay-Affecting-Storyboard" Pack with maps such as:

(Standard)
https://osu.ppy.sh/s/26932
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/739265 (assuming it'd be ranked)
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/369493

(Taiko)
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/514848
https://osu.ppy.sh/s/301247

(etc)

-> Standard Pop Set with stuff like https://osu.ppy.sh/b/178489?

-> Dragonforce Set?

-> osu! x cYsmix Set?

-> Asterisk Set? Idk, there have been many xxx - xxx (Asterisk Remix) lately, https://osu.ppy.sh/p/beatmaplist?q=aste ... 0&la=0&ra=

Also completely supporting the Camellia Set
-> 2B Set? I guess that'd be more of a Gimmick Ranked Request thing :v

About "Meme": We will have the (potentially) updated internet packs which covers this very well. Might doing a own pack for Nico Nico Douga Content tho.

-> osu! x cYsmix Set? I indeed had the though to make an osu! Beatmap pack including the new cYsmix tracks, the two osu! Tutorial maps, circles! and Sunrise from osu!stream.
