New Featured Artist: Risa Yuzuki

Serenade yourself in the vocal talents of Risa Yuzuki, our latest Featured Artist!

Multi-talented Risa Yuzuki (nicknamed Yuzurisa) is coveted throughout the world of music games for her outstanding vocal performances, lyric compositions, and even voice acting expertise. With features in Arcaea, Taiko no Tatsujin, beatmania IIDX, and SOUND VOLTEX, she's garnered a reputation in the rhythm game world for styles that cover rock songs, club tracks, folk tunes, and essentially every genre in between.

We've picked up 17 tracks from her discography stretching back to 2014, all prepped for mapping from Risa Yuzuki's Featured Artist listing! These songs all include instrumental production from familiar artists like xi, EmoCosine, Street, Cranky, and BlackY (plus a LOT more), so we're willing to bet there's at least a few tracks you'll love.

If you need some convincing, a few members of the Mappers' Guild have been working behind-the-scenes to create some showcase beatmaps specifically for this announcement!
