New Featured Artist: Toromaru
New Featured Artist: Toromaru
We've rounded up 12 songs from modern jazz savant Toromaru for our Featured Artist library!
If you ever thought rhythm game music wasn't complicated enough, Toromaru is here prove otherwise. Drawing inspiration from classic rock and jazz piano, Toromaru's intricate sound has traversed the music world into games like SOUND VOLTEX, pop'n music, CHUNITHM, and (of course) osu!.
A dozen of these masterpieces can be found on Toromaru's Featured Artist listing!
If you need some mapping inspiration, this beatmap of Formless Canvas demonstrates exactly how Toromaru's elaborate sound translates to circles and sliders. See exactly how a top player follows this dense mapping through this video featuring BTMC, then check out everything else:

Featured Artists playlists
In other news, the first batch of osu!(lazer) Featured Artist playlists have concluded! The top 3 players for each game mode have earned themselves a Featured Artist profile badge:
| Mode | Rank #1 | Rank #2 | Rank #3 | Profile badge |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| osu! | Trail Mix | Felrion | Lexion | |
| osu!taiko | Cookie_Tree | Raphalge | cheese salad | |
| osu!catch | KitsunIvy | Nelly | cosilgam | |
| osu!mania | UmmmMrMoo | [GS]Teo | AncuL |
We've also noted how many of you absolutely hated the Hidden mod in these playlists, so we'll take a different approach to next month's playlists (which involves freemod!). Those will drop at the turn of the month, so stay tuned!
Until then, sit tight and map some Toromaru songs.
