Down is living proof that the osu! editor is just a stepping stone towards becoming a music producer.
...as if VINXIS, tieff, happy30, Kurokotei, and Nakagawa-Kanon weren't enough proof already.
Down is a beatmapper-turned-musician whose first steps into music production came from the A Labour of Love beatmapping contest, where he designed a questionable remix for the classic Kuba Oms - My Love. Since then, he's branched out into every genre known to man, taking influence from different composers and designing primarily Touhou arrangements in all sorts of styles.
Down's Featured Artist listing has 13 songs for you to experiment with, more than half of which are named after mappers.
You probably know Down from his beatmap Ekoro (yes, that's the name of the song). This tune blatantly showcases Down's love for rhythmic complexity in a way that only a mapper could imagine. See what we mean through this play set by Ekoro (we're talking about the player this time!), then try out any of these other maps:
Check out the map from the video above hosted by Down, who also produced the song!
Maybe try this beatmap created by Down for the Korean Open Rank Draft Tournament or this osu!taiko rendition hosted by woosungko!
Play this map created by Down for DUO CUP: KOREA 2022!
Give a second attempt to this map also created by Down for DUO CUP: KOREA 2022!
Yep, there's a third one!
Try out this map created by someone you could probably guess!
Aaaaaaaaand check out this map hosted by past (previously known as Yamang)!
Can we perhaps interest you in the cult classic Down - Down [Down], as mapped by Down?
Start mapping any song above (and more) from Down's Featured Artist listing! If your name is something like UberFazz, Halfslashed, Lince Cosmico, or DeviousPanda, the Ranked section is waiting for your debut.
It's the weekend, which means there's two more Featured Artists to look forward to next week! Glue your eyes to the @osugame Twitter for more details and we'll see you again very very very soon.
