* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZAXajq0EOU BRIDAL FESTIVAL!!!]] from S.S.D., also known as Arata Iiyoshi. Very catchy and heavily reminiscent of his works on ''VideoGame/PokemonMysteryDungeon''.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9OIcjevrn0 The LIMIT BURST theme]], played on the song select when you unlock a LIMIT BURST song.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcUn2lp9-gA New Decade IIDX Edition]], the ''DanceDanceRevolution X2'' LIMIT BURST. It's a longer version of ''New Decade''[[note]]to be more accurate, it's a cut of the extended version of New Decade[[/note]]. And if you hate the DDR version's [[GimmickLevel tempo]] [[FakeDifficulty changes]], fear not: The IIDX version's charts are all constant-BPM! Also, ''[[SampledUp kakkoi~]]''

* Also from ''tricoro'', the ''beatmania IIDX'' [[BonusBoss LIMIT BURST]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROqIWaj-Ybs Sol Cosine Job 2]], by hardcore musician DJ Technorch. You know you're in for a brutal challenge when the song starts with [[AC:"Good evening, [[{{Engrish}} or]] [[PrepareToDie die]]!"]]
** For that matter, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9OIcjevrn0 the LIMIT BURST theme itself]]. Unfortunately, since unlocking a LIMIT BURST boss puts the song select cursor on the boss song immediately upon going to song select, [[WastedSong you probably won't hear it for long]] if you just go straight into the boss.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJjnHmZdkyk Sense 2007]] by good-cool, from ''IIDX GOLD''. The song is [[YMMV]], but the video's about [[FanService three girls in short-skirt bodyfit clothing dancing with fans]].

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvGRj77EAOo smooooch ・∀・]] was so famous in NicoNicoDouga, people made [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZsdTpWDqEk different]][[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoIXKja4Kqg variations]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0t4BcKtcBuc of]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWE1nFtVbVk it]]

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgoI7ML2JoQ HELL SCAPER]] by L.E.D. LIGHT-G, originally from GOTTAMIX. Oldskool gabba + acid trip animation = [[CrazyAwesome]] in music form.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iX23bjIjLys Burning Heat! (3 Option MIX)]], another song based on {{Gradius}}. Also the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJwzE-W9-cA Full Option Mix]].

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eal-n-reIqg COREDESAT]] by Des-ROW from ''beatmania THE FINAL''. This song is a blend of the intro music Des-ROW did for ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFWmWjmd16U beatmania CORE REMIX]]'', ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kjzma8ZPFqY beatmania 7th Mix]]'', and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZZErbraJPg beatmania THE FINAL]]''. Also appears on pop'n music via ee'MALL.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXrY-D-HVso ASK]] by RAM from ''beatmania III''
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2FZb2AjWrg Yuuyake ~Fading Day~]] by [=JAKAZiD=] from IIDX 18 Resort Anthem. Guaranteed to make you feel good.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoV1iTqdg3w Kailua]] by kors k. Also from Resort Anthem.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5cnqOoQTUc Dances with Snow Fairies]] by Dr Honda from Resort Anthem. One of RA's boss songs, and it definitely sounds the part.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OczFQ73BBQ Quick Silver]] by Mystic Moon from IIDX 19 Lincle.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7Jp6rrHrVA DON'T WAKE ME FROM THE DREAM (2010 Summer Mix)]] by Yoji from Lincle.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P587JPp46IA She is my wife]] by Super Star Mitsuru, aka TAG. [[MemeticMutation Notable]] for the hilarious background video (shown in the link) where TAG, dressed in a campy superhero outfit with large sunglasses and feathers, dances with dj TAKA, L.E.D, Ryu*, DJ Yoshitaka, and kors k in an extremely fabulous fashion.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wr8Vf_uclGM Live version]] performed at AOU 2011, now with even more hilarious cardboard cutout of Ryu* holding a boom box.
* The opening themes deserve mentions:

* Ageha, by Ryu*. SO MEMETICALLY ARRANGED! Even spawned memes using the beat of the song itself, called [[Memes.TeamFortress2 GentleMentleMen]].

* Tricoro has [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2o9TlCFApOQ Illegal Function Call]]. It's U1's first IIDX-specific song, and features a [[RemakeCameo video full of callbacks to the 5-key era]].
* ''tricoro'' brings in Nekomata Master as one of the new sound directors, and the system music he makes is awesome. For two examples, try the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BwVQ_jZVEE title theme]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pWBkLT87sM the music select theme.]]
* Also from ''tricoro'', the ''beatmania IIDX'' [[BonusBoss LIMIT BURST]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROqIWaj-Ybs Sol Cosine Job 2]], by hardcore musician DJ Technorch.

[[AC:Unsorted]]
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zliubqahaZM RED ZONE]] by Tatsuya Shimizu and Naoki Maeda. First appeared in Beatmania IIDX RED. Seems to have [[RedZoneRemixVid REALLY taken off]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6x0UlEtU4To on Nico Nico Douga.]]

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwqcKGW3Bg8 Injection Of Love]] by AkiraYamaoka and Sana, from ''iFUTURELIST''. It appeared first in IIDX RED.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJjnHmZdkyk Sense 2007]] by good-cool, from ''IIDX GOLD''. The song may suck for you, but the video's awesome.
* Some video with "We can fly away" either in the lyrics or in the video, which also had the "camera" flying around the inside of some sphere
** That was [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmJtBnK3OfA HORIZON]] on IIDX RED by LIA (actually, it's kors k with Lia singing). If you read the description at [[http://vjarmy.com/wiki/index.php/HORIZON RemyWiki]] it explains the song and video. Some people may find the song depressing, some may find it uplifting.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-0ZAmKx_Ec Raison d'Aatre ~Kousa suru shukumei~]] by Zektbach, from beatmania IIDX 17 SIRIUS. It's pretty much Tomosuke doing a ShoutOut to himself.
** Pretty much anything Tomosuke does under his Zektbach alias applies to this.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5oxyxUMNa4 Apocalypse ~dirge of swans~]] is both beautiful and sad. The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDelkvExKTg full version]] more than deserves a listen as well.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgoI7ML2JoQ HELL SCAPER]] by L.E.D. LIGHT-G. Oldskool gabba + acid trip animation = Rave party
** There's also [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMz03HMqQmQ the full version]].
** And [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9x7EfR2Kbs the remix]]. And [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsyntnalA9Q the full version of the remix]].

** Hana Ranman -Flowers- (see the DDR section below).
** Mugen no Hikari (see the Pop'n Music section below).

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCHU8TUEFmU Manatsu no Hana ~ Manatsu no Yume]] by Sana, from 9th Style. It's a shame that this is so underrated, really.

* Every single Lincle Kingdom boss song. Slaughtering music game demons has never been this exciting:

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8C73Yi_Rvpk Gradius -Full Speed-]] from ''beatmania IIDX 10th Style'' and ''pop'n music 11'' is a {{Homage}} to ''{{Gradius}}''.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onZX0-Xvajg GRADIUS 2012]] from ''tricoro'', which has a similar premise but is more uptempo and features a neat scratching section in the middle.
* '''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bybkLlNbaaw TWO DEE ECKS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD]]'''
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCEL__H9678 Scripted Connection=>]] from ''IIDX Happy Sky'' is an epic 5 1/2-minute techno track, with a very unique gimmick: the Normal version fades into the Hyper version, the Hyper version fades into the Another version, and the Another version fades in from the Hyper version--put all three versions together for the aforementioned full version.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXhT2Umsz3U V]] by (dj) TAKA, a remix of the Winter movement of Vivaldi's "Four Seasons," from ''IIDX 5th Style''.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_o1w9qQIEA V -conclusion-]] from dj TAKA's album "Milestone"
** ...and the sequel [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qTGcTccIok V2]] from ''IIDX 16 EMPRESS''.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-91sveb86Gc Love Me Do]] by AkiraYamaoka, from ''IIDX 7th Style''. Yes, the same Akira Yamaoka who works on the ''SilentHill'' soundtracks.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6bymX7U-EE bit mania]], also by AkiraYamaoka, from ''IIDX 8th Style''.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRjjbbT857E Setsugekka]] by Ryu*, from ''IIDX 10th Style''.
** For more great stuff by Ryu*, check out [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EovuuasZeDo starmine]] (4th Style) and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_EQ86z90mI Ageha]] (11th Style).
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taDGWP7bER0 Xepher]] by Tatsh, from ''IIDX 12 Happy Sky'', which was so good it appeared in a shortened version in ''DDR [=SuperNOVA=]''.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCpJvyVXyHc tripping contact]] by kors k vs. teranoid, from ''IIDX 13 [=DistorteD=]''
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4N4IF4Je2Q Bad Maniacs]] by kors k as teranoid, from ''IIDX 17 SIRUIS''. A difficult hardcore song with lyrics spoken in a feminine computer voice about killing and/or fucking you. '''"We are... ''[[PrepareToDie playing to die!]]"'''''
** "How much do you hate me now? That is not enough. I ?????? you. We will be back to ???? again soon."
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EuE5oW9YDg Contract]] by DJ Yoshitaka (aka Suzaku), also from ''IIDX 13 [=DistorteD=]''.

** However, interestingly, according to the poll in ''beatmania THE FINAL'' website, the most popular song during 5-key era is not "20, November," but [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XnRfTdxd1U super highway]] by nouvo nude. This song is included in ''beatmania IIDX 13 [=DistorteD=]''.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yW34iG4bsQw Mei]]. No explanation needed.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-0ZAmKx_Ec Raison d'être ~Kousa suru shukumei~]] by Zektbach, from beatmania IIDX 17 SIRIUS. It's pretty much Tomosuke doing a ShoutOut to himself.
