Partial Track List For Scratch: The Ultimate DJ

Rolling Stone runs a brief list of tracks appearing in 7 Studios' upcoming rhythm game.

Rolling Stone ran a brief article on the upcoming rhythm game from 7 Studios and Genco Interactive, Scratch: The Ultimate DJ. There isn't too much in the way of new details in there, as it's primarily built on quotes from Quincy "QD3" Jones III, who has already been announced as participating in the game's development.

But I don't think I've seen this list of music that will be in the game anywhere yet. In addition to getting new tracks from Beastie Boys' DJ, Mixmaster Mike, the game will have as-yet unannounced tracks from Run-DMC, Gorillaz, Nelly, and Deltron 3030. It will also contain these specific tracks:
  • “Flashing Lights” - Kanye West
  • “Intergalactic” - Beastie Boys
  • “Let’s Get it Started” - The Black Eyed Peas
  • “Slacker” - Tech N9ne
  • “Don’t Sweat the Technique” - Eric B. and Rakim

So far, that's a decent list, even though I don't think every one of those songs actually has any scratching in it. Hopefully the game is more than a run-of-the-mill Beatmania clone. QD3's quotes in the articles make all kinds of wild claims, including  “if you learn how to scratch on this, it’s the exact replica of the real thing. You’re essentially buying a little studio.”

Not to be too negative, Mr. 3, but I'll believe that when I see it, thanks.

deltron 3030 is the real bees knees here.  I'll probably buy it just for that.

Don't Sweat the Technique and Intergalactic are great songs. The game itself looks pretty meh though.

Personally I'd rather have more Beatmania finally come to the US. The one released for PS2 was ok, but I'd like to see more of the original DJ game.

Loving the art style, but all I see is a glorified Beatmania. Then again, that's just from one screenshot.

Also, Intergalactic, Flashing Lights, and Gorillaz FTW!
