Overview

Löschen is a crossover track ported from lowiro's mobile rhythm game Arcaea, appearing in maimai DX PRiSM as part of the Arcaea collaboration event (Arcaeaちほー3). The song was composed and arranged by BlackY, a prolific BMS and rhythm-game composer known for hard-hitting electronic and orchestral crossover works, with vocals and lyrics by Risa Yuzuki. Its BPM of 181 drives a tense, high-energy composition that blends aggressive synth leads with ethereal vocal lines. The title is German for "erase" or "delete," a theme reflected visually in the Arcaea pack trailer, where the protagonist's power literally erases the city around her. The song originally appeared in the paid Arcaea song pack Esoteric Order before being ported to both maimai and SEGA's ONGEKI. An extended version (vocal and instrumental) was later included on the split album Imitator by BlackY and Risa Yuzuki. In maimai, Löschen features a four-chart DX lineup. The Expert chart was designed by はっぴー (Happy), while the MASTER chart, rated 13.9 (13+), was designed by サファ太 (Safata), a charter known for dense, technically demanding patterns that test a player's endurance across all five note types.
