Overview
ULTRA B+K is a hardcore electronic track by nora2r that joined maimai as part of the MiLK PLUS update on September 18, 2018. The title, read as "Ultra Base Kick" (うるとら べーす きっく), positions it as the direct sequel to nora2r's earlier B.M.S. competition hit B.B.K.K.B.K.K., which originated from the konzertsaal -THE BMS OF FIGHTERS 2013- contest. Originally released on nora2r's 2016 album Access to the Light, the version featured in maimai comes with a video by the artist 出前 (Demae). With a driving 175 BPM tempo and no vocal track, the song relies on punchy kick drums, aggressive synth leads, and rapid-fire arpeggios, hallmarks of nora2r's high-energy production style. In maimai, the MASTER chart (designed by ぴちネコ) and EXPERT chart (designed by LabiLabi) are known for dense streams and slide patterns that test players' stamina at their respective levels. A remix by RoughSketch (Shohei Uno), titled ULTRA B+K (RoughSketch Remix), was released as a free download on Notebook Records' Bandcamp page.
