Csikós Post
Csikós Post () is a galop in the Key (music), key of E minor by the German composer Hermann Necke (1850–1912). Csikós is a Hungarian mounted horse-herdsman; ''Hungarian Post'' is an acrobatic riding performance where the rider stands on the back of two horses and Driving (horse), drives three more horses in front (:C:Pickaxe arrangement, pickaxe arrangement). The melodic line in which the piece transitions to C major is a variation on a melody from Franz Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2. The piece has been used repeatedly in video games including ''Yoshi's Cookie'' (as Action Type B for the SNES version and Versus Type C for the NES and Game Boy versions), ''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games'', ''Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix'' (as Fishing Frenzy), ''Nintendogs + Cats'' (used as a music record which you could buy at the store), ''Hamtaro: Ham-Hams Unite!''

Galop
In dance, the galop, named after the fastest running gait of a horse (see Gallop), a shortened version of the original term galoppade, is a lively country dance, introduced in the late 1820s to Parisian society by the Duchesse de Berry and popular in Vienna, Berlin and London. In the same closed position familiar in the waltz, the step combined a glissade with a chassé on alternate feet, ordinarily in a fast time. The galop was a forerunner of the polka, which was introduced in Prague ballrooms in the 1830s and made fashionable in Paris when Raab, a dancing teacher of Prague, danced the polka at the Odéon Theatre in 1840. In Australian bush dance, the dance is often called galopede. An even livelier, faster version of the galop called the can-can developed in Paris around 1830. The galop was particularly popular as the final dance of the evening. The " Post Horn Galop", written by the cornet virtuoso Herman Koenig, was first performed in London in 1844; it remains a si ...

Light Music Compositions
Light, visible light, or visible radiation is electromagnetic radiation that can be perceived by the human eye. Visible light spans the visible spectrum and is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres (nm), corresponding to frequencies of 750–420 terahertz. The visible band sits adjacent to the infrared (with longer wavelengths and lower frequencies) and the ultraviolet (with shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies), called collectively '' optical radiation''. In physics, the term "light" may refer more broadly to electromagnetic radiation of any wavelength, whether visible or not. In this sense, gamma rays, X-rays, microwaves and radio waves are also light. The primary properties of light are intensity, propagation direction, frequency or wavelength spectrum, and polarization. Its speed in vacuum, , is one of the fundamental constants of nature. All electromagnetic radiation exhibits some properties of both particles and waves. Sin ...

Pump It Up (video Game Series)
''Pump It Up'' () is a music video game series developed and published by Andamiro, a South Korean arcade game producer. The game is similar to ''Dance Dance Revolution'', except that it has five arrow panels as opposed to four, and is typically or mostly played on a dance pad with five arrow panels: the bottom-left, top-left, a center, top-right, and a bottom-right. Additional gameplay modes may utilize two five-panel pads side by side. These panels are pressed using the player's feet, in response to arrows that appear on the screen in front of the player. The arrows are synchronized to the general rhythm or beat of a chosen song, and success is dependent on the player's ability to time and position their steps accordingly. The original version of the game was originally released in South Korea on 20 September 1999. The series has also expanded internationally to other markets, primarily in North America, South America, and Europe. It had slightly expanded into parts of Ocea ...
