As part of "The 8th KAC Original Song Contest", several artists affiliated with independent music label HARDCORE TANO*C collaborated on a song known as "BATTLE NO. 1". However, the song was rejected from the contest. It's theorized this was due to the artists being credited as "TANO*C Sound Team", a jab at the controversial "BEMANI Sound Team" rebranding of BEMANI's internal composers. "BATTLE NO. 1" would later be featured in other rhythm games such as WACCA, Arcaea, and the Maimai series.

The Pop'n Music songs "Dance to Blue (Respect Style)" and "Mychronicle", along with the Sound Voltex song "GERBERA" were all initially credited to "BEMANI Sound Team" (Or "伊藤賢治 Remixed by BEMANI Sound Team" in the case of "Dance to Blue (Respect Style)"). These songs marked the first usages of such a moniker in BEMANI games. It wouldn't be until December 2017 that these songs received the altered credits "伊藤賢治 Remixed by BEMANI Sound Team 'PON'", "BEMANI Sound Team 'positive MAD-crew'", and "BEMANI Sound Team 'TAG'" respectively. Since then, all in-house BEMANI songs have been credited as BEMANI Sound Team "Artist Name". Though no official breakdown for the BEMANI Sound Team moniker has been given, some theorize the change was either to distinguish in-house composers from commissioned artists (i.e. kors k and Ryu☆), or due to policies from a pachinko company merger with Konami, mandating reduced visibility of staff.
