It's like Harmonix's DLC offering hit the shuffle button. If you're super bad, head on past the break for details.

A video coming out of Germany's Gamescom convention yesterday may have accidentally revealed a whole mess of unannounced tracks for upcoming rhythm/music title Rock Band 3. During an interview shot by YouTube user GottGamesShow (since taken down), an RB3 rep could be seen scrolling through the entire setlist for the game, apparently revealing tracks from John Lennon's "Imagine" to Devo's "Whip It."

RockBandAide grabbed the whole list before the video went down, which we've dropped for you after the break. And though we've reached out to Harmonix and MTV Games for confirmation, we'd like to point out that, for now, the songs could potentially be future Rock Band Network tracks or simply placeholder. That said, we're hoping they're not -- we're pretty psyched about the two songs we already mentioned, and frankly, it's all about James Brown.

[Thanks to everyone who sent this in!]

Get up, get on up, as next week's Rock Band DLC brings some funkified freak and alternative rock. The funk pack includes the legendary performer James Brown and is labeled "01," which we'll take as some small sign that more funk is on the way. There's also several individual tracks from modern bands.

Get the Funk Out 01 3-pack (440 / $5.50)
  • "Pick Up the Pieces" - Average White Band (160 / $2)
  • "Shining Star" - Earth Wind & Fire (160 / $2)
  • "Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine - Pt 1" - James Brown (160 / $2)
Individual songs:
  • "Thrash Unreal" - Against Me! (160 / $2)
  • "All the Things That Go to Make Heaven and Earth" - The New Pornographers (160 / $2)
  • "Use It" - The New Pornographers (160 / $2)
  • "Last Resort" - Papa Roach (160 / $2)
  • "Lifeline" - Papa Roach (160 / $2)
All tracks are masters and will be available for download next Tuesday and Thursday for Xbox 360 and PS3, respectively.

The upcoming PS2/PSP breakdancing game, B-Boy will feature a pretty great licensed soundtrack when it comes to America later this summer. Touted as the first-ever competitive breakdancing game, B-Boy promises to offer over 800 motion-captured moves. B-boy legends Crazy Legs and the Rock Steady Crew helped contribute to the production, and 22 venues can be found on the disc, including Red Bull: King of the Ring, Freestyle Sessions, UK B-Boy Championships and IBE.

The soundtrack will feature 35 hip-hop and funk tracks, including The Black Eyed Peas' "Bringing It Back", James Brown's "Get On The Good Foot", Cypress Hill's "The Phuncky Feel One" and Eric B and Rakim's "Don't Sweat The Technique." It certainly looks like they're definitely trying to impress the breakdancing audience with this one -- will they succeed?
