Editing Silent clubstep (section)

==Trivia==
*Silent clubstep was rated on 18 July 2022 and placed at #4 on the Demonlist on 11 August 2022, above [[Firework]] and below [[Sakupen Circles (Diamond)|Sakupen Circles]].
**This addition pushed Macabre into the Extended List and Missing Benefits into the Legacy List.
**On 23 April 2023, the placement of [[Avernus]] briefly pushed Silent clubstep out of the Top 5 of the Demonlist. The level was then moved from #6 to #3, above Slaughterhouse and below Avernus.
***This change pushed [[Abyss of Darkness]] out of the Top 5 of the Demonlist.
***Due to this change, Silent clubstep was technically Top 1 for 47 days before [[Acheron]] was placed.
*Silent clubstep used to be one of the most disliked levels in Geometry Dash.
**However, players still criticise the level for its unconventional gameplay and chokepoints, especially in the pre-drop, asymmetric dual, and the infamous '8 Jumps of Hell'.<ref name=":0"/><ref name=":1"/><ref name=":2"/>
*Silent clubstep was ranked #69 in Geometry Dash Today's list of 'The Top 100 Greatest Geometry Dash Levels Of All Time'.
*On 7 March 2022, icedcave uploaded a showcase of the official sequel called Silent Clubstep II.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UEaJkAViN4</ref>
**Skittle Catastrophe is currently verifying the level and has made notable progress, holding the record of 31% and achieving a 38-98% run four times.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=912f22clyVQ</ref>
*In Update 1.9, Sailent created a buffed and extended remake of Silent clubstep called Sailent Clubstar. It uses the full song.
*Because of [[Update 2.0]], Nautilus2k (Sailent) made a new account for all his levels and transferred all the levels there. The author's name changed to SuperNautilus, so many considered the level deleted.
*[[Stormfly]] created and verified a redecorated, nerfed version of Silent clubstep called Silentium Gradas.
**Silentium Gradas was verified on 11 May 2018 and rated in November 2018, becoming the first version of Silent clubstep to be rated.
*[[Zobros]] was the first player to beat Silent clubstep while recording in practice mode.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2cn1GP1xNo</ref>
**Zobros's video is the oldest footage of Silent clubstep, showcasing the first real known version of the level.
*ZorroZ Zet made an infamous speed-hacked, nerfed, and cut walkthrough of Silent clubstep.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8YY_nJWEo8</ref>
**ZorroZ Zet's version is the first publicly showcased version of Silent Clubstep, though it was modified.
***ZorroZ Zet's version differs significantly from the official versions.
****One difference is the complete pitch-black dual-cube and infamous ship sections at the beginning of ZorroZ Zet's version, compared to having increased visibility in the official versions; the ship section in ZorroZ Zet's version is also semi-auto, having ceiling platforms to assist.
****Another difference is the transition from the ball section to the UFO section, with a mirror portal in ZorroZ Zet's version but absent in official versions; the reason for its absence is unknown.
****Another difference is that the maze does not have blocks to block off incorrect paths; instead, there are a few different exits at the top, so it is possible to stay above the entire maze to pass.
*There have been roughly eight versions of Silent clubstep in its history.
**The current unnerfed version of Silent clubstep is referred to as the third version. However, the 'true unnerfed' version, the same one on which Zobros did a practice mode run, is referred to as the second version; the first version, the supposed actual true unnerfed version, is unfortunately lost media.
***Comparing the 'true unnerfed' version to the current unnerfed one, the original structure near the end of the drop ship was much more extended downwards, which was later trimmed down in the current version.
****This change was made because the gap was not possible in Update 1.9.<ref>https://x.com/icedcave/status/2082242920740958330</ref>
*There was a version of Silent clubstep created by [[Cyrillic]] under the account name Sailence. It is believed that Cyrillic wanted to upload his own version as a way to 'restore' Silent clubstep, thinking it had been deleted because he could not find it, given that the level was in the dislike range. He took Silent Clubstep Auto, uploaded by Nautilus2K, and removed the auto to 'restore' the level. However, he made many flaws in the process, such as keeping the slope at the end of the drop ship and accidentally removing the pink pad at the end of '8 Jumps of Hell', along with one of the blue pads after the fourth jump, which caused the fourth and fifth jumps to become skippable. Additionally, the background colour in the dual and the '8 Jumps of Hell' appeared bright red, unlike in any other version. However, this mistake appears to be due to the auto version, not Cyrillic.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJZfbofSuEA&lc=UgypXf4AEaxT80ZwzDh4AaABAg</ref>
*When Silent clubstep was initially made in Updates 1.8 and 1.9, sawblades had a fuller hitbox, which made the drop ship more difficult, before it was shrunk in a later update.
*vitesse, a user known for his GDBot showcases, uploaded an April Fools' video on Silent clubstep in 2019. The video stated that he verified the original version after a fictitious three-year journey (starting from late Update 1.9) was initiated by watching ZorroZ Zet's video, taking 635,000 attempts, as a follow-up to his Orochi video.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3HGMy3YWnU&t=200s</ref>
*Sailent initially did not intend Silent clubstep to be impossible. However, he made it out of frustration after losing his save data while attempting to hack-verify the original version. Sailent then rebuilt and buffed the level to its current state, mainly focusing on the first 20% and the first ship.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bjva0W2L6cI&t=804s</ref>
*Sailent never intended the '8 Jumps of Hell' in the unnerfed version of Silent clubstep to be 144FPS frame-perfect jumps, as he believed these jumps were possible on lower FPS, as they were possible on 60FPS via practice mode. The reason is that practice mode checkpoints can change the level's frame alignment and shift the timing windows to make these jumps possible. Because of this mistake, he nerfed them back to 60FPS frame-perfects as intended in the bug-fix update.<ref>https://x.com/zoe_bve/status/1549141996589162497</ref>
*A more decorated level version is called 'silent clubstep new'. Although it has been released to servers, it is currently unrated due to a lack of verification.
*Infamously, [[Cursed]] supposedly beat Silent clubstep; however, Cursed accidentally used a 0.9x hitbox multiplier to complete it, making his run invalid and leading to a ban from the Demonlist again. Cursed was eventually unbanned.
*Strylon is trying to jump from [[Deadlocked]] to Silent clubstep.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kHgn238Kq0</ref> As of 22 May 2026, he has beaten the level in two runs—15% and 15-100%.
*RealVet, in a collaboration, has created a redecorated remake of Silent clubstep in Update 2.1 called Eternal Silence.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWUg2ZILWbM</ref> The level was initially a remake of the nerfed version of Silent clubstep.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZULMy2bTC4</ref> However, after the actual level was verified, this version was updated to the unnerfed version with further decoration and bug fixes. The level is an open verification, and is set to place as Top 1 on the Demonlist once verified and rated.
**The current world record is 25%, held by nensa.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77XTJygWKQ4</ref>
**noname228gg holds the world record of 74% (and formerly 5-100%) on the legacy (LDM) mode of Eternal Silence.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=by88qCcfKkM</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxWW7HxvUznyP_TrTCQOkC_XbkDLtXHD64</ref> However, he later dropped the level.
***cc478 and ChiikawaGD currently have the best progress after noname228gg, with cc478 having runs of 73% and 14-100%,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxkfBDMo5SE</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4KXN1ARMaU</ref> and ChiikawaGD having 72% and 4-100%.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUwrz9IhAxs</ref><ref>https://x.com/ChiikawaGD/status/2091626805769720301</ref>
*The placement of Quanteuse processing on 18 January 2026 pushed Silent clubstep out of the Top 10 of the Demonlist after three and a half years.
**The reason why Silent clubstep stayed in the Top 10 for so long is that its difficulty was heavily underestimated in the past, paired with Update 2.2 that made levels above it (e.g., [[Acheron]]) easier to play.
***On 4 May 2026, Silent clubstep was raised from #13 to #11 on the Demonlist. The reason behind this is that the Demonlist team consulted as many victors of the level as they could, asking them how it compares in difficulty to levels such as Avernus, [[Anathema]], Subsuming Vortex, and [[andromeda (Level)|andromeda]], with the majority pointing to Silent clubstep as the hardest one.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hCN4CwtdHBc</ref>
**Silent clubstep was the final level rated in Update 2.1 to fall out of the Top 10.
**Both Quanteuse processing and Silent clubstep are also main level remakes (remakes of Clubstep and [[Blast Processing]], respectively), making it the only change that a main level remake pushed out another main level remake.
