One of the best music franchises on the PSP is making the jump to Sony's next handheld. The Korean-developed DJ Max series will make its Vita debut with DJ Max Technika.

Intriguingly, developer Pentavision is promising to utilize both the front and rear touch pads.

For those unfamiliar with the DJ Max series, here's a video from Technika, showing off the game's mix of insane button mapping and catchy Asian music:
