Song Production Information

ELEKTEL

Originally, "moon race" meant "the developing American-Soviet moon race", so we had an image of a "nostalgic future".
We tried to combine 4-beat rhythms with 2STEP~FutureJazz-styled elements to make "FUTURE HOUSE", but we wonder if there are other songs in that genre.
Actually, we don't really know...

Cokeshi, who also participated in ELEKTEL's 2nd album that was just released a few days ago, performed the scat, while Tatsh, who guided this song's direction, performed the guitar featured in the intro.

There are various sounds here which don't include any of ELEKTEL's familiar 2step, House, Techno, and Club Jazz (although BMII fans have heard of this for the first time), with a rapid development, fast BPM, and melodious melody, so we included elements that players will seem to enjoy as "beatmania IIDX music", which is slightly different to "ELEKTEL's usual sound".

Video Production Information

MARS

Nice to meet you, my name is MARS, who's in charge of MOON RACE's movie.
As someone who played IIDX since the days when 1 play was 300 yen, I'm deeply moved to create this movie. However, as this was my first time making a movie like this, I was continuously worried every day since I took this role.
One night, when I listened to this song while walking and looking at the moon, I saw a figure of girl with rabbit ears doing a somersault, instead of a rabbit pounding mochi.
That's how I came up with the person seen in this video.
Technically, I'm not there yet, but I intended to do everything I could just with what I had, so I'd be happy if you can even slightly enjoy it.
