Song Production Information

dj TAKA

Here is TaQ's latest production, the hard techno song Holic. By the way, a lot of people have been asking, "How do you pronounce TaQ?" The correct answer is "Taku". In German, Q is pronounced like "ku". TaQ spent his childhood years in Germany, and it looks like "TaQ" is a favorite nickname he picked up there. I think there are a lot of people who think TaQ's works have a certain German techno feel to them, including Holic; this may be why.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

The catch copy for 3rd style is "CYBERbeatNATION"; it seems the songs that express this particular world view the best are probably dj TAKA's LEADING CYBER and this song, "Holic" from TaQ. If I had to say why, it's because they're songs that give you a very dark feeling with faltering or becoming depressing; they're both song that are overflowing with a violent energy that seems to suck you in.
