Song Production Information

HEIGO TANI

This version of beatmania was a compilation of ethnic music, and so I was put in charge of Celtic music. I struggled a lot to create the melody, as Celtic music refers to music created by Irish people, with there being various kinds. I also tried to combine a Celtic-style melody with the currently popular genre of trance, as well as breakbeats to make the beats complex. Don't get flustered by these complex beats, just do your best to stay on rhythm and succeed at the game.
