Make a song for it" → Well, let's ask Des for a pop'n song. Can you please do it? → D "OK. I'll make a demo. But I'm busy, so 96 will play the guitar" → If 96 is participating, let's do something like a collaboration with everyone → Des' demo arrives → Wow, It's too avant-garde, I don't get it at all, and there's no melody → What will PON do? → P "I don't know at all" → Well, let's just sleep for now → Sho "well, there's one week left until the deadline" → Oh no, we haven't touched it yet → But the demo is still too difficult to get → Let's copy it by ear for now → Let's cut out the parts we don't get for now → Since it's better to end with a bang than a whimper, let's move the hook to the chorus → Oh no, there isn't a hook → Since the intro is cool, let's expand it into the hook → Well, D will add the melody → D "I added it" → An electric piano in the ending sounds nice. After all, I want it to be a collaboration with everyone. If there's an electric piano, then TOMOSUKE can play it. Well, let's have him play a Rhodes solo... → T "OK, I played it" → As expected of his skill. That's right, who's the vocalist? → Sana is the hottest pop'n-like vocalist here → OK, I'll secretly cater the melody to Sana → "Sana, please sing it tomorrow. By the way, I'll give you the demo tomorrow" → Sana graciously accepted it. Probably → Well, 96 will play the guitar while Sana is singing → PON, let's also do something. Well, let's clearly remake it as a rhythm team → Oh, Sana's going to sing it in one hour, but there aren't lyrics yet → Well, I'll write the lyrics with a truly knit feeling where everyone's intertwined → I did it. Before I realized, the knit turned into a quilt → I recorded Sana's vocals → She's really amazing. Then why is Des entering the booth? → D "here's my chorus" → I didn't ask for it, but that's alright<br> | ||
