Song Production Information
BEMANI Sound Team "Nidaime Suzaku"
Did you know? "Shuuen no Claudia" somehow seemed to have Suzaku wails in 2013.
Going back further from there, "Himiko" had Suzaku wails in 2008, which turned many players into dust.
... And now, 2024 is here.
Finally after a long time, a brand-new legendary song co-produced with my predecessor "Suzaku" has Suzaku wails this time.
If you were to compare the brand-new Suzaku wailing song to a doll creation, I first asked my predecessor to draw a face, which I roughly sketched as a faceless being, then we finally both applied makeup to it while saying this and that, and made it as a groovy song.
Since I usually immediately start drawing from the face, it was quite refreshing to create it without being able to predict what it looks like, and when it was completed, I think it resulted in an overflowing Suzaku wailing collaboration which felt quite good.
So, we've delivered a song with several Suzaku wails as usual, and by all means, please try to count how many Suzaku wails there actually are throughout this song.
Please comment this on my behalf! That's why I'd be happy if you enjoy the "Suzaku duo" story filled with my predecessor's feelings.
