Trivia
- Back Spin Sweeper's genre is a reference to the wagon wheel effect, an optical illusion in which a spoked wheel that is spinning quickly will appear to be rotating slower than it is or in the opposite direction of its actual movement.
- Back Spin Sweeper is available in beatmania IIDX INFINITAS (2020) as part of the beatmania IIDX INFINITAS Music Pack vol.15 (beatmania IIDX INFINITAS 楽曲パック vol.15).
Song Production Information
BEMANI Sound Team "DJ TOTTO"
The main concept for this IIDX is a race! Speaking of that, what comes to mind when someone thinks of a race...
Yeah! Of course it's the "wagon-wheel effect"!
I made this song to have a race feeling, with the theme of what would be like if the song expresses the wagon-wheel effect by sound.
The backspins are there to express a strange illusion of a wheel turning contrary to the direction that should have turned!
I had the idea of linking reverse played sounds with game elements since an early stage, so I tried making it. It's good to remember to play again a phrase in reverse from the end.
I'll be pleased if you can enjoy the wagon-wheel feeling in the game.
Video Production Information
cap
I was in charge of the movie. I'm cap.
I expressed the sense of swift speed changes to match the impression that the song gave me.
I was able to run through the end while spinning with the backspins, making the best that I could with my skills.
