Trivia

  • IIDX's video features several members of the beatmania IIDX staff, most noticeably Mr.T.
  • According to VJ GYO, beatmania IIDX 5th style programmer KANI fell during the production of IIDX's video, hurting his fingers. It took two months for them to fully heal.
  • Curiously enough, IIDX and Second Style(Hip Hop Paradise) have never appeared in the same beatmania IIDX game together.
  • IIDX's title references the game series where it debuted. It shares this trait with songs Keyboard Man (KEYBOARDMANIA), Dance Dance Revolution (DanceDanceRevolution), and Like a pop'n music (pop'n music).

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

It's easy to forget, but SIMON oversees IIDX from behind the scenes, and provides songs which demonstrate his versatile musicality by combining various genres in his music!
This time, it's said that HIPHOP is the "Theme of the IIDX Team".
Without anyone telling me, it's a live-action staff movie (laughs).
Although various ideas were pitched about what type of movie it will be, but there was one staff member (the person seen in the above screenshot) who I asked to play the role of a detective! I proposed the idea, and the decision was quickly and easily made.
The story is about rookie detective who is full of passion and has a sweet afro, and a veteran police inspector who is training him. Although the rookie's mistake once caused the duo to miss an illegal transaction between a courier and power broker... it's being formed.
Actually on the day of shooting, GOLI became ill despite being cast as the rookie detective, and I had to serve as his understudy. (I used to make movies similar to this during my university days!)
During the scene where KANI was attacked by a courier and fell down, he hurted several fingers on both hands (It took two months to fully recover, less than a month before the 5th production was completed). I still vividly remember what happened...
