Original

Don't stop (the)sweet soul music
Keep on free ・・・ soul music
 
Don't stop
Don't stop
Don't stop

「狂わすような愛撫
 消し去ってしまってよ全部
 あなたの全てを内部に
 そう・・・ばらまいてよ  more deep」
  
Why don't we play it your way
The night is short to waste
Into the moody starlight
We disappear
 
Fly away to fantasy
Feeling love in so deep
Until we reach eternity
 
Don't stop
 
Don't stop sweet soul music
Keep on free ・・・

Transliteration

Don't stop (the)sweet soul music
Keep on free ... soul music
 
Don't stop
Don't stop
Don't stop

"kuruwasu you na aibu
 keshisatte shimatte yo zenbu
 anata no subete wo naibu ni
 sou...bara maite yo more deep"
  
Why don't we play it your way
The night is short to waste
Into the moody starlight
We disappear
 
Fly away to fantasy
Feeling love in so deep
Until we reach eternity
 
Don't stop
 
Don't stop sweet soul music
Keep on free ...

Don't stop (the)sweet soul music
Keep on free ・・・ soul music

Why don't we play it your way
The night is short to waste

Into the moody starlight
We disappear
 
Fly away to fantasy
Feeling love in so deep

「狂わすような愛撫

Before the morning lights come
Find out the shape of love
Under the dreamy moonlight
We celebrate

Fade away to the Galaxy
Burning love in so deep
We got it all just through the night

Don't stop (the)sweet soul music
Keep on free ・・・ soul music

Don't stop sweet soul music
Keep on free・・・

Song Production Information

beatmania IIDX 5th style -new songs collection-

"Moto kuguri Johnny" Togo

This song is based on "more deep" that I wrote for the now nostalgic "beatmania APPEND GOTTAMIX" (released in 1999), rearranged it with a genre called 2STEP.

I didn't have enough time during the production of GOTTAMIX, so I quickly made it with basic equipment, and it stuck in my mind for a long time. (It doesn't means it's good if you have time to make it with good equipment, however...)
So for that reason, I tried to create it with the thought of "let's settle it", but after all, "It's selfish of me ~smug~" (... You've heard that somewhere, right?).
Also, did I promise club/techno-styled rhythms for a while? I was fed up with "four-beat kicks", so let's go with a 2STEP without "four-beat kicks"!... So I said.

Now, when I just started production, I reunited with the guitarist named Kenji Suzuki after 10 years for another project.
He was from the same music school as me, and has been a catchy guitar player since then. He is currently very active in the major scene, recording and touring for artists such as Hikaru Utada and Misia!
Well, when I saw him play amazingly up close, I suddenly felt weak and immediately told him, "Oh, I'm not going to play guitar by myself this time".
(I poorly played the guitar in L.E.D.'s song... Kaku-chan, I'm sorry [laughs])
So listen & press to his nice guitar play.

Of course, the cute honey(?) diva "Sana" reprises and doubles the charm as the vocalist!
Oh..., and the sound director of pop'n, "Haya-P", also participates in it.

I want to make a long version of this song someday for music CDs etc., so by all means, please listen to it again.

Togo

I tried to include an old A.O.R.-styled mature(?) melody in a 2STEP-styled beat.
It's always a headache finding the right balance between the contradictory "club/dance progression" VS. "song progression with a story".
It was a difficult delivery, but I somehow gave birth safely!
The guitar by Suzuken (Kenji Suzuki), who is also active as a guitarist for artists such as Misia and Hikaru Utada, is very effective.

Sana

"more deep" is perhaps the most mature song I've sung.
Two people in love burn their hearts out, then turn into stardust and disappear in the night sky.
At that time, the power of love released was so deep, that Sana had selfish delusions of it as not deeper, but "more deep".
Have you ever felt so passionate, that you think it's alright to fall to the depths?

Video Production Information

Yasi

The original song was two years ago... time flies by so fast.
At that time, I never thought these types of movies would be included in the home version of beatmania, from the pixel art movies in the 5-key beatmania.... This is when the PS2 was still a rumor.

Well, finally this time, I mean, I finally said... we have released it. The true face of Sana, the BEMANI diva.
In my previous work, "SANA MOLLETE NE ENTE", some effects were overexposed for her to remain anonymous, but it received a poor reception for being "scary" and "irritating", so I tried to keep it as straightforward as possible this time.

The location was in a rented studio in Tokyo.
I wanted to capture as much footage of Togo-chef's hands as possible, so I asked him to let me come along to the recording session.
For some reason, Sana is wearing a stage costume, although she was supposed to be in "plain" clothes.

Yasi

It feels like a rather long time ago now that I've created this video, and my memories of making it are fading, but...

Anyways, I didn't have materials or time to make the movie, so I forced myself to go to the studio and film the song's recording.
There was something like a rough "aim" to show the behind-the-scenes atmosphere of an artist, but in the end, it became a movie with no twist whatsoever, so I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved and apologize.

Come to think of it, Sana's vocal debut in the first PS version of beatmania in 1998 started half-jokingly, but I hope it will remain as a good memory for Togo and Sana, the driving forces behind it.
