Song Production Information
Yoshihiko Koezuka
Yoshihiko Koezuka here, who usually works in GITADORA.
So DDR... what is dance music? Well, because I don't know, I don't feel scared, and I feel rather free instead.
I thought an inorganic feeling would be better than a melodic one, so I worked hard on the rhythm and riff of the intro~A melody.
But shortly afterwards, when there was a little of guitar solo development, I changed it to riff... patience ^^.
The climax melody is super easy to remember. I think that I completed a passionate song as a result.
I'd be pleased if you can feel the passion of a glimpse in a dry space.
