== Song Connections / Remixes == | |||
* FANTASY is a dance remix of the 1978 disco track of the same name by American funk group, Earth, Wind, & Fire. | |||
* An extended, megamixed version of FANTASY can be found on the [[beatmania IIDX 4th style Original Soundtracks]] album. | |||
== Trivia == | == Trivia == | ||
* | * FANTASY's notecharts were created by [[Jun Wakita|wac]]. | ||
* FANTASY is one of the only two licenses in beatmania IIDX history to be removed from the arcade and later revived. Both it and [[JIVE INTO THE NIGHT]] were revived in [[AC 9th style|beatmania IIDX 9th style]]. | |||
* | ** Unlike JIVE TO THE NIGHT, though, FANTASY was not revived again in [[AC GOLD|beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD]]. | ||
* At the time of its debut, FANTASY had the most notes of any Single chart in beatmania IIDX, with 1196 notes on its ANOTHER chart. | |||
* | ** This record was beaten [[AC 5th style|the following game]] by [[V]]'s 1519. V would hold this position until [[AC IIDX RED|beatmania IIDX 11 IIDX RED]]. | ||
== Song Production Information == | |||
=== Wac === | |||
Well, it's give-and-take. No rest for the notechart creator. I'm Wac.<br> | |||
Regards from [[AC pnm Animelo 2|Animelo 2]]. beatmania's notecharts are popular among IIDX players. Pay attention to the ending! In 4thStyle.<br> | |||
Now, about FANTASY. I'm sure many people have heard the original song, it's a super famous song by EARTH WIND&FIRE.<br> | |||
wac hasn't been involved in the IIDX series since [[AC 2nd style|2ndStyle]], but I'm secretly happy to be in charge of an Earth cover, following from [[Brazilian Rhyme]] during that time. (Or rather, I took over from the [[Tomoyuki Uchida|mustache man]]. He wanted to do Kin-chan (Kinnikuman)'s [[Honoo no Kinnikuman|song]] in Animelo, so I guess it's alright)<br> | |||
To the young people who don't know the original song, by all means, please listen to the Earth version. It's hot. Anyways, it's in space.<br> | |||
By the way, the original album, not the best of, also includes Brazilian Rhyme. It's a bargain.<br> | |||
Now, let's discuss the notechart. It's the DANCE EXPRESS Hi-Speed version, so it's very fast and difficult, but I consciously created them to be gentle to people... when I said that, [[Tadao Kageyama|KAGE]] kept asking me "can you clear it?".<br> | |||
Yes, I still couldn't clear it. I'll try very hard to practice it, so please forgive me.<br> | |||
By the way, the mustache man is attached to everything. He's weird.<br> | |||
It doesn't matter, but I went to do karaoke with [[Takayuki Ishikawa|dj TAKA]], [[Reo Nagumo|dj nagureo]], and the sound data analyzers the other day, and they said "you were in charge of it" and forced me to sing FANTASY (the original song), which was disastrous.<br> | |||
The lyrics don't appear like in DDR or Animelo, but let's all sing it, too. During the game. That's impossible. | |||
== | == Video Production Information == | ||
=== VJ GYO === | |||
Of all the music I've heard, with all due respect, I haven't heard any EARTH WIND&FIRE before, and even when Wac told me that it was a cover of their super famous song, I couldn't recognize it.<br> | |||
But after listening to this song, I started to think it was really nice~ (maybe it was easy to listen to from the Eurobeat arrangement).<br> | |||
Even though it feels painful and depressing, if you keep on wishing... many emotional things come to my mind during such situations. | |||
== Difficulty & Notecounts == | |||
beatmania IIDX difficulty rated from 1 to 7 from in 4th style, 1 to 7+ from 5th through 9th style, and 1 to 8 in 10th style.<br> | |||
