== Music Comment ==
A solitary baroque fusion beloved by the century and the world

==== [[Takayuki Ishikawa|dj TAKA]] ====
Osamu Kubota is a musician I've known as an acquaintance before I was involved in the beatmania series, and although he has a far longer career than me, we've become close friends.<br>
His music production mainly has an orchestral and jazz taste, and he's quite a famous composer, serving as a musical director for a certain famous TV drama among others.<br>
This time, Osamu Kubota's song has pioneered a completely new, fresh genre in beatmania, which should've been quite unique, but he provided more than what I asked from him, and the result is a song that symbolizes the direction of 3rd style.<br>
Isn't this such a wonderful song?<br>
Everyone, please enjoy the brilliant fusion of Baroque elements and techniques in beatmania IIDX, such as the harpsichord, classical piano, and church organ.
 
=== KEYBOARDMANIA ===
A song crossed over from BMIIDX. I wonder if there are people who can clear this.

==== VJ GYO ====
This movie begins like an old movie with scratches on the film, and has a completely new medieval scent with an expanding progressive world, which caused the usually unfazed IIDX staff to say "wow!".<br>
We planned to collaborate with the designers from the beginning, but we hit a dead end when GOLI and I were only able to prepare one material each.<br>
This situation continued until just before production was up, and I thought I came to a situation where "I might not finish on time!", but [[Yuji Takahashi|VJ YUZ]] did a brilliant job of editing the production materials in only one day, working on it at an impossibly fast speed.<br>
The movie is created with exactly a "Presto" style (one of the tempo indications in music terminology "which means very fast"), but it also visually conveys the passionate, fast-paced development of the song.
 
=== KEYBOARDMANIA ===
==== VJ YUZ ====
I made some changes to Presto's IIDX movie.<br>
It's unrelated, but the director of the IIDX team, [[Tadao Kageyama|KAGE]], sits next to me, and often gives me mini ramen and drinks.
