This was the last song I completed for 9th style.<br> | |||
My job of being a music game sound director actually requires me to perform various tasks, from important decisions like deciding the musicality of a title, to minor things which make me laugh, so there were many days where I couldn't focus on song production, but I started creating this song around late April after completing these various tasks, and saying "let's create a relaxing song". | |||
I think music is also very delicate. It's influenced by your mental state.<br> | |||
If you feel bad, the music will naturally be really boring, right?<br> | |||
When this happened to me, I said "anyways, let's have fun creating this" many times, and I was enthusiastic about creating this song.<br> | |||
I fondly remember going to TOWER RECORDS with [[Jun Wakita|wac]] to change my mental state. | |||
After I programmed the first note, before I knew it, a sound identical to the completed version began playing in my mind, and I added musical instruments including violin, guitar, piano, electric piano, and organ. It sounded like a live performance, except for the rhythms and bottom.<br> | |||
Since I struggle at playing the violin, there was a gap in the sound I wanted to create compared to what I created, so I had a phone call with a violinist friend who said "I can play such part!".<br> | |||
The next day, the violin and acoustic guitar had the sound I initially imagined. There was a moment that I still needed a friend. | |||
I felt that I somehow promised the vocalist something, so I decided to include Noria, as I thought she was the best match for the sound I wanted to express.<br> | |||
Someone told me that production work is like wearing clothes which suit you the most, and this was the perfect phrase!<br> | |||
It had been a year since we last [[LOVE2 Sugar|worked together]], and I was honestly surprised by her huge growth. She expressed her appeal as a singer and person (laughs).<br> | |||
She was able to record much better takes in half the time than before, and somehow wrote English lyrics for the first time.<br> | |||
Recording was also really fun. It's soft, but it also contains my harmonies. Can you hear them? | |||
I feel that this song reminded me once again that music is really enjoyable.<br> | |||
To everyone who kindly helped me, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. And above all, it'd be the best if everyone loved it. | |||
=== Noria === | |||
It's been a while, hello, I'm Noria. Thanks to everyone, I was able to participate in 2DX again. Hooray~ （≧∇≦）<br> | |||
Did you like Silvia Drive? This song contains fully English lyrics??? Yes, I think it's a very happy song.<br> | |||
Silvia Drive is about being together with your loved one across the sea on the other side of a bridge. Just by being together makes me feel happy, and I want to cherish that time.<br> | |||
It's a wonderful time to forget everything...<br> | |||
Try playing this song on a day where you feel happy! Or in days when you're not happy, try playing this song and wait for a fun tomorrow.<br> | |||
I hope it'll make you feel a bit better~ (^-^) It seems that the lyrics will be included in the soundtrack, so by all means, please try to see them★<br> | |||
Oh~ I want to fall in love!! What kind of love is everyone in? (laughs) Dating and going out are too lovely (it's a mystery)<br> | |||
This song is really nice, and TAKA provides me with the most beautiful sounds to go with Noria's voice every time, so I tried my best to not lose in this song. I did my best not to let my vocals ruin this song (>_<)<br> | |||
Also, a friend of TAKA's played the violin halfway through the song, so I'm really grateful and happy m(_ _)m Thank you very much<br> | |||
This movie was created by GYO and [[Hotaru Matsuzaki|F-FLY]], who also assisted with [[Glorious Days]]' movie. TAKA helped us during the filming too (I'm grateful).<br> | |||
And I was very happy that the 2DX staff came to watch us, that I became filled with energy... So it's a very energetic movie, isn't it? (laughs)<br> | |||
It seems that the initial plan wasn't for me to "appear" all the time, but when I heard from GYO that "Noria always appears", I was nervous and embarrassed about it (laughs)<br> | |||
I'm embarrassed when I play, so I hesitantly played it.<br> | |||
And when Noria plays this on 7KEY, it becomes a different song (tears) But I'm OK at LIGHT7 o(^-^)o<br> | |||
There are many beautiful colors in the video, and I'm really grateful to those who wonderfully created the "different types of Noria" m(_ _)m | |||
To everyone who plays IIDX, thank you very much m(_ _)m I'd be very very happy if you listen to this song.<br> | |||
Let's become gentle~ and happy together♪ I can only smile all the time like in the movie, but I'll do my best to see you all again! Thanks to everyone, this song and Noria exist.<br> | |||
Please continue to support me (^O^)<br> | |||
Most of all, I'd like to thank TAKA and the IIDX staff for giving me this song, and to all the IIDX players across Japan, thank you very much. | |||

I initially visualized a style where Noria's portrait was inserted in a movie centered on live-action scenery.<br> | |||
During filming, I emphasized the lighting to get an "authentic texture", with F-FLY as support, and TAKA as an advisor. | |||
While checking the camera, I ad-libbed the song's entire choreography while singing it as a test, and this was very charming!<br> | |||
This was a perfect performance for TAKA's first happy & lovely pop tune in a long time! It was brilliant!<br> | |||
So, I quickly changed the concept and tried to directly convey that charm into this movie. | |||
