The phrase "moon race" used to refer to the American-Soviet competition to land on and develop the moon. I aimed for an image of a nostalgic future. I used elements from straight four-beat music as well as 2step and Future Jazz elements and combined them into "Future House", but I'm probably just making that genre up. I really don't know ... | The phrase "moon race" used to refer to the American-Soviet competition to land on and develop the moon. I aimed for an image of a nostalgic future.

Hi, I'm MARS, and I was in charge of the MOON RACE movie. Nice to meet you. It's very moving to be able to create a movie for IIDX, since I've been playing since the days where a single play was 300 yen (n.b.: about $2 by the conversion rates of the time, but closer to $3 now). But, since this is my first time making a movie like this, my days were full of worries from the moment I undertook this endeavour. On one of those nights, as I was listening to this song and walking along in the moonlight, I saw not the usual rabbit making mochi in the moon, but a young girl with rabbit ears. (n.b.: the traditional Japanese "man in the moon" is a rabbit making rice cakes.) The movie became what is is now based on that idea. There are improvements that could probably be made in the finished product, but I did my best to make this movie the best I could on my own abilities, so if you like it even a little bit I'll be very happy. | Hi, I'm MARS, and I was in charge of the MOON RACE movie.
