So NAOKI said to me, "why not do a song with a revolutionary theme together"? However, I was nervous about being able to finish this song, as production was already late into 7th style when he asked me of this. I know that the song title translates into "Revolution", which I kept in mind while making this song and the state of the song. The DDR and IIDX teams decided to have the song as a hidden song in both games, which we managed to do near the end of the schedule's build. The following song produced under these conditions is this "revolution". NAOKI's piano music provides the basic track, where the orchestra arrangements I provide finished up the song process while in the lean progression of making the song.
==== TAKA ====
When NAOKI asked me, "why not do a song with a revolutionary theme together?", I was in a rather mixed state of mind, being half happy and anxious about whether this could be achieved.<br>
This was because the game was near the end of production and there was still so much work to be done, so I was in a state where I couldn't say I would make another song.<br>
As seen from the song title translated as "Revolution", the song was originally made as the last boss song in DDR, but I persuaded others to include it in IIDX as the hidden centerpiece song of both games, with "Kakumei" finished after unreasonable schedule changes.<br>
For the production, I received NAOKI's piano performance and basic track, then I repeatedly created the orchestra arrangements and layered the rhythm track, becoming a smart process without wasting time.
 
The artist name became "dj TAKA with NAOKI", but this song was made possible by the last-minute schedule coordination and teamwork of everyone involved, including ucchie, who wrote the charts, Jiishima, who was in charge of the DDR charts, and the directors and crews of both games.
 
=== DanceDanceRevolution ===
==== NAOKI ====
As someone who likes Chopin, I had hoped to try a situation like this sometime, so thanks to dj TAKA's cool talent and huge help, this arrangement of "Kakumei" was completed, making full use of present day technology.


The artist name is credited to "dj TAKA with NAOKI", but with ucchie writing the charts and Jiishima-kun in charge of the DDR charts, the directors of both DDR and IIDX, as well as both teams' crews, we really worked together as team players to coincide with everyone's schedules. And thus we made music together.
Regarding "Kakumei" personally, it's a revolution in DDR, and it has become a meaningful song within the series.

So for beat#1, we decided to enrol Kakumei as the first and last boss song of all time, right?
Has anyone encountered this unprecedented boss song in beat#1?<br>

That is, until we heard someone on staff checked for bugs and noted that [[MAX 300]] had been HARD cleared.
