This is a version of a song I made for the final boss fight in Zone of the Enders (Z.O.E.), then arranged for beatmania GOTTAMIX2. | This is a version of a song I made for the final boss fight in Zone of the Enders (Z.O.E.), then arranged for beatmania GOTTAMIX2. | ||

The vocals were sung by soprano opera singer Maiko Horisawa, who is apparently set to release a solo album in December this year and perform in concert in New York. Her unique singing techniques are used here to great effect, and even when altered brim with a tasteful, mysterious air. For those of you who want to hear the original song, I urge you to buy Z.O.E. and listen to the ending staff roll (PR: Maki Kirioka). That's all for now, hope you'll listen again soon. | The vocals were sung by soprano opera singer Maiko Horisawa, who is apparently set to release a solo album in December this year and perform in concert in New York.

The word "Gamelan" in the genre's name "Gamelan Minimal" refers to traditional Javanese folk music from the island of Bali. It's a peculiar and energetic ensemble centered around metal percussion instruments. Given its traditional composition of strong minimalistic elements, I thought that maybe it would work well with techno. Also, the strange "Cha cha, cha cha" voices that show up mid-song is called Kecak. This is another form of Balinese folk music (and dance?). | The word "Gamelan" in the genre's name "Gamelan Minimal" refers to traditional Javanese folk music from the island of Bali.
