(→Song Production Information: コアウィ = 怖い (?) . Also I took some liberty translating this guy's comments. The most interesting was "人生のツケというやつは最も自分にとって(一番)苦しい時に(払うことになる)必ず回ってくるものらしい".) |

Hello there, I'm God. Wait, no, no. Absolutely not. Please call me Kami-Sama.<br> | |||
This time, [[Ryutaro Nakahara|Kagura]] and I, who we are close to each other in terms of appearance, played as if we were a god-god duo.<br> | |||
In other words, I'm like the god who doesn't have fun.<br> | |||
I have no fun here. In fact, I am not having fun at all.<br> | |||
As if, at the retirement games of professional baseball players, there are those who give a press conference saying that they never had any fun playing baseball.<br> | |||
I probably feel the same way. After all, I am a professional. | |||
As I was mumbling to myself, I was limping, without spirit or energy, as usual.<br> | |||
And then, [[Toshiyuki Kakuta|L.E.D.]], the devout lamb, made a wish for me to write a song for IIDX.<br> | |||
Well, it's not a wish, strictly speaking, but it's more of a business request instead. And it came. It just came one day. | |||
God was furious. God doesn't understand IIDX.<br> | |||
Before I knew it, the most talented track makers in the music scene had gathered together.<br> | |||
IIDX has become a place where the latest club music is performed using the latest equipment, the latest techniques, and the latest taste.<br> | |||
To be frank, I don't get it. It's scary. It makes me scared. (My personal opinion.)<br> | |||
It's no longer something that can be handled with the same old skills I had. So I feel like I don't want to be in the same ring with them.<br> | |||
I don't want to be in the same ring as you. To be frank, IIDX is no longer my place anymore! You know that, right? | |||
I've been saying these things over and over again in my mind, running away, putting it off, and before I knew it, it had been about eight years since I contributed.<br> | |||
In other words, it seems that the time for paying tribute has finally come for this time.<br> | |||
I may be a god, but I have to pay tribute to the humans. It is said that the more ears of rice grow, the more they droop their heads.<br> | |||
But if this is the case, then I should have at least written about it in Rootage, which looks back on the past.<br> | |||
It's a nostalgic story, and I could have made an excuse that it's old-fashioned and on target. | |||
Well, as Mistborn said, the bill for your life will be paid at the most difficult time.<br> | |||
To students who have a bright future ahead of them, please be careful. It's really dangerous to put things off like that. | |||
But God is a man of information, so he know exactly what he's talking about.<br> | |||
IIDX has traveled to a lot of places this time, right? It's basically like, "Travelling is awesome, let's go somewhere sometime!" Something like that, right?<br> | |||
If so, it will be a music from a region that no one knows, like ''Unjarague Travia''.<br> | |||
If you make music that no one knows the correct answer to, you might be able to fool them somehow...?<br> | |||
I was trying to find a ray of hope in this low-level direction.<br> | |||
As if he had realized this, L.E.D. appeared dashingly and said,<br> | |||
"If that's so, please choose a hot spring as the theme." | |||
Huh.<br> | |||
Hot springs.<br> | |||
Hmmm. Hot springs...<br> | |||
Let's make it a samba and sing "Viva Viva Non". No?<br> | |||
Then... | |||
Let's start with an intro that sounds like [[FLOWER]].<br> | |||
Then maybe I'll make a solemn harpsichord that resembles a public bath in ancient Rome.<br> | |||
Let's get a bunch of anthropomorphic warriors from various hot spring resorts and have them shout "OOH!"<br> | |||
If you're looking for a hero song, you can't go wrong with the timpani and marimba arrangements from the past.<br> | |||
IIDX's scratch sounds have always been either cymbals or timpani. | |||
Now, I was starting to feel like I had a good idea of what I wanted to do.<br> | |||
In fact, I was trying to keep my distance from L.E.D. as naturally as possible when the delivery date started to flicker.<br> | |||
As if he had realized this, L.E.D. appeared again and said, | |||
"Excuse me. I know it's a little shameful for me to do this, but for various reasons, please make the music theme a volcano instead of a hot spring.<br> | |||
Huh.<br> | |||
Volcano.<br> | |||
Hmmm. A volcano...<br> | |||
The god was furious. In his anger, he spewed fire, like the old man's violent eruption.<br> | |||
The flames that erupted as a result lit up the night and burned the whole world for seven days.<br> | |||
As a result, people recognized the volcanic eruption, and thus the flaming aftermath, as the wrath of God.<br> | |||
Sometimes they feared it, sometimes they respected it, and sometimes they used it to burn iron, make tools, bake food, and warm themselves.<br> | |||
In other words, this culinary evolution is the reason why IIDX BISTROVER was born in the future. | |||
I don't care what you say.<br> | |||
In fact, unfortunately, or fortunately, even though it was just before the deadline, I had only played about five notes on the timpani.<br> | |||
I had no reason to be angry, and was rather pleased that the deadline had been extended.<br> | |||
I threw away the idea of the hot spring and solemnly wrote the volcano song with a completely fresh mind.<br> | |||
In other words, what I wanted to convey the most in this long article is a lesson that postponement is not always a bad thing.<br> | |||
I will continue to do my best to put things off.<br> | |||
In the end, I was not a good person in many ways, so I have been given a pardon for my genre. | |||
I'll see you again in probably around eight years.<br> | |||
This is God. | |||
