They say Lion Musashi shook the Daibako scene with rave as an old friend of [[Reo Nagumo|tiger YAMATO]]'s, but it looks like he's an accomplished house tracker nowadays who does some DJ work in western Azabu.<br>
''Lion is [[Reo Nagumo|tiger]]'s old rave partner who once seemed to shake a chest, but now transitioned into a brilliant house tracker who participates as a DJ in Nishi-Azabu.''<br>
I got some comments from him today.

"Thank you, everyone.<br>
"Thank you for all your support.<br>
Oh, everyone keeps saying, "Safari, Safari", but my song is called "THE Safari", so say it right, please.<br>
Everyone keeps saying "SAFARI SAFARI", but my song is called "THE SAFARI", so say it properly.<br>

Apparently, Lion Musashi came to dj TAKA and said, "You guys should pick the song name". Somehow it fell into my hands.<br>
dj TAKA was requested by Lion to "add the song title to this song in your way", but he just came and asked me what to do.<br>
According to dj TAKA, Mr. Lion is kind of a scary guy, so even if he says we can pick the name, what will happen if he doesn't like it ... ?<br>
According to dj TAKA, Lion seems to be quite a scary person, so even if he says we can decide on the song title, if he doesn't like it, he'll get somewhat angry... that's what he said.<br>
That's the kind of thing I worried about, since I had no real relation to him ...
But in the end, there wasn't a direct connection with what he thought...


It has a pretty cheery rhythm, and feels kind of like a song for a trip down south and evoked the image of a long journey, so I thought "THE SAFARI", which has kind of a deep ring to it, fit it pretty nicely. From the sounds of the comments above, it seems he really likes it too - I'm glad!
The entire song has a bright and energetic groove, and images of a southern adventure and a big trip came to mind, so I named it "THE SAFARI", which has a powerful ring when considering its nuance.<br>
From reading Lion's above comment, it's really great that he was attached to it!  


It'd be nice if dj TAKA said "thanks", though.
I'm slightly thankful to dj TAKA.
