This ska song was a pioneer in the BEMANI series! Were you able to experience that high-speed backbeat?

This song had the hardest difficulty level since the beginning of beatmania. The music genre called ska has a similar backbeat focus to reggae, and features a fast and light tempo, different to reggae's strong and comfortable rock influence.<br>
This song also uses plenty of ragga rap, and in contrast to the accompanying vocals and the song's laid-back composition, many players will be sent into the abyss.

I created this song for [https://web.archive.org/web/20150507183511/http://www.konami.jp/am/bm/2nd/ beatmania 2nd MIX], which led to the immediate breakthrough of music games. At that time, this song had the highest difficulty level, and it was said that the final barrage of "ska streams" was the most difficult point. It's been 10 years since then....<br>
The EX chart uses an arranged version by KEN MATSUMOTO from [https://web.archive.org/web/20150507183510/http://www.konami.jp/am/bm/be_core/ beatmania CORE REMIX].<br>
It's been a long time since I listened to it, but oh! It's cool. While retaining the original song's phrases, does it feel like walking alone down a new life? If I compare it in human terms, isn't it similar to parents having an only child who resembles them, but cooler, and raising them to be strong, despite appearing slightly middle-aged? There's a particularly enjoyable feeling of having others arrange and remix my own songs, and this is what I love the most.

It's too nostalgic!<br>
It was personally a big boss song, along with [[super highway|SUPER HIGH WAY]].<br>
At that time, I often wet my pillow when facing that last song..
 
 
Now! It's in pop'n! I thought I could clear it... even its HYPER chart was difficult to clear.<br>
(I could clear it if I used S-RANDOM, but it feels like failing...)
 
=== [[Takao Yamamoto|amamon.]] ===
As expected, when I played this song's charts in pop'n, it was immersive.<br>
My fingers hurt....
 
=== [[Yuki Shibata|Mameshiba]] ===
I cried every time I reached the high-speed barrage at the end of the NORMAL chart. When the barrage of red and right-side blue notes appear, I simultaneously press the red + right-side green buttons...<br>
I use red = left hand, right-side blue = right hand, and right-side green = right hand, so if I slightly lean right and use red = right hand, right-side blue = left hand, and right-side green = right hand, perhaps I could clear it!?
 
...The next day...<br>
I tried using the above method and slightly increased my score!<br>
But it wasn't high enough... hmm... it's difficult...

It finally came! I'm happy! I played this song when my allowance was still 1000 yen! I wanted to participate just a bit, so I created a 3P color (laughs). That chicken in the background. The words appear that way.<br>
However. Well, it seems I don't have enough strength to clear this song! I have one gauge left, but....
 
=== TOMOSUKE ===
To be honest, I was in charge of creating the N chart.<br>
At that time, when I first encountered this song in beatmania 2ndMIX, which everyone played, I failed at the final stream-like part, as expected.<br>
And as a result of thinking about it, if I press 1+5 and 1+4 with my right hand, while pressing 3 with the middle finger on my left hand, oh~ wow~, how did I do that! It became easy.<br>
So, I almost perfectly recreated the chart with that feeling again.<br>
By all means, please try to simultaneously press with your right hand, while using your left hand as support.

Do I remember SKA a gogo? OK, let's talk about it.<br>
Looking back eight years ago, I was involved in developing beatmaniaIIDX substream.<br>
Speaking of Ska, as everyone knows, it was the initial beatmania wall song, but I wasn't very familiar with beatmania at that time.<br>
I first heard about this song when working here, from the IIDXsubstream cabinet I was in charge of developing.<br>
Anyways, the up-and-coming sound designer at that time, dj TAKA, created the ANOTHER chart! I was also ordered to create a few ANOTHER charts for [[PARANOiA MAX~DIRTY MIX~|PARANOiA]], [[celebrate]], and other songs, but if I remember correctly, dj TAKA created this masterpiece of SKA a gogo's ANOTHER chart.<br>
dj TAKA was still amazed by the novel idea of the stream, said to be the final death zone which increasingly multiplies, and I rolled my tongue.<br>
This time, the HYPER chart included in pop'n is the beatmania completeMIX2 version by DOCTOR S, which is even harder than the IIDX ANOTHER chart it was based on.<br>
Furthermore, the EX chart is the SKACORE mix from CORE REMIX, with the song title and artist name originally changed, but it was impossible to include due to hardware problems. I'm sorry, KEN MATSUMOTO.<br>
And for the difficulty levels of the HYPER and EX charts, as a result of repeated test plays, I thought about both charts having the same difficulty level from "luck" and "biorhythm dependency", but it was impossible to include due to hardware problems.
