MPB is | I'm most influenced by MPB, which is my favorite genre that gives me the best feeling, and I've currently written songs with such atmosphere in the [[Nova emocao|MAMBO A GO GO]] and [[Brazilian Anthem|Gitadora]] series.<br> | ||
So, this | So, this is the third song in my MPB song series! It turned out like this, but Tizona has a slightly different direction than my previous two songs, as it's based on Spanish music.<br> | ||
The guitar | The guitar closely incorporates Spanish scales and stroke techniques, rather than using a bossa nova approach.<br> | ||
The keyboard instruments have a '70s fusion feel, | The keyboard instruments have a '70s fusion feel, using quite complicated tension notes such as many detailed modulations. | ||

Tizona d'El Cid is a sword that belonged to El Cid, a hero | Tizona d'El Cid is a sword that belonged to El Cid, a Reconquista hero active in 11th century Spain.<br> | ||
After El Cid's death, I imagined that this sword passed through the hands of various people and finally into the hands of a beautiful gypsy dancer, while creating this song by layering a Reconquista scene with the dancer's graceful movements.<br> | |||
I originally | I originally made this song for IIDX, but in order to flow with "Brazilian Anthem", I included it in Gitadora by rearranging the drum patterns and other parts. | ||

I created this song for IIDX, but I thought that it could be crossed over to Gitadora while making it.<br> | |||
The guitarist is Jun Kaziwara, who wonderfully played in the RHODES version of Brazilian Anthem, and in [[INFERNO]] from [[AC DistorteD|IIDX DistorteD]].<br> | |||
This time, he also played the passionate Spanish phrases.<br> | |||
It's certainly enjoyable if you can play the guitar this much!<br> | |||
Please enjoy Kaziwara's passionate guitar in GuitarFreaks. | |||

I was requested for "a picture of a woman holding a sword named El Cid", and it turned out like this.<br> | |||
It has a exotic and mysterious sound, so did I try to make her as a sexy gypsy?<br> | |||
Using a realistic drawing style? Or an American comic style? Hmm~... well, everyone looks cute. And very cool. I can't draw this. <small>(help me!! master [[Goli Matsumoto|goli]]!! master [[Maya Takamura|maya]]!!)</small> | |||
For practice! I | For practice! I placed a "TokiM*mo" card beside it and tried to copy it, but I can't say it's the same character at all... the team members laughed at me and ended up putting it in a funny joke folder named "Gallery" (/_;) I tried to practice quite seriously, but~<br> | ||
When I see them next time, I'll try my best~ to draw a slightly cuter gyaru. | |||
