== Song Production Information ==
=== AKIRA YAMAOKA ===
I wonder if I thought of this sound when I was in London around April of 1981.<br>
I felt that only I could recreate the UK club sound from about December 1979 to March 1984.<br>
To say it boldly, this is a homage to the pioneers of "dance music" which I respect, and is the antithesis to the people who make others laugh.

== Video Production Information ==
=== GOLI ===
This is an illustration I drew at the end of 7th style.<br>
I somehow felt the depth of a woman's heart, so I drew her alone in her room with her head drooped. I tried to draw such atmosphere with importance.

Personally, I really like the middle to latter half of this song.<br>
I love listening to songs by YAMAOKA because they are very soothing.<br>
I occasionally listen to them when I need to get in the mood for work.

His songs for other console games are perhaps the best.<br>
I think he has a wide variety of genres.<br>
Perhaps he's establishing a new frontier (laughs).

beatmania IIDX difficulty rated 1 to 7+ from 7th through 9th style, 1 to 8 in 10th style, 1 to 8+ in IIDX RED, and from 1 to 12 from HAPPY SKY onwards.
