FIFTH GIG

The beginning and the ending of this theme was made a long time ago, based on the opening song I made for GUITARFREAKS 5thMIX.
Truth is, I kinda wanted to release this music to play in the game for a long time,
so I'm very glad that I was able to make it into reality this time.
And what's more, this time, as a new experiment, there are different versions for this song that features guitar, bass, and drum,
so you can enjoy a complete solo performance.
Since there is a rather long drum solo here, I thought it would be best to have a real drummer play that part,
so I decided to ask an old musician friend, drummer Takashi Yasuda, to perform.

Dokadoka!! Doka-tan! Tokaaaa~~n! Da Da Da Dan!! Ja~~an!!
Oh~~! Did those live drums feel so~ goささき (talk)od!
The sound is so lively~~! The power is different~~! It's so cool~~!
I couldn't help but smile in the recording studio.

By the way, if you play this song in a session, another version of this song, FIFTH GIG TYPE II, will appear.
Let's play, everyone!
