Can you feel the heat? (* repeat x2)
Song Connections / Remixes
- JIVE INTO THE NIGHT is a dance cover of the original 1988 italo disco hit Jive Into The Night by GREEN OLIVES.
- An extended, megamixed version of JIVE INTO THE NIGHT can be found on the beatmania IIDX 4th style Original Soundtracks album.
Trivia
- According to beatmania IIDX staff member ucchie, he, wac, and MTO were each in charge of doing the charts of the three DANCE EXPRESS Hi-speed licenses for 4th style: JIVE INTO THE NIGHT, FANTASY, and NEW YORK CITY BOY respectively. [1]
- JIVE INTO THE NIGHT's artist is mistakenly credited as GREEN OLIVES (the original song's artist) in beatmania IIDX 4th style. This was fixed in beatmania IIDX 5th style and in the console version of 4th style.
- JIVE INTO THE NIGHT is one of only two licenses in beatmania IIDX to be revived in the arcades, the other being FANTASY. Both were revived in beatmania IIDX 9th style.
- It is the only license, though, to be revived twice - it was revived again in beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD.
- It's also the only license to be in two beatmania IIDX CS games - 4th style CS and GOLD CS.
- JIVE INTO THE NIGHT was a hidden revival in beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD. It could be unlocked by obtaining approximately 2000-2500 DJ POINTS.
- It received a BEGINNER chart upon its revival.
- As of June 27th, 2007 (beat #FREE), it is playable by default.
Song Production Information
ucchie
I'm ucchie, who's in charge of adapting this song to the game.
Three songs were recorded from the DANCE EXPRESS Hi-speed licenses this time, with MTO and wac each being allocated one song to adapt in the game.
To tell you the truth, I wanted to work on Wac's assigned "FANTASY"... but aside from that, I first considered which interesting sections from the full-size song to include.
I excluded the hook and added many phrases unique for the 7 keys, so the song wouldn't sound monotonous.
In order to reproduce the sensation of the filtered opening, I programmed different tones of the same chord scale in the intro and the 8-bar synth part in the middle section of the song.
Although the difficulty is a little high, I think is a fun chart, so please do your best to clear it.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
The song opens with an energetic countdown of "1, 2, 3, 4", while the phrase "JIVE, JIVE, JIVE" is repeated in the chorus when the corresponding button is pressed with a "pop, pop, pop" sound. Among the DANCE EXPRESS Hi-Speed songs, this is one of the most energetic.
When I listen to this song, it reminds me of rookie programmer KANI playing, who has quickly surpassed the skills of VJ GYO, KAGE, and GOLI.
That's how I view the song... It's perhaps perfect for those who "can play very well".
Anyways, I will associate it as KANI's theme song for a long time.
