Song Production Information
dj TAKA
This is a song by DR.BOMBAY, also known as the "mysterious Indian".
The strong synth riffs in the intro and the funny sound effects in the middle convinced me that it was definitely interesting to include it in beatmania.
The difficulty level is quite high, but I'm sure good things will come in the dawn when it's cleared...
PS: I meant that you can go to the "Extra Stage", but the expression may have been a bit misleading.
If you were expecting something else, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
I think many people were overwhelmed by the impact, power, and fun radiating from this movie.
DR.BOMBAY becomes a hunter and chases after a ferocious tiger (tiger-man?) in this video, but since we had to cut it down to a game sized version, we weren't sure how it would turn out.
If you see it on TV on a music channel, please check it out.
By the way, if you listen carefully to the lyrics, you'll see how they relate to the movie (and it's even more fun!).
