Song Production Information

DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX Official Website

NAOKI

A sense of being on a dead and, resentful, helplessness... This song was produced by looking at the pessimistic side of human beings. I think this is why I was able to create a unique dark song with an unpleasant rhythm trap. Especially for those who want to let out their daily frustrations, please have a DANCE CRAZE with this song.
