Trivia
- This song has different backgrounds, banners, jackets, or other related images. For more information, please see this page.
- In the DanceDanceRevolution series, bag's BPM is intentionally set at 65 (half of what it is supposed to be). This results in the notes of the song being very cluttered and difficult to read.
- bag's halved BPM, along with the hard to time chart due to DanceDanceRevolution's old engine which didn't have proper 12th/24th/48th notes, were probably the reasons as to why bag's EXPERT charts were rated Level 10 (on the 1-10 scale). bag's charts were fixed in DanceDanceRevolution X, with proper note quantizations.
- However, bag's old, unfixed EXPERT charts were added again as CHALLENGE charts in DanceDanceRevolution X2. These are unlockable by reaching ENJOY LEVEL 120.
- As of February 23rd, 2011, these charts have been unlocked for normal play.
- However, bag's old, unfixed EXPERT charts were added again as CHALLENGE charts in DanceDanceRevolution X2. These are unlockable by reaching ENJOY LEVEL 120.
- bag's halved BPM, along with the hard to time chart due to DanceDanceRevolution's old engine which didn't have proper 12th/24th/48th notes, were probably the reasons as to why bag's EXPERT charts were rated Level 10 (on the 1-10 scale). bag's charts were fixed in DanceDanceRevolution X, with proper note quantizations.
- bag received a Double BEGINNER chart in DanceDanceRevolution ULTRAMIX3.
- In the beatmania IIDX series, bag's artist is shown as Reven-G.
- After being removed in beatmania IIDX 15 DJ TROOPERS, bag was revived in the Lincle Kingdom unlock system in beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle, obtainable upon reaching Level 16.
- It received brand-new ANOTHER charts upon its revival.
- bag appears as downloadable content for DanceDanceRevolution S+, in the DDR EXTREME Pack 4.
- In DanceDanceRevolution (2013), bag received a unique video on July 30th, 2013, based on its background animations from DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME. This video is played full-screen and eliminates any on-screen dancers.

Song Production Information
beatmania IIDX
Reven-G
Following Sakura, this is Reven-G's latest song. I was taken in by the charm of traditional Japanese music for a while as I stayed in Japan, but as I traveled around the world once again, this song is fully loaded with Reven-G taste, and mainly uses the bagpipes, a traditional musical instrument of Europe, combined with a digital beat & tricky super-low BPM.
Actually, traditional music, called ethnic music, has become one of the foundations of modern pop music, which I found out by chance once again, but Reven-G's sound secretly conveys such message.
DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME Original Soundtrack
Untranslated.
DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME Weekly Journal
NAOKI MAEDA
RevenG stayed in Japan for a long time, producing a mixture of sounds with the latest technology under the theme of traditional Japanese music, but now he has left for Europe. The musical instrument he found there is the bagpipe, which is referenced in the song title. Through trial-and-error, the completed song and chart idea were born from the voices of users.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
A country's name can sometimes be identified from a single landscape photo.
Maybe it's obvious if there's a close-up shot of a building or natural item that symbolizes the country, but it's also somehow possible to identify from the relationship between each image, such as photos of people's clothing, tools, and machines.
For example, in the situation you're recreating a partial (or entire) amusement park somewhere in a country, I think it's essential to have broad and deep knowledge of the elements that form the culture of that country, and accurately recreate them in your work without gaps.
I feel that Reven-G's sound production, including this song, has a similar stance.
Staff Comments

I made this picture after RevenG explained the image and background process of the song's production. It seems the song title "bag" doesn't only mean bagpipes!?
The characters which appear in the movie were also created based on RevenG's image. They appeared in 2D during the location test, but I tried to make them 3D later. I tried to made them walk in a way that reminded me of a certain adventure cartoon named "Tom ○○○yer". I made it in the style of an old-fashioned skit using a set of papier-mâché horses and people. Did anyone notice it?
