Song Production Information

Here's a House song from Hiroshi Watanabe, a Regular Staff Member for beatmania. Truth is, this track was recorded in New York, about the same time as 3rdMIX. There's bound to be people from shows, location tests etc. who've heard it before. We prefer playing through its high-impact opening phrases at the maximum volume.

From the introduction, in which a flood of various sounds overlap like a flood over the beat ticked by the light rhythm machine TR909, this song builds into a quick backing syncopation of the organ. In contrast to the deliberate chaos of the female samples in the chorus, the repeated sampling of the word "Free" and the speedy groove cause the listener to question the word "Free" in its whole.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

As the name "House Music" implies, you don't usually listen to it outdoors. And obviously when you dance to House Music, you do it indoors as well - on the dance floor. But MiZKiNG and I, thinking this was too ordinary, asked our dancer Nishi for a huge favor: to do an improvised dance out in the streets. Despite making discontent faces and reluctant complaints, like "The bike's in the shot!", he danced vigorously for us in the unusually hot weather.
When it was all over, I remember him laughing and being happy about the experience.
