Song Production Information
Ryu☆
This is the first time since Mind Mapping that I have gone into the genre of ELECTRO TECH.
While I experimented some bass beats with the previous song, I focused more on the production this time around.
I decided to focus more on the EDM area for this song, stacking more synths together while adding more deeper synth melodies and arpeggio runs, adding more filters to make it more dramatic.
The tiny little chiptune added in the middle of the song expresses a sense of ruin, which I am proud of doing.
By the way, this song is an answer back to wac's arrangement of Narcissus At Oasis, entitled Narcissus At Oasis -Ekho At Ruin Mix-, although a bit more reserved.

Line 4 Ruin
I've listened to Ruin and I feel 300% better after the song.
Please play this song.
Video Production Information
alo
Although I first wanted to present the theme of a royal road with a line flowing from one end to another, I decided to finish this line with a different feel, and to twist it into my own.
I think, however, that I went a bit overboard and went ahead of myself in making this video...
While making this video, Minako Endo gave me the idea of putting in the figure in the chair for the last part of the video.
I was willing to ask for her help, and am thankful for her assistance.
