Song Production Information
beatmania IIDX
dj TAKA
I replaced the sampler which was mainly responsible for my track production during the development of 5th, so Abyss is the final song I created using it during the past two years.
Appropriately for this final song, many sounds were created with this sampler, from the rhythm parts to the human voices, piano, and strings. Although I didn't have many samples or memory, my technique involved choosing to arrange one part, and quickly convert them to waveforms.
DanceDanceRevolution
Untranslated.
CS Information Data
DDRMAX -DanceDanceRevolution-
You have unlocked the song "Abyss" by dj. TAKA. This song will take you on a journey through atmospheric melodies and driving house beats.
Video Production Information
VJ YUZ
I created this video as a favor to dj TAKA for providing a song (Frozen Ray) in KM3rd.
I generally say this, but I just wanted to create a clip for a TAKA song...
And that clip honestly shows the image of this song without walking alone!
I thought about various things while creating this video, so it was very difficult.
I even listened to Abyss while sleeping in order to expand its image..

I consciously drew these underwater aliens from the movie with the same title.
It feels like that title certainly meant endless hell, abyss, or outer space, but I didn't want to just draw that, so I tried to include aliens.
