On a certain day, at a certain place in Roppongi, I overheard an argument between HES and TAKA as they were drinking. Overwhelmed by excitement for the games the two produced, and by HES' cool graphics, the two made their way to their seats at a party. And TAKA, who was drunk, kept getting excited over and over.<br>
On a certain day, at a certain place in Roppongi, I overheard an argument between HES and TAKA as they were drinking. Overwhelmed by excitement for the games the two produced, and by HES' cool graphics, the two made their way to their seats at a party. And TAKA, who was drunk, kept getting excited over and over.<beart. I was inspired by his boundless energy for life, and sought to express it with wildy guitars and synths and my 909. The descendant of those fleeting sonatas, styled in the fashions of today ... that is RESONATE 1794. Crossing epochs and generations, this is my my own message of love to all of BEMANI's fans.  
TAKA "Huh! Isn't this amazing fun! I'm really looking forward to it!"<br>
KOHTA "Y-yeah, it really is fun ... " *wow, what pressure*<br>
Just what you'd expect from the famous producer, TAKA. And, as it happened, it also managed to get me really excited about the next game too, since I love working under pressure.
 
On that day, I set forth to make a song that wasn't dance music or BGM but Bemani, just for myself. My travels led me to cross space and time to the year AD 1794. This is the year that a series of sonatas were started by a great composer that many consider seminal. At length I realized that these beautiful, yet tempestuous, sounds had begun to resonate deep within my heart. I was inspired by his boundless energy for life, and sought to express it with wildy guitars and synths and my 909. The descendant of those fleeting sonatas, styled in the fashions of today ... that is RESONATE 1794. Crossing epochs and generations, this is my my own message of love to all of Bemani's fans.
