Song Production Information

Risk Junk

Around the time that Resort Anthem was announced, I had a vague idea of what song I would make that would fit into the theme of the game.
But passing by a room that was playing a certain melody, I was struck with an idea for the song.

Using the recording function of my cell phone, I hummed the tune for my idea!
Next, when I had to choose a genre for the song, I didn't want to choose one that would restrict the way I could make the song, but rather, one that would help me guide me as I made this song.

With the advances in computers these days, it is easier now more than ever to make a good song at a relatively low price.
In the future, the only way to make a name for one self is to have a distinguishing sound, and I want to focus on a sound that no one else is doing.

Video Production Information

This song makes me feel like I am at the sea, no matter where I am!
When I first listened to it, the first thing that came to mind was a familiar sight, swimming at the sea and observing the husle and bustle at the beach...while on vacation.

With summer approaching, I can imagine myself going to the CD music shop on the corner, and seeing the cover image for this CD.

At the hot summer beach, with the cool sea nearby...what an uplifting image!
