Song Production Information
beatmania IIDX
Megumi Oka ('Megumi upper-slope' Kumichou)
This song started from the phrases "I want to sing these~ kinds~ of songs~", "I want to dance~", and "Mirrorball~!!←perfect for the DISCO generation (sweats;)", and the KONAMI Studio sound creator Tsucchini often selfishly said he created a "loveable fighting spirit song". Thank you for the lovely song! Also, a long-time close friend RYO performed the chorus (who's also active as a tour member for artists such as Eikichi Yazawa and Toko Furuchi), and the dancer 'MICO' groovily danced in this IIDX movie (who's also active as a choreographer for DANCE☆MAN and MINMI, and as a backup dancer for artists such as Misia), and fur, fur, furthermore! 'Togo-chef', who has helped me since "Hunting For you" from the original beatmania series, appeared as a friend in this movie (but only briefly (laughs)).
What should I do with this lineup! I'm really happy... thanks to the KONAMI staff and my close friends, I'm still inexperienced, but I was able to achieve what I wanted (congratulations).
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you!
There's no exaggeration that I was born and raised in Tokyo, but is Mother Nature in me?
"LOVE BOX" was born from the image of "THE TOKYO". I also took part in the costumes, womens' hair and makeup, and staging. Sorry for the silly lyrics. Please forgive that atmosphere. Also, I'm grateful to TERA and TAKA for creating this Tokyo-like video.
I look forward to your continued support of UPPER-SLOPE. See☆You
"UPPER-SLOPE" is...
An expression describing an ocean area inhabited by fish such as tropical fish. It means an upper-slope, such as shoals. I named it from the concept that colorful fish freely gather and swim in shoals which are filled with sunlight. If you're a musician, you can freely enter and exit♪
Tsucchini
Hello & nice to meet you.
From this unexpected situation that my own song is included in this IIDX series, I'd like to first warmly and passionately thank all the artists, staff, and players who have impatiently supported IIDX!
This is a 90's J-PopSoul song which feels nostalgic now. I had an image of that moment when acoustic 16beat was slightly shining with brilliance in Japan.
The word "trance" is now established as a genre, but the simple groove created by each drum, bass, and guitar cutting back then, sent audiences in a somewhat different trance than recent techno/dance and band music.

How's everyone doing?
This time, Tsucchini created this song while saying many nonsense phrases such as "well, the guitar is kuwachaka-styled... (he continued for a while, so I'll omit it)"♪ Thankfully, I really love it, yes (I'm happy), I can't get enough of how he somberly plays the keyboard~ (I'm satisfied), although it's a hidden song... ha~...
