That IIDX masterpiece is revived in pop'n. You can't get enough of the combination of trancey sounds with sweet vocals!!!
 
=== pop'n music 14 FEVER! onwards ===
The "color" surrounding me is a sad blue that dissolves into the sky. The transparent vocals color the worldview, so to speak, it's trance!

If you are familiar with the [[Naoki Maeda|NM]]-produced dance pop song [[HIGHER (NM feat. SUNNY)|HIGHER]], CHIYOKO, who is also known as Sunny, is featured on this trance track. It's titled "Colors", which is the theme of 6th style, but I actually had the color blue in mind when I created it. The two synths I often use to create trance music are both a beautiful blue color, and this track is an extension of that image.

It is strange to say it myself, but perhaps the songs I make contain a blue image, don't they? It's not a deep blue, but a pale blue, like floating in the sky....

YUZ, who created the movie without any special meetings, has a good understanding of my musicality, and caused me to cry a little when I saw this movie once production finished. I hope you will enjoy it as complex art combined with visuals...... that was self-praised.

Since players can't view the center of the screen and appreciate it while playing moderately dense notecharts, I thought about various ways to make it so they could enjoy the alternating colors and feel the large moving links.
