== Music Comment ==
That popular Dance Maniax song appears in pop'n!
 
== Song Production Information ==
=== beatmania IIDX ===
==== TOMOSUKE ====
I like girls (laughs), so I tend to write songs which girls seem to like.<br>
For this song, I tried to accumulate the piano line in the intro, quality vocals, bossa-like rhythm and acoustic guitar, and French items that girls would like.<br>
It's so moody, isn't it?!<br>
"Mobo★Moga" is an abbreviation of "Modern Boy・Modern Girl", but this song title is directly taken from a delicious restaurant in Shibuya called Mobo Moga that I used to visit.
 
=== Dance Maniax ===
This cute French pop song starts with piano playing and light percussion. The whispery female vocals perfectly match the polished melody. This fashionable song sounds like it was from a one scene cut of a French movie. By the way, the title "Mobo・Moga" stands for "Modern Boy・Modern Girl". If anything, won't you decide to dance while wearing French-styled fashion?
 
=== pop'n music ===
==== TOMOSUKE ====
To commemorate its inclusion in four game series, it's about time to tell the truth.
 
There's a "~ballroom dance" on the third floor of an old building barely outside the town center, isn't there?<br>
When I was walking around town, for some reason I stared at middle-aged people dancing in grandiose outfits through the glass window, and they seemed to be moving at a high-speed.<br>
It's just like fast-forwarding a video.<br>
"This is it! This is the world!"<br>
While thinking this, I immediately started writing this song the next day.<br>
MOBO★MOGA is a ballroom dance song. The concept is a sped-up ballroom dance.<br>
I created this song while thinking about what middle-aged people are doing in that unique and narrow world. It's passionate. And strong.<br>
The orchestra was more heavy at first. It seemed to interact with the rhythms. It's so moody, isn't it?<br>
Unfortunately, when I added the vocals, it became fashionable... damn it! (laughs)<br>
But, I prefer fashionable girls like Toffee&Tart than middle-aged women, so that's great.
 
== CS Information Data ==
=== [[CS DDR EXTREME NA|DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME CS (North America)]] ===
"MOBO MOGA" by Orange Lounge is an enjoyable blend of bossa-styled sounds and vocals with drum'n'bass land lounge. "MOBO MOGA" is very fun to dance to and has timeless appeal with its very catchy melodies.
 
== Video Production Information ==
=== shiro ===
It was a very cute song, so I made a video using twin girls with a theme of a "POP LIFE-like playing house" (because two things that are symmetrical form a cute image).<br>
... However, during the latter half of production, I realized that the title meant "Modern Boy & Girl".... how disappointing.
 
== Character Information ==
These twin girls are 19 years old and type B. Tart (blonde hair) is a pâtissier, and Toffee (brown hair) is studying to become a web designer.
 
=== shiro ===
These characters are from a certain beatmania IIDX 5thstyle song. Their animations are also based on the IIDX original.<br>
These characters have also appeared in [[pot-pourri d'orange|a certain Gitadora]] [[AC GF7DM6|game]], and before I knew it, they were on four different games including IIDX. Wow.<br>
Best regards to the Orange Lounge festival, and please enjoy the other games too.
 
== Staff Comments ==
=== moroEX ===
This song is adorable, so I drew a picture of a large eye. (It's a bit scary though..) The song's sequences are relatively difficult! That gap is probably great.
 
It's fairy tale-like~! I wanted to make the movie like that. A toy airplane is spinning in the background of the Ferris wheel movie. Did you notice it? It's a movie with a spinning person's silhouette dancing. I've never done ballroom dancing, but I tried to create a dance with that image.
