 With all that background, there were a lot of particular struggles, but thanks to help from CIVA, who did sequence support for the chart, it ended up being satisfactory.<br>
 Thank you, CIVA.

+I created this groovy, one-shot, happy tune by changing the scene with undulations without adding modulations.<br>
+It feels as if it's somehow gradually changing.<br>
+I created this song in a style which was very difficult to implement in "button pressing games" such as beatmania and pop'n, and I've been asked to crossover this song to the IIDX series since 6th, which I continuously refused....<br>
+During that time, I probably had strong personal beliefs and obsessions about it.
+The reason why I finally included it in this game is actually because VJ YUZ liked this song very much when it was initially released, and personally created a movie for it, completely unrelated with work.<br>
+He told me that it was possible to refine that movie to include in 9th, if only this time, and I unintentionally gave him the OK!!<br>
+This movie is cool.
+=== Dance Maniax ===
+dj TAKA has created many famous numbers throughout the history of the BEMANI series. "Quickening", his first appearance in DMX, is a trance song with undulating sounds which clash with each other. The combination of sampled voices, electronic sounds, and mechanical drum rhythms, invites the listener into an unreal space. The impressive last part fades out at once, as if the tuning had malfunctioned.

+I heard this song a long time ago and it moved my heart, so I secretly made a movie of it which is able to see the light of day now.
