I had trouble approaching and creating a song with an "80's" sound concept, deciding on materials, and balancing it. I thought the sound would be too different if it was all 80's, so the key point was to find what extent to blend current sounds with an 80's taste.

K-MASERA

I'm k-masera, who's participating here for the first time.

I had trouble approaching and creating a song with an "80's" sound concept, deciding on its materials, and balancing it. I thought the sound would be too different from the current sound if it was all 80's, so the key point was to find what extent to blend current sounds with an 80's taste.

As a result, it was completed as a melodious and stylish dance track that I'm proud of.

"EURO" doesn't refer to the so-called dance category, but rather to the geography of the early '80s, where new wave and new romanticism (an outdated word (laughs)) bloomed.
The word "romance" means a short lyric song, which includes nostalgia towards outdated words. The main beat creates the song's core with modern tones, while decorated with '80s synth techniques such as pads, melody, and effects. Particularly during the drum fill-in patterns and the sequence in the second half, don't you think many people were "satisfied" with it...!?(^-^)

A regret I have this time is not including a vocoder in the song.
In terms of sound, this time, I chose a French female voice, but if I'm able to participate in IIDX in the future, I'd like to create a song which fully uses the most important item in mainstream techno, the vocoder.

I'd be happy if you enjoy playing this song, which is filled with various melancholy and nostalgia.

One more thing after the keywords "French", "'80s", and "sexy".
"It feels like a rejuvenated Clé○○ntine!" ※Clé○○ntine is a real singer.
This video resulted in the image of a rejuvenated Clé○○ntine in my own style.

The more I listen to this song, the phrases become gentler in my ears, more nostalgic, and irresistible.
