I thought about the lyrics that TAKA said had a "dual personality" theme, while the orchestra was completed. I was surprised when I listened to the orchestra!

So, it's what I wanted to say, but something came to my mind, although it strangely didn't come at all (laughs).

Song Production Information
beatmania IIDX
TAKA
My seat is by the corner of the window in the development room, so I was called the "window seat guy", but there's a pop'n music cabinet next to it.
While listening to the music during the development of pop'n, I couldn't stop hearing an R&B rhythm in my head while thinking of a nice song to create.
From such inspiration, I received the sound source from the composer, Naya~n, and sampled "GLORIA".
I asked Noria, one of the Be For U members whom I had been talking to for some time, to participate in the vocals and rap.
Since she had no experience rapping, I was initially anxious about what would happen, but I think she did her best with her own interpretation, so I wonder if the strange mismatched feeling would conversely be able to produce a fresh quality.

Message from TAKA
Rather than being just a producer this time, I had a strong collaboration sense, so I asked Noria to collaborate in this song's production from the rather rough arrangement stage.
All the lyrics and rhymes were written by Noria herself. Even during studio work, we exchanged opinions about takes and harmonies on equal footing, and as a result, I think it showed her different charm than before. In that sense, I'd be happy if everyone accepts the music and video without preconceptions, not as "Noria Shiraishi of BeForU", but as the new artist "Noria".
Of course I didn't touch the movie, but I heard Noria also had an idea based on VJ SHIRO's concept, which played out brilliantly. It's a song I really like which combines the entertainment of music, visuals, and games. For more information about this song, I want to introduce it in the game's official site, so by all means, please look forward to it there.

Video Production Information
shiro
I received the song's image from dj TAKA, "dual personality image", and combined the two images of a dark Noria with a conscious personality, and a light Noria with an introverted, unconscious personality, which became a semi-story movie where she awakens and goes outside.
Thanks to Noria, VJ GYO, dj TAKA, and ReR for your help in filming.
Noria was a very lovely woman in the video.
There were other best shots, but I'm very sorry that I couldn't show them.
The light Noria is wearing a dress handmade by her.
She said, "I made it because I couldn't find a dress that matched the image".
Despite her delicate appearance, she was also tough and assertive.
