Lyrics

Incredible beats
Welcome back
Speed rave

C'mon!
Put It Up!
Go! Go! Go! Go! (Yeah! Yeah!)

C'mon!
Put It Up!
Go! Go! Go! Go!
Let's go!

Use your flow
All we need
The energy
And I got the key
It keeps me

Make a heart
Sailin' too far
To the unit
We're gonna do it
Takin' it far
(Go! Go! Go! Go!)
The crowd
Yo! Keepin' it raw!

I feel
Big deal
Go MC's
Keep it real
Best friend
Too stressed to pull it
Under arrest
Top-notchin'
State killa
Run a audience
Then
Don't, run
Run with the ghetto
Play
It's not funny
Stay healthy
Young kids is coming
Measure up
Stay, together

Tatsh
That's me
Get a feel
Feel how MCs heat the room
Better be real
Seek the devil, whatever
Under arrest
Hardcore
Stay together
Under arrest
Bitch
Rollin' with the money
Runnin' with the ghetto
Playin'
It's not funny
Stay colored
Step foot when I comin'
Break up
Take it!

(Yeah.. Uh! C'mon!)
Say Speed Rave!
Speed Rave!
Bring it back!
Bring it back!
Bring it back!
(Go go go go go go! Let's go!)
(Go go go go go go! Let's go!)

Say Speed Rave!
Speed Rave!
Bring it back!
Bring it back!
Bring it back!
(Go go go go go go! Let's go!)
(Go go go go go go! Let's go!)

Yeah!
Jump!
Higher!
Yeah!
(Go go go go go go! Let's go!)

Song Production Information

Naoki Maeda

The genre of SPEED RAVE has been almost forgotten, with a faint heartbeat, until the next generation of composers shocked and revived it....
SPEED RAVE itself hasn't been used much, but Tatsh was talented enough to make a song based off this genre, and I finished the song based on my memories of previous songs.
Named RED ZONE, it feels like an authentic speed rave song, conjuring the feeling of high tension and the thrill of racing a car.
After listening to this song, you may feel that you want to race on the highway!
But remember, speeding is bad. (Laughs)

Tatsh

Yes, I've been caught speeding before.

I love the speed rave genre.
Here, we both collaborated together to produce a song based off this.

To research, I went to different arcades, listening to old speed rave songs.
My experiences there with the speed rave genre made me feel that the music was more based on speed with aspects of rave mixed in.
And so I made the track based off that.

I want you to make an awesome groove, by all means!
I've heard this line somewhere before.
