This is a minimal techno song with basic rhythms and a metallic touch. The crowded atmosphere created from completely removing the melody, provides listeners with a feeling of ecstasy. The repeated patterns from the opening suddenly changes its tone in the middle section, immediately raising the tension. Sounds that consume the mind are so addictive, that once you become addicted to them, it's unavoidable.

Song Production Information

beatmania IIDX

dj TAKA

This is the most techno-styled techno song throughout the history of the beatmania series.
The undulations of the synth sounds in this song are said to be unique to his live performances.
Actually, when TaQ was stuck on an idea while arranging VOLTAGE, he asked me "how does this sound?" while playing it on a synthesizer, and that sound eventually changed and appeared in DXY!.
On the other hand, TaQ suggested to me "how about this hi-hat for this song?", which I used it in another song, so such mini collaborations seem to occur every day among close musicians.
The origin of this song title was originally a parody of an onomatopoeia used in our inner-circle.
"Hey! TaQ! Do you want to go there!!" It's a mystery if he tried to use it.

Dance Maniax

This is a minimal techno song with regular rhythms and a metallic touch. The crowded atmosphere created from completely removing the melody, provides listeners with a feeling of ecstasy. The repeated patterns from the opening suddenly changes its tone in the middle section, immediately raising the tension. Sounds that consume the mind are so addictive, that once you become addicted to them, they're unavoidable.

Video Production Information

NEW-3

This is an extremely cool song, and I was impatient but excited by it.
I wanted to express its groove, texture, and development as comfortably as possible, so I integrated them with a common color.
Also, although this was my first time using live-action materials, this video also taught me how interesting it was.

Off-topic, but when I later asked the composer TaQ to explain the meaning of "DXY!", he replied that it was "a substitute word for a greeting", but when I heard this song, I created the video with an image of a "killing machine" from beginning to end. Sorry (laughs).

"It became a habit for me to shape my fingers like Fleming's law. It still won't untangle itself."

"I discovered a significant bug at the last minute, and the 174 hour all-nighter fix was hell."

"There were many ideas coming in, that it was difficult to gather them in one form."

"Just by listening 30 minutes every day, my English somehow improved. It feels like a dream."

"I went through a daze in 90 days."

"It was difficult, but I now feel like I've achieved something."

From their tireless efforts, the biggest project this century has safely been completed.

Sorry. I'm just kidding.
