Song Production Information
beatmania IIDX
dj nagureo
m-flo's new song was the last one to be recorded and edited for beatmania IIDX. The song opens with the impact of the riff coupled with Lisa's melody. The comfortable riff from the intro, the operation of the sampler, the ad-libbing and various other things, it's all very interesting, don't you agree? I think many people will be reminded of u gotta groove after listening to this song.
DanceDanceRevolution
The transnational hip-hop unit m-flo, consisting of composer taku, Boston-based Korean rapper verbal, and half-Colombian vocalist lisa, has lately gained popularity. This groovy hip-hop track from vol.1 produced by taku, is accompanied by lisa's clear voice, which adds depth to the song, and verbal's rap which overlaps the Japanese-English boundaries, allows m-flo's groove sound to be fully appreciated.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
As a tie-up artist, m-flo has provided us with not only the song but also the original video clip.
However, we decided to edit and produce the video clip for this song before the original video clip was made, so we decided to edit and produce the video from the video sources that we have received in the past and put it on beatmania IIDX for everyone.
In the course of video production, we had a few instances when a video created for a different purpose somehow blended in with the song and seemed to fit! So this time, I consciously tried not to match the flow and development of the song in order to recreate it in the cut editing.
And yet, for some reason, there is one cut that fits perfectly. Can you tell...?
