Song Production Information
dj TAKA
Right when I started making REINCARNATION, as I was fiddling with a variety of synths to find something unique, I discovered a sound that represented something like an "idol of the past", and I played around with this as if I were playing a song.
Incidentally, as the song's production advanced, I had deemed the sound unnecessary, but we had already entered the final stages.
After we added the vocals, the song gained a surprisingly different, soulful-like aura. Personally, I'm happy I was able to put this type of song into the game. Everyone, please play it often～.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
When dj TAKA started making a new song, he sometimes mentions the name of an idol from the 80's, saying the song is in a ○○ style.
It seems like he originally specialized in rock (when we went to do karaoke before this, he was especially familiar with visual kei rock bands, and was very good at singing), but I remember many examples of active rock group members being in charge of composing songs for idols at that time, and I would think, "Eh! This person?".
Is it actually your specialty, dj TAKA?
So, this song was certainly reminiscent of a certain idol at first, which was a bit sweet, but the sound's features had an endlessly clear image which made me think "oh!?", but in the end, it contained a strong, powerful, happy tune.
I felt a bit disappointed.
