It's groovy hiphop. Hiphop may perhaps be the hardest songs in the beatmania of old. I tried to make the scratches actually sound like scratches in this song, so everyone should try to freestyle the scratches and make it sound really cool! There are lots of hidden samples assigned to the keys in this song that aren't used in the gameplay. I hope you'll all find them.

We filmed this movie on a Saturday at the height of summer in August. dj TAKA and the DAY BREAKERS (VJ GYO + [[Goli Matsumoto|GOLI]]) became memories of that one summer in 1999. (The kind of memories that come with an illustrated diary.) We just kind of started playing around, just dancing in front of the camera, and all of a sudden a wonderful cameraman appeared! His name should be familiar to the pop'n music fans: [[Ryo Komatsu|RYO]]! Eventually, he completely took over the role of filming supervisor for this video. (Thank you so much for that.) Along the way, even [[Reo Nagumo|dj nagureo]] and [[Tomoko Shiono|KAERU]] (the CG designer for beatmania 5thMIX) came along to help, and with everyone's help we were able to turn out a groovy, if somewhat weird, video. That night, while the three of us were saying it would be great to spend every day like that, that happiest day came to an end. Incidentally, our director [[KAGE]] happened to be on vacation that day. (Well, it was supposed to be a holiday, but ... ) Too bad, maybe he would have gotten in on the fun when he got to work.

Song Production Information

dj TAKA

It's a song made from the idea of nice, groovy HIP HOP.
It's probably the most difficult HIP HOP song in the beatmania series.
In this song, I tried to assign scratch sounds so they can be actually used as scratches, so everyone please arrange the song to be even cooler with cool ad-lib scratch while playing!
Also, there are lots of hidden sounds assigned to the keys in this song that aren't used in the gameplay. Try and find them~.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

We filmed this movie on a Saturday at the height of summer in August.
For dj TAKA and the DAY BREAKERS (VJ GYO+GOLI), this was a memory of that one summer in 1999 (the kind of memories that could be written in a picture diary).
It started rather unplanned, and we were just dancing around, taking turns with the camera, but then someone ran over and offered to take over as the cameraman!
His name is RYO, who is familiar to pop'n music fans!
Eventually, he was in charge of the whole shoot as the de-facto supervisor (thank you very much).
Halfway through filming, dj nagureo and KAERU (beatmania 5thMIX -Time to get down- CG designer) also ran in to support us, and thanks to everyone, we successfully completed it in a groovy, weird upper state of excitement.
That night, the three of us said, "I wish I could spend every day like this", and the greatest, happiest day was over.
By the way, our director KAGE happened to be on vacation that day. (Well, it was supposed to be a holiday, but...)
When I went back to work, I was supposed to work as hard as I could, I'm sorry.
