As someone who likes rock and programmed music, this song falls right in the middle for me. It's not well known, but I actually somehow like these kinds of music. I'm sure I can hear insults like "there's no DistorteD here", but please accept that I wanted to make this song at that moment back then. | |||
What I was definitely able to enjoy doing the most in this song is collaborating with musicians. After creating the orchestra base, I recorded the brass, guitar, and vocals in that order, and whenever various people are involved, that person's color, temperature, and soul are instilled in the music, making it feel more lively. Noria, who was present during the entire recording, seemed to feel it as well, and I think we were able to record a lively song with tension and vigor. | |||
With that feeling, this song was filled with a human groove by the many live performers.<br> | |||
By all means, please play it while shaking your body. | |||
=== Noria === | |||
It's been a while, hello!<br> | |||
This time, I participated in a solo song after a [[BABY LOVE|long time]], and of course, it was with dj TAKA. | |||
It was delivered to everyone as early as the location test, and now, it's finally available across Japan!!!<br> | |||
How was it? Was everyone able to play it?? | |||
And somehow, I received many requests by fan mail<br> | |||
Thanks to your support, I was able to "appear in this movie"♪♪♪ | |||
Thankfully, everything went smoothly, from the song to Noria's inclusion in the movie, and since I wanted to appear by all means, this song made me really happy.<br> | |||
And this time, I was also able to write the lyrics, but I somehow realized once again that lyrics are important, and I discussed about the "image" of TAKA's sound, so I wonder if it contains a bit of such feelings~??? That's what I thought about. | |||
This movie was created by [[Gyo Eguchi|GYO]], who takes care of me every time, and by the person who made movies such as [[KI-SE-KI (IIDX RED EDIT)|KI・SE・KI]] and [[I am]]. | |||
On the day we filmed this video, the sky was really beautiful without a single cloud, and I was moved by the deep blue sky which appeared many times.<br> | |||
By all means, please also look at that. | |||
Although it was a relatively warm day, Noria, whose sensitive to the cold, was cold since the early morning, and had wrinkles between her eyebrows 【was it around the first verse? (laughs)】<br> | |||
Conversely, the sun was so bright that I couldn't keep my eyes open 【was it around the chorus? (laughs)】 | |||
Even though I'm not a model, I thought it was difficult~ for models to be in locations for magazines, regardless of seasons, but since we were filming on location, I was able to do many things and had a really lovely day!<br> | |||
I'm really looking forward to its completion, and above all, since it's a solo song, it'd be great if was released with a Noria-like atmosphere. | |||
I can't really watch this video myself, so everyone please play it.<br> | |||
But it's embarrassing, so please don't get angry if I grin and look from behind.<br> | |||
Please forgive my suspiciousness. | |||
You can even listen to Melody Life as a ringtone, so I'm sorry for troubling you, but please also support it there. | |||
Thank you very much to TAKA and all the 2DX staff for everything.<br> | |||
And thank you very much to the players playing across Japan for your support.<br> | |||
I'm really grateful that Noria can sing these kinds of songs, since everyone is playing them.<br> | |||
Noria will also do her best to get a slightly better score with her own songs (laughs). | |||
I'm really happy to sing again. Thank you very much!!! | |||
Please surely find your Melody somewhere, and play it. | |||

Song Production Information
Taka
As someone who likes rock and programmed music, this song falls right in the middle for me. It's not well known, but I actually somehow like these kinds of music. I'm sure I can hear insults like "there's no DistorteD here", but please accept that I wanted to make this song at that moment back then.
What I was definitely able to enjoy doing the most in this song is collaborating with musicians. After creating the orchestra base, I recorded the brass, guitar, and vocals in that order, and whenever various people are involved, that person's color, temperature, and soul are instilled in the music, making it feel more lively. Noria, who was present during the entire recording, seemed to feel it as well, and I think we were able to record a lively song with tension and vigor.
With that feeling, this song was filled with a human groove by the many live performers.
By all means, please play it while shaking your body.
Noria
It's been a while, hello!
This time, I participated in a solo song after a long time, and of course, it was with dj TAKA.

This movie was created by GYO, who takes care of me every time, and by the person who made movies such as KI・SE・KI and I am.
On the day we filmed this video, the sky was really beautiful without a single cloud, and I was moved by the deep blue sky which appeared many times.
By all means, please also look at that.

Video Production Information
yagi-denko
I connected the image born from the sound with Noria's image & lyrics, thought "well, I only have this", and ran straight with a sprinting feeling.
I can't deny the feeling that I'm too direct, but after all, this video only suits this sound! And I was able to make it with my original intention.
I tried to aim for a standard video using blue connotations, forceful techniques, and Noria's enormous expressive power as weapons.
I'm thankful to GOLI and GYO for their help during filming.

beatmania IIDX difficulty rated from 1 to 12.
