Song Production Information
OutPhase
The meaning of "OutPhase" is "opposite phase", as it displays maximum power when the cycles coincide. It becomes about cooperation rather than individual emphasis.
It's a scale which can't be expressed as a single scene from a game where songs last less than two minutes.
When two opposing forces synchronize with each other, self-control isn't guaranteed to be preserved when energy is present.
We brought a revolution to IIDX, and are now surpassing beatmania as OutPhase.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
The super special unit "OutPhase", who everyone was waiting for, arrived at the right time.
One of OutPhase's musical roots is considered to be German trance, which peaked in popularity in 1992~1993.
Inheriting that gene, the song "sync" was born after evolving into its most ideal form, without being affected by reckless management of the passage of time.
Inside a laboratory called "OutPhase", the two composers engaged in production activities and continued their collaborative research each day and night without sleep to give birth to the evolutionary life form "sync", and the image of these two passionate young genius researchers still left a strong impression on me.
Difficulty & Notecounts
beatmania IIDX difficulty rated 1 to 7+ from 5th through 9th style, 1 to 8 in 10th style, 1 to 8+ in IIDX RED, and from 1 to 12 from HAPPY SKY onwards.
REFLEC BEAT to groovin'!! Upper difficulty rated from 1 to 10+, 1 to 13 in VOLZZA/VOLZZA 2, and 1 to 15 in 悠久のリフレシア. (Ratings and notecounts obtained from BEMANIWiki 2nd.)
