The day has finally arrived! We've been all waiting for this!! From the console version of GF4dm3 to the arcades!<br>
I have always wanted to port this song to the arcades. Every time we had a meeting to decide on a song, I would say, "I want to port this song!", only to be told "it's impossible due to adult circumstances", and I'd complain and complain. Well, the short story is that there was no data left.

One day, someone from a certain place told us, "we have that data!". I thought, "that's good!", but I had no idea at the time that this would be a gateway to hell.

A sports car racing across the coastline... I made this song with this image.

I tried to make the main melody as memorable and cool as possible without making it difficult to understand.
In instrumental songs (melodies without vocals), it's easy to get carried away with technique, but I tried not to do so.

In the interlude section, I did a little modulation. Here, I added changes to the tone and phrasing of the two guitarists, as if they were playing a solo exchange.
When you play it in the game, please try to battle with two people!

The day has finally arrived! We've been all waiting for this!! From the console version of GF4dm3 to the arcades!
I have always wanted to port this song to the arcades. Every time we had a meeting to decide on a song, I would say, "I want to port this song!", only to be told "it's impossible due to adult circumstances", and I'd complain and complain. Well, the short story is that there was no data left.

One day, someone from a certain place told us, "we have that data!". I thought, "that's good!", but I had no idea at the time that this would be a gateway to hell.

I looked inside and found CDs, DVDs, and more! I even found MOs and floppies, and for several days I was at a loss as to whether I should check all of them.
I was relieved when I managed to collect the necessary data based only on file names, but then I realized that there were a lot of files I had never seen before...
That's right. The data was created a long time ago, and since it was originally for console, the data creation process was completely different from the current commercial format.

From there, it was an endurance battle. I stared at the screen of the original console Gitadora game and said, "I see. I see... this XX is what we would call this XX now!" The steady work continued, as if I was putting a puzzle together one piece at a time.
Finally, it was time for the long awaited moment.
"Let's try to play it in the cabinet!"
I selected the song with excitement.

"An error has occurred!"

Damn!!!!!!!!!!!! I went home that day and cried until morning.
