Song Production Information
good-cool
dj TAKA "There's a song I'd really like you to make, but..."
good-cool "What kind of song?"
dj TAKA "Well~ what... Huh?... I forgot..."
good-cool "You forgot?!"
dj TAKA "OK! Well, I got it, here it is~♪"
good-cool "What, come on!"
~A few days later~
dj TAKA "Did you finish the song I was talking about the other day?"
good-cool "... But you didn't say anything?"
dj TAKA "No~, the song I wanted you to make, I remembered it~"
good-cool "Wh, what song?"
dj TAKA "After all, I need you to play heavy guitar"
good-cool "I see! It's warp house, isn't it~?"
dj TAKA "OK! Well, here it is~♪"
good-cool "What, really!"
It's becoming obvious that I used to be a rock guitarist, so "Buffalo" was born from the order to provide a rock song featuring heavy guitar sounds.
I requested Hideo Suwa as the vocalist, well-known for his work in MELO CORE from pop'n.
good-cool "Suwacchi, can you sing a song in IIDX this time?"
Hideo Suwa "Oh! You hit a lot of buttons, right~? There are various colors, so there are various buttons~!"
good-cool "That's a different game, but..."
Showing off his high tension style as usual, he demonstrated his rather sharp feelings through his lyrics and singing.
Moreover, during the recording day, he changed into a T-shirt with a picture of a buffalo in the vocal booth. No~, he wore it. By the way, the notechart arrangement is also pretty cool as well. Buffalo~~~!!
Video Production Information
YUZ
I forcibly gave me a DV camera to NEW-3, who was in charge of the previous DXY movie, and requested for late night footage. It's a memorable work when he was seemingly questioned by a police officer during filming (I'm sorry).
It was fun to make analog and noisy video edits, while removing all CG elements.
I personally like it, but what do you think....?
I think GOLI's illustrations are cool.
