~The basis of a techno DJ are the analog synth and sampler~<br> | |||
~Unfortunately, today the drum machine is in a bad condition~<br> | |||
~You have to push the button yourself~<br> | |||
~Just don't forget the other sounds~ | |||
At that time, I was a high school student.<br> | |||
While going to the club, I bought a dance compilation CD, and everyday the Roland MC-303 synthesizer was my partner at writing and composing. | |||
One day, suddenly, the -DJ simulation game- "beatmania" appeared.<br> | |||
Many speakers with shining neonlights, and a dancing graffiti character.<br> | |||
I was a fan of 4-beat tracks and I was a little scared of this street-like cabinet, but I entered 200 yen regardless.<br> | |||
The CLUB SAGAWA manager jumped in and recruited me as a DJ to excite our customers. | |||
Unlike other games, this box made full use of the 5-button sampler and the turntable.<br> | |||
Following the song sequence, sometimes ad lib and not matching with the song itself, you had to manipulate this groovy machine.<br> | |||
The excitement of the customers is expressed by the groove gauge, clearing was shown by the passing line.<br> | |||
The guarantee was $1000.00 per song at maximum. | |||
As for the songs that could be chosen, although there were few, the Kraftwerk-inspired techno track, -TECHNO- "OVERDOSE / MIRAK" was there.<br> | |||
This song progresses with the vocoder sound, and a Roland TR-606/808-like pattern of kick, snare, and hi-hat, so for beatmania beginners, they learned how to play and it was perfect for getting the nice feeling of playing the sequence with their own hands. | |||
This amazingly simple game system presented in beatmania, and a high school student who likes dance tracks like O/D.<br> | |||
Since O/D, the future has changed.<br> | |||
That high school student provided [[starmine|music]] to beatmania [[AC 4th style|three years later]].<br> | |||
And 20 years later, that high school student was making -TECHNO- music to beatmania. | |||
Congratulations for the 20th anniversary of OVERDOSER. | |||
And | |||
Congratulations for the 20th anniversary of beatmania. | |||
With twenty years worth of love. | |||
