Song Production Information
Ryu
Ryu here.
Actually, I made this song back when I was in high school, so it's a pretty old song.
So I had to remake it for this IIDX song contest. What do you think about it?
It's a Happy song, so it's easy to get used to, but the BPM is 182 which is... too fast... I think I'll play it in LIGHT7 mode myself. Hehe.
Finally, I would like to thank dj TAKA, Ucchie, and all the staff members for their hard work in this project, and for listening to my unreasonable and selfish requests.
It was a very good experience. Thank you very much.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
Thanks to your support, this song has been a big hit after the release of IIDX 4th. It's composed by Ryu, a university student from Fukuoka.
It's a cheerful, dazzling, pleasant song which directly matches dj TAKA's thoughts on the word "HAPPY", which is the direction of 4th style.
I think it was right around the time of IIDX 4th when Ryu was approached to work on the game version of his song.
The entire team was in a desperate situation, and I also didn't have time to decide what to do with the movie, so I just started to add ideas like an association game: starmine→repeated fireworks→yukata→uchiwa→bon odori...
And then...
Footage of fireworks?→materials recorded from the previous year (I'm sad it was from last year). What about the bon odori?→live-action wasn't ready on time (I'm hesitant to make it with the staff)→CG→an easily moveable character→TRAN... That's the background sequence of events.
And then...
We were in such a hurry that it ended being quite rushed, and I couldn't capture the song's splendor... There are many things about this process which I regret.
Moreover, I ended the theory that TRAN was only in trance songs, which changed from her previously serious mood to having fun (She's expressionless but somehow looks like this... I think). I'm relieved that fans seem to receive her dancing very favorably.
