Song Production Information
good-cool
This song contains soulful vocals by a fascinating diva, JP Miles.
Although the genre is "HIP HOP", I tried to create this song with an emphasis on its melody, rather than going on an underground direction.
This song's selling point is the scratching, somehow!!
If you can get overcome the triple rhythms, you might be one step closer to becoming a real DJ.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
Rather than an ○○ award winning song, I listened to it while feeling an upper-ground R&B song with HIP-HOP elements, but when you try to play it during the game... you'll need extremely super scratching techniques, just like a real DJ battle.
It's exactly an endless scratching battle!
So for this movie, I tried to capture the duality of the song, and based on visuals conscious of upper-ground R&B, I tried to give it a rough and noisy effect, which looks like it's filled with scratches.
When the song title is sang in the lyrics, I moved the female character around with the right timing to make the movie eye-catching.
I really wanted to make a live-action video, but various circumstances led to a CG character being used as usual...
