What kind of year was 2001 for you?
Did you play KEYBOARDMANIA 3rd MIX??
That's why "Midori no kaze" is included in pop'n!!!

The request from the director when creating this song was to make it "technically easy and musically good".
He said that it was a difficult task

Simple is best
Great is great
E=mc2

It'd be great if it continues to resound in everyone's hearts throughout time.

P.S. Q-Mex beautifully played the piano in the soundtrack.

I can't get enough of its fantastic atmosphere which feels like a fusion of nature and culture, like a blockbuster anime film or a long RPG.
Even with HI-SPEEDx6.0 is a bit slow, but it's also fun.

The wind was blowing

When it comes to series form quite a long time ago, there tends to be people losing sight of reasons to crossover, but this time, there was a nice reason for its color attributes, so I'm glad that all the good old masterpieces came to pop'n!

(the mustache man refers to the right side of Ucchies), oh, I see, I need to be careful about the generation gap when commenting in the future, but I wonder what kind of impression this generation's crossovers have on such young team members.

My memories of Midori no kaze? OK, let's talk about it.
Looking back seven years ago, I was involved in creating pop'n 6.
6 was the first time licensed covers were included in the pop'n series. Naya~n was in charge of the orchestration of all the included licensed covers.
Back then, he recorded the live strings of the licensed covers at the same time as Midori no kaze. This song was performed when I first saw the recording of the live strings. During the climaxing chorus, dozens of strings moved in unison. An emotional live performance of the oboe, which was my admired musical instrument back in junior high school. I remember only getting goosebumps from the beginning.
This time, I crossed over this song from the conclusion that we need a healing environment in times like this. Its difficulty level isn't that high, so by all means, please try playing it without using the HI-SPEED modifier at least once.
