Song Production Information

D.J. Spugna

This time, I made this song by playing around with a newly-purchased analog filter.
Until now, I've always done the same thing with the way I influence a song's dynamics with the number of sounds and phrases, so wow, I was surprised.
I got this sort of dynamics with my first try with the filter. I got a little obsessed now.
Next time I want to try it on vocals.

Video Production Information

shiro

It was my first experience filming the dance and not vaguely filming one person, so it was very enjoyable to film.
The dancer was a friendly man who suddenly had poor health, but danced bravely regardless.
In previous IIDX dance movies, dancers seemed to ad-lib their dances, but choreography is also included in the song this time.
