Here is TaQ's latest production, the hard techno song Holic. By the way, a lot of people have been asking, "How do you pronounce TaQ?" The correct answer is "Taku". In German, Q is pronounced like "ku". TaQ spent his childhood years in Germany, and it looks like "TaQ" is a favorite nickname he picked up there. I think there are a lot of people who think TaQ's works have a certain German techno feel to them, including Holic; this may be why.

The catch copy for 3rd style is "CYBERbeatNATION"; it seems the songs that express this particular world view the best are probably dj TAKA's [[LEADING CYBER]] and this song, "Holic" from TaQ. If I had to say why, it's because they're songs that give you a very dark feeling with faltering or becoming depressing; they're both song that are overflowing with a violent energy that seems to suck you in.
dj TAKA's "[[LEADING CYBER]]" and TaQ's "Holic", are two songs which perfectly express the worldview of 3rd style's catchphrase "CYBER beat NATION" in the most straightforward way.<br>
If anything, they're songs with dark tones, and are filled with power, like being consumed by intense force, without sinking or stagnating.

Song Production Information

beatmania IIDX

dj TAKA

This is TaQ's Holic, a.k.a "HARD TECHNO", his latest techno song.
By the way, I received questions asking "how do you pronounce TaQ?", so the correct answer is "Taku".
Q is pronounced "ku" in German, right? TaQ spent his childhood years in Germany, and it seems it's his favorite nickname he's used since then.
I think many people also felt that TaQ's songs, including Holic, have a certain German atmosphere, so perhaps it's from that background.
