Song Production Information

I made a song with a fast, high-paced tempo.
There are a few tricks in the song, such as the irregular music beat and the drum solo.

Video Production Information
VJ GYO

I made this video with such an image in mind.
Instead of focusing on something mechanical, distorted, or strained, I decided to focus on something more random.
