Song Production Information

Games in the IIDX series were created in a half-year cycle until 8th, so I often reminisce on my work in a half-year period, but among them, the first-half of 2000 (April~September) was an extremely fulfilling and deeply impressive period for me.
It was from around that time when I received offers for my music to be included in other series, such as pop'n and DANCE MANIAX, and the nine stage songs that I created, such as ABSOLUTE and Quickening, were created in an extremely fulfilling state, but from these songs, the song I created in the tightest schedule was "e-motion ~ROMANTIC STYLE~", a remix from CORE REMIX.
Immediately after IIDX was released, I'm certain that I created this song's game data in 2~3 days, and felt a sense of accomplishment and reasonable satisfaction when I created it during that time, but in my case, there are many times where I lose my objectivity when I create songs within a short time period.
The more I listened to this song afterwards, the rough parts became noticeable, it wasn't "satisfactory" at all, and I completed it with a regretful result, which is also a really miserable story, so I aimed to someday recreate this song once again.
When it was time to put effort in deciding on a song to remix for 9th, I immediately chose "e-motion". I've said it again, but I wanted to do it no matter what~.
This means confronting my past self.... that's on the opposite side of the mirror (that's enough), so since I started creating this song first among my other songs this time, I had enough time to create it around fall, and I was able to create a track that I was personally satisfied with.
It says 2003 in the title, but this story is why the song was actually created in 2002.
This song's genre is still trance. The temporary trance boom has subsided like other club-styled genres, but it feels like something for people who only really like it. This genre has personally had the most influence on me during the last few years, and what was nice yesterday would be something uncool today, so it's a style I want to cherish from now on.

So, how do I want to completely amplify and convey this?
