Kakuta a.k.a. L.E.D.
Q. "What is this track title, 'Denjin Jaeger'?"
A. "Oh, I don't want to talk about that too much. I don't want to give listeners a specific image of the track, like 'this song's image was made with this scene in mind, and I titled it ○○'. Isn't music a feeling after all, right? It's a feeling. Well, the vibe is also nice, right? It's a vibe. By the way, what does vibe mean?"
The truth
I give my own tracks titles according to my feelings at that time (I tend to do things that way in all aspects of my life), but when I made this track, for some reason, the thought, "I wanted to put the word 'Denjin' in the next track title for no particular reason", crossed my mind, with the result being "Denjin Jaeger no theme", but now I have regrets that I should've thought more carefully before deciding on a title.
Now, this track itself is a NU-NRG track containing elements of electric hardcore, and doesn't include elements from tokusatsu opening themes. Just in case.

Hmm, finally my track is being treated as a hidden song? It's nice to somehow have a sense of rarity (it's a delusion). However, no one noticed that it was hidden even after being unlocked (or even if they noticed, they didn't care), so these days, I feel a bit anxious about it remaining hidden forever.
Previously, when I added this track title, I wrote somewhere that I had regrets about adding the title "Denjin Jaeger no theme" without thinking or adding words I didn't understand, but as a result, VJ Yasi made a movie that was very interesting, so I decided to leave it as it is.

Yasi
When I hear "Denjin", aren't there many people who remember a certain tokusatsu TV hero as a conditioned reflex?
Even I, as a child at that time, was puzzled by the forced transformation from robot to motorcycle.
Huh? Don't you know it? Gah!
... Well anyways, all of L.E.D.'s new songs are my favorite, especially this one.
Perhaps there's a Best of L.E.D.?
But the song was the last I received among the new songs, right at the last minute before production was up....
Without seeing L.E.D.'s conflicted face when he saw the completed movie, it became one of the movies that "I'm sorry I did".

Hello, I'm Yasi, who's in charge of the home version.
By the way, the quality and volume of this 6thstyle movie is amazing~. L.E.D.'s songs included on the home versions, including this song, are good, but the cheapness of this movie I was in charge of became more obvious. (sweating)
It's been that way since 3rdstyle, the arcade staff warmly watched over us although we are the original producers, no matter how reckless we were with the home version, so I'm extremely grateful every time. Well, if you can look at it positively, the cheapness is part of its flavor, and it expands the world view of IIDX....
The title named by L.E.D. is very similar to its original source material in the first place, but it ended up making him regret it to death.... In many ways, "I'm sorry I did" this movie to everyone.
