A sports car racing across the coastline... I made this song with this image.

I tried to make the main melody as memorable and cool as possible without making it difficult to understand.
In instrumental songs (melodies without vocals), it's easy to get carried away with technique, but I tried not to do so.

In the interlude section, I did a little modulation. Here, I added changes to the tone and phrasing of the two guitarists, as if they were playing a solo exchange.
When you play it in the game, please try to battle with two people!

TAG

The day has finally arrived! We've been all waiting for this!! From the console version of GF4dm3 to the arcades!
I have always wanted to port this song to the arcades. Every time we had a meeting to decide on a song, I would say, "I want to port this song!", only to be told "it's impossible due to adult circumstances", and I'd complain and complain. Well, the short story is that there was no data left.

But then!

One day, someone from a certain place told us, "we have that data!". I thought, "that's good!", but I had no idea at the time that this would be a gateway to hell.

A few days later, I found a large cardboard box on my seat... a Pandora's box filled with data of all the previous console Gitadora games.
I looked inside and found CDs, DVDs, and more! I even found MOs and floppies, and for several days I was at a loss as to whether I should check all of them.
I was relieved when I managed to collect the necessary data based only on file names, but then I realized that there were a lot of files I had never seen before...
That's right. The data was created a long time ago, and since it was originally for console, the data creation process was completely different from the current commercial format.

From there, it was an endurance battle. I stared at the screen of the original console Gitadora game and said, "I see. I see... this XX is what we would call this XX now!" The steady work continued, as if I was putting a puzzle together one piece at a time.
Finally, it was time for the long awaited moment.
"Let's try to play it in the cabinet!"
I selected the song with excitement.

"An error has occurred!"

Damn!!!!!!!!!!!! I went home that day and cried until morning.
I told myself, "Oh no, I can't give up now. I have to do it. There's no turning back now, XYZ". Tried again and again, only to be crushed.

Long story short, I finally completed the project. When the sound came out of the chassis properly, my legs were shaking.
This song is filled with everyone's thoughts and feelings. I hope you will play it.
Just kidding.

It wasn't fun to just port it over, so the charts have been slightly rearranged for the modern version. Just a little...
For those who say "Come on! I wanted to play this part of that difficulty level as it was!", I'm sorry!

Now please take your time and enjoy it!
(I thought my comment was light-hearted, but it turned out to be a huge one... but that's how much I feel about this song.)

Video Production Information

pam

This time, the atmosphere of this song is very resort-like, and I was troubled by the fact that it's a song for summer.
This is because it was winter when I made this video.

However, with the help of unexpected friends, I was able to capture summer-like images even in winter.

Although it was not used much in the video, I went to Thailand for my graduation trip and created the video after experiencing the feeling of everlasting summer, so I hope it reflects that somewhat.
