Song Production Information
Q'HEY
Unlike my usual techno songs played in clubs, I included a flashy progression in this song with the assumption of having action in the game.
That being said, it's probably pretty relaxed in comparison to my other recorded songs.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
"ON THE TUBE". It literally means "ON THE TV".
The most surprising thing about "ON THE TV" is "when you see the TV screen through a magnifying glass".
Around the time I was in the early grades of elementary school, I remember being extremely surprised that it only consisted of flashing lights when I enlarged it.
Since the popularity of PCs, it's quite well known that it's a mix of the three primary colors of light, Red/Green/Blue, but it's still strange.
I created this movie by finely gathering and assembling sounds by type.
From this shocking and strange comment stated above, I used the direct translation of "TUBE", "管", and likened it to a BNC display cable which individually transmits Red/Green/Blue signals, and furthermore included "Q" marks with respect to Q'HEY, who has always led the techno scene during the early days of hard techno, and is mainly active in Tokyo and overseas.
