Song Production Information

D.J.SWAN

It's been a long time since I created a IIDX song, so I was surprised when I did some research and checked each BBS before I entered the studio. The first few songs I created in 1999 are still around!
The video and score settings for Gentle Stress were especially great, and I was really happy to see many people still playing it.
From dj TAKA's request for "mysterious DRUM'N'BASS", D.J.SWAN has once again appeared here.

Both songs under the SWAN alias were created together with a drum'n'bass DJ, K (who wishes to remain anonymous), a friend whom I've worked with since 1995. If anything, the songs I've created were mainly his ideas.
Experts produce the best results. This time, we also changed our mindset to a dancefloor, and it's filled with sounds which seem fun to press. Does it feel good? I'd be happy if you're having fun.

A few days ago, I tried playing it after a long time! And I went to the arcade..... it was impossible! Was it this hard? Can everyone clear this?
Doesn't it feel bad? It didn't sound like the song at all, so I asked a nice guy nearby to play it for me...

Is it OK to ad-lib and press the 7KEY and START buttons, or not?

I suddenly remembered this, but it was TAKA who thought of the title "Gentle Stress", wasn't it? Am I wrong?

Video Production Information

MAYA

This was my first attempt to create a movie for a song.
Anyways, it's refreshing. And speedy.
Deeper, deeper, and even deeper.
It seemed like there were many fleeting and clear parts within the song's intensity.
While such parts are hidden within it... they now immediately and comfortably advance from a dark place to somewhere beautiful and clear.
I selfishly included "something secret" from the song title's image.

Personally... the notecharts feel unique~.
I was very happy when I continued to combo it.
