Song Production Information

D/A

Because DJ Yoshitaka ordered me to make a song with "increased BPM", I decided to make a song based on an amazing image I had seen earlier.

Skyscrapers are a major symbol of the future in the cyberpunk subgenre of SF, so I wanted to mix several genres of music in the song to represent this, such as drum'n bass and new rave.

You can just imagine ascending on an elevator and seeing the glory of New York.

Video Production Information
