Song Production Information

Kozo Nakamura

I was in the process of thinking about creating my 18th guitar phrase, and this is the one I came up with.
The guitar phrase that follows the break in the latter half of the song is one of my favorite phrases because it feels so good to play.
I thought it would be better to make it into a song, so I finished it all at once, but it turned out to be quite a difficult song for the guitar, and after recording it, the fingers on my left hand...ouch!
It took about two days for my fingers to heal, but I am amazed at how I was able to finish it so well.
Also, the drums are interesting and the clip is cool, so please try playing it.

Video Production Information

Takemaro

The request was to make a cool, ladylike female detective (without moe?)
It's a cool song, so the goal was to make a clip worthy of it, and it's a runaway explosion spinning out of control!?
A deadly battle with a group of strange people in gas masks, and even the appearance of a robot...
