Lyrics

don't be shy
make 'em scream
make 'em scream
'cause you don't know

don't be shy
make a difference
make 'em scream
make 'em scream
I'm just watching

in heaven with you
I guess you know
you know it's true

Song Production Information

L.E.D.

Hey, L.E.D. here.

When I first produced THE DOOR INTO RAINBOW, the subtitle and theme for IIDX 18 had not been determined.

In contrast with the previous style, SIRIUS, however, I wanted to have the theme and songs have more of a bright color to them, but I only had a vague idea of what it would be like. I talked with dj TAKA about what direction to take the series, whether we should have more of a HANDZ UP type theme for the series, and whether my opinion would suit it.

After some thinking, I thought "why couldn't we set it up at a fictional resort?". And so, it was chosen.
With a resort theme, I felt that it would allow the other musicians to compose a great variety of songs that would tie into the basic concept of a resort and of light while letting them express their own musical tastes.

This track is the song I produced that ties into this image.

pam

Because the theme of this style was a party resort feeling, I made this movie with the feel of a late night party with the sun about to come up.

The reality was that it took two people to make this late at night with a lot of tension between them.
I really want to go out to play this.

Ta-k

I was asked to participate making a movie again in a collaboration. I was glad to do this.
This time, we produced a movie that reflected the theme of a club and a party atmosphere.

I put in a lot of effort to balance these two ideas, but I might have pushed it modestly.
In addition, pam put up some ideas of having the movie interact with the player's actions, but I wanted to focus on making great images that one could focus on ... what do you think?
