Song Production Information
Mr.T
This is the second song in the electroshock series, continuing from the previous ZERO-ONE.
This time, the tension before barely completing an upload was fully condensed into a thrilling song.
Originally, these kinds of music really used the synthesizer's built-in arpeggiator, but in my case, I completely programmed the beta version in MIDI. The sound was better. (lie) I don't really understand how to use it.
Since these parts are generally assigned as keysounds, the game becomes kind of a human arpeggiator, right?
※arpeggiator: a function that automatically performs arpeggios.
CS Information Data
DDRMAX2 -DanceDanceRevolution-
You have unlocked the song "xenon" by Mr.T. Invisible like the air, "xenon" is a special element that can create intense light without a lot of energy. Difficult to extract and rare in the atmosphere, the song "xenon" is much like the gas - intense but minimal, one of a kind and hidden in its own atmosphere. Be sure to breathe deeply while playing.
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
It was the end of summer this year.
As the festival reaches the end, all of the IIDX staff saw the final fireworks display together.
The brilliantly colored sparks rained before our eyes, flickering at a high speed.
The extra large fireworks were rather dangerous electrical devices.
Its name is "xenon".
