Song Production Information
NAOKI
Long before the DDR series was created, I imagined songs like this while I walked down the street in my very soul. Before production on DDR was done, I thought at a time a sense of inlayed puzzles. Eight years ago, I found it very refreshing to hear numbers such as this in my old style and the pressure felt by the production of a HYPER-EUROBEAT number. Songs like CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE incorporate euro music into the beat in our system, but as time goes by and music transforms, arrangements have been made of these kind of songs to follow music trends.
Video Production Information
None.
