Song Production Information
This song is used as the title theme of beatmaniaIIDX. A cool freestyle rap leads you to the entrance of the dance music world of KONAMI's beatmania. The small number of sounds, characteristic of hip-hop, and the groove created by the bass is exactly the approach where you can feel the scent of the turntable and analog records in the club scene. After a sound contest between the sampled breakbeats and hit sounds, the groundbeat and distorted vocals captivate listeners with their overwhelming power.
Video Production Information
None.
