Song Production Information
L.E.D.-G
When I created this track, I asked our sound staff listen to it to get reactions and feedback from other staff members, and one of them told me their reaction was that the song "erected" him.
This is exactly the kind of reaction I expected, and I'd be extremely happy if every user who plays this track can also be "erect".
To those who don't know the meaning of "erect", please search for it yourself if possible, and don't ask your father and mother.
Video Production Information
Yasi
L.E.D. finally appears in this video! My direction made him appear as a very scary person, but L.E.D. himself is a very shy person who deeply loves techno music and is serious about it.
