Song Production Information

L.E.D.

As usual, PSYCHEDELIC TRANCE has been hot nowadays, but how are you all going?
While it's good that music is universal and doesn't change throughout any era, I think that it always continues to evolve, and even songs in the same genre include fluid factors which evolves into something different a few years later. I think PSYCHEDELIC TRANCE has changed form many times and reached its current form since I first listened to it, but even from myself, PSYCHEDELIC TRANCE interpretations vary over time. This time, I made IXION as my latest interpretation of PSYCHEDELIC TRANCE.
And perhaps for my next track, my interpretation of PSYCHEDELIC TRANCE will end up in another different form.

Video Production Information

Ta‑k (synesthesia)

I created this video with the image of "restarting the setting sun", which has the opposite nuance of this song title's meaning.
As for its composition and image, isn't it probably similar to "NEBULA GRASPER", which I was in charge of in the previous game?
This time, I tried to add a few organic elements in mechanical objects, without using any wireframes.
I think this turned out to be interesting, but what do you think?
