Music Comment

pop'n music 9→13 カーニバル

A fiendish goa trance that makes the brain roar, strongly assaults pop'n from GFdm!!

pop'n music 14 FEVER! onwards

A sound parasite that enters through the ear and implantates in the brain. Take it down before it brainwashes you!

Song Production Information

beatmania

TOMOSUKE

This song was my music game debut, so I have all sorts of memories.
Even though I originally composed it for drummania, it sounded nothing like a band.
I remember my pillow being soaked night after night with dejection over the song's sound and mechanical sequences being disliked.
Then, when I listed to the song again, I noticed that the sounds were rather dull.
Thus, when editing the song for this game, I tweaked it so that it came out sounding somewhat reborn.
Remixing it was rather fun, since I haven't made this kind of song recently.

beatmania IIDX

L.E.D.

GOA TRANCE marks TOMOSUKE's memorable music game debut. In terms of GoaTra, although it feels a bit nostalgic when I listen to it now, the uplifting sensation towards the second half is expected of TOMOSUKE, right?
I've really loved this song since when I was in charge of the drummania home version, and this song matches DJT's concept extremely well, so I asked TOMOSUKE to also include it in CS DJT.

Furthermore, the CS DJT version of IMPLANTATION is based on the updated sound source from drummania 2nd, which was first included in beatmania THE FINAL.

TOMOSUKE

This is an irregular goa trance techno. I was inspired to write this song simply because I'm a four-beat (boom-tss-boom-tss) maniac. However, it'd be boring if I had to do that from beginning to end, so I added a bit of digi-rock in the first half. That's why when many of you first played it, you probably thought "is this a sequel to HYPNOTICA?". The theme of the snare pattern in this song's middle section is "man's war against machine".
