Song Production Information

lapix

When L.E.D. first approached me, he said "the theme of the next IIDX is ninjas"

"Ninjas!?" I have some familiarity with ninjas, so this fired me up. lapix here.


This time, I made this song with a "mirage" theme.
I incorporated a lot of colorful sounds on top of a dazzling HiTECH FULLON base.

The tension in this song gradually increases! I hope you can get the ninja feeling~!
Please play it!


HiTECH.

Video Production Information

I'm once again in charge of the movie of a lapix song, following on from the previous one!
The main character is a plump ninja who wants to be a cool-looking ninja.
At first, I wanted to do a HiTECH ninja, but what is a HiTECH ninja anyways? A cybernetic looking one?
I tried cyberizing ninja techniques, but I felt the limits of expression, like "I don't know what's going on", so I ended up with a super analog ninja.

Some nights I wondered where would be a demand for such a fluffy princess, but I had a lot of fun working on it!
