One day, [[Toshiyuki Kakuta|L.E.D.]] asked me "do you want to collaborate with Camellia?", and I immediately answered "YES!".<br>
Since Camellia and I had been talking about making a song together beforehand, this was right on time, and thanks to L.E.D. our goal was achieved.<br>
The order this time was to make a song with a rainy season motif, so we made a lot of clear, rain-like sounds in addition to aggressive sounds.<br>
The opening bell sound is one of favorites, which was created using the polyphony modulation function of the Prophet5.<br>
I also incorporated an alternating and complex Wobble on the first half, while the solo of the second half was made like a fight of two locations, and it ended being a song that can be enjoyed both in game and on its own as well.<br>
Please give this song a try. Thank you.
 
=== Camellia ===
This time I had the please to collaborate with Expander, a.k.a. my senior Sota Fujimori.<br>
I thought about collaborating with Sota, who recommended me to [[beatnation Records|beatnation RHYZE]], since when I collaborated with [[Naoyuki Sato|Nekomata]], [[Akhuta]], [[Shigeharu Saeki|S-C-U]], [[Daisuke Kurosawa|96]], and Sota in "[[Cleopatrysm]]", so I'm really, really happy that it has come true!
 
I first made a rough draft and sent it to Sota, who sent it back to me, then I was impressed by the maniac creation of the melody and the fine sequence of his signature sounds!<br>
Especially the solo in the latter half is Sota as its finest, and when I thought about the back-and-forth phrase... I took my hat off to him.
 
Regarding the song, we had to work with the theme of "rainy season" of Season Line, also the "Asian cyber" theme troubled me, so an oriental techdance was created by trial and error.<br>
Sota's vivid sound matched well, creating an atmosphere of an electronic Hydrangea blooming in an oriental cyber space!<br>
This was a very pleasant collaboration that taught me a lot, and while we just finally finished it, I'd like to collaborate again with him.
 
I'll be glad if you can survive this song during the rainy season!<br>
Camellia out.

Although I'm not very comfortable with the moist feeling of the rainy season, I like the sound of rain and the darker clouds, so it would be nice if I could express the atmosphere of those clouds, right? What is it, ribbit.<br>
The charts have a quite high difficulty, ribbit. Blow away the rainy season with sweaty scratching! Achoa!!
 
 
Character name: Tsuyuta<br>
A self-styled fighter who enjoys fighting games.<br>
When it begins to rain, he starts to squat reflexively. He goes to his knees about 10 times.<br>
His favorite foods are soba and inari. The rumor on the neighborhood is that he makes his own soba.
