Following up on [[Sakura|桜]] comes this new tune from Reven-G. I was taken in by the charm of traditional Japanese music while I stayed in Japan. But as I went on my journey around the world once again, this time I went with the bagpipe for my newest song, which is a traditional musical instrument of Europe. The very low BPM speed complements the traditional type of Reven-G music one often associates it with, with a digital beat intertwining the song. To tell you the truth, while the music is often called traditional folk music, it has become one of the cornerstones of present-day music. I secretly used this opportunity for you to receive a musical lesson, courtesy of Reven-G.
Following [[Sakura]], this is Reven-G's latest song. I was taken in by the charm of traditional Japanese music for a while as I stayed in Japan, but as I traveled around the world once again, this song is fully loaded with Reven-G taste, and mainly uses the bagpipes, a traditional musical instrument of Europe, combined with a digital beat & tricky super-low BPM.<br>
Actually, traditional music, called ethnic music, has become one of the foundations of modern pop music, which I found out by chance once again, but Reven-G's sound secretly conveys such message.

RevenG stayed in Japan for a long time, producing a mixture of sounds with the latest technology under the theme of traditional Japanese music, but now he has left for Europe. The musical instrument he found there is the bagpipe, which is referenced in the song title. Through trial-and-error, the completed song and chart idea were born from the voices of users.

A country's name can sometimes be identified from a single landscape photo.<br>
Untranslated.
Maybe it's obvious if there's a close-up shot of a building or natural item that symbolizes the country, but it's also somehow possible to identify from the relationship between each image, such as photos of people's clothing, tools, and machines.
 
For example, in the situation you're recreating a partial (or entire) amusement park somewhere in a country, I think it's essential to have broad and deep knowledge of the elements that form the culture of that country, and accurately recreate them in your work without gaps.
 
I feel that Reven-G's sound production, including this song, has a similar stance.

I created this picture after RevenG explained the image and background process of the song's production. It seems the song title "bag" doesn't only mean bagpipe!?

The characters which appear in the movie were also created from the basis of RevenG's image. They appeared in 2D during the location test, but I attempted to make them transform into 3D. I tried to use the image of a certain adventure animation "Tom ○ya", through focusing on the style of walking. I made it in the style of an old-fashioned skit using a set of papier-mâché horses and people. Did anyone notice it?
