The rumored 80's styled techno sound!

When I finished this song, I had extreme trouble deciding its genre. I felt that something simply couldn't be labeled as "techno". Maybe it's because I experienced the late '70s to early '80s era in real time, which is said to be the dawn of techno. This song begins with a catchy first verse, which features a nostalgic vocoder sound placed between aggressive analog synth timbres with vigorous filters, then has a flowing pre-chorus, and finally a beautiful, oriental chorus, completed with a wonderful development and an extremely stateless style. In the actual game, the spatial stereo sound added to each of the SE, makes the song sound extremely great, and you can feel the artist's obsession.
