Song Production Information

This is your standard UK underground garage that they consistently play at major clubs and events in London lately.
Recently, it's been called names like 2-step. It felt good to cry out, and I'm confident that this song will be popular in the beatmania series.
positive MA
This is the definitive version of UK underground garage!!
The music is good! The song is good! The cries are good!!
I just love Mark's skillful arrangement, his young sense, and his sad guitar echoes!!!
Video Production Information
Chihiro
I combined animations with elements close to the current beatmania series with ones that have a new feel to them.
I think it's an interesting composition, and has things you can sense directly with your eyes and things you can sense from within.
