The title "ABSOLUTE" means "definitely" or "perfectly unmatched". As title suggests, this number is filled with positivity and brightness. The refrain phrases used in the beginning and ending sections are so impressive, that you won't forget once you hear them. The vibrant synths give you happiness. The middle section suddenly becomes melodious, and its balance with the main phrase is exquisite. This song demonstrates dj TAKA's skill, who also composed "[[Quickening]]". | |||

I | I became addicted to dj TAKA's songs, so I tried to create a movie for the first time.<br> | ||
Drawing materials, | Drawing animation materials, adding effects, and editing. It was fun.<br> | ||
I | I wasn't familiar with this process, so I learned various things under VJ YUZ's guidance, and it somehow ended like this by repeatedly using VJ YUZ's techniques.<br> | ||
However, it took me longer than I expected, and I | However, it took me longer than I expected, and I worked on this song while ignoring the system screens (other than movies such as SELECT and gameplay screens) I was originally in charge of.<br> | ||
That's why I had to | That's why I had to make up for time towards the end... | ||
Personally, dj TAKA's recent songs, all have sounds I like, so I quite like them.<br> | |||
dj TAKA's songs are high quality for games, and somehow remain in your mind just by listening to them.<br> | |||
And he uses various distinct sounds, which results in his skill of creating the eventual song.<br> | |||
Every time he does this, it provides me with a brand-new challenge. | |||
The songs in famous trance CDs (which I mostly borrow from VJ YUZ) are certainly wonderful, and I often listen to them, but when I hear dj TAKA's arrangements and songs, there's something different about them.<br> | |||
I've only participated in creating button-pressing animations and materials for movies until now.<br> | |||
That was also my initial plan, but this phrase "ABSOLUTE" remained in my mind, and I wanted to try and create a movie for dj TAKA's song from scratch.<br> | |||
So I unreasonably requested VJ GYO to let me do it. | |||
I felt a brand-new sensation.<br> | |||
If I somehow have another opportunity, I want to challenge myself to create a different type of movie. | |||
