Actually, about a year and a half ago, there were several places that weren't very fond of eurobeat music. That is, until [[BRILLIANT 2U]] appeared...<br>
Actually, until about a year and a half ago, there was something I disliked about Eurobeat songs.<br>
Despite the euro tone of this work, it has a very thick essence of club music, and it gives off a flashy yet passive, techno-like impression.<br>
Well, until I listened to his [[BRILLIANT 2U]]....<br>
Due to the collaboration with the dance compilation, the IIDX series has a broad range of euro sounds. Its influence is very big, don't you think?<br>
Despite the Euro style of his work, it has a very thick essence of club music, and provides an impression like flashy and passive techno.<br>
Today, my good brother NAOKI would like to give a comment.
It can be said that his big influence has allowed the IIDX series to also expand the Euro sound, including tie-ups with dance compilations.<br>
Today, NAOKI gave us his comments.<br>
Everyone, please spend a wonderful end of the century with this song.

As a IIDX fan, my dream came true.<br>
This time, with respect to dj TAKA, I have arranged for three of my songs to appear in IIDX 3rd style and to top it off, a NAOKI-themed course is also being prepared.<br>
I have been asked by dj TAKA, whom I respect very much, to include three of my upper songs in IIDX 3rd style, and even a NAOKI course was prepared.<br>
A hidden song with a "fin de siècle" vibe, END OF THE CENTURY is now publicly available. I would like for everyone to play it and let the adrenaline of this track burst through them!<br>
A hidden song with an end of the century VIBE, it seems END OF THE CENTURY has also been released, so I would like for everyone to play it by all means and burst with adrenaline!

It's an exciting hyper song appropriate for the end of the century, created as a result of borrowing the power of the great Beethoven's music and fusing it with modern musical culture. It's a suitable song for the end of the year, so by all means, I want you to play this song then.

When I knew that NAOKI would provide us with three Eurobeat-styled dance music tracks including DYNAMITE RAVE, [[CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE]], and this END OF THE CENTURY, I remember every team member feeling confident (and almost too excited) by the success of 3rd style.
 
As mentioned in dj TAKA's above comment, other team members also had some biases for their personal music genre preferences, so the push to include Eurobeat was previously weak.<br>
However, since BRILLIANT 2U was included in [[AC substream|substream]], I was infatuated with the overwhelming, bright, energetic and powerful speed contained in Eurobeat, and furthermore, seeing its popularity with players at the location test, it became a very important genre for song selection during the 3rd style production.
 
I, for one, have become a "Eurobeat" fan, putting other genres aside in my personal preferences.<br>
Production was difficult in various ways, but I'm grateful that I managed to somehow run with NAOKI's music, and the gift of energy released from the "Eurobeat" sound.
