Song Production Information

Do you know Astor Piazzolla?

The musical instrument featured here is the bandoneon, which is similar to the accordion, but are completely different instruments.
It was originally invented in the 1830's by a German named Heinrich Band, but since it requires extremely high skill to play, nowadays young musicians have completely stopped being taught it. To give you an idea of how difficult it is, imagine writing a book report on a stage, with the ghost of a typewriter in your arms.

Every person has regrets and irreversible memories, right? When dancing to tango, you crush them with every step you take. And when the song switches to four-beat jazz at the end, your heart should already become free.

It would be even better if you play it while holding a rose.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

I tried to place the abstract images from the sounds in the video.

I tried to limit the number of colors to keep the coordination consistent, so the moving patterns change greatly to follow the song's dramatic progression, but...

If the abstract patterns of the movie overlap well with the feelings and thoughts of the viewer, it will be addicting no matter how many times it's seen (addicting to the extent that critical thoughts disappear), which I think demonstrates a powerful effect, but is very difficult to create up to that extent.
Furthermore, the music should not be interpreted in a uniform direction, but it is ultimately difficult to create something that will be accepted by a large number of people.

And... I became anxious after I finished making everything, so I inserted TRAN just for the video to be a bit catchy...
She was intended to be a navigator for a mysterious world where you can unleash your five regrets, but...

If anyone read this far and fully enjoy the music and the song, I want to personally present you with a bouquet of roses.
