Song Production Information

Osamu Kubota

There was a certain keyboard player in the 1980s.
With his waist-length hair flowing freely, he would skillfully control up to five keyboards, and was famous for freely switching between complicated 7/8 and 19/16 rhythms.
However, he had one weakness. He couldn't play simple 4/4 rhythms!
Whenever someone suggested he start playing a simple 4/4 tune, his hands get stuck, he would not be able to breathe, and he'd claim, "4/4 music is dying".
He continued to reject the existence of all dance music.
Time passed, and now he has perfected the ultimate in 4-beat play.
No matter how close you listen to it, it's a 4-beat rhythm that sounds like an odd time signature. That is this song.
Along with the meaning(?) of this word, foreplay has the double meaning of being the ultimate 4/4 play song.

It's a one minute twenty second ode to my beloved, the piano, practically without rest once it begins.
What do you think? This is the return of presto.

I created this animation.
The scenery I used was from the neighborhood of shio and my parents' home, so it's a "secretly local special resource!".. I was so excited to make this animation..
