Mr. good-cool is probably the most talented among the artists participating in IIDX, who traces the history of disco and brings dance music of various genres back to life in a new form.<br>
good-cool is considered to be the most versatile artist among those participating in the IIDX series, who has revived various forms of dance music in new ways, following the history of disco music.<br>
However, the song that accompanied his first appearance on the 2nd style show was a happy tune with a bursting beat and a glittering melody that had never been heard before in the beatmania sound.<br>
However, one of the songs which marked his first appearance in 2nd style was a quick, cheerful, and happy tune, whose beat was bursting with an extremely glittering melody, which had never been seen in the beatmania sound until then.<br>
That's Hitch Hiker.<br>
That song is Hitch Hiker.<br>
The 2nd style song is one of the better house numbers in the IIDX series of all time. It was a version of house, but Hitch Hiker was also a version of Warp House, a cutting-edge sound at the time. I can vividly recall the time when I was part of it, and the time when I played a part in making it so excited.... I'm not going to tell the story about it, I'm back! That song!<br>
2nd style was a version which particularly contained high-quality house numbers throughout the IIDX series, and Hitch Hiker was labeled WARP HOUSE, a cutting-edge sound back then, so I was very excited that I was involved in its brilliant revival... so it's not just a memory, it returned! That song!<br>
It's name is Hitch Hiker2.<br>
It's titled Hitch Hiker2.<br>
It would be the first time in the history of beatmania that a song is named "2" and treated as a sequel, just like in a movie.

And then... just say... apparently, this time, it's like you're hitching a ride in a more awesome car. I'll stop now (the view in the window looks a lot different depending on the car, doesn't it?)
And then... let's just say it looks like hitching in a more amazing car this time (the scenery reflected outside the window of the car has considerably changed, right?).


By all means, choose Hitch Hiker on the stage before you play Hitch Hiker2. Stay and enjoy the long drive (though you have to clear it... LIGHT7 can be DRIVIN SAFELY! I'm sure).
