On the outskirts of a winter sky region called "Canis Minor village", as the harvesting season finished, many villagers from here and there enjoyed various songs and music with stories such as a heroic prince with a bow, a brother and sister who got lost in a witch's forest, a rumor about a pillow with a snot bubble, and a legendary female knight who fought alone, and they sang and performed for daily fun, competing for scores and combos.

Congratulations!
Synth-main fusion seems popular in good old video game sounds, but actually, this is the most popular direction in instrumental songs.
No matter what era, it felt like everyone likes it after all.
Even during the first screening, this song stood out among several songs in this direction with its solid musical quality, and I could feel the story and worldview not only from the title, but from the song itself.
I think both characters and music are essential elements in pop'n music, right?
When you play this song, I hope you'll experience the story and world woven by Flying Kite.

PON

From the moment I heard it, I felt that the phrase "pop'n from the past" was perfect for this song.
To summarize this song, the way each instrument matches the development, and their musical knowledge, are respectively completed at a high level.
Not just that, this song has a solid concept and story, which beautifully fit within the short time of 2 minutes without overdoing it.
I felt the composer's feelings in this project through this kind of wonderful song.

pop'n music Sunny Park

Flying Kite (Procyon no kishidan・fukudanchou)

[> Start an adventure

─── A long time ago.
A period when the world was filled with music.

On the outskirts of a winter sky region, in the "Canis Minor Village", as the harvesting season finished, many villagers from here and there enjoyed various songs and music with stories such as a heroic prince with a bow, a brother and sister who got lost in a witch's forest, a rumor about a pillow with a snot bubble, and a legendary female knight who fought alone, and they sang and performed for daily fun, competing for scores and combos.

In such a peaceful Canis Minor Village, one day, a cat-faced king who lives in a palace on a somewhat red slope and governs Leo and Virgo, suddenly appeared with elegant musician knights accompanying him.
The king gathered everyone in the Canis Minor Village and spoke to them.
"Are there any musicians here?"
And "if there's someone who can perform brilliant music, I'll send a reward".
This caused a commotion among all the villagers.
Humans, dogs, racoons, foxes, and even a black kite which usually flies round and round the sky, danced in front of the king while showing off and competing with their proud singing, flutes, and strings...... it soon became a large festival, and as winter came closer, the village was brilliantly colored and excited.

Well, a growing boy was watching the commotion from the shadows.
His name was "Procyon".
Usually, he's a serious boy who helps out with his family's business, maintaining the 9 buttons, but on that day, he was immersed in the knights accompanying the king.
Shining gold and silver armor, a brilliantly embroidered cape, and several polished musical instruments.
Their sophisticated royal behavior, sturdy backs, and dignified eyes.
As this was his first time seeing the brave figures of those elegant and noble knights, Procyon's small heart throbbed.
For the first time on this day, Procyon's life was hugely shaken, and he encountered something he very greatly "admired".

After one winter morning, the king left and the commotion subsided.
"Mother. Father. Please forgive me"
Leaving a note behind, the boy decided to leave the village.
A wooden stick in place of a sword. A pot lid in place of a shield.
Chocolate and biscuits in his left pocket.
A Yuu-mart cashless card in his right pocket.
Before the morning sun rose, a determined Procyon vigorously flew out of the Canis Minor Village in order to become that knight he admired.

However, at that time, Procyon didn't know that he'll eventually be dragged into a battle for the world, which will affect his planet's fate.

This is a magnificent adventure story (saga) that everyone thought of when they were young, weaved with the power of "admiring".

And this story's outcome is entrusted to you with your pop'n skills───

☆・・☆・・☆・・☆・・☆・・☆・・☆・・☆・・☆

Nice to meet you all, my name is Flying Kite.
Thank you very much for choosing "Procyon no kishidan" among the songs from the public song contest.
I'm very honored that my song will be included in the game I've continued to play for over 10 years!

After all, that's why it's called Minna de tsukutte in pop'n 20 fantasia.
Continuing from the illustration and character applications was the long awaited public song contest, and I couldn't help but participate with all my heart and memories.
Since this fantasia world has taken care of me for several years, I needed to appear in that sense! That's what I felt.
Also, since 2012 was a time when I felt stuck in various ways, I once again went back to basics, created it how I liked, and if it doesn't work here, I made "Procyon no kishidan" with such feeling.
My heart is filled that it was able to see the light of day.
When it was able to be revealed, fantasia had ended.
Are you still playing fantasia?! I received many comments.
But due to pop'n 20 fantasia and the public song contest, please forgive this song and genre name.

Well, that's why it's "fantasia".
Speaking of fantasia, when the boy went on a journey, he took it for granted.
A boy goes on an adventurous journey towards a magnificent fantasy world.
He should leave. It's said that when a lion travels, he takes care of his cubs and travels with them.
While the young and reckless boy is on a journey, he'll meet many friends, grow up, become an elegant knight, defeat his fateful enemy, and return home.
This is fantasia! Sometimes there's a sad farewell and cries, and it's also admirable to be drawn into evil temptations.
I created this song with the image of starting a fantasia which heats our hearts.
Instead of the knights themselves, this song is for miracles and adventures, where the great "admiration" of boys and girls towards such a large and dazzling appearance, and those uncontrollable hot feelings start from now on.
To all the former boys and girls from the good old fantasia era, and to all the active boys and girls who should be in fantasia, I believe that this song will definitely move you.
To all the pop'n players around the world, whose hot fantasia feelings are hidden deep within your hearts, this is "Procyon no kishidan".
Well, it's time for an adventure. Preparing for departure!
But fantasia has ended.

Well then, finally, I'd like to sincerely thank all my friends for their cooperation and support during the first screening pass and selection.
To all the pop'n players who voted and supported me during the second screening.
And to wac and all the pop'n team, who gave me the opportunity to give my opinion on Procyon's character design, I'd like to give my deep gratitude to you.
Thank you very much!

Under this flag's oath that I've now planted here.
May our fantasies shine forever.

eimy

Since this song had a perfectly completed story, I had to think again about designing Procyon!
If it was a movie, I'd like to do something like this or that... this song aroused many delusions, and I tried to incorporate my own fantasies and "Canis Minor"-like keywords.
I also love the cape with dog paw holes, which Flying Kite said was interesting!
I wonder how Procyon, a young swordsman who traveled to become a knight, grew and returned home? Everyone, please try to go on an adventure while listening to this song♪
Thank you very much for this lovely song!

pop'n music Sunny Park

While experiencing many things during his adventures, it appears Procyon has steadily grown up big and strong.
I want everyone to quickly see how far he's grown.

tokky

I thought of Procyon, who's excited about traveling across an unseen world.
I want to go on a royal RPG.
Even so, I wonder what's really happening with Procyon's ears.

masaru

This song feels most like pop'n 20's "fantasia" theme.
The adventure starts here! This song has that rhythmic feeling.

PON

The expanding Procyon world mainly has 16th notes.
During the production, I struggled to set the difficulty level just right, but I finally felt good and calmed down.
However, Flying Kite is a good writer. Look at his comment length!

TAMA

Since symphonic music genres were slightly lonely around here, this song perfectly feels addictive.

Mameshiba

The second half section feels boss battle-ish, and the climax in the final section is hot!
Afterwards is the final "tame".
Te-rere-rerere-rerre
It sounds like that. I can't help it.

For some reason, I felt very nostalgic.
Does anyone have feel the same?

Ga~su~

It's RPG-like and cool.
This song has a complete story.

Chihi

His ears are cute.
Mimi's drooping ears in Sunny Park also tug at my heart~.
I occasionally raised my previous dog's ears to let the wind pass through, so this child also wants to do this with his ears. Should I tie them on top?♪
...... are they... earmuffs?
This song has a nice and gentle fantasia atmosphere which is perfect for pop'n♪
I have fond memories of when the designers thought Canis Minor was a blue star, but Flying Kite told them it was yellow...
Even on a very long journey, this child will be alright with his liveliness, and I'm sure he'll make his dreams come true and return!!

As suggested by the title, this song feels like it tells a story. A fantasy world expands, with various shining and lively sounds pleasantly gathering, and various costumed people gathering around a chivalric parade and square. Furthermore, from Flying Kite's comment... oh... there're more images... I'm excited about the stories connecting with fantasia~. It's amazing!

This character is also perfect and needs an audience! And Procyon was able to depart. The needlepoint in his cape is cute. I wonder what kinds of encounters he'll face during his travels, and how he'll grow. Good luck~!

Even though it's nothing, please look at this passionate composer's comment.
Yeah. It's long. Longer than mine. This comment.
It feels like Flying Kite's Procyon world is valued to that extent.
I'm sure their comment is long because they value it to that extent, right? That's why wac's comment is also nice.

This time, the concept was for the songs' characters to be existing pop'n characters wearing brand-new costumes once again.
However, because of this song's worldview, we couldn't use an existing character as expected, and I requested the designers to start drawing a new character.

Depicting a world with only music, without videos or lyrics.
Even if you can create something, you become complacent and it's a very difficult role to gain sympathy.
With music from now on, please weave a brand-new story from Procyon's story.
