Song Production Information

It's a bit more mature, with a bit more nostalgic groove. But I don't want to make it sound old-fashioned, and it may or may not have a bit of Trevor Horn. I wonder if it's different? Occasionally, I thought it would feel have a more relaxed feel, but it's completely different.... Thank you for letting me have a fun job.

Video Production Information

HES

The theme is "pixels" and "love story?"

My personal impression is that this song makes me imagine games from the late '70s to early '80s. I initially thought it seemed interesting to create a video of a fictional game called "route 80s" and drew pixel art characters, but the idea grew too big to be realized within the time period, so it's now in this form.
