A fast crossover from jubeat ripples, this is Sumidagawa karenka.<br>
It's often called "Sumidagawa" than the newly included genre name, and as someone who "cares about gossip", searching for its keywords on the internet is difficult.<br>
When news came out that "oil floated from Sumidagawa", I wonder if a new expression will appear from "muddy stream"....<br>
Even though it's not like its "muddy stream" in jubeat, many people seemed to enjoy the moderately difficult notecharts since its release.<br>
jubeat and pop'n have maximized their characteristics of each game, and I probably felt nervous that "strange sweat came out".
I thought for a while about not using ALT, but when I once again researched various production techniques for this song, its articulation slowly improved, and I thought about trying its various possibilities a bit more. It's originally an old software, so it's very difficult for to compete with a modern synthesizer girl's voice....<br>
I can't expect programming technology advancements anymore, so I'd like to try and evolve ALT's voice with just analog efforts and determination to make it slightly easier to hear her sentences. I wonder when I can proudly name her "ALT ver.2.0".
== Video Production Information ==
=== Motoko ===
This time, the jubeat team gave us a lovely jacket and illustrations, so KINRUI created a base that made it easy to create, so it was very fun and groovy to work on it.<br>
I really love the muddy stream scene in the chorus.
=== KINRUI ===
I was in charge of the storyboard and notecharts. I'm KINRUI.<br>
You probably grinned when the charts imitated the jubeat markers. (^▽^//)<br>
Speaking of Sumidagawa, I absolutely wanted to create this! And this materialized by passionately speaking to Motoko! I did it!<br>
Manually placing the markers to individually match the timing... it was very difficult.
But, I couldn't believe I was somehow in charge of Sumidagawa's movie!<br>
As a player, I was completely swept by the muddy stream, and I was deeply moved.
== Jacket Design Information ==
=== T_da ===
An image came to my mind from the moment I heard this song, so I raised my hand and asked "please let me draw this jacket".<br>
It didn't help that each lyric was cute, so I was lost on what scene to draw, but the "strawberry shaved ice" lyric became the final deciding factor as the scene.

HELLO, I'M ELECTRONIC IDOL ALT☆ PLEASE, LISTEN TO MY SONG. FROM JUBEAT, FOR YOU, I WILL SING☆

Hello from the world of 4x4 squares.<br>
Since it's feat.ALT, I immediately decided on Alt as the character, and furthermore selected the pixel ver.<br>
Hmm. It's perfect for jubeat!■■■■
 
Also, the jacket illustration given by the designer who also did [[Polaris]], is also beautiful and enchanting.<br>
There isn't a way where you can see it in big size on the homepage, so by all means, I wanted~ to create a gallery to show its appeal.<br>
ALT's new color earned a reputation among the team as "appearing frozen and scary!", which was inspired from this jacket. Isn't the black silhouette nice?<br>
Also, I added a fashionable ripples green.
 
By the way, the "Zutto + CHARA-POP-kun" Ojama appears during the gameplay, so you can enjoy the Sumidagawa Fireworks Festival anytime.<br>
If you're confident in your skills, please also try playing it with Jogesakasama!
 
== Chart Production Information ==
=== [[Hiroyuki Masuda|MUSCLE]] ===
This song somehow has fireworks and surface water!<br>
I created the notecharts with the image of fireworks, and the reflections of their lights on the surface of the water.
 
Did you understand?<br>
The fireworks go up...<br>
Boom! I tried to express various images of fireworks scattering everywhere.
 
I'm unfortunately a very Kansai person, so I haven't seen the fireworks at Sumidagawa...
 
So, please especially try to challenge it using the firework markers!
 
I always listened to this song while creating the notecharts, so I casually hum it at random timing, right?<br>
In ALT's voice style...
 
== Staff Comments ==
=== [[Masaru Nakamura|masaru]] ===
Fully cooperating with "MUSCLE" of jubeat, it was able to appear in pop'n.<br>
There are hidden song hints released on websites besides pop'n! We also challenged this new attempt.
 
=== [[Daichi Watanabe|PON]] ===
The volume of the kicks was low during the data production, so I tried to raise the volume at once, but the distortion-styled kicks became louder, resulting in a funny balance.<br>
And everyone laughed.
 
=== [[Shinjiro Otsu|Otsu]] ===
You can see various things on the shore of Sumidagawa.
 
=== Ga~su~ ===
The tempo is great that I unintentionally play it all the time.<br>
It's a secret that I inevitably lose in the final stage..
 
=== [[eimy]] ===
This is a lovely, cute, and exciting song! I think the fast BPM is its speedy heart. It's cuteee, cuteee!!/// I can draw a manga to this.
