Designer notes from the Konami
web site. As usual, I highlighted all their text in orange.
■SOUND
BPM400 だぞころ！！別に倍取りしてなくてだうへ＄＿＄
この曲は、私利合いのいかしたバンドの、
SHIGEちゃんに唄をやってもらったんだうへ。
この収録がまた楽しかったころな～、
１時間以内でおわったんだがだなうへへ、
SHIGEちゃんうへ、サビトカ結構好きかってに歌ったりして、
それを採用したりしてうへうへ、
SHIGEちゃんもギタリストなんだば、
SHIGEちゃんから、「ぎたーすげ～勉強になりましたコロ」なんか言われたりして、
おせじでもいい気になっちゃたっりしながらうへ、あっと言う間のいちじかんだっじゃ。
まあ、楽しんでもらえばうへころ、SHIGEのコメはすかうしまってろけころ。
この曲すっげー気にってうへってころってまる。
すげころげふぁ～すやおは
Check it out, it is BPM400!! I guess it was unnecessary to make it twice as fast as any conventional song $__$
For this song, I asked SHIGE from one of the bands 3Y3 |<|\|3\/\/ [I knew] to sing it [this guy is literally writing in what is the Japanese equivalent of l33t but using kanji. In Japanese, it is called "Shigo" 私語].
This recording was very fun and we finished it within an hour, heh heh. In the best sounding part of the song, SHIGE went nuts and sang lyrics that he just made up on the fly, on his own accord, which helped me a lot too and I actually incorporated some of it in the final song. SHIGE told me, "I learned a lot from your guitar playing skills" even though he is a guitarist himself and I was flattered by his comment, which all happened in a short time interval of one hour.
I hope you all enjoy this just like how SHIGE enjoyed it. I really love this song [this sentence is written in Japanese l337]. Thanks a lot [also in Japanese l337].

■DESIGN
今回のギタドラは人気イラストレーターさんを
たくさん起用されていてすごいですねー！
私も以前からファンだった方もいらっしゃって、
同じゲームで共演？できて嬉しかったです。
そんな個性ありまくりのクリップ揃いなので、
私のは一歩ひいてかるーく息抜きできるようなものにしたいなと思いました。
ちょうど担当させていただいた曲も、
さわやか☆キラメキ☆セイシュンソングですしね。
It is awesome how Konami is using a lot of popular illustrators for this mix!
I am fan of some of these illustrators so I am very excited that I am able to work along with them.
As mentioned earlier, this mix has a lot of unique and talented illustrators, I wanted to design something that is more relaxing and normal.
Coincidentally, the song I am going to design graphics for is refreshing and cool sounding.
春が青くてあつがなついぜー。
The springtime is still young and summer is still to come [though it sounds weird in English, he is rhyming out a little saying in Japanese].
というわけで作曲者さんにお伺いしつつイメージを固めて
「溶け出せば どこにでも行ける
鳴らす sonic melody 描き
心の目にはどんくらいの世界が spread out ! ?」
Anyways I asked how the composer wanted me to design the artwork for this song.
"You can go anywhere if you melt yourself
Draw the ringing sonic melody
I cannot imagine how much the world is spread out!?"
みんなお気に入りのこの部分から
「部屋から外へ飛び出して、はては世界から宇宙に飛び出してしまえ！」
な中学生的ロックスターへの夢(妄想)なんつったりしてな、
やんちゃっぽさ。をテーマにしてみました。いかがでしょうか？
気に入っていただけたら嬉しいです。
Taken from everyone's favorite phrase
"Fly out of the room, into outer space and just fly away!"
I made a theme of the dream of a typical junior high school student's wishes to be a rock star. How is it? I hope you guys will like it.
