[LunaMoon0925]

素人の意見ですが，

この曲を聴くと，教授の曲「ＮＧＯ」を思い出します。

ボサノヴァ風味ということですかね？

[NiirvashTZERO]

The choppy background music sounds a lot like Todd Edwards' style. I wonder if he was an inspiration to Taku Takahashi in producing this track...

[synesthesia86]

@Joshkazid unless ryuichi sakamoto was inspired by todd edwards (because this is his style of true electronic musical control and distortion) I don't think so.

[Joshkazid]

@synesthesia86 We talking about the same Ryuichi Sakamoto here? The one I know of is mainly a piano-based composer. This is clearly produced by Taku Takahashi, with Sakamoto most likely providing musical input. And seeing as Todd Edwards remixed m-flo's song "How You Like Me Now?" prior to this, it wouldn't surprise me if Taku had taken influence from him.

[synesthesia86]

@Joshkazid brush up on his non movie albums and his collaborations with such notable as alva noto and you'll see where I'm coming from here.

[LunatiqueSF]

@Joshkazid You should do a search on Sakamoto Ryuichi. He's not just a "piano-based composer." He's also one of the pioneers of electronic music, and many of today's electronic artists are influenced by him and his band Yellow Magic Orchestra. Sakamoto's electronic album B-2 Unit was ahead of its time, and the electronic tracks he composed for the anime film Royal Space Force: Wings of Honneamise is some of the best electronic music I've ever head--especially the ending credit track called Fade.

[kellsnguyen]

[1x93cm]

freakin unbelievable

[OrenjiGurl]

TOTALLY 5 STARS!!!

[IBetYouWillFemales]

That beat is crazy,and those chopped up lyrics are INSANE! Thanks. :-)

[vstlink]

It may be catchy and pop, but not so groovy.

The vocal sounds just like a early talking software.

If the remixer have more respected to the rhyme of VERBAL,

the result might have been better.

[GETINTHECARITSALION]

Awesome! Until now, I've only heard the Space Cowboy mix...but the original is waaaay more unique. ;)

[RAKSTAR1991]

There's so much that rules about this song. xD The Chopping, the editing, the beat, and Verbal's rap is SICK. <3

[anonymousno]

this song is... dizzying

but smart and i liked how it ended

[apcdaisuki]

さすが教授！！！

[k1awdttt]

SAKAMOTO!!!

[7SOCAL7]

[MikeHummyButthole]

says "KimchiEmo"

At Least my name isn't contradictory.

[bleachgeek514973]

Verbal and Taku = m-flo= awesomeness

[Vrykolass]

all that cutting is sic :)

VERBAL and DJ Taku are like the greatest

[sugaslave]

phwoa.. mindblowing or earblowing? either one!

[feelhermind]

The choppy editing is dizzying... but in a good way. :)

VERBAL's rap here is really sweet.

[legendofonestar]

This song must have been a NIGHTMARE to produce, but the unique sound really works well.

[lhuiz01]

Yeah, I Feel you dude... I wonder how many weeks this track could take eh?? :D

[IBetYouWillFemales]

@legendofonestar Yeah, I can only imagine the only way they did the lyrics was to seperate each individual word (and some syllables) before arranging them.

Really paid off in the end though, I love it. :-)

[dhodgsondesign]

@legendofonestar Can't expect any less from 坂本様!

[DCstar]

@legendofonestar That wasn't the hard part though of making this song. Taku and Ryuichi Sakamoto were in different cities at the time so they had to exchange works through e-mail.
