Suppression and liberation.
Maybe both of them are necessary.

U1-ASAMi






Because we want love,
we put on some music.
Let's dance together.

U1-ASAMi






I wanted to create a song that has the same feel as the songs by the popular band, "Otome House."
The vocalist's airy voice perfectly matches this tune.
If this song is played at full volume at a club, I'm sure everybody will groove to this.

TOMOSUKE






This is a boss song like "SUPER SAMURAI" in Hottest Party.
I was going to make a rave type song like the previous song. But somehow I felt an urge to create a "happy hardcor" tune. Then I ended up making this song!
I don't know why but I sometimes feel the urge to write "happy hardcore" songs.

I picked the title, "SILVER☆DREAM," to give you a sparkling image.
It's a pretty difficult song, but get the sparkling feel and enjoy dancing!

I want to sing this song myself someday...

When I finished creating this song, somehow I wasn't quite happy about my arrangement. So I asked jun to rearrange the song.

NAOKI


I (jun) arranged NAOKI's song and NAOKI arranged my song!
It was our first time to do this arrangement exchange for English songs.

This song was created by NAOKI and rearranged by me (jun).
I was pretty nervous because I did not want to lose the pop feel that I got when I listened to this song for the first time.
But at the same time, I had a lot of fun arranging a song created by NAOKI.

I actually want to remix many other NAOKI's songs.
NAOKI, please let me do it someday!!

NAOKI arranged my (jun's) song and I arranged a NAOKI's song!
It was our first time to do this arrangement exchange for English songs.

This song was created by me (jun) and rearranged by NAOKI.
I gave NAOKI a rough version of this song and a few days later, I was pleasantly surprised by this remix. I have never imagined that the song would sound like this!

NAOKI often remix my songs for TЁЯRA. But this remix was so different from other remixes. I was impressed again with NAOKI's broad range of abilities.

NAOKI sound is truly deep.

I liked this tune created by jun, so I was happy to rearrange this.

NAOKI






Strive together. Learn and teach each other.

This is jun.
I am a navigator to help players enjoy playing Hottest Party 2.☆

I'm a navigator? I'm embarrassed.

When I was asked to be a navigator, I wasn't sure if I should do it. I was like, "is it OK for me to speak in the game?" But since it was a rare opportunity for me, I decided to accept the offer!
I was so happy to be able to experience different tasks including character design which I usually don't have a chance to experience.
Thank you for allowing me to be a navigator!

Come on, everyone!
DDR veterans, DDR beginners,
fathers, mothers, girls, boys, people who don't get enough exercise... and YOU!

Everybody, let's dance!

Let's play Hottest Party 2! ☆

It's like a flower reflected in a mirror.


It's like the moon reflected on the surface of the water. 


The place where you dance is…


a sad, transient, isolated visionary castle.


I want you to understand,


"There is no truth there."

Among all the songs I made for Hottest Party 2, this was the first song I completed.
I wanted to create a ballade for the longest time, so I was so happy to be able to make this song!!
I truly enjoyed making this song.

I asked Rita to do vocal for the first time.
When I listened to a Rita's demo, I thought, "I've got to have Rita for this song!"

This is one of my favorite songs! ♥♥♥

Hello, fans of Hottest Party 2! I'm LEA DROP.
"JUST BELIEVE" is a powerful girls' rock song.
Let's dance as aggressively as the strong sound.

LEA DROP






Here is a truly hip, cool track for you.
This is a rap for grown-ups. The beat of the words is amazing, right?
I wanted to pay a tribute to that famous song. Have you noticed?
It's nice to soak in the grown-up ambiance.
I want to create a song like this again. I promise I will!
