???We've heard about Namco Original composers with a really wide list of musical contributions in general media in the past, as well as people who is either just starting up or whose background works are (or have been) a mystery for the longest time. As of December of the last year, we can now nover a name so new to hear about that the very first social media-related post for the artist was the notification of this very song getting adopted into the Taiko no Tatsujin family!
Created by the nicknamed Taiji (or Taijiλ, from the proprietary Twitter profile), the techno-styled λ7708 is a fully instrumental track whose sound and name are seemingly connected to India by a couple of refencing links to some of said nation's more known landmarks. From a face-value perspective, the number 7708 matches the altitude of the Tirich Mir, the highest peak in the Hindu Kush ranch; this connection is enforced thanks to a different reading key of the name λ7708 in leet speak, once the string has been mirrored both horizontally and vertically, giving out a string of characters reading as 'Bolly', which can easily be seen as a diminutive of Bollywood, the Hindu-rooted film industry.
Whatever your reading key for the title is the leet speak-rooted one of the literal 'Lambda-seven-seven-o-eight' that the song's creator also promoted on his Twitter feed, the full-accuracy Oni notechart attached to this song gives one message and one message alone: Babby's First Donkama 2000. While the repeating note pattern portions may ease up on the muscle memory skills of more seasoned Taiko players, first-timers will have the thrill of their lives with frequent scrolling speed changes that fluctuate between x0.1 and x2 values in the first half, coupled with joint BPM shifts to better convey the feel of that final Don deathstream bonanza!
