???One week and a hundred BPM of difference since the past Taiko de Time Travel track, we're back at that trope again with music inspired by the decade in which yours truly was born, too! The meatiest chunk of trivia about the song was already released with last Friday's Taiko Team blog entry, so here we'll focus more on the newcoming Taiko vocalists' background instead.
For the female-lead vocal side, we have the latest virtual singer rep among Namco Originals in musica (Twitter; YouTube), donning the Italian word for 'music' as an alias for vocal covers online. In activity online since July 2019, her motto is "Dreams are real life!", which is leading reason of musica trying her mettle by singing tracks of many different genres. Joining her with an oily rap performance is Kazutoshi Sanga (三箇一稔; Twitter), more known in the musical scene under the Parc Manther alias. While not mentioned in the Taiko Team's introductory blog post for the song, it's known through Tatsh's social feed (link) that the nicknamed sak was also summoned for Hold me tight, on the guitar.

Back to Kazutoshi Sanga, he's one of the founding members of 2002's male 'n' female parody/comedy act of Nanshiki globe (軟式globe, lit. 'Softball Globe') from the early 2000s, with the 'Parc Manther' alias born by swapping the initials of J-Pop/Trance unit Glove's Marc Panther, as a humorous homage. Nanshiki globe's activity on its founding was for the TBS Variety show Gakkou e Ikkou! (学校へ行こう!), where he and the nicknamed KOIKE performed as part of the show's B-RAP HIGH SCHOOL section. Appearing for 20 episodes between 2002 and 2003, the act was disbanded only to re-emerge in 2013 with the same Parc Manther (now dubbed 'the third') and different backup singers over time -also nicknamed KOIKE like the first one- to expand their reach to the ongoing scene, as well as Parc Manther's own YouTube channel! Before the act experience, he also belonged to the dancing group Dancing Deka (ダンシング刑事),
where he performed with the act name as his own first alias.
A full-1/16 notechart for the song's Oni mode is here to make players think back to the leading charter trends of yesteryear while also holding the questionable boon of being (at this time) the Taiko de Time Travel song with the lowest Muzukashii and Oni ratings among all Taiko de Time Travel tunes.
