dptfct (???)For the first batch of AI Battle Performance unlockables, it's kind of fitting to be rewarded with a computer-noise-sounding piece after defeating a Taiko drum AI a lot of times! Too bad it didn't last that way, though...
The artist-subtitle-unavailable wonderful ROUTINE was originally playable for Banapassport players for beating 250 times the AI-Don companion in his dedicated sub mode, however a really pesky technical fault has lead to the song to be publicly available shortly after, with other unlockables switching places later in the year. We didn't have a lead on its composer's identity for a long time, up until the very same artist had decided to namedrop himself... and just last month at that, during one of the BNSI-hosted official YouTube livestreams under the Banastar Sound Namaster (バナスタサウンズナマスタ) series! Behind the song is Yusuke Kudo (工藤祐介), one of the latest BNSI recruits, currently credited for select songs in Ace Combat 7 and a few album credits concerning Bandai Namco as a whole, from an image song in iDOLM@STER to a track contribution from one of the earlier collaboration albums released under Bandai Namco's ASOBINOTES label, ALL ABOUT LOVE vol.2.
Fans of comparison similitudes out there, rejoice for yet another blending-inspired one: take Akuukan Yuuei ac12.5's 1/16 technical charting, Hayabusa's mono-note, fast-scrolling sudden clusters, a garnish of 1/24 spikes, mix them up together and finish with the copyright-soon-expiring trippy barlines(TM) and presto, you've hit Oni jackpot yet again! The world of electronics is further built upon with the title unlock, as the full-combo Oni title while(1) ROUTINE(); is nothing but a computing function. Punch that in C or another programming language to see it infinitely looping the function 'ROUTINE' and you can't argue there's a more wonderful ROUTINE to follow than that one!
