Original text

イーラ専用バトル曲ということで、ほんのりと尺八で和っぽいテイストを入れてみました。制作当時は、ハードコアパンクやニューメタルをよく聴いていて、まあ全然曲は違いますが、その感情を入れたつもりです。脚本を読んでいて、イーラはなんだかパンキッシュな雰囲気があると感じていたせいか、自然とそんな感じがいいと思ったのかなと。シンセサイザーはクセになるようなリフになったらいいなと思い入れてみました。

Unofficial translation

Since this is a battle theme made exclusively for Torna, I tried to add a slight Japanese feel to it using the shakuhachi instrument. At the time of the production of this song I was listening to a lot of hardcore punk and nu-metal. Although this song is completely different, I tried to incorporate that sort of raw emotion into it. Also, when I read the script for the game I felt that Torna had a somewhat punkish atmosphere to it. So, I naturally thought that kind of atmosphere would be good for this song. Lastly, when composing I wanted the synthesizer to create an addictive sort of riff, which I feel like I accomplished with this track.
