MUSIC


Prior to releasing Yume Nikki, it's creator KIKIYAMA uploaded a number of tracks on the now inactive website, players.music-eclub.com.

The only songs unavailable, that were never archived, are known as "Cicada Drums" released on August 25, 2003, and "Youth's Shadow" released on October 4, 2007.

If anyone has come across either of these songs, I would love to know. Please contact me at doffyneocities@gmail.com with any extra information regarding these lost tracks.

BK5 - August 25, 2003
DisChild - September 4, 2003
KALIMBA - January 13, 2004
NEON - December 2, 2003
Old Series 1 - November 18, 2003
WAVE - May 11, 2005


  • BK5  -  This is a song I made from when I first started making music, but I like it and it's one of several remixes. Please listen to it.

  • DisChild  -  It's a song with the momentum of disco music. I recorded it while applying the RS7000's master effect.

  • KALIMBA  -  It's a minimalist techno song. The sound of kalimba is the main tune.

  • NEON  -  I found a pattern I made before that I liked, so I remade it into song length. This time I stopped doing ad-lib and put my heart into making it.

  • Old Series 1  -  It's a gentle pop song I made with the RM1x back in the day. (The intro is rushing because I recorded the second half after about 10 minutes of modulation.)

  • WAVE  -  It's a song with a pop feel. I made it by connecting the QY70 and RS7000.
