I love everything about this anime!
Just to make something clear, I've never been to a club nor have I ever written a review of anything.
This anime has awesome attention to detail when it comes to music equipment:
There is a vinyl record box with a famous Nirvana & Beatles album (Idk them because I don't listen to this type of music but I at least know about the guys walking across the streets and the baby swimming for money.)
The DJ uses Serato Scratch Live time-coded vinyls with Technics SL-1210 direct drive turntables plugged into a Pioneer DJM.
Steave Kido is literally just Steve Aoki. At first I
...
wasn't sure but when they mentioned the cake throwing, I knew it was him. He also uses the same DAW as the real Steve Aoki (Apple Logic Pro).
The alarm sample at 7:18 in episode 2 and somewhere later too is a real sample, I first heard it in Charly Lownoise & Mental Theo's Wonderful Days (Rotterdam Mix).
The vinyl record in the intro has real grooves and a run-out groove + the label looks accurate.
Summer Sonia kinda sounds like Tomorrowland.
The music sounds like real electronic music. The scene where Kongming is brought to his first club in episode one was really realistic.
The list of music genres Eiko shows to Kongming has real genres. The only problem I find is that Trance and EDM are both shown even though Trance is an EDM sub-genre.
It mentions artists expanding to other genres like house which is actually happening. (Like when pop music went from guitars to EDM).
The type of music the anime seems focused around really reminds me of classic Eurodance. The guy rapping and the women singing is the biggest hint.
For the discrepancies:
Kabe's Techincs SL-1200 is too thin (in height) to be real. (the one stashed away next to the trash).
I'm pretty sure that's it.
