I visited each time the shop held a seasonal event, checking out the records and deepening my relationship with Mr. die, who is also the designer of Jazzy Sport. There I gave him my sound recordings, and then I continued to give them to him over and over again. These efforts bore fruit and finally led to the release of Jazzy Sport. One day, Mr. die asked me, \"What sports are you interested in these days? When I replied, \"Basketball,\" he replied, \"Dunking! He replied, \"Dunking!From that one word, the name \"TAKDANK\" was born, although spelled a little differently. The title \"ON YOUR MARK\" is also a phrase often heard at the starting line of sports and competitions. \"On your mark!\" -a signal that something is about to begin. The title was chosen to express the energy of that moment.\n\nTakahiro Fuchigami a.k.a.
