♬ doppelgänger – Creepy Nuts
It features a four-on-the-floor sound with an intoxicating, danceable beat that leaves a strong impression.
Centered on themes of personal identity and self-awareness, the song’s duality—its front and back sides—at times evokes a dark atmosphere.
Written as the theme song for the film Under Ninja, this work perfectly matches Creepy Nuts’ worldview and the story.
It will be included on the album LEGION, scheduled for release in March 2025, which is also set to feature tie-in tracks from popular anime.
It’s a recommended track for anyone who wants to sway their body while reexamining their sense of self.
It also works well when you want to refresh your mood with dance music or as background music for posting dance videos on social media.
