==About The Game==
Follow along with the song by scratching the turntable and pressing the keys as the bars reach the bottom of the screen. If you manage to successfully hit each note on-key perfectly, a combo meter will go up, increasing your score. Do well enough by the end of the song, and you can progress to the next level.

Konami released a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (beatmania 4th Mix Original Soundtracks - KMCA-1) on 17/06/1999.
