"De.Ba.Ya.Shi. 2021" is the first track on Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's fifth studio album Candy Racer (2021). It was released on October 27, 2021 through KRK Lab.[1]
Background and release[]
Similarly to the other first tracks on Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's previous four records, "De.Ba.Ya. Shi. 2021" acts as an intro to the Candy Racer album, featuring minimal lyrics and vocals in favor of the instrumental. The production of "De.Ba.Ya.Shi. 2021" is jarringly different than that of previous album intros such as "Kyary no March" and "Pamyu Pamyu Revolution", featuring a much heavier lean towards rave music and showcasing an unabashed hardstyle sound, as well as elements of gabber-influenced techno.
In an interview with Real Sound, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu mentioned that "De.Ba.Ya.Shi. 2021" was the final song recorded during the sessions for Candy Racer, stating "I usually record the opening song last. My voice is layered in a number of patterns, and it’s the kind of song that people get excited about when they arrive at festivals. Then, keeping the momentum going, the second song, “Candy Racer,” comes around two laps later, and it's a powerful musical number with cool techno sounds and cute voice effects."[2]
