My only wish is that WARNING's mix de-emphasized the synth and emphasized the guitar... That's a personal preference though lol. The mix is still slick, and i'm sure the heavier synth is exactly what Ayu & tasuku were going for.
To me it makes it seem less natural, honest, and rockish & more manufactured, plastic, and poppy than it seems to want to be. But like... that's the sort of musical trope I grew up around. In my mind (and I can't really help it), real instruments = rock = honest = art, synth instruments = pop = fairy tales = product. That's obviously not true 100% of the time, nor was it even when I was younger, but it's a general thing... Synthesizers have become an aural cue for "dance pop made by producers" and guitars are an aural cue for "honest singer-songwriter."
