Overview
インドア系ならトラックメイカー (Indoor kei nara trackmaker) is a self-referential electro-house track by producer Yunomi and vocalist nicamoq that playfully documents the daily life of an indoor-type music producer. Originally released as a standalone single in 2016, the song underwent extensive revision, the first version dates back to 2013, and the publicly released version is the sixth iteration. Its lyrics weave together references to MIDI controllers, fashion center shopping, caffeine-fueled all-nighters, and the recurring refrain "エビデイ エビナイ トラックメイカー" (Every day, every night, track maker).
The song joined the maimai DX roster as part of the UNiVERSE update on January 28, 2022, following its debut in CHUNITHM CRYSTAL PLUS in October 2020. In Asian regions, it arrived on June 3, 2022, and in China on 舞萌DX 2022 on March 10, 2023. Its MASTER chart, designed by 一ノ瀬 リズ at level 13 (difficulty constant 13.4), is known for dense slide patterns that demand careful hand coordination, including 32nd-note rotational slides and 24th-note swing rhythms. The EXPERT chart by Jack takes a contrasting approach, emphasizing long hold-note sequences, 184 hold notes out of 439 total, an unusual distribution for its level bracket. Both charts showcase contrasting design philosophies for the same 128 BPM source material, making the song a notable two-charter study in the UNiVERSE era.

Trivia

- The MASTER chart's slide sections are organized in repeated phrase structures (直角 patterns, right-angle corners), with each repetition slightly offset by an eighth-note beat, creating a disorienting pattern that players must internalize.
- The lyrics include wordplay such as ハウスダスト ノンふぃっくしょん (house dust, non-fiction) and 花粉症にはマスクメロン (for hay fever, a mask melon), mixing domestic humor with music-production terminology.
