Overview
"my flow" is an original instrumental composition by crayvxn, introduced to maimai でらっくす as part of the BUDDiES edition on October 20, 2023. The track runs at 157 BPM with a duration of 2:06 and carries no vocal or lyrical content, a pure instrumental built around an energetic, synth-driven arrangement that evokes forward momentum and electronic fluency, matching its title.
The song is accompanied by a distinctive sci-fi narrative in its in-game flavor text: a world where humanity discovered a new energy source called "ニュート" (Newt), used it to perfect robot labor, but triggered catastrophic environmental collapse. A strange petrification disease left people slowly turning to stone, their hearts the only organs spared. Unable to abandon the convenience of robot-assisted life, humanity polluted the Earth beyond recovery and eventually departed for other planets in search of habitable land. This worldbuilding, though not reflected in the music's lyrics (there are none), adds thematic depth to the track's inclusion in the Metropolis Area 7 progression.
The visuals were produced by サム and ヨシモト, whose work accompanies the official music video. In-game, the song was initially unlockable by reaching 220 km of total distance in Metropolis Area 7. Starting with the PRiSM version, it became available by default across all regions.
