"The night city is always glimmering with life isn't it? Millions of lights, all of them feels alive at night and they pulse their heart for one reason. It's Music!"
-Martin Forth, The Soundtrack of Defiance (3rd Live Concert ver.)
The Musical Revolution had began after the rumor of an ancient artifact called "Starlium Gear", is able to grant any wishes.
For the City of Rhythms, it became the beacon of hope for a better future and a symbol of resistance against the corporations that force the masses to work and consume their products mindlessly.
For these corporations doesn't care if there isn't a demand. They will make one with their absolute control over the people with the doctrine they implanted on their minds.
The Starlium Gear was the hope to fight against the growing oppression through voice and art.
United to find that freedom, they sing their hearts against the rules, they rebel in symphony, for one day, harmony will be achieved and by finding the "Starlium Gear" then such aimless dystopian future can be changed.
But one day, a violent rumble shakes the ground, the world people knew crumble before them, a tower emerged and pierce the sky and space itself, reality was broken right before their eyes.
A strange interface appeared.

The appearance of Source Codes that can manifest different phenomenas and abilities changed the world.
Androids that wields musical weapons, attack patterns that sync with the beat and rhythm appeared and driving humanity away from the living world. Only those with Source Code can fight back these cold blooded machines.
These metal constructs imitates the bygone memories of human history and the legacy it left behind, it used the stories that had buried by time, and these knowledge are being used against humanity themselves, subjecting them in a dilemma about their existence in the world they're living in.
But even so, humanity won't back down from it. They still have their own music to use.
It is said that music is an art from the motion of nature, ripples and waves of our reality. And damn robots think they could do better music than us and kill us with those same tricks?
"Notch your bass, stretch your joints, let the raving waves of musical flows over your electrical nose! Beat the corpos and beat the frauds! I'll sing this song to the world. Damn you robots!"
