“All of our creative collaborations with Free! have left a strong impression, and I’m very attached to them. We will continue working hard on production without forgetting our beginnings.”

OLDCODEX has released numerous hit songs for the Free! series, including “Rage On” (Free! OP), “Dried Up Youthful Fame” (Free! -Eternal Summer- OP), “Aching Horns” (High Speed! Free! Starting Days theme song), and “Heading to Over” (Free!-Dive to the Future!- OP). Their Remix Album, released in March under the “Re:OLDCODEX” theme, also drew a lot of attention for tracks such as “Aching Horns -Full Colors Remix-”. Look forward to more great OLDCODEX x Free! collaborations in the future!
