Ken Hisuag Posted November 6, 2022 Author Share Posted November 6, 2022 I begin to wonder if I'll finish the PC-98 era before year's end. I could of course calculate it out now, but there's no impact either way so . . . Meylan - Illusion of a Maid ~ Icemilk Magic A relatively short arrangement that nonetheless manages to make its point. Surprising variety in the instrumentation, specifically contrasting its piano intro and interlude with its chiptune hybrid sections; it contrasts well without breaking the flow. Spoiler aKoidion - Cute Devil ~ Innocence Not your standard solo instrument cover, this is a detailed arrangement from a skilled accordion player. It's not a simple matter to make a single instrument cover sufficient range to make up for the lack of accompaniment, and while the accordion is one of the few instruments capable of multiple simultaneous layers, I still consider this quite a find. Spoiler Alstroemeria Records - DAYS / BEAUTIFUL MOMENT Once again, I'm struggling to find remixes of this game's later tracks, aside from circles I'd previously utilized. I'm using this piece for Days because of the extra bit at the end, which I think adds a nice touch considering what the original piece is meant to be. Spoiler To make up for that, here's a double-arrangement of Icemilk Magic and Cute Devil together: Lowlands Blossom - Dreamy and Illusionary Twin Moons Granted, this is more two separate remixes tacked together, rather than a proper combining of the themes.

Ken Hisuag Posted November 13, 2022 Author Share Posted November 13, 2022 Yuuhei Satellite, feat. Shinra-Bansho & Shoujo Fractal - Connecting With You (Full Collaboration ver.) What a big project for such an obscure track! Weirdly enough, while I appreciate both Yuuhei Satellite and Shinra-Bansho, I haven't found their collabs to be all that extraordinary compared to their standard projects. They are unique, though; perhaps this is the natural product of rectifying their respective styles? Personally, I think there's a different explanation, but I'm not willing to go too deep with it. Spoiler SilentBird - Arcadian Waltz Hi there, Gou! It's very fortunate that this exists, since I wasn't finding much for this piece otherwise. The original is rather chaotic in its energy, so this is a nice switch-up in comparison. Spoiler AramiTama - Blooming Flower at the End of the World Here's something unique; it reminds me of another piece from some time ago. I describe it as "loud ambience." Does anyone else find it mildly unsettling? Spoiler Quote TTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Hisuag Posted November 20, 2022 Author Share Posted November 20, 2022 zuikakup - Bizarre Romantic Story ~ Mystic Square I was hoping for something unique for this track, and I believe I found it. Though seemingly a bit slow, this arrangement make up for it with atmospheric progression that fits the melody perfectly. Spoiler Frost Fragment - Dream Express (Bittersweet Piano ver.) While the original piece is relatively fast, I thought the melody would suit a more remorseful tone. This captured exactly what I was looking for. Spoiler Paradise of Boundaries - Alternative Magic Formation ~ Magic Square (Arrangement - SA Style) Quality option for this one were scarce. A fair deal of what I found was zunish, so I decided to go with the best option from that. Spoiler Quote TTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Hisuag Posted November 24, 2022 Author Share Posted November 24, 2022 Special Thanksgiving feature! I usually struggle to find something for this, but this year I found an entire EP of zunish compositions themed around autumn. I'm only posting one of the five tracks, specifically themed for the holiday itself. Spoiler ProfPrac stated he composed in the style of Touhou 11; I find it odd he didn't go with 10 given the theme, but it works out alright.

Ken Hisuag Posted November 27, 2022 Author Share Posted November 27, 2022 Last minute post! Stygian Riverside - Dreamscope The majority of arrangements I found for this piece were zunish remasters; this rock remix stood out. Spoiler R3 Music Box - Spiritual Heaven ~ Spiritual Heaven There were other options, but the music box seemed to fit this piece especially well. Spoiler Komeiji Records - Romantic Children This one I feel a bit guilty for; the artist clarifies in the description that this is less of an arrangement and more of a transcription. Nonetheless, there is a unique sound to this piece, and I appreciate it. Spoiler Quote TTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Hisuag Posted December 3, 2022 Author Share Posted December 3, 2022 Murasame Umbrella - Plastic Mind The sound could be perceived as a bit messy, but less in an audio-quality way and more in an "intentional" sense. What surprised me most about this discovery was finding out that maritumix was associated with a larger circle. Spoiler Ink-Black Cherry Blossoms (Ink-dyed Sakura) - Maple Wise It's always a treat to find a creative arrangement of a less popular piece. Spoiler DJ Abner - Forbidden Magic I've never heard anything from DJ Abner that wasn't zunish, but I'm not surprised to discover his musical skills are more diverse.

Ken Hisuag Posted December 18, 2022 Author Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) Sick last week, but I'm back now. Bitawan - It's a Communist World! The audio quality of the source video was a little better than this turned out; my decision to use this piece was determined specifically upon the original sound. Spoiler Kinukawa T - Treacherous Maiden ~ Judas Kiss The timing of this arrangement (as in its beat) is what attracted my attention. Spoiler Nama Pan-ko - No Judgement The audio quality of this one might also be a bit less than ideal, but the arrangement itself should justify it.

Ken Hisuag Posted January 1 Author Share Posted January 1 Happy New Year, everyone! It is my tradition to utilize an arrangement from my "reserved for tournaments" collection around this time, in celebration of the old year's end. I'm having a harder time with that this year, in that I don't want to give some of them up. It's irrational; I have far more than I'll ever be able to use anyway. It's too late (early?) to spend so much time deliberating; I hope this one fits the occasion sufficiently. Spoiler 1 Quote TTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
