Which one do you prefer, Shinra Bansho or Akatsuki Records?

For Touhou music listeners, which one of these artists do you find better?
I personally think Akatsuki Records is better cuz this one has more songs i love, but Shinra Bansho also makes some peak songs i like equally to Akatsuki Record's songs, but just less in amount.
 
I think it just depends for me. Both of them have songs I do and don't like. Akatsuki Records maybe, as they are also one of the reasons I got into Touhou (mainly because of a couple songs by them I took a liking to).
That said, I'm not sure I've listened to both of them enough to really make a sound decision.
They also both aren't among my "favorite" Touhou doujin musical circles. That would probably go more to ones such as Alstroemeria Records, Hachimitsu-Lemon, and Diverse System.
 
I like the average Akatsuki Records song more than I like the average Shinra-Bansho song, but man does Shinra-Bansho really just have some all-time greats. I'd really say that Shinra-Bansho has managed to achieve much greater heights than Akatuski has, but again there is a consistency to the quality of Akatsuki music that I really appreciate.
 
I think they both have their charm. Akatsuki Records got me properly into doujin music (I started out with IOSYS, but only the most popular songs at the time and/or whatever was big in osu), but I got captured by Necromantic and started listening to their albums. Lots of bangers.
Shinra Bansho have some really good songs too that I started listening to when I started to branch out more.
Circles like Shibayan Records have some pretty nice music too.
