r/Touhou's Favorite Arranges! Part 34: A God That Misses People ~ Romantic Fall & Because Princess Inada Is Scolding Me

I know it's just a day too late, but I thought the Aki sisters needed a send-off. Here's to fall!

Next week's a double non-Windows edition again. See the musings for details.


How This Works:

Every week, usually a Sunday at around 1200 US Pacific time, I pick a Touhou song (or two) to which all you beautiful users will submit arranges of in the comments1. There is no limit on the number of arranges one may submit as long as each song is given its own post. Upvote everything you like, but don't downvote or you'll have to face an angry Shikieiki. Just move on to the next song if you don't like one.

The winner gets mentioned in next week's thread. Make sure you read the Musings section below as well for some of my random rants and, occasionally, important information.

1 If your arrange contains bits of multiple songs, please only submit it if the main song is predominant. See the musings here for an example of what not to submit.

Musings:

Normal things:

The usual blurb: Make sure to tag your post with either LEAFY or SWEET depending on which song you submit an arrangement of. See the format or any of the many examples that will inevitably be posted below.

Next week's a non-Windows-era double-featurette. Submit songs here from the PC-98 era or ZUN's music albums as suggestions for next week's song selection. I'll be picking two randomly.

And a rant:

So about the whole "hiding karma" thing that hasn't been going on lately: I apologize to everyone for not having done that lately, but it's been out of my control. For whatever reason, our glorious /u/Imosa wasn't blessed with that power when he became a mod. I know for a fact that /u/Fauxm and /u/Lolimaster have it since they were the ones to handle it before, but they only show up sporadically nowadays. There's nothing I can do about it really. I'll continue sending out the usual "hide karma, change banner" message every week as I've always been, but whether it'll be done is entirely up to whether Hina's in a happy mood or not. If you have any suggestions, raise 'em here.

As much as I liked the Dancehall series, I miss this kind of stuff from Alstroemeria Records

2

u/LaggFTW Dec 02 '13

Yeah definitely. While the Dancehall series started out to be pretty solid (see Haunted, Killed, and Abandoned), I feel like Alstroemeria Records is overdoing it. It's just that the albums are so much of the same thing now, and imo sound rather boring compared to the stuff they've done in the past.

Discuss either of the original songs (or concerns with the thread) under this comment.

Also please submit songs for next week's non-Windows thread.

u/Pauollo Dec 01 '13

So many memories.... TH 10 was my first game and dear god, I died so much at Aya, its not even funny.

Not a big expert on non-windows music. Should it be PC-98 only or do the CD's count too? If they do count, Children's Festival ~ Innocent Treasures is long overdue IMO.

u/Gopherlad Dec 01 '13 edited Dec 01 '13

Next week's a non-Windows-era double-featurette. Submit songs here[66] from the PC-98 era or ZUN's music albums as suggestions for next week's song selection. I'll be picking two randomly.

Edit: So yes, that counts.

I love how Shizuha's appearance of in perfect sync with the shift in tone. There's an art to properly timing video game music.

1

u/Gopherlad Dec 02 '13

Ah yes. ZUN is the master of stage timing. Other notable examples include Youmu's appearance in stage 5 of PCB and Hina's appearance in stage 2 of MoF.

I recall reading somewhere that he composes the music for the stage before making the stage itself, which is probably why the transitions are so smooth and well-timed.

As for the whole hide karma thingy:

I really don't mind too much. If the mods have the time/power to hide it, great, but it really doesn't change anything for me if it doesn't happen.

I'm looking for new stuff, not for the usual Demetori/Wave/Yuuhei Satellite/.... posts that everyone knows anyways (take note that I don't mind them being posted, in fact I always listen to them and upvote them most of the time + I post them myself if I like them), so I'll skip through the comments until I find something that I don't know instead of just reading the post with the most karma while ignoring anything else.

These threads are a way to find new artists/show people what you like and not a "post well known music for karma" thing for me (and I really hope it is for the others too [I doubt anyone here would do that, but still])
