On the ''Touhou'' side of things, while not as influential as circles like Music/AlstroemeriaRecords and Music/{{IOSYS}} (the latter two having brought ''Touhou'' doujin music into the mainstream with "Bad Apple!!" and "Marisa Stole the Precious Thing" respectively), SOUND HOLIC is still a major player in the ''Touhou'' doujin music industry for their diverse arrangements of ''Touhou'' themes, being very active in their album releases every year. They were also responsible for creating one of the first fan-made ''Touhou'' anime called "''Touhou Project Side Story: Memories of Stars''" in 2007, and co-developed the soundtrack for the 2015 ''Touhou'' fan game ''VideoGame/GensouSkydrift'' alongside circle [=StarDrops=] and composer U2 Akiyama from Creator/TwilightFrontier.

SOUND HOLIC is known for having a [[GenreRoulette very diverse coverage of music genres]] which includes {{Pop}}, {{Jazz}}, HeavyMetal, {{Rock}}, and {{Eurobeat}}. This diversity helps them stand out among other circles (that primarily focus on one or two genres) and keeps their album releases fresh each year. While they have done albums solely dedicated to a single genre on occasion (such as the rock albums done by guitarist [=709sec.=]), most of their album releases have genre diversity as their main selling point with several contributing guest musicians and vocalists from other circles.

!!SOUND HOLIC provides examples of:
* CompilationRerelease:
** The ''NANA HOLIC'' series is a compilation of Nana Takahashi songs.
** The ''REVIVAL BEST'' series is a compilation of 709sec. tracks.
** ''zikeez'' is a compilation of tracks arranged by zikee.
** ''SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO ~JAZZ ARRANGE SELECTION~'' is a compilation of jazz tracks from the ''SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO'' series.
* ConceptAlbum: The "Kanji Series" albums have a theme reflected in the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin kanji in their titles]]. It's usually one specific game, but a notable example is with the album ''-LAST BOSS-'' which is themed around the FinalBoss themes from all ''Touhou'' games released up to ''VideoGame/TouhouKanjudenLegacyOfLunaticKingdom'' (the then-recent ''Touhou'' game released by that point).
* CoversAlwaysLie: The characters on the cover are usually relevant to the album. The exceptions are the albums based on bosses from specific stages:
** The cover of ''LAST BOSS'' features Reimu and Marisa. Only Reimu has served as a final boss, and none of the themes on the album belong to her at all. At least both of the girls have ''fought'' most of the bosses represented on the album.
** The cover of ''EXTRA BOSS'' features Sakuya and Youmu. Neither has ever been an Extra boss, and they've only faced a few Extra Stage bosses each.
** The cover of ''FIFTH BOSS'' features Sanae and Aya. The latter has -- you guessed it -- never appeared as a stage 5 boss. At least Sanae's theme is arranged on the album.
* GreatestHitsAlbum: ''THE BEST SELECTION''
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming:
** Their ''SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO'' have titles on the form ''SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO ~[Japanese title]~''
** The Kanji Series and New Kanji Series both follow the pattern ''[kanji] -ROMANIZED KANJI-'':
*** For their one-game albums, the kanji is the third kanji of the game's title (i.e. the first that isn't 東方). If they later make another album based on the same game, the new title will use the third and fourth kanji. Examples: their ''VideoGame/TouhouFuujinrokuMountainOfFaith'' albums ''風 -KAZE-'' and ''風神 -FUUJIN-''.
*** In the "New Kanji Series", the kanji are the last name of a playable ''Touhou'' character.
*** The ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}'' parody album uses "烏賊", which means "squid".
*** One album uses "令和" (Reiwa). It's SOUND HOLIC's first all-new album in the Reiwa era.[[note]]They released two compilation albums at the same event.[[/note]]
*** Their boss-themed albums follow the basic pattern, but still stand out: they all use "強敵" ("Tough Enemy") for the kanji, and replace the romanization with "[STAGE] BOSS" (e.g. "FIFTH BOSS").
** All of their metal albums have "Metallic" or "Metallical" in the title.
** The Featuring 709sec. albums have titles that consist of two English words, e.g. ''Frozen Freezer'' and ''Chaos Bringer''.
* {{Instrumentals}}:
** The ''SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO'' albums are mostly or entirely instrumental. The compilation ''SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO ~JAZZ ARRANGE SELECTION~'' consists of instrumental {{jazz}} arrangements from this series.
** Their main ''Touhou'' albums start with an instrumental intro. Some of them contain more instrumentals later on as well.
** The ''TOHO PIANISM'' albums are entirely instrumental.
* LuckyCharmsTitle:
** The ''Fantasy★A La Mode'' album series.
** The song titles "LOVE ≒ HAPPY", "デタラメ妖精大戦争☆" and "渚のぷるぷる果実♡".
* RearrangeTheSong:
** Their ''Touhou'' arrangements, of course.
** The ''EUROBEAT HOLIC'' series features {{eurobeat}} remixes of some old songs.
* SelfTitledAlbum: The entire ''SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO'' series is partially eponymous.
* RemixAlbum:
** Most of their albums consist entirely of ''Touhou'' arrangements.
** ''ROCKMAN HOLIC'' is an album of ''VideoGame/MegaMan'' arrangements. It was released to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the franchise.
* XtremeKoolLetterz: The song title "W∀NTED".
* WorkInfoTitle: The title of ''SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO ~JAZZ ARRANGE SELECTION~'' lets you know that it's a compilation of {{jazz}} tracks. Similarly, the ''EUROBEAT HOLIC'' albums are {{eurobeat}} albums, and ''TOHO PIANISM'' is a series of piano albums.
