1 | As ''Touhou Project''[='=]s sister series, ''Seihou'' features some nice music, some of which is composed by ZUN during ''Touhou Project'''s hiatus: |
2 | ---- |
3 | * From ''Shuusou Gyoku'': |
4 | ** The Stage 1 theme, [[https://youtu.be/QyDHN8zHJps False Strawberry]], is an energetic and upbeat theme that gives the feeling of a fun adventure. In ''Samidare'', it was [[https://youtu.be/Hao90hEfmrs arranged]] as an awesome and intense boss battle. |
5 | ** While the stage 2 theme, [[https://youtu.be/xbciqe83OPY "Illusory Imperial Capital"]] is somewhat weak compared to ZUN's usual fare, Shiina Fuuki on [=NicoVideo=] made [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm28662714 this breathtaking remix of it]]. |
6 | ** Gates has [[https://youtu.be/zVlqBfKSIFg "Firmament Army"]], which also got [[https://youtu.be/5XLv8DlXFLM a good Trance remix]] when he appeared in ''Samidare'''s Extra Stage. |
7 | ** The stage 4 theme, [[https://youtu.be/mKMdqkcQyR8 Illusionary Sputnik Night]], is decent, but [[https://youtu.be/2-iutZPojyw ZUN's remix of it]], from the CD included with the Grimoire of Marisa, is incredible. |
8 | ** Marie's theme [[https://youtu.be/kV-ewZiFots Mechanical Circus ~ Reverie"]] is a rather elegantly melancholy piece, albeit repetitive. ZUN's [[https://youtu.be/YP50vp-M8_Y arrangement]] for ''Dolls in Pseudo Paradise'' develops it into an amazing piece. |
9 | ** There's Erich's theme, [[https://youtu.be/demUHmy-uD0 "Magical Girl's Crusade"]], which is just plain awesome. ZUN arranged this one for Ghostly Field Club, and it's [[https://youtu.be/jEfucqDOtjY amazing]]. [[http://grooveshark.com/#!/s/Magic+Girl+Crusaders/2uqoH6?src=5 dBu's arrangement]] adds a delicious touch of pipe organs. |
10 | ** All ''three'' of (Boss) Vivit's themes, which includes: |
11 | *** "[[https://youtu.be/Taa60KOjb6g Dream Machine ~ Innocent Power".]] |
12 | *** "[[https://youtu.be/RHonR4uGa6s Illusory Science ~ Doll's Phantom"]] (which was arranged by ZUN as "[[https://youtu.be/BcCJwVf8oXQ Phantasm Machine ~ Phantom Factory"]].) |
13 | *** "[[https://youtu.be/CZAw1qTrgbY Girl's Divinity ~ Pandora's Box".]] [[https://youtu.be/ZZ_yUJK-JZ8 Remaster here.]] |
14 | ** The ending theme, [[https://youtu.be/SRbwQahZBsE "Herselves"]], is quite possibly the most beautiful ending theme ZUN ever composed. The group Seventh Heaven MAXION managed to create a just as epic [[https://youtu.be/dHgqf6WvHl8 vocal arrangement]] of the track. |
15 | ** The first game's extra stage features a guest appearance by the two main characters of ''Franchise/TouhouProject''. Marisa, as the first boss, is fought with [[https://youtu.be/9KqVdSnuEWQ "Witches' Ball ~ Magus"]] running in the background. It was [[https://youtu.be/MYjhYxQOwZU arranged for IaMP]], and got [[https://youtu.be/QTgQzv_16Xc made all the more awesome]] by dBu. |
16 | ** Reimu, as the second boss, goes all out to the tune of [[https://youtu.be/xFovQWYiJEw "Dichromatic Butterfly ~ Ancients"]] which got reworked by ZUN for ''Dolls in Pseudo Paradise'' as [[https://youtu.be/e9j_yThRVik "Dichromatic Butterfly ~ Red & White"]] and got featured as a [[https://youtu.be/f3Nj46pSz_c jazz mix]] in ''Hisoutensoku''. |
17 | ** On top of that Music/{{IOSYS}} discovered that it made an '''awesome''' [[https://youtu.be/WadpQXFbIIY festival]] [[https://youtu.be/pFmvFA_cKAE dance]] tune. |
18 | * From ''Kioh Gyoku'': |
19 | ** [[https://youtu.be/4oe62MZuD24 "Velvet Maiden Battle ~ Velvet Battle"]], VIVIT's theme in ''Kioh Gyoku'', is nothing to scoff at. |
20 | ** [[https://youtu.be/J0R6uIzUbaw Castle Explorer -in the Sky-]] [sic], Gates' theme. Despite ZUN's claims in the comments that "It sounds so girlish it's almost scary", it sounds like Gates during peace time. Surprisingly enough, [[https://youtu.be/NmKQoLppruY the MIDI version sounds even better on the intended hardware]]. |
21 | ** Erich's theme, [[https://youtu.be/9XSvPXSofO0 "My Maid, Sweet Maid]], a beautiful and melancholy piece. The violin solo at the end is simply wonderful. |
22 | ** Muse's theme, [[https://youtu.be/kBReFar3YGw "Enigmatic Doll ~ God Knows"]]. ZUN arranged it for Dolls in Pseudo Paradise [[https://youtu.be/4t3_YolD4GU as well]]. |
23 | ** Yuuka Kazami makes a cameo, resulting in her getting a new theme, [[https://youtu.be/9NUT7GI-yqY "Lovely Mound of Cherry Blossoms ~ Flower of Japan"]]. ZUN arranged this in ''[[https://youtu.be/N9xp7YxFvhc Dolls in Pseudo Paradise]]''. |
24 | * From ''Banshiryuu'': |
25 | ** The stage 3 themes of each version are both excellent. From the C67 version, we have [[https://youtu.be/xx-zGshGzN8 "Overtake!"]], a very catchy and lively theme with a unqiue ''flamenco'' influence. From the C74 version, we have [[https://youtu.be/4nKpxF__hEE "Finally Reaching the Warp Gate"]], a much more energetic theme. |
26 | ** [[https://youtu.be/WdVzDDctPGA "Duel in Another Dimesnsion"]], the second theme of Hirano/Vivit-r, is a very intimidating and exciting battle, and a massive improvement on their first themes. |
27 | ** Both of [[FinalBoss Yuitia's themes]] are fantastic. [[https://youtu.be/vfFbFr7lyKQ "Struggle for Only Existence"]] is a great theme that gives a feeling of desperation. Her second theme, [[https://youtu.be/gJuIRucytTc "trans--"]], despite being hard to hear in-game due to the sound effects, is a mysterious and menacing theme, fitting for a possessed phantom like Yuitia. |
28 | ** Morgan's theme, [[https://youtu.be/NLnvfFyrnVo "Hot Cake Laboratory"]], is relaxed and happy in contrast to the other extra boss themes, making her boss fight very exciting. |
29 | ** Muse's theme, [[https://youtu.be/nyVWTZxq-Xg "Muse"]], is very majestic and menacing, perfect for someone as powerful as Muse. |
