1 | ->I was going to use this as the extra stage theme. But I thought the extra stage song should be a little lighter, so I cried and cried and threw it out. |

The PC-98 games used [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_modulation_synthesis FM synthesis]] for music, the same kind of synthesis used by the Platform/SegaGenesis and thousands of arcade games. |

10 | [[folder:Highly Responsive to Prayers]] |
11 | * The very first ''Touhou'' game might've been [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness lacking]] in [[BulletHell danmaku]], but it wasn't devoid of awesome music. Check out "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wlp7WLGJZ9E Eastern Strange Discourse]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x21zqGC4mOc Magic]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_LJcQfaOD0 Mirror]]". |
12 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_U-h0M7vb0 ZUN's arrangement of Eastern Strange Discourse]] and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ThIAMywETg earlier SC-88Pro version]]. |
13 | ** For those who prefer ZUN's modern style, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzisBTt8FoY here's the remastered version]] of "Magic Mirror". |
14 | ** The same for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXGlqI9PEXI Eastern Strange Discourse]]. |
15 | ** When it comes to Eurobeat arranges, Mortimer (another alias of Jessa Stebbins) is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6Pg8eFYtHU No Guardian Angel]]. |
16 | * Going back a little, we have "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5QfOOtp31I A Sacred Lot]]", the main menu theme and the very first touhou music in the series (from the players' perspective). Nagisa's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8u6z_L6EHS0 Melty LOVE]]" is a Eurobeat take on both the title and ending themes. Since it combines ALL of Reimu's direct and adjacent themes, putting [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ht6Y032aToE this masterpiece]] by Hari Music at the very beginning seems appropriate. |
17 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzOUqOCRXOs Eternal]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxgC-ZNhfco Shrine Maiden]]", the very first stage music, shows how ZUN was a master from the very beginning. |
18 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvfC2iYjkNw ZUN's arrangement of Eternal Shrine Maiden]] and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ThIAMywETg earlier SC-88Pro version]]. |
19 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oB10qSyNZc TAMusic expectedly uses it]] to create another nexus of emotion, and circle Kissing the Mirror gives the theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IV7tS7Yjidk a very kickass classical rock treatment]]. |
20 | ** This [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yk-B1uYbLKE piano arrangement]] manages to be extremely similar to the original tune yet is very calming and beautiful, outlining the sorrowful impressions of the melody such as nostalgia, melancholy, sadness and regrets. |
21 | ** [=EastNewSound=] made a beautiful [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2j7wACjqU6E rocking song]] out of it. |
22 | ** And RD-Sounds turns the already melancholic theme into a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aaB1aBRSlc beautiful arrangement]] that must be heard to be believed. |
23 | ** A-One throws you an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygNhqwq9WVA Eternal Party]] on ''Toho Eurobeat Vol.10''. |
24 | * Shingyoku's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=572oLBUdaXE The Positive and Negative]]", the first boss theme in the series. Here's a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqRu1TfncE4 nice remix]]. |
25 | * The first set of Makai stages has "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keg90dxeJBQ Highly Responsive to Prayers]]" and its probably one of the few tracks where [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PC5M_hgAOsQ Akyuu's/TH 05 music test version]] is genuinely better. |
26 | * Yuugen Magan's and Mima's shared boss theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6QMRKjnFVw Angel's Legend]]". |
27 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-ae3Y6ujdw Remastered]] version is quite nice. |
28 | ** As is the ''Toho Eurobeat'' version, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umhyyEIpECE Land of Dreams]]". |
29 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCR46xe-98M Oriental Magician]]", Elis' stage (well, set of stages) theme. |
30 | ** Here's the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohyphK4M4w0 Remastered version]]. |
31 | ** Platform/PC98 arranges are quite rare as it is, but utter masterpieces like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A98nbzXBG5Q Tutti Sound's rendition]] are even rarer. |
32 | * The second set of Hell stages has "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_6OzOV_AX4 Blade of Banishment]]". |
33 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeMrru0Ghoc The Legend of KAGE]]", the theme of the final Makai stages. |
34 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62OGXPzQbdc ZUN's arrangement of The Legend of KAGE]] |
35 | ** It was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OScqVLbMPks remixed]] in Concealed the Conclusion. |
36 | ** [=TAMusic=] gives us this [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdQZVyFoo7s remix]]. |
37 | * Hell route final boss Konngara's theme, the "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esoCtl_Yga8 Swordsman of a Distant Star]]". |
38 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR_yeo-KmvA Remastered]] arrangement. |
39 | ** The [[http://www.akaipro.com/ewi4000s Akai EWI]] (Electronic Wind Instrument, aka "Power Flute") [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZvgb-XeKJo remix.]] |
40 | * Still, nothing from the first game quite beats [[OneWingedAngel Sariel]]'s two themes, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzt87vI6YT0 Now, Until the Moment You Die]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZaFmz8XvrM Civilization of Magic]]". You get the feeling that she... he... whatever was intended to be the absolute final boss of the game. |
41 | ** And [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72vRjBms_9s here's a version]] with power metal and vocals. |
42 | ** Music/AlstroemeriaRecords [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PC5jquXoKQ does their techno/vocal thing with "Civilization of Magic"]]. |
43 | ** Now we have here [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VX9M7TXJ1Y a remix]] of "Now, Until the Moment You Die" that makes it sound like a church mass music. |
44 | ** The one by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZUAtvyRdvQ =a-TTTempo=]] proves able to hold its own as well. |
45 | ** "Where do you go when you die in Hell? I guess when I get to you, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXbmD43_E64 Time Will Tell]]". (T. Stebbins AKA Odyssey.) |
46 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzYNAMeHjsg Iris]], the nice ending theme. Made awesome with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zh0wrU_dENk this remastered version]]. It gets this rare [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9RTDm9GN2c remix]]. Then there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5j33bKQLjo ZUN's arrangement of Iris.]] |
47 | * When ZUN made ''Mystic Square'', he included all of the music from previous games in the music test, except the original music from this game. Instead, he re-arranged them. ''Akyu's Untouched Score'' uses this version of the soundtrack. |
48 | [[/folder]] |
49 | |
50 | [[folder:The Story of Eastern Wonderland]] |
51 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omovtwa9xtY Hakurei - Eastern Wind]]" is good, but usually ignored in favor of unused track below. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZk4Qr9Ze1E Its remix]] from ''Concealed the Conclusion'' may help change this. Also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGrHRxBvqQw ZUN's arrangement of Hakurei - Eastern Wind]] and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ybOrz-5rAU in-game MIDI version]]. |
52 | * Rika's theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfBwznnUVHs She's in a Temper!]]", plus the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjKkCyjbQ_o Remastered]] version, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YaSwTSVMes the in-game MIDI version.]] |
53 | * Another gem from ''Story of an Eastern Wonderland'' would be the Stage 2 theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQgffFQwwSs End of Daylight]]". Alstroemeria Records did such a [[http://youtu.be/e0pp2ebXT9k cool remix]] for it, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0pp2ebXT9k several]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v__Alk2Vo4A well]]-[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nSltdASVX0 done]] {{fanvid}}s have been made for it! Try also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51_t3agl5Js the in-game MIDI version]]. |
54 | * Meira's theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiQjJvI0jcM Power of Darkness]]", and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ihe9yzz_3Dk The in-game MIDI version]]. |
55 | * Here is "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJt8Ngw0sZQ World of Empty Dreams]]", the feel of which you can guess from its title. A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AB2Uhz4e8Q Remastered]] version, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=688aCsfnfso the in-game MIDI version]]. |
56 | * An intense track for the battle with the Five Magic Stones, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuuUNhHRsrk Bet on Death]]. Fitting for the only enemy to have scared Reimu. Try also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ut5D3uVyXDU the in-game MIDI version.]] |
57 | * The stage 4 music, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5BimnggJQs Himorogi, Burn in Violet]]". An epic tune... which everyone refuses to acknowledge because it's obviously a ripoff of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'''s boss theme. Because, you know, the first few bars have a vaguely similar melody. Somebody did a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFRWTnZ9UKU mashup]]. There's also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dTBY4kFeMU the in-game MIDI version]]. |
58 | * One of Marisa's original themes, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pax6R6We9VQ Love-Coloured Magic]]". It's so good, her current {{leitmotif}} Love-coloured Master Spark is a ''remix'' of it. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmIFrcZebK0 ZUN's arrangement of Love-Coloured Magic]] and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbrLg6lRfC4 in-game MIDI version]]. |
59 | * The Stage 5 (Final stage in this game) theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZE-nRW3nhg Eastern Sealing Magic Record ~ A Phantom's Boisterous Dance]]". And [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9Z8Q6lI5wo the in-game MIDI version]]. |
60 | * Mima's boss theme from ''Story of Eastern Wonderland'', "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFmL_6xVpdY Complete Darkness]]", is very dramatic and suited to her epic fight with Reimu. |
61 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOFo9PWksLk ZUN's arrangement of Complete Darkness]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtKegQ7XOCY the in-game MIDI version]]. |
62 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppxvE7b9KjU Check out]] what Alstromeria Records does to it! |
63 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6u8lulatEVc Complete Loudness]] rocks all the way out. |
64 | ** South of Heaven [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gssXIdAOZ0 delivers the epic]]. |
65 | ** Want some metal? Then the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLVexvfw110 Iron Attack]] rendition should be the thing. |
66 | * The Extra stage theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RBiCUj-1YY Extra Love]]", does a good job of conveying a raid on a mechanical fortress. One of the Gods of Touhou's arranges, NEO of Tutti Sound, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blxZlv--AiU put his hands on "Extra Love"]]. The result is staggering. Try also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRGK-7kgEvo the in-game MIDI version]]. |
67 | * The Extra boss theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGAmyzIeolg The Tank Girl's Dream]]", reuses the same short motif over and over again in different keys for most of the song, but the intro is unique and well-done. There's also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3t24tPYoLo The in-game MIDI version]]. |
68 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVVdCuHr2U8 Hakurei Shrine Grounds]]", the awesome, but unfortunately unused, stage 1 theme. And the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hvh_bg1Z0uc Remastered]] version. |
69 | * While the ''Story of Eastern Wind'' is less a direct remake and more ''Story of Eastern Wonderland'' with Windows characters replacing the old ones, it has some nice remixes of ''[=SoEW=]'', like the ones of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKkPLjSAa5k Sunfall]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrLBPINhnVk Himorogi, Burn in Violet]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0T6ccejOk4Q Love-Coloured Magic]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_x8oGbumqo Complete Darkness]]". |
70 | [[/folder]] |
71 | |
72 | [[folder:Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream]] |
73 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbDazHqhNkU A Dream Transcending Space-Time]]", the nice menu theme. And the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gOXOqOCjjQ Remastered]] version. |
74 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rg6Gz7YcOg Selection]]", an intense theme for character selection that will pump your adrenaline when choosing who are you going to play as. Despite Touhou PC-98's obscurity, this theme is regarded by fans as one of the best character selection themes in the series. |
75 | * Reimu's classic theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SytVxfhN2bU Mystic Oriental Love Consultation]]" from ''Phantasmagoria of Dim Dream''. Both fighting games [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbk1j_IptSY have it]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nBmH70LVk4 remixed]] and they still come out awesome. The ''Hisoutensoku'' version rocks out by only playing when the one-shot kill [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Musou Tensei]] comes out in the last round. As they say, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_A_8h3EB94 you are already dead.]] |
76 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hj7IC6ZjGrc Reincarnation]]", [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome Mima]]'s theme. |
77 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93_bnOj63xs ZUN's arrangement of Reincarnation]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKLYk40ve24 the earlier SC-88Pro version]] |
78 | ** Unlucky Morpheus does a really rocking vocal rendition of Reincarnation with "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P37WImGse00 No Grudge Any More]]". |
79 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxl2v7efKAQ Alstroemeria Records]] did a song of it with haunting vocals. |
80 | ** Silver Forest's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9esyApHVqQc Holy My Reincarnation]]" turns "Reincarnation" into something Creator/NanaMizuki might bust out for ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha''. |
81 | ** C-CLAYS also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obDwJraSKXQ give it a go]]. |
82 | ** Two [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQWxwS0gIq4 remastered]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ie1zBZS-64 versions]]. |
83 | ** Someone mixed it with "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-UQqtFKK4E Love-Coloured Master Spark]]". |
84 | ** Here's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsJLTA7qCg0 one]] from ''Pocket Wars Evolution''. |
85 | ** Also a really [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8g5wPf8axA ominous remix]] by Tinzuka. |
86 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndxKv2YEp2w This remix]] is breathtakingly beautiful, mixing feelings of sadness and majesty. It really makes you wish you could listen to it from a real orchestra. |
87 | ** Lastly, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGKqdUdGNNs Rei of ORIENS]] sends us off to the next world with his magnificent arrange. |
88 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiIH-l8bixg And another very soothing one]], this time by higuma. |
89 | * Marisa's theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXN_Fld0gYE Dim.Dream]]". And the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMIMoWB-H0g Remastered]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zA5iK7ttkRs versions]]. |
90 | * Ellen's theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9ArMcZ_i_k Tabula Rasa ~ The Empty Girl]]". |
91 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj0_J4FepaA ZUN's arrangement of Tabula Rasa ~ The Empty Girl]]. |
92 | ** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6MOBkWvVNY Crying for the Moon]]" has a very jazzy and mature feel to it, sort-of-fitting to the never-aging child-witch. |
93 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nip1bZXMVm0 This remastered version]] is alright for the first two and a half minutes, but then it picks up a familiar accompanying melody... |
94 | * Kotohime's theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2eoPfTG3xQ Maniacal Princess]]". Arranges for "Maniacal Princess" are quite rare, but there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPmBLSNu3tQ this funky techno number]] and [[http://youtu.be/_y27Q6bWlAc this lively Windows-game-style cover]]. |
95 | * Remixes for Rikako Asakura's theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itsWMDO8-Ss Visionary Game ~ Dream War]]" are even rarer. |
96 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbjMJm2dGLE Kana Anaberal's]] haunting "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7kVi_WCB2w Vanishing Dream ~ Lost Dream]]"! Her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccYC1ea2pHc theme]] is very spooky and sad, and shows off ZUN's ability to awaken emotions within his fans. |
97 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIbuwjDLvLE ZUN's arrangement of Vanishing Dream ~ Lost Dream]] |
98 | ** Of special note is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWJx_48xA2c this]] rendition from the album ''prima''. |
99 | ** Despite not personally appearing in the fangame itself, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Am2ZYews6eA her theme in Touhou Mother]] is quite nice. |
100 | ** And here one made by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XW63WT6rIuI Takase of the Magnum Opus]] circle. |
101 | ** There's also some very good Hardcore Techno for the fans of it, produced by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kdk_Hz-S-vA chiArosCuro of Black Onyx]]. |
102 | ** NJK Records' ''Toho Euro Flash Vol. 2'' gives us [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdy9dYjDzEk Endless Night]], by DJ Command featuring 3L. |
103 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_Y3-pJUvGw Decisive Magic Battle! ~ Fight it out!]]", the theme for the decision match, before moving on to meeting the penultimate boss. |
104 | * Yumemi's assistant Chiyuri has a pretty cool theme of her own, and it's called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJucbV0BSfA Sailor of Time]]". Cue the [[Franchise/SailorMoon Pluto/Setsuna]] jokes. |
105 | * The midboss demo theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUmLAHCY0Vs Hitouitsu Mahou Sekai Ron]], Disunified Field Theory of Magic. |
106 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-KX2Ki0LN8 Love of Magical Chimes]]" may be short, but it gets you geared up for the big boss dual |
107 | ** It gets a lot of techno remixes. Here's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRp03ClmD2c one]] |
108 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aB2WCBGyYsY ZUN's updated version]]. |
109 | * ''Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream'' also brings us Yumemi's theme, "Strawberry Crisis!!". |
110 | ** [[http://youtu.be/BCvuK1wKQMA Touhou, if featured in a Hollywood action sequence.]] |
111 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwb2qUE63z4 remix by dBu]]. |
112 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxqiZUX0bMQ Alstroemeria Records' C87 Remix is hella catchy]] |
113 | * The nighttime ending music, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhKQcqykybo Eternal Full Moon]]". The ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXQ1ztK4Z8A Concealed the Conclusion]]'' remix shows why the old scores will never die. Then there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFD039WrVKs ZUN's arrangement]]. |
114 | * The staff roll theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FW5Dm97Jn70 Maple Dream...]]". Few people have noticed that the credits theme for ''Imperishable Night'', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEo0KHeg9gQ "Eternal Dream ~ Mystic Maple"]], is a remix of "Maple Dream". |
115 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9uq7v8O8Bs Winds of Time]]", an unused theme which didn't fit anyone in the game. And the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTl0v9JBCGg Remastered]] version. |
116 | * Another CutSong, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtjrcQMLgC4 Starbow Dream]]". If one listens closely one can hear parts of both "Sleeping Terror" and "Cute Devil~Innocence". |
117 | * And yet another CutSong, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VPXSZhnlrY Phantasmagoria]]". Short but pretty little theme. |
118 | [[/folder]] |
119 | |
120 | [[folder:Lotus Land Story]] |
121 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMhCsPqsmR0 Gensokyo ~ Lotus Land Story]]", the menu theme that sounds like it was lifted from the final stage. |
122 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmIUeByDYHE Witching Dream]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4tTdu01z5U Selene's Light]]", the Stage 1 themes for Reimu and Marisa respectively. Try also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cI0BrX214o4 ZUN's arrangement]]. |
123 | * Orange's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78_I6sGfNCQ Decoration Battle]]" is proof that even an ordinary youkai can have extraordinary music. |
124 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRTAgMkUscI This version]] didn't make the game, but showed up in ''Akyuu's Untouched Score''. |
125 | ** And because IOSYS apparently just couldn't pass up the opportunity for a {{Pun}}, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KnTDb2qZoY Bad Apple & Good Orange]]". |
126 | * The Stage 2 theme for the Lake of Blood, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxjV8k0P9aY Break the Sabbath]]". Tutti Sound turned the epic up to eleven with "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNUL8PVkcfw The Abyss]]". |
127 | * Kurumi's theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdvYffA9BdY Scarlet Symphony ~ Scarlet Phoneme]]", is dreadfully simple (a single 14-second motif repeated over and over in different keys), but catchy as hell. ''Time Limit ~ Momentary'' has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJD2wv-VEK0 nice jazzy combination]] of it with the aforementioned "Decoration Battle". Like Elly, Gensou Shoujou Taisen gives us [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYl_r69D4jA Scarlet Symphony ~ Scarlet Phoneme ~ Break the Sabbath]] |
128 | * "Music/BadApple" ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Su8UOs0SFA the original!]]), Elly's Stage 3 theme from ''Lotus Land Story'', and Music/AlstroemeriaRecords's collaborative [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lNZ_Rnr7Jc vocal arrange]] featuring nomico. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkgK8eUdpAo And this version is a must watch for Touhou fans]]. And a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6e7l2vjuOVA three-for-one]] version. |
129 | ** [[http://youtu.be/2PHtDx6ryRo A rendition by Marasy8]], based on the Alstroemeria Records remix. Utterly amazing. He revisited the song a few years later, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hr7uwOp0Yck putting a new spin on this encore performance]]. |
130 | ** It even comes in a gorgeous [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Okxciv_HG4I piano version]]. |
131 | ** The album ''Time Limit ~Momentary~'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjsm8fRqyLY features another strong arrange of it]]. |
132 | ** The remixers at Website/NicoNicoDouga did a ''lot'' of "Bad Apple!!" remixes. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N3i40X04Cg This]] one is done in ''a capella''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex64t8YWhTo As for this one]], if you didn't know it was a nico production, you might mistake it for an ''official'' ZUN arrange! |
133 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kl6nkH1C9q0 Here]] is an ''awesome'' remix of the Alstromeria Records remix of "Bad Apple!!" uploaded by Something Unreal. |
134 | ** Even Creator/CristinaVee sang [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owFulRTR1Sc a cover of it]]! Nearly ten years later, she would team up with [=RichaadEB=] for a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Xz4NV0zsbY badass metal cover]], then come full circle two years after that with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhClc6X1NIQ a Japanese version of said cover]]. |
135 | ** And then there's this excellent but hard-to-search-for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qYlJD96euc male and female English duet version]]. |
136 | ** And now, with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJbJwlM70nA a mashup of every appearing character's theme]]. |
137 | ** Or do you maybe like it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx76YPgZviE more traditional?]] |
138 | ** How about a quartet between [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyjpeSsARjM ocarina, violin, electric guitar, and drums?]] |
139 | ** Or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jru3YJcZK5w Think of You]], the Eurobeat version? |
140 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ssaiwGJjsE Koakuma Ringo]], Yuuhei Satellite's take on the original Bad Apple!!. |
141 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E44s5sruzCk Little devil]], sung by the same vocalist but with charming English lyrics. |
142 | *** And the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbOhc7McMbY Eurobeat remix]] of Koakuma Ringo, which one probably shouldn't listen to while driving on their daily commute. |
143 | *** Active [=NEETs'=] orchestra would later collaborate with senya in a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kIK2HP2qLA brass-heavy cover]] of the remix. |
144 | ** The Alstroemeria arrangement [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFUCjnoMAhM mashes up surprisingly well with the Squid Sisters' theme]] from ''Franchise/{{Splatoon}}''. |
145 | ** There's also an absolutely awesome [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBtTL_IsZ5k orchestral version,]] courtesy of Cloudjumper, which itself has been in development for close to a year. Time well spent. |
146 | ** What does Music/SiIvaGunner do with his Special Anniversary (Hi-Quality) Rip of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-uNn9kenjk Bad Apple (Akyuu's Untouched Score Version)]]? Why, he turns the Alstroemeria Record version into a PC-98 chiptune. It is 100% faithful to the PC-98's audio chip, and sounds absolutely lovely. |
147 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHKQ2ym81zY This]] Eurobeat rendition of Bad Apple is based on the original chiptune, and mashes in elements from the Alstromeria version for a fast-paced and drift-worthy number. |
148 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVbA2EKGYBs This version]] consists of only banjo, mandolin, flute and a drum and bears resemblance to the traditional sounding [=ShouRinka=] version, but also has some elements of the Nomico-Alstromeria version. |
149 | * Elly's boss theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR63JPBeWzQ Spirit Battle ~ Perdition Crisis]]" gets no love, being [[OvershadowedByAwesome overshadowed by Bad Apple]]. |
150 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lF6BNVjyBvo ZUN's arrangement of Spirit Battle ~ Perdition Crisis]]. |
151 | ** ''Gensou Shoujou Taisen'' (a ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' based fangame) gives us [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_RLrydScnI this remix]]. |
152 | * Reimu's best-known theme, "Maiden's Capriccio", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6r_826wNorw got its catchy start in PC-98]]. |
153 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nua2Yo2R1Z0 ZUN's arrangement of Maiden's Capriccio.]] |
154 | ** And [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDvDhZxZUKk here's an exquisite orchestrated update by kiyoma.]] |
155 | ** Here's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6p41SQb_Vg Hachimitsu-Lemon's relaxing arrangement]], mixed with a bit of Spring Lane from the later games. |
156 | * Marisa's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kaXK4ab95M Vessel of Stars ~ Casket of Star]]" is the counterpart to the original "Maiden's Capriccio". Also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pd645reohZ8 ZUN's arrangement.]] |
157 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1K_OOnViIt4 Alice Maestra]]" (which has ''nothing'' to do with Alice at all) plays in the stage 4 (and where Reimu and Marisa fight it out). |
158 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uqcz_I6Pr_Q ZUN's arrangement of Alice Maestra]]. |
159 | ** The awesome [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PWRLcZVLLU EWI arrangement]]. |
160 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfFxOusryxs Sound Holic]] and 709sec. add a lot of awesome to an otherwise overlooked theme. |
161 | ** Sound Holic gave this song a second go around, this time with Nana Takahashi's vocals. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kc5YI7qypVM The result]] speaks for itself with the title: "Quod Erat Demonstrandum". |
162 | ** Demetori's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLXYNVlYvfA amazing rock remix]] is truly a masterpiece. |
163 | ** What happens when you make a remix to Alice Maestra the backdrop to a combination attack showcasing a boatload of Reimu and Marisa's spellcards bombarding a poor victim? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ef9KINYFqsE "A Single Blow for the Fate of All Gensokyo"]], a resoundingly heroic theme for Marisa and Reimu's combo attack, True Trichromatic Lotus Butterfly. |
164 | * Yuuka's original theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnyH-V6PuYs Sleeping Terror]]", the Stage 5 Boss theme. Sinister and majestic, very appropriate. |
165 | ** A very appropriate [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJ5mYOlXqYc remix]] that captures the song's air perfectly. |
166 | ** The fierce and hopeless sounding "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-5lSz9r0H8 Faint Dream ~ Inanimate Dream]]" (Stage 6 Boss theme). |
167 | ** And "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vf1pHbFUkEE Lotus Love]]" (Stage 5 theme). |
168 | ** And "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeFT6TafSW8 Dream Land]]" (Stage 6 theme). Yes, Yuuka has four themes in ''Lotus Land Story''. Four and a half if you count the latter parts of Gengetsu's theme. Bump it up to five if you count the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTOhEWM2kz8 first version]] of "Faint Dream" that remained unused in the final game and sports an even more sinister melody. |
169 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWv9LIkRHCM ZUN's arrangement of Faint Dream ~ Inanimate Dream]] |
170 | *** O-Life Japan tried their hand at [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0F93Vr6jvVY "Faint Dream"]], too. |
171 | *** A wonderful [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgDrYGaG0Tg orchestrated version]] made by a Nico Nico artist. |
172 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_FVXXAJ7kc A wonderful piano version of]] "Faint Dream". |
173 | *** "Inanimate Dream" translates awful well as a memorable opening, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8gIo8_uM9k Yu-mu]]", for Kinema Kan 2nd Curtain through Kishida Kyoudan & the Akeboshi Rockets. |
174 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EDL1L67NpA This]] arrangement of the unused version of "Faint Dream" rather nicely captures the aggressiveness of the battle. |
175 | *** Nana Takahashi from SOUND HOLIC rocks out with "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVzWIzUdGAI Dream Refrain]]", with the circle releasing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2U7cSwHNsU an equally awesome PV]]. |
176 | *** Younoumi, part of IOSYS, combines [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJj0D6JyiPg Sleeping Terror with Plastic Mind (further down the list)]]. The result is very much awesome. |
177 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pa13NR7wPys SOUND HOLIC]] delivers again - this time with 709sec.'s help. |
178 | * The Extra Stage theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OKt9K23I1g The Inevitable Forbidden Game]]" just swells with being a light hearted silly trek through untold barrages of bullets. |
179 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1poYSjKfWLs ZUN's arrangement of The Inevitable Forbidden Game]]. |
180 | * Mugetsu's theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTDE3Y2n-pI Illusion of a Maid ~ Icemilk Magic]]". With a remastered version [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4plBCYC5bmU here]]. Enjoy. |
181 | * And for those who can't deal with Gengetsu Rape Time, here's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HymHWSc--sY Cute Devil ~ Innocence]]". |
182 | ** [=FactoryNoise=]'s and AG's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CArI_vFIiZk remix of it]] is supremely well done, while being quite faithful to the song. |
183 | ** And Tutti Sound did it again. From the same album as NEO's take on Oriental Magician comes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7i184OkCuE this masterpiece.]] |
184 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BfJrr_O4p4 Dreamy Pilot]]", the unused stage 4 theme. Here are the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOqOcGcdLe8 Remastered]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPtgiCrtMgg versions]], and a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmtDGQ88q0k Remix]]. |
185 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkL8UKsMFWY Magical Shop of Raspberry]]", an unused Extra Stage tune from ''Lotus Land Story'', gets a rockin' makeover from Music/{{IOSYS}} for "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdVZ_xCAm7A Futatsu no Tsubasa]]". [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oxji3gATmAE Another group, known as kimino-museum, has also acknowledged]] this [[DummiedOut lost track's]] greatness. |
186 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xd4svwo6dYg A bunch of players in the]] {{MMORPG}} Mabinogi have done a rendition of the Music/{{IOSYS}} arrange. |
187 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CM1sohWm2DM Once remastered]], this track becomes even more haunting and impressive. [[http://youtu.be/Ozr8_brHXXI Another Remaster]] by マドレーヌ gives it a more UFO-styled feel. |
188 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5OE0Q5wYiI Arcadian Dream]]", the staff roll theme. The unused staff roll theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrW4twqERqQ Crescent Dream]]", is not bad either. |
189 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4n9pYstX8s Border Land]]", the unused stage 6 theme, is catchy as just about every other theme here. |
190 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeZG6pwMSbo Days]]", a rather melancholy theme for the bad ending. |
191 | [[/folder]] |
192 | |
193 | [[folder:Mystic Square]] |
194 | * The Menu theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLYx8XBm6Jo Wondrous Romance ~ Mystic Square]]", which sets the tone for the rest of the game, and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=781JdGkZO6Y Remastered]] version. |
195 | * The Stage 1 theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qq6JSOhddo Dream Express]]". |
196 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dInQZ_o41xE ZUN's arrangement of Dream Express]]. |
197 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95KTq2ubm1s Remastered]] version. |
198 | ** ''Concealed the Conclusion'' gives us an epic arrangement of it named "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug335GttDnM Dream Express ~ Red and White]]", mixing it with "Witching Dream" and "Dichromatic Lotus Butterfly ~ Red and White". |
199 | * Sara's theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZC8RWe-Uig Magic Formation ~ Magic Square]]". And the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2h_DQAyI_DE Remastered]] version. |
200 | * The Stage 2 theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9-UdiZI-zY Dimension of Reverie]]". |
201 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_z6w0u9g5c ZUN's arrangement of Dimension of Reverie]] |
202 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWi6INm2PFE Remastered]] version. |
203 | * Luize's theme "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoV5PMxw3Uo Spiritual Heaven]]". |
204 | ** A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKq8XEqnEfc Rock Arrangement]]. |
205 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cJU4Hn8OK0 Sound Holic delivers]] a great Hardrock blend beetween Dimension of Reverie and Spiritual Heaven. |
206 | * All of Alice's awesome themes: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMaqhhrZkvc Romantic Children]]" (Stage 3), "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijituRe039w Plastic Mind]]" (Stage 3 Boss), "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0jbvJjTXPw Alice in Wonderland]]" of course (Extra Stage), and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B9umDBE-78 The Grimoire of Alice]]" (Extra Stage Boss theme). |
207 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI10yKmtKmI ZUN's arrangements of Romantic Children]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxLnriYZRFA Alice in Wonderland]] |
208 | ** Speaking of which, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_b4JrVU4fo FlanGoY's flute solo]] of "Alice in Wonderland" does the original justice, and almost sounds as though ''Alice herself'' was playing it. |
209 | ** An awesome remix of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNDqjVTVKMo "The Grimoire of Alice"]] done for a fan-game called ''Mystic Chain''. |
210 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIJoKqagqBU TAMusic]] takes their violin to "Alice in Wonderland", and weaves glorious emotion into it. |
211 | ** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHYJ9T4zZAI Le Cirque de Sept Couleurs]]", as done by Unlucky Morpheus, is ''amazing''. |
212 | ** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SO0xo8Go824 Hisoutensoku]]"[='=]s remix of "The Grimoire of Alice" is pretty awesome. |
213 | ** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1SU4bJ4WS8 Artificial Children]]" by IOSYS is a very haunting remix of "Romantic Children". |
214 | ** Have some piano versions of both "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXavfDiOgcU Romantic Children]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSpxN1v81l0 Alice in Wonderland]]". |
215 | ** Rei of Oriens delivers the awesome with "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWuZFRDTdlE Alice in Wonderland]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXc-Fa_Wv9g Sealed Sword]]", the latter being an epic orchestral arrange of "The Grimoire of Alice". |
216 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XQzqB7G910 These]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7bAQC-epjA remastered]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SO6Db2H6ioQ versions]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HxfKj7IXXw of]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAr2wrwpyYs the]] 3rd Stage's Romantic Children. |
217 | ** Tutti Sound gives Grimoire of Alice their own spin with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhsJc4M0G18 The Ancient Magic]]. |
218 | ** The remix of "Alice in Wonderland", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6IB07Ezd0A La Fleur En Cage]]" by Crest is notable especially since it is sung in French. |
219 | ** Who knew Alice could [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gygAp4RR67I drift so well?]] |
220 | * The Stage 4 theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ec3C9yovlDs Maple Wise]]". |
221 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNUxYYXN-yc ZUN's arrangement of Maple Wise]]. |
222 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJb5RFW1KKc Remastered]] version. |
223 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKYOw7F0AQA Forbidden Magic]]", the shared boss theme of Yuki and Mai. |
224 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEpRTEMqmO4 ZUN's arrangement of Forbidden Magic]]. |
225 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZ8lsTKkQqA Remastered]] version. |
226 | * Angry Yuki's theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vsj7QloW5Zo Crimson Maiden ~ Crimson Dead!!]]". |
227 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iblqaIn4ok4 ZUN's arrangement of Crimson Maiden ~ Crimson Dead!!]]. |
228 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GU9MRcW4QUc Remastered]] version. |
229 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-xX4q8Lu2Q Treacherous Maiden ~ Judas Kiss]]", Mai's insanely catchy theme. |
230 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T43-ggB0N28 ZUN's arrangement of Treacherous Maiden ~ Judas Kiss]]. |
231 | ** Alstroemeria Records does it again with a vocal remix of Mai's theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJq_SWK0l0E Real Intension]]", portraying Mai's feelings for her counterpart, Yuki. [[http://kafkafuura.wordpress.com/2010/03/17/real-intension/ Judge for yourself]]. |
232 | ** The two [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-C5OBjbA_E Remastered]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtH1c4wv18g versions]]. |
233 | * Stage 5 theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=macGxMXKjI8 The Last Judgement]]". |
234 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0Z4wSmcY6k ZUN's arrangement of The Last Judgement]] |
235 | ** Here are [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qWhQq1NWyQ some]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSnWNiQ_k6U remastered]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIAXUsGzUU0 versions]]. |
236 | ** As well as a song produced by Music/AlstroemeriaRecords, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAdDGdMQBxE rhythmed by a long intro before the core of the song kicks in]]. |
237 | ** Here is a nice remix named [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckK12a9pDWY Dreaming to Return Again]]. |
238 | * Yumeko has a great theme in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCDLJFdDSjs Doll of Misery]]", which also comes in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27DRGPD_-60 Classical]] flavour. |
239 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsZlUhAcuC0 Remastered]] version. |
240 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BBG5IGK3-c Fear the original Ninja Maid]]. SOUND HOLIC made the theme even more awesome. |
241 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMrg0V9TYsU This]] remix of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lt3xlTwT3U World's End]]" by Pizuya's Cell and [=MyonMyon=] is epic. |
242 | ** The excellent "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amT4M_qLYPY Dream Bottom]]" from Syrufit. |
243 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5i80gNdMY3s Now]] with added heartbeat sound and a drop of ''UFO'' flavor. |
244 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7E2pKUSK9I Remastered]] version. |
245 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjqVDoL15g8 Legendary Illusion ~ Infinite Being]]", Shinki's theme from ''Mystic Square''. It takes about 24 seconds for the epic to kick in. A perfect anthem for a battle so epic that it leaves Makai in flames and the fallout of which results in the creation of the Spellcard system. |
246 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJj2ZqUmxFQ ZUN's arrangement of Legendary Illusion ~ Infinite Being]]. |
247 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy9djVEaWVQ This remix]] by O-Life Japan brings the JustForFun/HolyShitQuotient to a whole new level. |
248 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doYxxzE40UU Remastered]] version. |
249 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udXwKu799Tw The remix by RD Sounds]] is a good five and a half minutes of awesome. |
250 | ** Then [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pItvKu-oEdc there is the version by OUT]] that is a complete masterpiece. |
251 | ** A Melodic Death Metal arrange, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fLpcDkWoRo Myth Logic Ignite]], by Pizuya's Cell and [=MyonMyon=] brings something epic and uncommon to the table. |
252 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMp4KCO6kBw Mystic Dream]]", the Staff roll theme. |
253 | ** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1FoACyXN1o Remastered]] version. |
254 | ** The epic sounding [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhqeiC3V2Ys Pearl Remix]]. |
255 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-dvBAhcJ3I Peaceful Romancer]]", the Extra stage's ending theme (and therefore, some of the very last songs of [=PC98=]), is absolutely beautiful. |
256 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsQ8U6_ttCw ZUN's arrangement of Peaceful Romancer]]. |
257 | ** A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iV-Gn1kt2Vw remastered version]]. |
