think of you intersifies btw that song is a remix of touhou 4 bad apple and it is VERY VERY butchered engrish and apparently the lyrics are VERY lewd aswell
fun fact: some guy maintains a torrent where he collects every touhou remix he finds or he's sended, wich is cool considering the fact that the torrent is *1.65 TERABYTES BIG, IT'S SO MASIVE IT CAN BREAK SEVERAL TORRENT CLIENTS*
Many years late to the party, but I think one of the aspects that make touhou so incentivizing for creators of fanworks is that most of the game is a relatively simple and clean slate. Music is one thing, but many other aspects allow for a lot of creative liberties. For example due to the official character art generally being found lacking it've sparked a lot of visual creative space for character interpretation by drawing artists. The fact that people usually prefer the fanart variations over the official art also helps funnel the community towards artists who're looking for paid work and with it increasing the amount of fanart available for the franchise. Similarly for people who like to explore, theorize and construct the background of characters in terms of story, Touhou once again offers very mild background elements that uses mythology and character relationships as a hook. This allows the fanbase in a lot of cases to derive from the real life mythology and figure out a rough sketch of what each character is like or how they've lived based on said mythology and how the touhou variation of the mythological character differentiates by observing their character relationships. (Though most characters are watered down versions of the mythological counterpart, to maintain the notion of a fun fairyland. The official manga works show off that they can be quite a bit more sinister from time to time though.) Generally speaking as a concept, I personally prefer to look at Touhou as a toybox with the bare minimum aspects needed to make it's own world, but most of the details are left for interpretation and that's what a lot of it's success has derived from.
@@123457474869 I used to post touhou music, until I shifted my focus towards arranging vocal touhou songs myself. We now have Raven's Jig and we sell CDs and artwork on big anime conventions like Japan Expo Paris.
Fun fact for those who've watched to the end of the video: The soundtrack of Urban Legend in Limbo (an official Touhou fighting spin-off) is the first official soundtrack that is a collaboration of ZUN (the series creator) and other popular Touhou doujin circles.
Touhou music is so interesting to me. As an outsider looking in, my knowledge of this series ranges only from YTPMV memes (Ex: UN Owen, Marisa stole, Night of nights) I played have Touhou 6 a bit, but still have not seen the spark that makes this community so huge. Either way, its a huge community full of so many creative things, however the size of the franchise is too overwhelming for me explore in depth. All things considered, you've earned a sub.
Are you the real TJ """Henry""" Yoshi? Just kidding what i really wanted to say is if you're still interested in touhou you should start with touhou 7 or 8 people say they're the easyest but if you're not into bullet hell games you can try the fighting games.There's no need to do them in any order since aside from a few references past events are rarely (if ever) important to the plot.
Damn I feel sad for this guy. After I saw his comment, I was already to see replies at least a bit related to the meme. Why can't he say something and get proper replies?
Now I can show this video to those who keeps asking me what is Touhou music and whatsoever in my comment section. Thanks for this informational video. You also did good job enhancing your content with these great animations too. It gives unique feeling as well as make it more simple to explain complicated subjects like Touhou music which is also known as Doujin music. So I guess this will help people more than wikipedia entries and once more again this was really educational. Keep up with the good work! (´。• ω •。`)
No problem at all ^^ Yeah I recently kinda switched the type of content I produce, as I really wanted to try out some new stuff. Right now I'm mainly focusing on animated story videos, animated educational videos (like this one), and speedpaints. But I'm still experimenting a bit. But yeah generally people like to have some visual representation when being explained an abstract concept (like Touhou music) ^^ Hence I figured my little animated style would fit nicely with this type of explanation video ^^ Thank you very much and no problem at all, I love educating others about subjects I enjoy and stuff ^^
Just don't show this to anyone asking what touhou in general is. Cuz it isnt "magical girls shooting lasers at each other". I hate it when they use that to describe it. It goes to show little to no individuals see the philosophical and religious/folkloric side of touhou which I love.
some iranian dudeZ there is the folklore part of touhou, but I think that is generally surrounding the origin of characters rather than the actual story or content of the game itself. Most obvious in my opinion being Princess Kaguya, a character in a Japanese folktale. Her theme is Flight of the Bamboo Cutter, in regards the bamboo cutter that found her in the original tale. Her spell cards relate to the impossible requests she gave her suitors. However, the story of IN, nor any of the other characters, relate to the tale, besides being from the moon. While there is instances of folklore in touhou, it's generally not "what touhou is". It does add to the depth of the game and certainly could be mentioned, but it's less relevant to understanding the concept~ Although I do guess youkai folklore is quite relevant All in all I guess I'm kind of mixed about this: it isn't required to know but it certainly is nice too -text wall rip :/-
My favorites were (1) lucid dream > 4:00 (2) spider’s blood > 5:14 (3) flyIng Leica > 6:27 (4) flower in floor > 6:52 Ok I’m gonna go drown in the sea of comments bye :)
That was a pretty cool and legit video about informing us about Touhou music. Both newer and veterans of the series will be happy with the information presented here.
i grew up with Touhou and have completely disconnected from its fanbase and sometimes creep back to it (like this time). however during the times that i listened to its music and played its games, it introduced me to so many great things. I am forever grateful of Touhou :3 it really shaped who i am positively.
Wow, Touhou is bigger than I thought. I came here after the Smash rumors, but if Touhou content ever happens to be in Smash, the soundtrack might be great.
Me too! I’ve been a huge fan of Konami’s BEMANI music series for years, and this music seems to have a lot in common with it. Can’t wait to see what’s out there.
I am happy to have found your channel after several years! It was because of this video that I started to get into Touhou dojin music.... Especially in the Hardtechno part like dat file records or uno. I hope you keep uploading more content
Actually there are 3 reasons: -many songs -many circles -the creator has made it an open IP. Its because of that; that the touhou music, merch, doujins, pretty much the entire franchise is as big as it is. About 18 + a handful of spin off games and mangas that are officially endorsed by ZUN. The rest is all the work of dedicated fans. Everything is, in a sense, the people's franchise. ZUN makes the trains while everyone else lays the train tracks. It's why games with a strong community presence heavily outlive their original creators and OG game runtime. DOOM, GTA, Fallout, TF2, etc. If they're not as eneronous and DMCA trigger happy like Nintendo and EA (they're big because they did their community partaking earlier then 180'd om their fans), then the franchise will be forever kept alive by the fans and the people.
"Most bullet hells use Spaceships, but touhou uses cute anime girls." *Muffled screaming from Nue* Btw, im excited to see your reviews. Do you like IOSYS, is i may ask?
There are several kinds of music I love in this world. 60s music, 70s music, 80s music, 90s music, Nintendo music and last but not least, Touhou music.
For anyone wondering, the background music is from the album, "navigation il mare". The track's name in japanese is, "この素敵な時間を大切に". Just do a quick youtube search and you'll probably find it Also, Foxtail-Grass Studio is the best "circle"
yeah i found some touhou music i liked and listened to it and some others for a few months then im like wait this is from a game? and thats how I started playing touhou
A decent Touhou introduction video that I can easily show my pals. Thank you very much for your hard work. Although to be honest I'm not really into the musi-*gets flooded by the angry mobs* I'm more into the doujinshi stuff, so I kinda down when you didn't mention much about that but still, this is a very high quality video so it's okay. Will eagerly wait for your reviews on the music circles as I'm trying to indulge myself in the music part of the fandom and honestly it is pretty scary with how much there is and where to begin. Your next video might give me a head start.
Thank you ^^ Well, there's quite a handful of other "What is Touhou?" videos out there who touch upon more than just the music aspect of Touhou (such as the doujinshi aspect). As the title suggest, this video mainly focuses on the many music arrangements around Touhou. I simply included the little introduction regarding Touhou, in case people have heard of the term "touhou music" before, but don't know exactly what "touhou" is. And thank you very much ^^ The first review will probably be out within a couple of weeks ^^
I shouldn't be complainin about the doujinshi aspect when your video title is specifically saying it's focused on Touhou music. I'm really sorry for that. I guess I got too excited watching the video that I miss the title entirely.
Pffff, that joke about the Undertale fandom is true, we like to come up with a remix for every possible situation lol And I do like touhou music and the remixes that comes with it, it's really diverse and interesting!
Enough to mention that in japan you have a LOT of shops which have dedicated section for touhou merchs and especially music. Thanks for the vid, not a lof peoples care to explain and present touhou.
Watch any video of a japanese guy saying "Touhou" and you will notice that your comment is completely wrong. How can you even try to educate people without knowing the basic rules of japanese pronounciation?
Wow, I really like this video (even though i already knew most things). I'm totally looking forward to seeing your circle-reviews in the future! Btw, do you have a favourite Circle? Keep up the work, I love it!
Thank you very much ^^ Hmm.. My fav circle would probably be Halozy. Simply because they cover quite a lot of genres I like. Though I really like DiGiTAL WiNG and A-One as well ^^ In general I'm a pretty big sucker for eurobeat music.
My current favorites at the moment are probably Liz-Triangle for their extremely competent vocal arranges and Floating Cloud Acoustic because I'm a sucker for folk-style music. Have you heard Halozy's Eurobeat remix of Digital Wing's Plazma? Sounds like something right up your alley ;3 (the original seems to have disappeared off youtube unfortunately)
Owww that's awesome ^^ If you're into folk stuff, perhaps you could try checking out O-Life.jp. They're a circle who mainly focus on folk and oriental instrumental arrangements ^^ And yeah I've heard it ^^ I really like it :D
One of the most underrated circles i liked was tamaonsen, if not wrong the only one that makes rap arrangements, relaxing and fun to listen to, for me at least.
Akatsuki records, digital wing, shibayan records and dBu music is my fav and ZUN used one of dBu's remix in their official game (antinomy of common flowers)
I just found your video while browsing some music and i got charmed till the end with your voice and background music. Like, for real, love your voice. And great video btw ^^
EastNewSound's pretty good, and I'm somewhat familiar with them, so seeing them right off the bat was both comforting and gave me a good frame of reference for everything that followed. Yeah, not new to Touhou remixes, but not thoroughly versed in them either, so thanks for filling in the gaps in my knowledge! :) I intend to share this video with anyone who asks me "what's a Touhou remix?". :3
Can't wait to see the circle reviews. Personally for me my favourite has to be SOUND HOLIC feat. Nana Takahashi, but that's because her vocals are AMAZING. Even if not Touhou, TIEFSEE shows how great her vocals are.
"Spider's Blood" had to be my favorite, but "SLASH YOUR MIND" was pretty good too. (Honorable mentions for "Flower in The Floor", "Hoshizara no Cappricio", and "Eliminator")
SWING HOLIC YES I've been listening to Touhou music for several years, and it's really nice to see an informational video on the topic like this. I remember being confused by how everything worked for quite a while. It's actually been a while since I actively listened to Touhou music, and this video reinvigorated my interest. I think I shall go and visit some old favourites.
A reason I want to get into touhou is because of the fricking EUROBEAT tracks in it I listen to various eurobeats and the ones from touhou are godly as well so I want to play that game but I don’t know where to start
I'll rewatch again this video when i'm not drunk. I just discovered your channel and when I was younger I had similar interests to yours even if i'm only 16 now, it's really interesting and it gives me a lot of nostalgia. (Btw in my state it is legale to drink since 16 lol) I have no idea why i'm writing this under a video from 3 years ago lol but I basically grew up whit an english cover of bad apple (it was by lizz i think) and it was also kinda my opening point of the whole vocaloid and jpop community that I listen to to this day
I know Eliminator is an original track yeah ^^ However it represented ALiCE'S EMOTiON pretty well genre wise, plus I just really like that particular song, hence why I used it ^^ And thank you ^^
you've earned a new subscriber seriously, i love the artstyle and the way you talked about touhou music in depth a little to give people an understanding of what it is
still trying to figure out the transition music at 2:14 otherwise, great video. nice pacing and really sets one person up for liking touhou music or the game in general
I like rock and metal....especially death metal and sync metal.....(tbh its kinda ironic that touhou filled with cute girl but it has great death metal).........well....i hope yiu review something like demetori, undead corp, or other metal circle
ok lets see googles "touhou progressive trance" "touhou ambient" "touhou chiptune" "touhou lofi hiphop" yup i found results for all 4 of those (a lot of results)
Oh if you think the touhou remixes is a rabbit hole, you should look up "Touhou Style Originals" or "Touhou AV's" (Alternative Versions) If you're curious, basically Touhou Styled Originals are original songs made to sound like it's from a Touhou game or heavily inspired by ZUN's style of music. Touhou AV's are a really cool concept. It's basically "What if this touhou song was made for this game instead?" or "What if ZUN decided to remaster this OST?" Some Doujin circles I recommend checking out that do these are "Paradise of Boundaries", "Flowers' Second Bloom", and "Consonances and Dissonances" (Although most Touhou styled content is released individually)
Thanks for making this video!! I listened to a lot of Touhou jazz arrangements as study music and have been wanting to get a better understanding of Touhou as a whole ever since ^~^
Touhou music always overwhelmed me. There's just soooo much music and every Comiket more and more gets released, there's not enough time to listen to everything!

Many years late to the party, but I think one of the aspects that make touhou so incentivizing for creators of fanworks is that most of the game is a relatively simple and clean slate. Music is one thing, but many other aspects allow for a lot of creative liberties. For example due to the official character art generally being found lacking it've sparked a lot of visual creative space for character interpretation by drawing artists. The fact that people usually prefer the fanart variations over the official art also helps funnel the community towards artists who're looking for paid work and with it increasing the amount of fanart available for the franchise.
Similarly for people who like to explore, theorize and construct the background of characters in terms of story, Touhou once again offers very mild background elements that uses mythology and character relationships as a hook. This allows the fanbase in a lot of cases to derive from the real life mythology and figure out a rough sketch of what each character is like or how they've lived based on said mythology and how the touhou variation of the mythological character differentiates by observing their character relationships. (Though most characters are watered down versions of the mythological counterpart, to maintain the notion of a fun fairyland. The official manga works show off that they can be quite a bit more sinister from time to time though.)
Generally speaking as a concept, I personally prefer to look at Touhou as a toybox with the bare minimum aspects needed to make it's own world, but most of the details are left for interpretation and that's what a lot of it's success has derived from.
I'm one of those circles that makes French touhou doujin music. And it's not even butchered :D

Actually there are 3 reasons:
-many songs
-many circles
-the creator has made it an open IP.
Its because of that; that the touhou music, merch, doujins, pretty much the entire franchise is as big as it is.
About 18 + a handful of spin off games and mangas that are officially endorsed by ZUN. The rest is all the work of dedicated fans. Everything is, in a sense, the people's franchise. ZUN makes the trains while everyone else lays the train tracks.
It's why games with a strong community presence heavily outlive their original creators and OG game runtime. DOOM, GTA, Fallout, TF2, etc.

- What is Touhou Music?
- Good Music.
With your permission, i'm going to share this video with everyone in the Spanish community, (Not re-upload it, just sharing) Great work!!!
Oww yeah that's completely fine with me ^^
ZeroSagitary que me perdi? :v
Que hace zero acá :v? , devuelvase a subir videos
Now that's a nice video, really well explained and interesting.
Thanks, "recommended videos".
Is "recommended videos" a playlist?
And if it is, do you remember who made it?
@@chorizord6974 RUclips makes it and yes
A decent Touhou introduction video that I can easily show my pals. Thank you very much for your hard work. Although to be honest I'm not really into the musi-*gets flooded by the angry mobs* I'm more into the doujinshi stuff, so I kinda down when you didn't mention much about that but still, this is a very high quality video so it's okay.
Will eagerly wait for your reviews on the music circles as I'm trying to indulge myself in the music part of the fandom and honestly it is pretty scary with how much there is and where to begin. Your next video might give me a head start.
Thank you ^^ Well, there's quite a handful of other "What is Touhou?" videos out there who touch upon more than just the music aspect of Touhou (such as the doujinshi aspect). As the title suggest, this video mainly focuses on the many music arrangements around Touhou. I simply included the little introduction regarding Touhou, in case people have heard of the term "touhou music" before, but don't know exactly what "touhou" is.
And thank you very much ^^ The first review will probably be out within a couple of weeks ^^
I shouldn't be complainin about the doujinshi aspect when your video title is specifically saying it's focused on Touhou music. I'm really sorry for that. I guess I got too excited watching the video that I miss the title entirely.
Don't worry it's alright ^^
What anime has good music anyway
I'm not sorry
Pffff, that joke about the Undertale fandom is true, we like to come up with a remix for every possible situation lol
And I do like touhou music and the remixes that comes with it, it's really diverse and interesting!
Enough to mention that in japan you have a LOT of shops which have dedicated section for touhou merchs and especially music.
Thanks for the vid, not a lof peoples care to explain and present touhou.
knock knock
who's there
two
two who?
its pronounced touhou
AquaKiso Toh-hoh is the confirmed pronunciation. "Two-who" is the wrong one.
Watch any video of a japanese guy saying "Touhou" and you will notice that your comment is completely wrong. How can you even try to educate people without knowing the basic rules of japanese pronounciation?
You're wrong, Sparky.
If you can quickly look up how to pronounce the only 5 vowels in Japanese phonetics, you should know instantly TouHou is pronounced as Toh-oo-hoh-oo
Kaneonuskatew Im pretty sure it's tō (ō like pronouncing the letter O alone)-hō.
Wow, I really like this video (even though i already knew most things).
I'm totally looking forward to seeing your circle-reviews in the future!
Btw, do you have a favourite Circle?
Keep up the work, I love it!
Thank you very much ^^
Hmm.. My fav circle would probably be Halozy. Simply because they cover quite a lot of genres I like. Though I really like DiGiTAL WiNG and A-One as well ^^ In general I'm a pretty big sucker for eurobeat music.
My current favorites at the moment are probably Liz-Triangle for their extremely competent vocal arranges and Floating Cloud Acoustic because I'm a sucker for folk-style music.
Have you heard Halozy's Eurobeat remix of Digital Wing's Plazma? Sounds like something right up your alley ;3 (the original seems to have disappeared off youtube unfortunately)
Owww that's awesome ^^ If you're into folk stuff, perhaps you could try checking out O-Life.jp. They're a circle who mainly focus on folk and oriental instrumental arrangements ^^
And yeah I've heard it ^^ I really like it :D
Yuunarii Sadly this is going to be the last year of Liz Triangle... They announced they'll disband in the end of 2017 ;-;
One of the most underrated circles i liked was tamaonsen, if not wrong the only one that makes rap arrangements, relaxing and fun to listen to, for me at least.
What is Touhou Music?
Me: ZUNpet, lots of em.
8:35 ah yes, the classic anime girl
It's bird
@@playlist-explorer
its a anthropomorphic bird.
i don't know what i just said
Akatsuki records, digital wing, shibayan records and dBu music is my fav and ZUN used one of dBu's remix in their official game (antinomy of common flowers)
I just found your video while browsing some music and i got charmed till the end with your voice and background music. Like, for real, love your voice. And great video btw ^^
Didn't mention Demetori.
One unseen video by "Alice Margatroid".
How can you call yourself a true fan of the franchise? /s
Well, maybe she isn't a metal listener.
@@MrKapucyn19 still, ya gotta know Demetori if you're a touhou fan.
She didn't mention it verbally. But she put a logo of demetori at 3:04 in the bottom right corner
2:15 I smiled when I heard the music (BTW, the song is: U.N Owen was her?)
The first intermission is the intro.
You saved me, thank you.
I am so new to Touhou. All I can say is that the music goes pretty hard.
EastNewSound's pretty good, and I'm somewhat familiar with them, so seeing them right off the bat was both comforting and gave me a good frame of reference for everything that followed.
Yeah, not new to Touhou remixes, but not thoroughly versed in them either, so thanks for filling in the gaps in my knowledge! :) I intend to share this video with anyone who asks me "what's a Touhou remix?". :3
I love your way of explaining!
I'm sure that this video will be very useful for any new fans~ (we always need more fans ; v;)
Awww thank you ^^
We need more people indoctrinated
Can't wait to see the circle reviews. Personally for me my favourite has to be SOUND HOLIC feat. Nana Takahashi, but that's because her vocals are AMAZING. Even if not Touhou, TIEFSEE shows how great her vocals are.
Angery Undertale Fanboi: UnDeRtAlE hAs BeTtEr MuSiC
ZUN: *Laughs in japanese*
More like Laughs in Beer
wwwwwwww hehe sugoi desu ne~
Both are nice, and Toby likes Touhou
But yeah, Touhou is definitely my top 1 when comes to bgm
"Spider's Blood" had to be my favorite, but "SLASH YOUR MIND" was pretty good too. (Honorable mentions for "Flower in The Floor", "Hoshizara no Cappricio", and "Eliminator")
SWING HOLIC YES
I've been listening to Touhou music for several years, and it's really nice to see an informational video on the topic like this. I remember being confused by how everything worked for quite a while. It's actually been a while since I actively listened to Touhou music, and this video reinvigorated my interest. I think I shall go and visit some old favourites.
What is Touhou music?
Is the music that will be played in your funeral
Kill me, and put U.N Owen was Her? On. Or the Pillar Men theme probably.
@@ray_zor5585 Why not both?
A reason I want to get into touhou is because of the fricking EUROBEAT tracks in it I listen to various eurobeats and the ones from touhou are godly as well so I want to play that game but I don’t know where to start
Touhou 6 is the one most people start with. It was the first game released on Windows xp and it the most popular.
My Friend judge me for being a fan of Touhou ==
Get better friends
Stay calm do a tweet of him and ping @Touhou 😞
*gives you a shotgun* here. This will solve the problem
Judge him for not being a touhou fan
ThànhVinh BP that's a bad friend

0:27 - Cute anime girls. Including Rei'sen with guns.
In my opinion, the greatest video game soundtrack that's ever been created.
I'll rewatch again this video when i'm not drunk.
I just discovered your channel and when I was younger I had similar interests to yours even if i'm only 16 now, it's really interesting and it gives me a lot of nostalgia.
(Btw in my state it is legale to drink since 16 lol)
I have no idea why i'm writing this under a video from 3 years ago lol but I basically grew up whit an english cover of bad apple (it was by lizz i think) and it was also kinda my opening point of the whole vocaloid and jpop community that I listen to to this day
When she said cute girls don't get excited
They are not legal yet
they are not real yet
They are actually
@@timschroder3289 Ah, the old reliable "This person with the body of a child actually is thousands of years old".
@@cutecommie *actually has aged over time
get it
most if not all...are legal..take Flandre for example..physically, you would give her like..12-13 Y.O. while she 495 in reality
Yayyyy, Dom you got it out! It's a really good video and I like the animation and jokes XDD Cannot wait for the reviews to start coming as well ^w^
Yep :D And thank you very much ^^ I'll probably first work on another animated story video, but afterwards I'll start working on my first review ^^
6:03 and 8:55 are definitely my favorites!! Ohhh I’m starting to really like touhou now, I’ve been needing a new source to get into
Bad Apple was a remix of a PC-98 Touhou game called Touhou 4: Lotus Land Story. The song that was remixed was also called Bad Apple!!
Also, those "We'll be right back" moments should be in an anime of their own. Especially the music, it makes it 10 times even more damn hilarious.
You're a great youtuberin keep it up. I'm always looking forward to the next video.
LuiaaiWinchester let me guess, German?
Since I've discovered Touhou a few years ago, I've became he big fan of Touhou music espescialy of the non-vocal remix themes.
Watches this video. Discovers several genres of music I did not know existed.
Like j a z z ?
ALiCE'S EMOTiON does make Touhou arrangements but the song you used in this video is an original piece of REDALiCE.
Otherwise a splendid video
I know Eliminator is an original track yeah ^^ However it represented ALiCE'S EMOTiON pretty well genre wise, plus I just really like that particular song, hence why I used it ^^
And thank you ^^
Tohou's music is ONE thing
*ZUNPETS*
you've earned a new subscriber
seriously, i love the artstyle and the way you talked about touhou music in depth a little to give people an understanding of what it is
still trying to figure out the transition music at 2:14
otherwise, great video. nice pacing and really sets one person up for liking touhou music or the game in general
Two thumbs up for the 2nd intermission eyecatch music.
Selenium Glow or in this case, earcatching.
Ik this is like a year late but WHAT SONG IS THAT AND WHAT IS IT CALLED. Im sorry i really want to know.
U.N Owen was her?
PureSoul Lmao ty for yoyr service.
that desc tho:
"Bad Apple? Isn't that a Touhou song?"
it is
I love bad apple lol it’s the song that I found out about touhou
ayyy that's MinusT on the left at 2:00
Link or name? Looks good
@@ParabellNine 3 weeks late but it's Subterranean Stars
@@dfroster4014 Don't worry, you really helped me, thanks for the name; that animation look awesome
Lets be honest here.....just search : touhou "whatever music genre you want" music.....and walla.....you found it
-Touhou Eurobeat is best-
* -touhou vocal eurobeat is the best-
I like rock and metal....especially death metal and sync metal.....(tbh its kinda ironic that touhou filled with cute girl but it has great death metal).........well....i hope yiu review something like demetori, undead corp, or other metal circle
ok lets see googles "touhou progressive trance" "touhou ambient" "touhou chiptune" "touhou lofi hiphop" yup i found results for all 4 of those (a lot of results)
Dustin M you expecting from a fanbase who made dangdut/funkot cover....of course
Was expecting Everything will freese when I saw Undead Corparation XD btw very well animated video! +1 sub
awesome video 👏
Thumbs up for Youmu!
Answer: Music from the gods.
And I'm not even all that big of a Touhou fan!
Oh if you think the touhou remixes is a rabbit hole, you should look up "Touhou Style Originals" or "Touhou AV's" (Alternative Versions)
If you're curious, basically Touhou Styled Originals are original songs made to sound like it's from a Touhou game or heavily inspired by ZUN's style of music.
Touhou AV's are a really cool concept. It's basically "What if this touhou song was made for this game instead?" or "What if ZUN decided to remaster this OST?"
Some Doujin circles I recommend checking out that do these are "Paradise of Boundaries", "Flowers' Second Bloom", and "Consonances and Dissonances"
(Although most Touhou styled content is released individually)
Thanks for making this video!! I listened to a lot of Touhou jazz arrangements as study music and have been wanting to get a better understanding of Touhou as a whole ever since ^~^
interesting video. nice cartoon mascot of yourself. but i have one. huge. problem. if you're a fan, where in the hell is your silly hat?
Is this a Facebook comment
uhm..... I don't get it , you deserve a million subscribers for your animation...
Awww thank you ^^
I'll wish you a good luck and all the best for the future...
And welcome
*hears touhou*
*compares to anime girls*
*exploded from raging*
Touhou music always overwhelmed me. There's just soooo much music and every Comiket more and more gets released, there's not enough time to listen to everything!
If I had Shazam on my dell computer RN, I would've added so many of the songs you've showed us in my playlist.
You forgot the best genre :
*RONALD MCDONALD*
Lol, i get it.
2:36 "Looking at *you*, Undertale..."
EYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Azure EX *le ginger guns* *EYYY
2:00 left one is made by MinusT.. and he's actually Korean
Thank u yunari for all this info ,and ur avatar is so cute xD
