I Love how at 0:05, 0:09, 0:18 Has the Similar sounds to Touhou 2 Stage 2 themes End of Daylight

[@WishMakers]

I really like the use of the SoEW Stage 2 influence here with the intro especially, fucking rad

[@gabrielwoj]

This one gave me the chills, it's one of my favorite songs from Imperishable Night.

fighting against Lunarians without spell card rules is just a purely unfair nightmare

[@bit2kingwn]

The part at 1:00 always gets me (goosebumps)!

[@galactica-rd6cv]

I tried 1cc-ing IN this morning with a Switch pro controller for the first time
let's just say this song played at Marisa's and Alice's funerals
in all seriousness though I love this arrangement so much

[@icarusmarioFAN]

This makes me wanna replay Imperishable Night

[@eizneckam4936]

Oh, this is my favorite Touhou final boss theme! I really like the instruments in this one.

[@ivboy3300]

When the song started, I was thinking, “this reminds me of SoEW’s stage two theme, will it have the bird noise?”
It did, in fact, have the bird noise.

[@Trojan711]

The bird noise is essential if I'm referencing that song.

[@Daroachie]

[@mineteam0]

[@STIRRUPLEATHER]

Excellent arrangement, really captures the spirit of the PC-98 games. I'm interested in getting into PC-98 composition, was this made with bamboo tracker? (And what is FMDSP?)

[@Trojan711]

This was made with PMD, a driver that was made to compose for PC-98 music. If you're interested in learning, you can check out pedipanol's guide to MML here: mml-guide.readthedocs.io/
As for FMDSP, I was using a tool called '98fmplayer' to display visuals for this video, and the player in question displays FMDSP in the top right corner. While I don't personally use that anymore for PC-98 videos, you can find that player here: github.com/myon98/98fmplayer

@@Trojan711 Thank you so much, that is an incredibly useful guide, tells me everything I wanted to know. Thanks for taking the time to actually responding to my question, this has been a tremendous help. :)
