This isn't a soundtrack, this is a whole experience. Absolutely knocked this out of the park mate. Each piece is absolutely amazing, all different genres and styles of music, and yet clearly still in your distinct style. The transition between the stage themes and boss themes is done extremely well. And including lore about the background of the characters? Mate, absolute peak. Can I just say me getting to Interdimensional Voyage of a Ghostly Passenger Ship was a complete shock. Holy moly the funk on that one was insane. Keep up the work mate, can't wait to see what bangers you drop going forward.
Thank you so much! While making the tracks, I wanted to give each one its own distinctiveness. I feel like that resulted in music that’s both unique and narrative-driven!
At 33:59, you can hear Sanae’s theme, followed by Reimu’s theme shortly after. Then, starting from 34:11, Marisa’s theme comes through. Listening to Sharkur’s music, it’s fascinating to find these hidden melodies. His older works had plenty of moments like this as well.
This has definitely become my favourite medley I've ever heard. To me, "March to the Moon from Graves" from Prismriver Orchestra is just as good music-wise, but the scope, the lore-telling and the visuals make your medley OUTSTANDING! Gigantic congrats AND thanks for creating this, I hope it reaches a ton of Touhou fans!
Thank you! I also listen to the music made by Prismriver Orchestra regularly. I draw a lot of inspiration from their works, so hearing this really makes me happy. What I feel proud of while uploading my music is being able to present the lore of Touhou alongside the music. Thanks to this, I can focus more on the music and provide an amazing experience for all of you!
- Introduction: absolutely BRILLIANT! Very emotional, I can't even recognize the original song, might need to relisten to it again to try and catch it. - Stage 1: pleasant, you really can't go wrong with spring path. Not much to say for this one. - Nazrin: now THIS ONE caught me off guard, I did NOT expect it to go this hard, but it did! - Stage 2: transition from Nazrin -> stage 2 was a bit non-existent, but I'm pleased to report that you turned a song I normally ignore during gameplay into one goosebumps-inducing track. - Kogasa: DEAR GOD 🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙇🙇🙇🐐 - Stage 3: I REAALLY like the playful percussions here, someone get Raiko on the team 🗣🗣🗣 - Ichirin/Unzan: great transition methinks! Great choice of instruments. The kicks gives me unzan pounding ptsd(this is a good thing). - Stage 4: I'm crying it's peam 😭😭😭 I'm glad the percussions stayed. Also the small Nue appearance too, glad you included that. Brother did stage 4 justice. - Murasa: we were so high but it got much higher when you got them flutes involved, oh my god. - Stage 5: it was every bit as intense as I'd like it to be, the way it went, every beat reminded me of the crashing ocean waves. - Shou: *VERY* unique approach, definitely emphasizes the Buddhist part of Shou. Don't think I didn't catch it, you took a bit of creative liberty in some parts. Drums are a tad too loud though. - Stage 6: I'm speechless, this is everything that makes Fires of Hokkai great on crack cocaine. My earhairs tickle in a REALLY good way. - Byakuren: man, just... Take my money. I'm afraid I'd accidentally write an essay expressing why this is, and I'm not kidding, one of, if not THE BEST arrangement for this song my ears have ever had the pleasure of gracing. - Extra: pfffft, brother turned the crickets into a metronome. Great change of pace. Also, PIANO AND LIGHT CHIPTUNE SPOTTED!?!? - Nue: and here it was. The song that got me into your channel. Dear LORD the glitches at the beginning got such a wonderful sound redesign, but I do wish you'd incorporated it into the song more than *just* the beginning. New Nue arrangement >>>> Old Nue arrangement(says much, the old one is still BANGER!) - Ending: what a ride. Favourite track: Emotional Skyscraper(come on now). With all the visuals and storytelling in mind(must've done quite a bit on getting the dialogue, because I do vaguely recognize it), I'm amazed at how fast you got it done(though yes, sanae png but we don't talk about that). Absolute.Cinema.
Thank you for taking the time to share your heartfelt thoughts for every single track. Your passion, energy, and detail leave me truly speechless. It's one thing to create music, but it's another entirely to see someone connect with it on such a deep level. Your words are like a melody of their own-expressive, vivid, and emotional. Knowing that each stage, each theme, and each moment of storytelling resonated with you means the world to me. From the explosive energy of Nazrin’s theme to the serene yet intense beauty of Byakuren’s theme, your feedback captures not just the sound but the soul of the project. Shou's arrangement, in particular, was based on Korea's traditional music, Gugak. Gugak is characterized by its complex, rapid drumming and powerful percussion. As it was my first time attempting this style, balancing the drum sounds proved a bit challenging. I'm truly glad to know this experimental approach found its way to your heart. It’s deeply humbling to hear how much certain tracks impacted you-whether it’s the percussive playfulness of Stage 3, the tear-inducing tenderness of Stage 4, or the relentless intensity of Stage 5. Even the minor details, like the flute in Murasa’s theme or the subtle touch of chiptune in the Extra stage, did not go unnoticed. You’ve highlighted moments I cherished creating, and your reflections give them even greater meaning. To have someone describe “Emotional Skyscraper” as the best arrangement their ears have ever graced-I have no words. It’s feedback like yours that makes the endless hours of work feel entirely worth it. Truly, thank you for reminding me why I love doing this. This journey wouldn’t mean half as much without listeners like you. Your recognition of the visuals, storytelling, and even the small creative liberties I took fills me with gratitude and inspiration. I hope my next project will be just as worthy of your praise!
This is truly a masterpiece. Not only was the arrangement wonderful, but the atmosphere and the recap of UFO's story gives us something to look at. Glad I took the time to listen to the whole thing! ^^
I haven't even listened to the whole video but I can already tell that this was gonna be Absolute Cinema and will fill my heart's content with your special sauc- Music
One day i commented that you should be somewhere out there making musicals. And you freaking did. Pure excellence, you madlad! You know the video is good when it's 45min but feels like 20.
Thanks a lot! That comment really hit me. It’s amazing to hear that the video kept you hooked for the entire 45 minutes! I'll continue working hard to ensure the highest quality.
@@v.sharkur8813 I'm grateful that you're one of those rare creators who actually communicate with commentators, and that you value our feedback. Touhou has so many great pieces, dare i say, it's a gold mine for cover/remix artists. Can't wait to see what you'll cook next!
Sanae's story in touhou 12 has always been my favorite in all of touhou games, what you did here, man, woah, you leave me spechless, you did way more that remixing, you added the dialogues, and those scenery shots look beautiful, you have my respect. One day, I promise I'll make a video about Sanae's route and I will provide a link to this video, you created peak man.
@@v.sharkur8813but of course it is good that you are still being humble and honest. You can always improve even more! Thank you though for investing time and passion into music and sharing it with others too. It is a gift of God!
@ I watched the full thing you did a fantastic job with it. I don’t think I’ve seen anything quite like this in the touhou community which is a achievement on its own.
There is no subtitles in some places But overall this is an amazing and magnificent piece of art I enjoy it every single second and i love it I would have peed myself like the guy ho said was gonna pee himself for emotional skyscraper
Thank you! Actually, the part where the subtitles stop is when Byakuren starts chanting the Heart Sūtra. I debated whether to add subtitles there, but I thought it would be better for everyone to feel that part without subtitles, so I left it out.
You did it! I can't express how perfect is it as art, you are telling the story with the music, just like ZUN does, spectacular indeed. The way it how begins and ends, it's just like a movie, it's so epic, so much drama and action, so much meaning... perfect
This was amazing. The music was wonderfully arranged. While not one of the games I'm very familiar with, I knew the characters but not how they connected and seeing it all laid out like this was an experience. I would love to see more of the games done in this manner. Byakuren's theme is always a favorite of mine and you did such justice to it. Same with Heian Alien. Kudos to you and thanks for putting in the time and effort to make this masterpiece.
Thank you so much! Stories enjoyed alongside music truly add incredible depth and narrative. I poured my heart into arranging Emotional Skyscraper as well. I hope my efforts have reached your heart!
Wow. Honestly, I don’t even know what to say. You’ve truly outdone yourself this time. Everytime you release an arrangement, my expectations for you become higher, yet every time you release a new arrangement you go far beyond my expectations, making me amazed with your music. Honestly, i’ve never played a Touhou game before, i’ve only listened to the music, but your beautiful arrangements might make me want to play the games
Thank you so much. I've always put in my best effort, and this time, I think the result is not bad at all. I believe everything came together thanks to the inspiration I gained from watching the Touhou Orchestra performance.
I absolutely love this! Thank you so much for sharing this project! UFO has a special place in my heart, and listening to an arrangement medley of the complete soundtrack was one of the best musical experiences I’ve had in a long time. I specially enjoyed the stage 4-6 songs, and the culmination of it all with Emotional Skyscraper did made justice to its name, was wonderful. I wish the best of luck and I wholeheartedly look forward to the next projects!
This was worth the wait! Such a fantastic masterpiece!! UFO has my favourite story in Touhou, and seeing it covered as a 45 minutes epic was amazing. You also definitely did justice to Emotional Skyscraper (my fav song hehe), the whole section from Lotus Sutra to Path of the Hokkai blends into each other so well and makes for such an epic finale (not including the EX stage). Keep up the good work!! :D
Thank you so much! I really wanted to include the essence of the Lotus Sutra, which I believe is tied to Byakuren's character. I'm so glad to hear that you felt the way I intended! It makes me really happy.
I don't normally make comments like this but OH MY GOD!!! This has got to be among the greatest of orchestral medleys I heard for a Touhou game EVER!!! From the beginning foretelling Byakuren's rise in power along with her deepest motivations to each stage narrating the backstories of all her most devoted followers and why they revere her so much. Then every single boss theme building up to the ultimate climatic showdown between our heroines and Byakuren Hijiri herself in the heart of Hokkai. Finally, Nue's extra stage and mysterious involvement throughout this incident is *chef's kiss* ABSOLUTE PERFECTION! No words can describe how PEAK this entire project truly is, and I would wait an entire month all over again if you were to prepare more masterclass level medleys like this one in the future. May the Hakurei Gods bless your soul for eternity and beyond! 🙏🙏
Thank you. I created this medley with the hope of sharing the captivating story that can often be overlooked while playing the game. Since it was my first attempt, it was quite experimental, but the results weren’t bad at all!
I gotta let this out of my chest, I know you have seen this a lot but you're amazing. I absolutely love Touhou's original soundtracks and the arrangements too. But I don't listen to them a lot. For some reason, they always managed to escape from my music listening sessions until RUclips recommended them to me. That is until KokeTouhou came with their 3 hours long all Touhou boss medley. I was stunned by those magical melodies and apparently sealed them into my mind. From that moment, I chose to sit back and enjoy my best 3 hours of that month. Even at this moment, I'm still waiting for Koke to release more arrangements. And then when I was listening to other Pure Furies arrangements, I got recommended to your Pure Furies arrangements, I thought to myself "this thumbnail looks dope, I think this is worth a try" and was visually stunned at the first seconds. I expected the video to have the pic and effects but no, it was something WAY MORE. The visual effects worked too well, it gave me the feelings when I was watching Kimetsu No Yaiba with their top tier animation qualities. Then I was greeted by the Sea Where One's Home Planet Reflects part. It put me in a peaceful state, then the orchestra part came. I have always been a fan of orchestra and orchestral music so I was like "oh hell yeah, let's go" and really excited for the rest of the video. But not as I expected, the video was so freaking good. The visuals, and the arrangement, all are top tier. It had been a long time since I got an eargasm since when I listened to Koke's arrangements, those same feelings struck me like a truck and goosebumps formed on my skins. The same magical like feelings that I hadn't experienced elsewhere besides Koke's arrangements seems to also reside in your arrangements. But it's not just that, you're something else, the visuals that are engraved in your video bring the experience to a whole another level and you also put the lore pieces in your videos too. And thus, I became curious, left a comment about how great your Pure Furies arrangement is then checked out your other videos to my surprise, you also do other kinds of music as seen in the Love-Colored Master Spark arrangement video of your. "Yo, no way dude" was the first thing in my mind. I was also greeted by The Wheel Of Fortune Turning Over arrangement too. These two themes have always been my favourites. And so I became addicted, I subscribed and I listened to your videos everyday, when studying, chilling and when I do other things too. Every second I chose to enjoy your music is nowhere near the word "wasted", and I waited for your new updates. And then the moment came, you announced to us that you would be making a medley. I was very excited, hyped to put it correctly because I would love to listen to a medley arranged by you. As expected, the medley is super duper good. It was very worth the time we were waiting for the medley to come out. I've been listening to it everyday since its release. You've outdone yourself with this video and we very much appreciated it. I think this may be a little late to say but I hope you give yourself some time to rest and cooldown from all the work you've done for this medley. If I have the power to then I'll really send you a super thank for your efforts. You've truly gained me and other people to be your loyal listeners, dear artist. The views may be a little underwhelming for the qualities of the videos, but the YT algorithms will sure do their work and recommend them to other people to enjoy your works too. After all the other Touhou arrangements with high views are very old. And I don't know if anyone have said it, but I think we owe you a "thank you" a special thank to put it more correctly, for producing top tier music videos for us to enjoy. These are my true thoughts, not any kind of overestimation. If you have read my holy yapping until this, thank you for reading and hope you have a great day or night, peace!
Thank you for your kind words! I often listen to Keko's medleys myself, and I greatly admire his refined and classical approach to arranging music. His work consistently inspires me. Beyond Keko, I’ve also been deeply influenced by the works of many other creators, which ultimately motivated me to try creating a medley of my own. Thankfully, the result wasn’t too bad, and I’m happy with how it turned out. I’d like to explore a variety of unique styles in my arrangements, and I have no shortage of ideas to experiment with. I’m eager to keep growing and improving as I move forward. Thank you again!
Esto es hermoso, te luciste, toda la historia, toda la musica, fue increible. Es hermoso lo que hiciste, no sabia varios detalles, y con tu video, me entere de un monton de cosas. Justo este fue el primer Touhou el cual yo jugue. Me encanto!
uwaaa!! this took me till now(2 days) to complete. it'd be great if it was split into different parts for people like me who love the replayability but having to go through the entire thing over and over again for a few 2 minute long sections is... well that's all my complaint. everything else is crazy good!!!! we going to makai with this one!!! you went all out with this one!! I'd say this one's praiseworthy but a good amount of your stuff is! Just to clarify, i've got great byakuren shaped complex in my emotional skyscraper heart!! I loved the theme of eastern story in byakuren's part. really got me smiling like a one piece character! though i feel that emotional skyscraper could be improved on. it didnt have that GREAT tension release that gets my heart pumping. dont get me wrong, its great! but you can still go higher!!
Thank you! I constantly listen to my own pieces, reflecting on where they fall short and what improvements need to be made. Keeping feedback like this in mind, I’ll continue to grow and aim for even better music in the future :)
Hey SharKur I played your remix of Pure Furies some weeks ago in Team Fortress 2 And someone named this song "Wise chinese medic song" I was dying laughing from that, oh god Thank you for your music !
That's an interesting story. To think my music would be used under such a name somewhere, I'm sure Zunko won't forgive it. (Thanks for listening to the music!)

You got Kogasa's theme part the most right one I could find. Thanks now I was satisfied and fulfilled my unremained wish
That part was meant to express Kogasa's loneliness and melancholy. I think it turned out pretty well.
I clicked on this expecting it to be like your usual arrangements then I relized it was 45 minutes long. This is going to be good
Yes! 45 minutes is quite long, but there's still so much to enjoy nonetheless.

本当にありがとうございます！実はその部分は友達が「ヌエのメロディを入れてみたらどう？」と言ってくれて、そこから入れることにした裏話があります。よくキャッチしていただきましたね！
There is no subtitles in some places
But overall this is an amazing and magnificent piece of art
I enjoy it every single second and i love it
I would have peed myself like the guy ho said was gonna pee himself for emotional skyscraper
Thank you! Actually, the part where the subtitles stop is when Byakuren starts chanting the Heart Sūtra. I debated whether to add subtitles there, but I thought it would be better for everyone to feel that part without subtitles, so I left it out.
クオリティの高さに感動しました

예고 영상보고 기대를 많이 했었는데 기대 이상으로 너무좋았어요 마치 단편 영화한편 본거 같았습니다! 음악도 너무 좋았구 직접 게임한 느낌까지 들어요
정말 감사합니다!! 열심히 만든만큼 많은 분들이 좋아해주셔서 너무 기뻐요. 즐겁게 감상해주셔서 저야말로 감사할 따름입니다!
This was amazing. The music was wonderfully arranged. While not one of the games I'm very familiar with, I knew the characters but not how they connected and seeing it all laid out like this was an experience. I would love to see more of the games done in this manner.
Byakuren's theme is always a favorite of mine and you did such justice to it. Same with Heian Alien. Kudos to you and thanks for putting in the time and effort to make this masterpiece.
Thank you so much! Stories enjoyed alongside music truly add incredible depth and narrative. I poured my heart into arranging Emotional Skyscraper as well. I hope my efforts have reached your heart!
Beautiful, simply beautiful.
Thanks for reminding me why I love touhou.
Glad I could bring back that feeling :)
Not hearing the bonus life sound at 17:11 kind of broke my heart
🍄1UP🍄
Wow. Honestly, I don’t even know what to say. You’ve truly outdone yourself this time. Everytime you release an arrangement, my expectations for you become higher, yet every time you release a new arrangement you go far beyond my expectations, making me amazed with your music. Honestly, i’ve never played a Touhou game before, i’ve only listened to the music, but your beautiful arrangements might make me want to play the games
Thank you so much. I've always put in my best effort, and this time, I think the result is not bad at all. I believe everything came together thanks to the inspiration I gained from watching the Touhou Orchestra performance.
これはすごい！ストーリーもあってもはや映画ですね…！
ありがとうございます！！物語性のある雰囲気を作るために本当に努力しました。
I absolutely love this! Thank you so much for sharing this project!
UFO has a special place in my heart, and listening to an arrangement medley of the complete soundtrack was one of the best musical experiences I’ve had in a long time. I specially enjoyed the stage 4-6 songs, and the culmination of it all with Emotional Skyscraper did made justice to its name, was wonderful.
I wish the best of luck and I wholeheartedly look forward to the next projects!
Thank you so much! I'm truly happy to know you enjoyed it that much! I will continue to improve moving forward.
IT'S HERE!
@@SPGoji YEEES!!
45分！？例大祭やコミケで頒布するCDレベルじゃないか……！
お疲れ様です……ありがたや～ありがたや～
本当に大変でした。初めてのメドレーだったので！実験的な部分も多いですが、気に入っていただけたら嬉しいです！
Woah this is the greatest so far! We got a whole movie from this arrangement thank you SharKur ❤
Thank you! Did you have an enjoyable journey? haha XD
Buena música, buena historia y gran animación de los efectos y casi una hora de duración, es perfecto
@@PandoraCortz575 Thank you so much. I’ve worked really hard!
This was worth the wait! Such a fantastic masterpiece!!
UFO has my favourite story in Touhou, and seeing it covered as a 45 minutes epic was amazing. You also definitely did justice to Emotional Skyscraper (my fav song hehe), the whole section from Lotus Sutra to Path of the Hokkai blends into each other so well and makes for such an epic finale (not including the EX stage). Keep up the good work!! :D
Thank you so much! I really wanted to include the essence of the Lotus Sutra, which I believe is tied to Byakuren's character. I'm so glad to hear that you felt the way I intended! It makes me really happy.
하루에 한 번 씩은 듣고, 다른 어레인지도 듣고 있습니다... 정말 대단하십니다
감사합니다! 많이많이 들어주세요 😍
God damn... this shi isn't just a meal... it's a full course... and you COOKED
Thanks! As an appetizer, I recommend checking out a few other tracks on my channel
@v.sharkur8813 Listened to all already...
@@SsSs-mi7xi Wow
동방 입문하고부터 인기투표 곡은 여러 번 바뀌었지만 1등은 항상 밤하늘 ufo 로맨스였는데 노래도 그렇고 그 제목의 분위기가 스토리에 그대로 녹아들어서 정말 좋네요 이런 명곡 메들리 만들어주셔서 정말 감사합니다 ㅎㅎ
감사합니다. 밤하늘 곡은 잔잔하지만 정체불명의 느낌이 서서히 드리우는 느낌으로 만들어봤습니다. 메들리가 마음에 드셔서 다행입니다 :)
WOOO! Buddhist mommy with the team!
Astounding work, amazing arrangement, epic!
Thank you! Let’s reach the state of nirvana!
18:18 I got chills man
@@ViddyWellSA11 ( • ᴗ - ) ✧
I don't normally make comments like this but OH MY GOD!!! This has got to be among the greatest of orchestral medleys I heard for a Touhou game EVER!!!
From the beginning foretelling Byakuren's rise in power along with her deepest motivations to each stage narrating the backstories of all her most devoted followers and why they revere her so much. Then every single boss theme building up to the ultimate climatic showdown between our heroines and Byakuren Hijiri herself in the heart of Hokkai. Finally, Nue's extra stage and mysterious involvement throughout this incident is *chef's kiss* ABSOLUTE PERFECTION! No words can describe how PEAK this entire project truly is, and I would wait an entire month all over again if you were to prepare more masterclass level medleys like this one in the future. May the Hakurei Gods bless your soul for eternity and beyond! 🙏🙏
Thank you. I created this medley with the hope of sharing the captivating story that can often be overlooked while playing the game. Since it was my first attempt, it was quite experimental, but the results weren’t bad at all!
i live for this video specifically
I live for the people who enjoy this video :)
This, this is just so good. The recap of the whole game, the music, the visual effect, everything is just perfect.
I put in a lot of energy into this. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
@@v.sharkur8813 I really really want to see more videos from you!
素敵！感動しました！！😭👏
ありがとうございます！ ( ^ . ^ ) /
법계의 불부터 밤하늘의 UFO로맨스~헤이안의 에일리언까지 이어지는 분위기가 너무 좋습니다,,,,감사합니다
감사합니다. 유난히 신경 쓴 파트입니다. 좋아해주시니 좋네요 :)
I gotta let this out of my chest, I know you have seen this a lot but you're amazing. I absolutely love Touhou's original soundtracks and the arrangements too. But I don't listen to them a lot. For some reason, they always managed to escape from my music listening sessions until RUclips recommended them to me. That is until KokeTouhou came with their 3 hours long all Touhou boss medley. I was stunned by those magical melodies and apparently sealed them into my mind. From that moment, I chose to sit back and enjoy my best 3 hours of that month.
Even at this moment, I'm still waiting for Koke to release more arrangements.
And then when I was listening to other Pure Furies arrangements, I got recommended to your Pure Furies arrangements, I thought to myself "this thumbnail looks dope, I think this is worth a try" and was visually stunned at the first seconds. I expected the video to have the pic and effects but no, it was something WAY MORE. The visual effects worked too well, it gave me the feelings when I was watching Kimetsu No Yaiba with their top tier animation qualities. Then I was greeted by the Sea Where One's Home Planet Reflects part. It put me in a peaceful state, then the orchestra part came. I have always been a fan of orchestra and orchestral music so I was like "oh hell yeah, let's go" and really excited for the rest of the video. But not as I expected, the video was so freaking good. The visuals, and the arrangement, all are top tier. It had been a long time since I got an eargasm since when I listened to Koke's arrangements, those same feelings struck me like a truck and goosebumps formed on my skins. The same magical like feelings that I hadn't experienced elsewhere besides Koke's arrangements seems to also reside in your arrangements. But it's not just that, you're something else, the visuals that are engraved in your video bring the experience to a whole another level and you also put the lore pieces in your videos too. And thus, I became curious, left a comment about how great your Pure Furies arrangement is then checked out your other videos to my surprise, you also do other kinds of music as seen in the Love-Colored Master Spark arrangement video of your. "Yo, no way dude" was the first thing in my mind. I was also greeted by The Wheel Of Fortune Turning Over arrangement too. These two themes have always been my favourites. And so I became addicted, I subscribed and I listened to your videos everyday, when studying, chilling and when I do other things too. Every second I chose to enjoy your music is nowhere near the word "wasted", and I waited for your new updates. And then the moment came, you announced to us that you would be making a medley. I was very excited, hyped to put it correctly because I would love to listen to a medley arranged by you. As expected, the medley is super duper good. It was very worth the time we were waiting for the medley to come out. I've been listening to it everyday since its release. You've outdone yourself with this video and we very much appreciated it. I think this may be a little late to say but I hope you give yourself some time to rest and cooldown from all the work you've done for this medley. If I have the power to then I'll really send you a super thank for your efforts. You've truly gained me and other people to be your loyal listeners, dear artist. The views may be a little underwhelming for the qualities of the videos, but the YT algorithms will sure do their work and recommend them to other people to enjoy your works too. After all the other Touhou arrangements with high views are very old. And I don't know if anyone have said it, but I think we owe you a "thank you" a special thank to put it more correctly, for producing top tier music videos for us to enjoy. These are my true thoughts, not any kind of overestimation. If you have read my holy yapping until this, thank you for reading and hope you have a great day or night, peace!
Thank you for your kind words! I often listen to Keko's medleys myself, and I greatly admire his refined and classical approach to arranging music. His work consistently inspires me. Beyond Keko, I’ve also been deeply influenced by the works of many other creators, which ultimately motivated me to try creating a medley of my own. Thankfully, the result wasn’t too bad, and I’m happy with how it turned out.
I’d like to explore a variety of unique styles in my arrangements, and I have no shortage of ideas to experiment with. I’m eager to keep growing and improving as I move forward. Thank you again!
Both the visuals and the musics are stunning, you did an amazing job! Your Heian Alien is one of the best I've ever heard!
Thank you! I previously remixed "Heian Alien," and I'm glad to hear that many people like the new arrangement I made this time as well.
I'm Korean. It's a good medley! I've listened to it over and over again.
저도 한국인입니다. 들어주셔서 감사합니다 :)
@v.sharkur8813 앗 한국인이셨구나 알고리즘으로 봤는데 잘들었습니다!
masterpiece! I like the wide range of use of bells, flutes, orchestral instruments in this medley
@@AndyAndy-oc4fv I wanted to use as many instruments as possible. Each one conveys a vastly different feeling, so I aimed to create distinctiveness.
I always love your arrangements of touhou music. Keep doing what you do best.
Thanks for the support! XD
Esto es hermoso, te luciste, toda la historia, toda la musica, fue increible. Es hermoso lo que hiciste, no sabia varios detalles, y con tu video, me entere de un monton de cosas. Justo este fue el primer Touhou el cual yo jugue. Me encanto!
Gracias. Me alegra que te guste :)
this might be the greatest way to weave through touhou lore
incredible work
Thank you! I love creating narrative-driven music like this. That's why I enjoy making these kinds of pieces as a hobby!

Oh wow, this is beyond epic! UFO has always been one of my favorites when it comes to Touhou stories. But yeah, this is amazing. Great job! 👏👏
I also had as much fun playing the UFO as I did with Lunatic Kingdom, so I wanted to put just as much care into creating this. Thank you!
You need so much more exposure your works are amazing they need to be heard by the populace.
Thank you. I'm happy that there are people who listen to my arrangements.
Touhou Music Tour. This is amazing!
Thanks a lot! :)

ITS HERE!! Ive been waiting for this!
LET'S GOOOOOO
Hoist the anchor!!!!
uwaaa!! this took me till now(2 days) to complete. it'd be great if it was split into different parts for people like me who love the replayability but having to go through the entire thing over and over again for a few 2 minute long sections is... well that's all my complaint. everything else is crazy good!!!! we going to makai with this one!!! you went all out with this one!! I'd say this one's praiseworthy but a good amount of your stuff is! Just to clarify, i've got great byakuren shaped complex in my emotional skyscraper heart!! I loved the theme of eastern story in byakuren's part. really got me smiling like a one piece character! though i feel that emotional skyscraper could be improved on. it didnt have that GREAT tension release that gets my heart pumping. dont get me wrong, its great! but you can still go higher!!
Thank you! I constantly listen to my own pieces, reflecting on where they fall short and what improvements need to be made. Keeping feedback like this in mind, I’ll continue to grow and aim for even better music in the future :)
@@v.sharkur8813 I've got a decent amount of replays on you're stuff! fair to say, you're pretty good! Just keep being you!

民俗音楽などに詳しいわけではないのではっきりしたことは言えないけど、キャラやキャラの帰属先・属性によって音楽の毛色が全く変わっていて面白いな～と感じた
ナズーリンはケルトらしさがありましたね

아닛... 뭔가 스토리가 길다 싶더라니 45분...
글을 쓸 때마다 다른 이야기를 보거나 음악을 듣곤 하는데, 영상 볼 때마다 음악도 좋고 장면이 너무 잘 떠올라서 영감이 솟네요. 아껴 보고 싶을 정도..
저도 음악을 만들면서 꼭! 장면을 떠올립니다. 그래야 좀 더 음악이 서사적이로 들리기 때문이죠! 제가 서사적인 음악을 좋아하는 것도 있고요. 감사합니다! 생각날때마다 들어주세요 ㅎㅎ
Hey SharKur
I played your remix of Pure Furies some weeks ago in Team Fortress 2
And someone named this song "Wise chinese medic song"
I was dying laughing from that, oh god
Thank you for your music !
That's an interesting story. To think my music would be used under such a name somewhere, I'm sure Zunko won't forgive it. (Thanks for listening to the music!)
