There are some parts in the song second, like this for example: 5:37 that do remind me of something from Final Fantasy, maybe the mission song from Final Fantasy VIII or something like that... I'm not too sure. It's a very energezing beat so it would make sense.
That, because of song like this, that i'm happy to live, when i see the universe of touhou, and it's whole fanbase, i'm just happy to see such wonderfull music,fangame, story, for a game that are buyable only on net... Touhou is not a game, not a music genre... Touhou is a new whole world for me. You could though that i'm just crazy, but touhou is just perfect for me.
Every time I hear this song I think of my school project I used this music for. Which, coincidentally or not, was on Earhart. But back to the song. I love it. It's totally epic, and really puts Fires of Hokkai into a different mood. (The Cosmic Mind one also goes along with this comment.)
I wonder if this circle ever released another album. I really want to hear more of their works.
this song just about sums up everything i have to say about video game music like this, its beauty is not necessarily in the melody but that melody's ability to bring you into another world. or am i the only one who got lost in their own imagination while listening to this?
At first I wanted to write down the thoughts I had while hearing this.
But it would take ages to do that. I only can say that I could write two entire books with these two songs.
Both songs are filled with so much imagination a simple mortal like me could never have. I guess I could hear this for my whole life and I'd always picture something else to myself.
Of all the touhou arranges I have praised as epic, this has got to be one of the most incredible. In the first part it's almost like you're about to set out on an adventure in a fantasy land while listening to it, all the more so with that first picture. Almost Tales of like. Second is one of the most blow you away Cosmic Mind songs ever, and very boss battle like. Sorry to ramble but I thought I'd try my best to describe them, despite how indescribable the feelings it brings are.
Every time I come to youtube, the first video I always here is this one. Its just that EPIC. And Ive only gotten to byakuren twice, but she kicked my touhou butt to who knows where....blah!
... Shivers up my back and arms for the WHOLE THING. OhmyGod. This arrangement is the sexiest piece of orchestral perfection I've ever had the rapture of listening to.
Just how there are only speech to describe things and how sometimes there only text to describe feelings or emotions. This song is almost hard to describe. This song is song beautiful. Each instrument just blends in nicely. The word to describe this is SUPERAWESOMETOPPEDWITHEPICSAUSEONTOPANDADASHOFCOOLNESSONEACHSIDEWARMEDUPBYGODHIMSELF. Yeah I know it's not a real word though.
When I convert these to mp3s to listen to, I make sure it is high quality conversion. I make sure the link has &fmt=18 at the end. And yet I still don't think I can do the songs justice. You, sir, are a great person for uploading this.
Maybe my dogsitting just broke me... But I cry every time I hear this, it's so beautiful. Or, maybe, as you say, it's among the most amazing of songs one could allow themselves to hear. This is on a "lousy laptop speaker" setup, but even that makes me begin to melt.
Dear Lord... I hope to one day have a book I write be made into a movie... and I would gladly spend the entire budget if necessary to have songs as wonderful and dramatic as these in it.
Amazing arranges as usual. :D These are actually two of my favorites and it was great to see arranges of them. It's also quite amazing how epic and evil sounding the Cosmic Mind one is. Cosmic Mind is usually so peaceful (though this does get so peaceful at times), and Byakuren looks so evil in this picture. But Byakuren isn't evil. D: She's arguably one of the most good characters in the whole series.
I wish I knew what to say about this, but I'm never good at putting it into words... These arranges have amazed me every time, for 6 replays in a row.
This playlist... has changed my life. Thank you for the uploads. Every one of them.
Cosmic Mind had such incredible potential as a song, but I feared that it would take ages for someone to unlock that... but holy shit, the next comiket after the release, we get... I don't even know what you would call this.
Sadly, this is better than nothing though, as it would be very hard to find people who actually like Touhou and have the instruments to play the parts though. Regardless, the sound of the instruments are rather good.
I couldn't agree more with your description, Emiya. I always liked Morrigan's work because it gives a whole new personal dimension to Zun's song, and that's exactly what this guy does.
I am SO glad you uploaded this. Heard it the other day on my friend's iPod, and I just HAD to look for it on Youtube. *w*
Indeed, a very very gorgeous arrangement. Especially since Cosmic Mind is already such a beautiful piece on it's own, and then パポス kicks it up a notch and WHAM.
As for Fires of Hokkai... I'm just amazed. I thought that no remix could match the original in anyway. Well, this effectively completely changes my mind about a song. Again. This is proof that anything can be changed, made to be completely beautiful, regardless of what the original thing is. Once again Emiya, thanks for uploading these awesome songs. I hope that C77 has many more jewels like these.
I was thinking of suicide, but you, good sir, have just given me new reason to live. THANK YOU. I just love this so Much! It's perfect. It shows me that there is still hope for man, for he can make such beautiful music! The world has not yet fallen to the scoundrels! Actually, I'm on the verge of tears as I write this. THANK YOU!
Hmm. This arrangement of Cosmic Mind isn't only just good. It's so good that people will shut up when they think the original feeling or intent of the song is the most important thing. Great remixes like this are proof that a song can be flipped completely and can still be amazing. It still does have those calm moments the original had though. It's like even though Byakuren is fighting you with all her might, she still shows utter benevolence.
I want to push myself not to overreact, but this is so incredibly deep there's no room for nitpicking.
I'm truly awestuck, that was unfathomably stunning. It's a song but, moreover, it's a whole scenario, it's one of those songs that move you out of your chair into another environment.
Kudos for getting this up, I skipped this album earlier. Not anymore.
Oh my god. That's absolutely gorgeous. The violins, THE VIOLIIIIINS AAAAAAAAH! And the trumpets. Oh god, I've never heard something that epic in my WHOLE LIFE. *kicks mediafire for being so slow* I don't know why, I'm getting a Mario Galaxy feel out of this.
OH DAMN, THE COSMIC MIND. This arrange feels so evil...and parts of it reminds me of Forsaken Doll. Sounds like Byakuren's going to unleash her hardest Spell Card on the player. Oh god, that's beautiful. Thank you so much for uploading!
