[MyThiNg94]

I'm in Nirvana

[KhartherMaximillian]

Very impressive ...

[andrzejmm]

i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mrokayfapp]

I heard border of life :DD

[carldudesons]

jazz ,classic,folk, and er hu ( chinese traditional string instrument) u know what japs, u're really great at fusioning music~ it sounds perfectly awesome

[matsurika1]

Reasonably sure the instrument used for e.g. the melody in the The Gensokyo The Gods Loved remix is a stringed instrument such as an erhu rather than a wind instrument. Sounds like one, as a player of such an instrument.

Great arranges, nonetheless!

[modirufa6317]

The second song sound so "Okami" to me for some reason.

[overwhelming12]

Awesome usage of ancient asian instruments!

[NoirsCoO]

I disagree with that description! This IS epic!

[nyxetera]

Where can I get this album?? D: This is amazing.

[778ace]

LEGIT ^_^

[MyThiNg94]

Hello Reimu!

[gameraltz]

AWESOME

[xieshunnuan]

o-o come to think of it. After listening to it the second time, I noticed this is Suika's theme. :o so why nitori pic?

[LuigiHourPowerHour]

@xieshunnuan Not Suika's theme. It's Nitori's stage theme

[xieshunnuan]

@LuigiHourPowerHour

Is it? I mean I remember hearing 1:41 from Suika theme of SWR.

But at a slower pace... Went and checked and it was definitely Suika's theme.

[kg94ex]

@KakashiMr excellent song i wonder how many more you could do and how many more you have :) haha well there i go again :)

[kg94ex]

excerlent song :) nice sound to it

[apstrac2winner]

*subscribed*

[Allycat101010]

Oh my god. The footsteps at the end put this on my favorites. Great arrange!

[hlpbgh]

This sounds like an epic title roll, one that would play at the end of a SotC-esque (in terms of mood) game taking place in Gensokyo. After you help solve the massive incident, and things slowly return to normal. Or do they, as 4:34 cuts in?

[WxIxZEGUY]

And among all that art and beauty, so complex and deep... There is that simple black line, that is almost as shapely as kanji's calligraphy... So simple, but... it completes the picture, but at the same time, changes it's entire effect entirely...

Ive heard people bomb on Manga and Anim for the big eyes and simple mouths... but if you've ever seen the anime that give shape to lips, it looks... wrong... This pitcure has explained this to me. I understand now, thus, Arigoto. Thank you.

[hlpbgh]

Hoooooly crap. Listening again, I remember why I favorited this music. This song is incredible.

[ClRNO]

this song is just beautiful! it shocked me at 1:15 when it suddenly changed so beautifully. A+ ;_;

[KonataStar00]

Wow I just noticed in the second picture you're supposed to be Nitori, standing by a river, and looking at her reflection in the water AND touching it with her hand

[77GunsarfuN77]

Wow, this is amazing. The beauty in these pieces is almost breathtaking.

[KonataStar00]

everyone, if you really love this kind of music, you should try Buddha Bar

It's super relaxing lounge music

If I didn't knew the stage theme The Gensokyou the Gods Loved, I would say this was from a BB CD =3

[victor4544]

remembers okami

[monkeydmonkeys]

i loveee this song :D until 5:31 i dont get that part lol

[Shadowryder120]

damn this sounds fucking awesome. XD

[Fsan666]

CANT BELIEVE I'M THE FIRST TO COMMENT WITH 4.7K VIEWS O.o

Amazing music as always, love you ç_ç.

[PigCGSXT13Btype]

...This song like magic. I could see a different of Age through this song - From the forest to huge civilization - and then to the old world , It make me love in nature more and more I been...

[Piemur1]

Wow, this whole song gave me shivers, and looking at the second picture just gave me this sense that the reflection in the water was sad and crying and yet joyous at the same time with the water bubbles looking like tears but with that little smile. And the dramatical mystic music getting out its full sail..Just beautiful!

[ScottZirpolo]

I sorta missed a few updates...

I follow too much stuff on the Internet.

But anyway...a couple things:

First picture...WANT!

Second picture: Well...ALSO WANT!

Song: ...I think this TOKINE guy is...(mind fails to generate description) ...a pretty good composer. Please accept my lame compliment.

But really, doesn't putting words to music defeat its purpose?

[KakashiMr]

@ScottZirpolo

At 160 a new image compilation will finally get uploaded with all the images you guys wanted.

But yes, I 100% agree on your last statement, expressing music through words (unless it's vocals for a song, and in that case, lyrics) is a very hard thing to do (imagine trying to write those descriptions and encountering that difficulty).

In the end, us humans are only capable of using "lame compliments" to express our feelings for songs by these masters.

Thanks for your comment!

[ScottZirpolo]

But luckily us humans are also capable of the production of such magnificent things as music. You know we've accomplished something when we can't describe our own creations.

[ElMisionero96]

That was plain beautiful, thanks man =D

[sexystealthninja]

that was win

[Tonician0]

The art is great, too ! O_o

[JibbyDaPanda]

Wow, I'm entranced.

I've always had a thing for this kind of sound, and it fits SO beautifully with the song.

[envy400]

Ya know what I've seen this past Comiket? You'd think this one circle sounds good, but the cover art doesn't make it seem like much. When you look inside the case, however, what's in that box is something purely extraordinary.

[KakashiMr]

@envy400

Something I've learned in Doujin albums is to never, I mean, NEVER, trust the album art.

[Chocolatvivi]

the hd has to do with the resolutions.... the newer tv's/monitors have 1080p (1920x1080pixels) the older generation of hd was 720p....anything below that isnt considered to be HD i dont think...hope this helps : D

[xdemonessx]

the intro sounds like Immaterial and Missing Powers' menu music. very serene~

[PurpleXVI]

It's not something I'm going to listen to obsessively, but it was beautifully serene.

[85centimeters]

I think these songs were very well suited for folksy-type arranges. I like the atmosphere that the pictures and the music set.

Sounds like a usual peaceful setting, disrupted suddenly by perhaps the oncoming of war? That's what I thought upon hearing the ending.

I'm a little worried about the Lunasa playlist. Two songs have been taken down as a result of copyright claims. That can't be good...

[KakashiMr]

@85centimeters

That's Masashi Jill, from kapparecords (the SCARLET FANTASIA albums if you aren't familiar with the circle's name), I don't understand why he's so picky when a song of his gets uploaded onto Youtube, he always tries to hunt it down and take it off.

He's the only arranger I've met so far though (thank god).

We always have the blog in case something happens, so no worries.

Thanks for your comments, as always!

[Xocoabel]

Japanese folk + touhou = awesome

Horses running?

Thanks for the song
