IOSYS: Border of Death [Off Vocal]

[ColdIndulgentRevenge]

Sounds so pretty! Thanks for uploading! ^^

[Kaiinel]

Feels pretty empty without the vocals.

[elstormo]

Now if only there was a version *with* the female vocals, but *without* the male ones. Because damn, those male Japanese singers are annoying.

[kiteofdark]

@elstormo That guys voice at the very beginning is just awesome though.

[NekoSuika1]

@elstormo actually its probaly becuz their speaking engrish which just make the song more awesome in my opinion :DDDD

[elstormo]

@NekoSuika1 Well... let's just say that's a matter of personal tastes :D

[kiki902143]

If I am EVER a video game boss, THIS WILL BE MY THEME.

[TheHedgehogBrothers]

For those who want MP3 of this song (or every other), Google

"Youtube to MP3"

[AnimeLover164]

AWESOME VID :D

[henfflarstut]

iosys are gooooood

[xXCHRYXx]

Wow... This song is simply amazing! =D

[LynviMovies]

this song sounds already perfect without vocals :)

[fleeordie]

@Teppikun Why do people keep comparing Touhou to anime, lol. Zun's style isn't anime style, Zun style is Zun style. No way is anyone going to mistake a Marisa in Touhou 3 as "anime".

[YupTanya]

wow! where the hell you get this?

please

can you find Dial Connected off vocal?

[atfyntify]

The download link? I've been thinking of puting this theme while fighting yukari.

[ParadoxNG]

fuck, I didn't realise there was an off vocal version

so much win

[puzzlechu]

... sexy. just sexy ._.;

[EternalLunar]

As much as the music is truly divine in this song... I'd just have to say it feels very empty without the vocals. I'm too attached to them... D;

But this song is just...............heartmeltin­g either way.

[TinariKao]

@EternalLunar That is likely because almost songs, they're designed to let the lyrics be an instrument all their own. There are lulls in the instruments for lyrics and they're meant to weave into it. I am sure if the artist were designing a song to be instrumental they'd make it much cleaner.

[EternalLunar]

@TinariKao Well I'm a major sucker for any kind of rock-ish music that includes electric guitars, combined with violins. That's just pure gold. So 0:35 - 0:48 for me is...heaven. I honestly don't mind not hearing singing in that part. But the chorus I seriously need. :/ Don't get me wrong, this instrumental is fantastic, just that it doesn't cut off to be instrumental even if the artists tried to make it. Just doesn't sound quite right. :/

[TinariKao]

@EternalLunar By all means, I wasn't saying that it's bad or wrong. I myself find that I like minimalist music as much as I like the more complex things. Chiptunes are mostly my favorite though. The reason I like japanese songs though is that I don't understand the lyrics, thus the voice sounds more like an instrument than something understandable that has a single meaning. Music is beautiful in all it's forms.

[EternalLunar]

@TinariKao Female Japanese singers ALL have the purest and most beautiful voices you can hear, even though pretty much all of them are extremely high-pitched. There's just no way you can't like them, lol. Especially ones like this.

And yes, the music is just...out of this world. Americans can't possibly compete with Japanese style music. They never will.

[atfyntify]

@EternalLunar I will agree with this comment over 9000 times!!! And really I like all of the touhou musics that are non vocal! XD

[rockstar1000avi]

Three people were stuck in Yukarin's gaps for all eternity.

[GenesicShinZyraelKai]

NOW THIS IS AWESUM!

Been searching for an arrange of Yukari's theme that actually sounds as awesome as the final extra boss that she is... XD

[bowservspeach109alt]

Wow.

And I thought the original was beautiful.

[LolitaMasquerade]

Beautiful picture, beautiful song.

[CaptFiddleheadz]

O.K. What 2 trolls put thumbs down on this? SHOW YOURSELVES!!!

[AurixDarastrix]

@CaptFiddleheadz

Perhaps they simply did not like it. Please, do not be so quick to jump to conclusions. It just makes it easier for the trolls.

[CaptFiddleheadz]

@AurixDarastrix

I was being facetious and also stating that you would have to be lying about such a great piece would deserve a thumbs down.

[ShikigamiChenYakumo]

@CaptFiddleheadz

They just missed the Thumbs up button

Its okay. We forgive

[Titandrake]

Although it may not be the best quality, you could always use video2mp3 to convert it.

[ThReaperEnemy]

this off vocal version is much better

[Afoxi]

?d=CSDC0NKR

?d=SNAHWUMZ

Mega.

[Ghalion666]

What album is this in (the non vocal version in case that's not obvious)?

[Keshisama]

東方乙女囃子 (tōhō otomebayashi) - Touhou Maidens' Orchestra, according to the Touhou Wiki

[OzixiThrill]

make it 10k...

And I think it's reasonable... good stuff is good...

[Bronzecop]

This would be great with a Touhou beat em up Doujin, the guitars goes great with opening a fresh can of whoop ass.

[KannaHimeYT]

Those have great soundtracks of their own already though. o.o

[Bronzecop]

Havnt seen a beat up touhou doujin & I'm not talking about fighting games

[KannaHimeYT]

Oh, you mean a games like DDR, Beatmania and Guitar Hero and such? Rhythm games? o.o

[Bronzecop]

If you ever heard of Battletoads, then you'll know what I'm talking about.

[Gamefreakgal55]

i was thinking about recording me singing this song then find some how to add the 2 together so it's like "Border of Death" but MY version! :D

[girlpower128]

It's more epic if you HQ.

[ponyta222]

[Level2Corn]

Google "Free Youtube to MP3 Converter"

First result

[AllyKat13]

Iz sat l*e*g*a*l?

[gigaslave]

"Keepvid" is thy ally in this endeavour.

[Toyboxfriend101]

I've been lookin' fr dis!

[DANmakuFailure]

This is... Amazing!

[inaffit95]

this is so cool! much better then the 1 with voice. this 1 is more mystical and just goes with the flow of the wave!

[niedzwiedz1124]

nope,touhou is an anime based on danmaku shooter series D:

[Alphanish]

Man i love this anime! it's so awesome where the thing happens and the non existent plot comes, and then there's a plot twist which no one saw coming and i mean wow.

[mentaljosh123]

Lol, my friend. You just made as much sense as a monkey on crack, but I get what you meant by all that. It is exciting when that thing happened and then that stuff with the plot twisting and swishing...

[Alphanish]

of course that would be your favorite part...

[JUanBOBO]

ah yes sarcasm

[higurashi65]

were can i dowload this song i want this version!!!

[RazaDeDios]

um try looking for it on limewire thats were i got it from

[WeDunnoWTFisGoingOn]

I was about to say "You just need to take Necrofantasia and there is your off vocal version", but this version sounds more like the remix it is and has it's own personality to it. Thanks for posting this. :) <3 Border of Death.

[G1rlyG1rl900]

i really like this song!

and also "marisa stole the precious thing" from iosys to!

but i do not like anime!

sorry for those lovers but ya.......

the characters look kewl

[Nesaru]

Thankfully, Touhou is not an anime, but a game. So you can admire the coolness of the characters, the amazing amount of bullets on one screen and the extraordinary music.

[Northbergh]

"The amazing amount of bullets on one screeen", that one made me lol. ^^

[mechacassarenas]

It's not really amazing. It's staggering, frightening and, to someone that hasn't played any game before, brutally discouraging.

But it's still exciting to the rest of us, tho.

[NoAsking]

Although its not one, there IS a fan-made anime in production. Episode 1 is out.

Its actually pretty damn good.

[Aeraknight]

I can almost hear the vocals to the song though, but it sounds great as an instrumental too!

[foodyunmyV2]

This version is better then one with vocal.

You get catch the best part of the music, the true music art the creator of IOSYS manage to get in there music.

Thanks for the upload!!

[ShinyMawile]

Oh dear god, I want a MP3 of this. So much. So nice.

[ikura0uchiha]

@ShinyMawile go to listentoyoutube (dot) com

Mp3 with high quality

[puzzlechu]

@ShinyMawile make one o3o

[rebolledo2kx]

just for curiosity: where you find this?

[TheBarrelMan2]

If you have a good audio editing program, it is possible to remove the vocal track from the recoding. Remember that all modern songs are recorded in multiple tracks which are mixed together after they are all recorded.

Bloody brilliant, though, I must say. Nice job uploading this.

[numb3r3]

Actually i think IOSYS released a karaoke version of their songs

[TheBarrelMan2]

"i think IOSYS released a karaoke version of their songs"

The worst part is, I figured that out just after I posted that comment, lol.

[LavingtonShitMuggy]

Epic.

[1fireangel]
