Q: Is this meant to be taken seriously?
A: Look at the upload date.
I couldn't find any Touhou fangame final boss themes with a structure long enough to support 17 steps, so I had to resort to Len'en. I mean, Len'en-style still falls under the umbrella of Touhou-style, right?
(Yes, I know Blue Devil in the Belvedere's final boss theme exists. No, I didn't feel like doing it, because it's actually two songs mushed into a single OST slot.)
...You know, I wasn't even originally planning to compose anything this year. But then I saw the overwhelmingly warm reception to the announcement video and realized that it would be a really bad look if everyone else put in so much effort while I sat around doing nothing.
So yeah, I guess I kinda felt obligated to make this after all.
Definitely don't expect me to do one next year though. I know I said that last year too, but 17 to 19 is an even bigger jump than 15 to 17.

SttJ got bashed hard when it came out for many reasons, not the least of which was because its music sucked.
Somehow, I’ve managed to find myself as the composer for SttJ, so now I’m slowly working to “fix Sparen’s mistakes” and replace its OST.
I managed to finish 5 songs in time for the first update.
“SeitenTouji 1 - Adamantine Memory Blade is a third person Touhou-style shoot-em-up game featuring an all-male cast in the world of Daiten Daichi. Play as Teiki Tetsurou and discover this unfamiliar world while also perhaps saving its fragile peace in the process.”

Music Room comment:
Upon being told to make a slow and solemn theme, my mind immediately went
to Len’en. Apparently that just means dropping the 3rd from all my chords and
spamming strings and low pianos. I don’t know why, but it gives the song an
“earthy” sound, perfect for solemn, fateful final stage themes.
