I'm sure none of you expected this to be the next video in line (lies). As probably the most different game in the series, HRtP has always been deserving of a little attention.
Check Jynx's blog for a link to their Lotus Land Story remaster CD. Definitely worth the price, and it may encourage them to put more of their work up for sale.

Once again, Jynx delivers his/her remaster of one of the PC-98 games. This time, it's Story of Eastern Wonderland, aka the easiest final stage in the entire series.
Love for Mima aside, I'm personally more interested in the extra stage for this one...

The next in Jynx's lineup, the always-precious Phantasmagoria of Dimensional Dream. Rather than the full campaign mode, this April Fools' version seems to be a kind of boss-rush mode, where several of the characters assault you one after another. I'm curious as to what will replace the EX stage that he typically releases at Christmas time.

As for the BGM's for this and the previous videos, JynX says that he's gotten so many requests that he'll release them all together soon. When time opens in his schedule, he'll be working on it.

ZUN: "I figured I'd do a nice, rhythmical Japanese piece while trying to get better. Well, the rehabilitation was a failure...
But the song turned out really nice (^ ^) I guess I just really like this kind of song (since I can only make this kind).
...Let's meet again, in the next song."

ZUN: "I tried my best to give it an eastern feel... That would've been nice, but then it didn't really sound like a song for shooters, so I took it out.
The song itself was really close to the image that I originally had...
But that means, the image that I had wasn't fit for an shooter in the first place. (laughs)
But it's rather to my likings.
The image for the song I had in in mind was starting as easy listening and moving to jazz-fusion. There are lots of good Japanese-made jazz out there too (unless they try to mimic songs from foreign artists.)
On a side note, when I used this song as an Extra stage track, I couldn't dodge the mid-boss's attaacks. (^^;
As I thought, there was a problem with the feeling. I can't dodge if there is no music."

"I tried to copy the atmosphere of the Dolls in Pseudo Paradise version, but gave up. It ended up like this, but it's incomplete."
- The remixer
Even incomplete, a remix of this song - one with such importance to the series - can't be left ignored. It's the origin.

Instrumentation: Me
Original Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKBu9CCgSgY
ZUN: The song that plays during daytime endings. It definitely makes me think of shrines. Actually, this is the most shrine-maiden-ish song here, isn't it? See, doesn't this kind of song always play for shrines and shrine maidens in eroge? *g*
This is an often overlooked or forgotten song, possibly because it was originally so short. The midi that 藁い袋 created was much appreciated, but it had more of a "Player's Score" or "Bad Ending" kind of feeling than a Good Ending Theme. I tried to blend the depth and expansiveness of the midi with the serenity of the original but...I'm still not convinced that ended up happening ^^'
Also: ZUN, why are you basing your songs off of H-game soundtracks?...

The sudden Sariel arranges seem to go on forever. Perhaps they will. Perhaps this shall be your new reality, continuing eternally from Now, Until the Moment You Die... *shot*
In all honesty, this is the last one for now, though I'm disappointed it is. Even after four versions, none of them seem to match the climactic intensity that so distinguished the original. Or maybe I'm just impossible to please sometimes.

The lack of Sariel pictures has really left me unprepared for this sudden outbreak of arranges. And still I don't have an arrange that fits the best image I've found. How depressing...

ZUN: Hmm. It's a song that feels like there's no reason for hopes or dreams. At least when I know I can't make bright songs, the bad end song will come out well. Except the good end feels like a bad end, too.

It's strange that there's a Western-style mansion in the middle of a deserted forest to begin with. The girl who lived there hardly ever came into town. But, lately, I've seen a girl who looks like her daughter.
How do I know she had a daughter?
Well, since the girl looks like she did when she was young...

ZUN: She isn't human, either ...
When I'm making up characters, I'll write down a bunch on paper, and just choose some. This character has a pretty loli feel about her, but... The song is unusually cool. I said this before, but I'm not that good at making cute songs. This song turned out the same way... A cuter song would have been nice for this character...
Aahhhh, all the songs feel kind of half-assed~ (It's cool, but it's got kind of girly instrumentation in it... ) Oh, well, it's okay.
I guess I like this kind of song, after all.

Oh well, it's pretty short... (The song, the development time, and the comments.)

I was aiming for a song that had the right blend of coolness and cuteness. The main melody is pretty easy to remember, so the song has a nice feel to it.
It's a pretty good song."
