Seihou Shuusou Gyoku prototype, featuring Frontal Attack (lost music by ZUN)

Romantique Tp 2018-03-22 | This is the 1999 Seihou Shuusou Gyoku prototype, which features a previously never heard before composition by ZUN, Frontal Attack.

Recorded by Seihou's creator, pbg. Unfortunately, the video is pretty noisy and the Windows MIDI synthesizer (MS GS) is used.

Plastic Space and Inventive City were posted by ZUN on his site, and I recorded them on intended hardware (SC-88Pro):

ZUN's comment:

で、聴いてのとおり、こんな馬鹿みたいに激しくて暗い曲も無いだろう、と言う曲です。
少年少女十字軍の勇ましさと、大人を信じて騙された無念の塊なのです

そろそろ、ゲーム用曲ばっかじゃなくて、ＨＰで公開できるような曲が創りたくて創りました。
今回は、Midi 版にする気力が無いので、生データそのままで

久しぶりに好きな様に曲を創ってみたんですが、最近、人目を恐れて適当に創れない事が多く、
これでは、セオリーばかりの無難な曲しか創れなくなると危機感を感じたので、思い切って感覚だけで弾いてみました。
結果として、物凄く稚拙なところもありますが、私的には楽しく作曲でき満足です(^^;
（人様に聞かせるようなものではないかも）

絵の場合、ちょっとしたもので落書きってものがありますよね。曲の場合は、なんていえば良いんでしょうか？
私が、ＵＰしてるものはまさに、それなんですよね(^^;（３～４時間作品だし）

いずれ、落曲(落書きのような曲）だけじゃなくて、ちゃんとしたの創るべきですね(^^;

Thank you for downloading this song.

This is "Eastern Strange Discourse" from Highly Responsive to Prayers.

This song is, to me, one of the most historic (well, it's really just old (^^;), so I play it every now and then, such that I've gotten quite used to it.

But when I tried to arrange it, it was pretty difficult. In reality, it's pretty faithful to the original. The original MIDI version (unreleased), as opposed to the FM version. In those days, I was satisfied with just creating a melody that I thought up, so... (^^;

This song was also the opportunity for me to start the Touhou Project and stuff. Since I wanted to create a mix of an eastern and western feel in my songs. It fills me with emotion. Seriously. (Well, maybe not the tune itself, but... (^^;)

Well then, let us meet again in the next song, shall we? ZUN

この曲は、私の中でもっとも歴史のある（つーか、古いだけ(^^;）曲の一つで事あるごとに弾いてる、もう弾き慣れた曲です。

でも、アレンジし直すとなるとなかなか苦労しました。実はかなりオリジナルに忠実です。オリジナルはＦＭ音源版より前のMIDI版（未発表）で、あの頃は、自分で考えてたメロディが流れるだけで満足だったんですが(^^;

私が東方Project を始めたのもこの曲がきっかけだったりします。東洋風な曲を創りたかったのですしね。感慨深いです。ほんと。（っつー、曲調でもないが(^^;）

Thank you for downloading this song.

This is "Reincarnation" from Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream.

I tried again with the mp3. In fact, playing with 8850 does not produce this sound, so be aware. Please also try the mp3 even though you have 8850.

So, I tried to arrange without disrupting the original song too much. or so I think. When I first made this a long time ago I didn't think too much of what sound of the instrument to use, especially in FM, so might have become a totally different song (^ ^ ; I guess I am saying that it is delicious in one way or the other

Rather than the orchestra, it was finished in the feeling that you hear in the rhythmic ensemble. I think I deal with strings of classics better than the guitar strings of rock. No, really.

Well, what I can I say, I really want to actually play the strings (^ ^;

ZUN's comment:

Thank you for downloading this song.

This is "Peaceful Romancer" from Mystic Square.

Since the song was too different, too, I was eventually had it reworked again.

At the end of the day, this song was my last in composing using FM sound. This is actually where I was going to seal my Doujin activities by the mark of this song, but no matter what I do, I could not wash my hands clean (^ ^;

Since it would have been the last, I was enthusiastically working myself for composing a bright and Eastern song, (^^;; but the arrange ended up with a dark feeling of sadness and apathy. (song was not bright after all)

Anyways, this is a finale ending song where Touhou Project itself lowers its curtains, and is quite emotional. Yes, it's true that this song is quite sad that so few people will ever get to hear it since it cannot be heard unless Extra Stage is cleared (^^;

Well then, let us meet again in the next song, shall we? ZUN

あまりにも別の曲になりすぎたので、結局もう一度作り直してしまいました。

なんと言っても、私はこの曲を最後にＦＭ音源で作曲をしていません。事実上この曲を最後に私の同人活動も封印したつもりだったんですが、足を洗えぬものよのう(^^;

当時この曲は、最後だから明るくて軽快で東洋風な曲を創ろう、と意気込んで、結局明るくならなかった曲ですが(^^; 、アレンジではどこか切なさすら感じてしまう様な暗めの曲に仕上げました。

とにかく、これは東方Project そのもののエンディング曲の様な物で感慨深いですね。もっとも、エキストラステージクリアしなければ見れない、という見た人少なそうななかなか寂しい曲ですが(^^;

Marie's theme.
I thought this song would be the biggest mismatch, but it looks like it ended up matching the character. It sounds heavy, but yet the rhythm runs light and smooth.
There's a really hard to explain sort of feel in this song (^^;

I'm guessing this song is the most successful in embodying the character.
Regardless of the midi version, the wav version sounds romantic.
Just kidding, not really.
The holy knight in the song title is, needless to say, Joan of Arc.
She's one wicked highness, who goes well with the catchphrase "Flash sword!"

Things suddenly sound mature now (^^;
These difficult to remember melody lines are something that I like.

Compared to the one I released during summer, I think this one is less serious.
Pseudoclassic means imitating old traditions. The Cembalo (Harpsichord) is used in this song
to give it a somewhat old and Jazzy feeling.
I'm in preference of writing "ギコ的" over "擬古的". (^^;。
Orphic refers to anything that pertains to Orpheus. It has nothing to do with
the song (Oh).

　擬古的というのをギコ的と表記すると、かなり嫌(^^;。

Gates' theme song from the earlier game (Shuusou Gyoku) was "Firmament Army", so
his theme song for this game is "Castle Explorer" (Or should I say...... Sort of?)
Major point about this song is that it does not feel at all like his theme song.

It reads "Biroodoshoujosen". Yeah, like that.
The song itself has nothing to do with the title (kind of like a fusion music too)
After all, its merit is in its completion (laughs)

Erich's theme.
Hahaha now isn't this amazing(lol)
I wanted to make this to an old man's image, but it became a gentle book loving girl's image.
In the first place, it doesn't sound like a song for a STG (^^;

My maid, sweet maid indeed.
I wonder if maids are indeed sweet. Well, probably not that tasty since all they do is
clean and wash clothes. Too bad.
Since they say the mad cow disease started from forcing carnivorous diets on vegetarians
I'll need a change of mood (What the heck?).

It's Japanese style -de gozaru.
It'd be lonely to have a game without a Asian sort of song. (laughs)
It's a light and fun song, which is very rare for me (no, really).
Fashionable (really?).

It reads "Ouka no Koizuka". It's original Japanese, or semi-Japanese?
Anyways, I wanted to make a Touhou song, but there weren't that many Touhou songs
actually so this is precious to me.
To begin with, there aren't that many exciting songs. It's one of the New Age.

Muse's theme.
I don't know if it sounds like a last-boss song, but it's a last-boss song that sounds quite trendy. (^^;

A piece just like that for a boss fight--or should I say, about 76% of the boss fight.
I like the improvisation on the piano part. However, you rarely see any faults of
this song in any other songs composed by me.
Probably it's just the melody.
The "Enigmatic Doll" here is, literally, a weird doll.
Probably a magical doll.

SC-88Pro (SC-55 mode) - the Grimoire of Alice (Cover by 紫電) - 東方怪綺談～ Mystic Square - Touhou MIDI

Romantique Tp 2016-11-03 | This is the oldest known Touhou music fanwork, a MIDI cover of The Grimoire of Alice, the extra boss theme from 東方怪綺談～ Mystic Square, by 紫電. It was released in January 2000, beating other fan-made covers, arrange versions or remixes by over a year.

This file was made for the SC-55 Sound Canvas, and it was contributed to ZUN's site back when he was accepting music submissions. The SC-88 and SC-88Pro have compatibility issues with MIDI files made for the SC-55, but this is how ZUN would have heard it.

The first Touhou arrange was probably made by Y.GORO!! in late 2001.

The real reason why Mt. Fuji wasn't chosen as a world heritage site is because it's so
sacred that even the world could not choose it. Speaking of which, stop littering on it.

The capital on the far side of the moon. A history so long that Gensokyo's can't compare
in the least. And that capital is slowly but surely......

This is Eirin Yagokoro's theme.
Impossible courage, ferocity, and vigor--
This theme combines all of those, making for a ridiculously foolish and energetic song.
All the energy and foolishness culminates in the final boss (really?), so the act itself of putting this song in a shmup is lunacy.

The Japanese Cinderella's hidden cage is such that no matter how hard you try, you
cannot force the princess out. That's the fault of the Kagome.
However, one word from a celestial opens all the doorways.

This is the Stage 5 theme.
Asian, Western, old, new-- This song isn't one or the other. The boss seems that way, too, but the stage itself is based in Japanese horror.
Each song has a theme, and this one's is based on the song "Kagome, Kagome". It's not an arrangement, just composed with a similar theme.
I didn't want to get caged in on a theme for this one.

ZUN's comment:

A neverending night.
The night that the player has tampered with starts to show it's influence on the varied
surroundings. The time for repentance has come.

This is the Stage 4 theme.
This song is an arrangement of the game's title screen theme. It's a nice tune with a very quick tempo.
For the end, I put in a laughing sound, like that of a youkai. However, it's unnatural to hear it where it it should not be creepy.
Altogether, the rhythm is odd. I feel there's a hint of encroaching madness in it.
-

　　終わらない夜。
　　プレイヤーが弄った夜は、様々なところに影響を与え始めたらしい。
　　その報いを受ける時が来た。

４面のテーマです。
この曲はこのゲームのテーマ曲でもあるタイトル画面曲の編曲となっています。非常に短くテンポが良い曲です。
終盤、妖怪の鳴き声の様な笑い声の様な音も入っていますが、おどろおどろしくならない所が普通ではない。
全体的に拍子もおかしい。少しずつ狂気が見えて来る気がする。

ZUN's comment:

Already, a song title unrelated to the story.
A girl clothed in black crosses my path.

This is Marisa Kirisame's Theme.
At this point, this song isn't all nostalgic or anything. It's an arrange of an old tune from the second game, Story of Eastern Wonderland.
I was wondering if this theme still suited Marisa, and what shocked me is that it totally did. It's rare to see someone so unchanged.
Marisa has 5 themes, but I think this one suits her best.

　　もはや、ストーリーと無関係の曲名。
　　我が道を行くのは、黒い少女か。

霧雨魔理沙のテーマです。
ここまで行くと懐かしいもへったくれも無い曲です。封魔録は第２弾ですからねぇ。そんな昔の曲のアレンジです。
今の魔理沙でこの曲だと違和感あるかな、と思ったら何にも違和感無くてびっくり。こんなに変わらない人間も珍しいです。
魔理沙のテーマ曲は５曲あるんですけどこれが一番それっぽいかな。

ZUN's comment:

A dream battle.
　　The dream is Reimu's dream. Definitely not the player's dream.

This is Reimu Hakurei's theme.
If you're wondering why this theme is nostalgic, it's an arrangement of a song from a few years ago. It's an arranged version of Reimu's Stage 4 boss theme from the fourth game, Lotus Land Story.
The patterns in Stage 4 closely resembles those of Lotus Land Story, so I thought I'd do a similar song and give some people deja vu.
The other theme for this game is "An Old Memory Called Fantasy".

　　夢想戦。
　　Dreamは霊夢の夢。決してプレイヤーの夢ではない。

ZUN's comment:

Meant to be an arranged version of Ran's theme, it ended up quite different. This one has an ominous feeling. Or rather, she's the very embodiment of ominous. Even compared with the past characters, she has a devious appearance, a dubious character and thoughtless danmaku. The theme's just like her: devious (lol).
-

藍のテーマの編曲のつもりだったけど、割と別の曲に。こっちの方は、禍々しい感じが少し混じっています。というか、キャラ自体が禍々しさの塊みたいなもんです。今までのキャラの中でも、胡散臭い風貌、信用できない性格、非常識な弾幕。そういうキャラの曲なので、とても胡散臭い（笑）

I composed it to be more dazzling than fantastic. Hopefully you'll get the sense of the energetic youkai from the song. In my opinion, when there's a long fight in a shooting game, the music should repeat and sustain its tempo. That is, it should be like this theme.

A high-paced theme (?) which is unusual in the Touhou series. It's obvious from the stage that the tempo and feel are the keys to this song. The tone turns around about 112 degrees in the middle of the song which is where Extra really starts (heh).

The final stage is all about the final boss, so the mid-stage is only a token effort. Because of that, this song is rather short, but it's also refreshing and pleasant (in my opinion). The stage has visual imagery of flying over a sea of cherry blossoms; I hope this song will give you the same impression.

The style is more Chinese than Japanese. A wonderful place above the clouds. As the true beginning of this game, stage 4 is far longer than the others. There's never been such a stratospheric (it's not that high) intrusion with violent yet sorrowful music, has there? While I composed it with "Journey to the West" in mind, it doesn't resemble that.

This is the rackmount sound module version of the U-20 keyboard, which has an updated version of the U-110 synth engine and the sounds from the SN-U110-08 Synthesizer and SN-U110-09 Guitar & Keyboard expansion cards already included. Due to hardware limitations, only two extra expansion cards/boards can be used at once instead of the four that the previous module was capable of. Some of the sounds from these modules also appear on the CM-64, D-70 and MV-30. Its acoustic instruments were for the most part noticeably better sounding than those from the Korg M1, which made this module very popular among video game music composers.

The sounds from this module were created and edited by Eric Persing's team in the mid 80's. He would also contribute to the extremely popular JV-1080 and SR-JV80 sample libraries in the early 90's, and a few years later found Spectrasonics.

ZUN's Touhou/Seihou MIDIs on the SC-88Pro: shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,18989.0.html

The SC-8850 is a small upgrade to the SC-88Pro, featuring a stereo version of the 88Pro piano and new stereo strings. The 88Pro solo brasses, clarinet and oboe now have velocity-based sample switching on the 8850 MAP. Other new sounds include a new harpsichord, clavi, music box, tubular bell, santur, harmonica, acoustic bass, sitar and some new organ variations. Most of these sounds were getting a little long in the tooth, but they're aren't used often enough for this to be a big deal. It also has a few new poorly programmed ethnic instruments and drums many people didn't like. Most of the new presets are filler SFX and ethnic percussion.

The 8850 is infamous for playing MIDIs from other Sound Canvases (even the 88Pro) incorrectly. If you're interested on listening to other people's work, I strongly recommend you to get the 88Pro instead.

ZUN's Touhou/Seihou MIDIs on the SC-88Pro: shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,18989.0.html

The SC-8850 is a small upgrade to the SC-88Pro, featuring a stereo version of the 88Pro piano and new stereo strings. The 88Pro solo brasses, clarinet and oboe now have velocity-based sample switching on the 8850 MAP. Other new sounds include a new harpsichord, clavi, music box, tubular bell, santur, harmonica, acoustic bass, sitar and some new organ variations. Most of these sounds were getting a little long in the tooth, but they're aren't used often enough for this to be a big deal. It also has a few new poorly programmed ethnic instruments and drums many people didn't like. Most of the new presets are filler SFX and ethnic percussion.

The 8850 is infamous for playing MIDIs from other Sound Canvases (even the 88Pro) incorrectly. If you're interested on listening to other people's work, I strongly recommend you to get the 88Pro instead.
