No. 1 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_01/en]]
Arrangement of #REDIRECT [[tdb:th_main/en]]

@

This is the title screen theme. I envisioned this song with the same atmosphere as the previous games. I feel it's more ‘Genso-like’, but it's very Gensokyo. Can we really say ‘Genso-like’ is an abbreviation for ‘Gensokyo-like’?

Well, as far as title themes go, this is one of my favourites.

No. 2 #REDIRECT [[tdb:mcd_02_05/en]]
Duplicate of the same theme from Ghostly Field Club

@

This is the Stage 1 theme. I reckon it's a good idea to give the first stage a catchy little number, but whilst it's pretty upbeat, it's rather dark. But Imperishable Night's about night and youkai, so its darkness fits. This song is part of ‘Ghostly Field Club’, so many of you might know it.

The darkness in Stage 1 doesn't bode very well.

No. 3 Stirring an Autumn Moon ~ Mooned Insect

@

This is Wriggle Nightbug's theme. It feels so explosively Eastern as always. I created it with the innocence of an energetic child mixed with the images of night and insects. 40 per cent small, wriggling insects. All the MIDI versions are extras, not just this song. Please listen to the

WAV if possible. There's an element of fantasy that just isn't in the MIDI.

No. 5 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_05/en]]

@

This is Mystia Lorelei's theme. She's just the Stage 2 boss, but this song makes her sound like a powerful foe. The theme has nothing to do with mystery, birds, night or anything weird like that. I just made this song to be cute and magnificent.

And it doesn't make her seem too evil.

No. 6 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_06/en]]

@

This is the Stage 3 theme. This one's so nostalgic... I'm sure those who are familiar with Touhou's older works will recognise it, but it sounds like a song I did a few years ago. I made it in the same way, so it's very nostalgic, but what good is it if it's only nostalgic to me? (laugh)

This theme is a bit out of place. It has some of the 80s flavour in it.

No. 8 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_08/en]]
Arrangement of #REDIRECT [[tdb:th_main/en]]

No. 9 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_09/en]]
Arrangement of #REDIRECT [[tdb:th04_10/en]] from Lotus Land Story

@

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 déjà vu.

The other theme for this game is ‘An Old Memory Called Fantasy’.

No. 10 Love-Coloured Master Spark
Arrangement of Love-coloured Magic from Story of Eastern Wonderland

@

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 utterly did. It's rare to see someone so unchanged.

Marisa has 5 themes, but I reckon this one suits her best.

No. 11 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_11/en]]

@

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 on 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.

No. 12 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_12/en]]

@

This is Reisen Udongein Inaba's theme. When you think of a boss in the final stages of Touhou, this is what comes to mind. Guess some things never change. (laugh) After the wild intro, there's a mournful melody in the middle before the hook breaks through.

Ah, all the characters look like they're having so much fun.

No. 13 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_13/en]]

@

This is the Stage 6 theme. The 20th century voyagers. The Noah's Ark of the 20th century flew into space, carrying with it hopes and fears. However, it seems that just its hopes were left behind on the Moon. Here in the ‘future’, in the 21st century, only fears and a handful

of illusions seem to be all that remain.

No. 14 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_14/en]]

@

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

I didn't want to get caged in on a theme for this one.

No. 15 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_15/en]]

@

This is Kaguya Houraisan's theme. Boy, she really is mad, eh? (laugh) This song brings out a feeling of losing one's cool. I don't express emotions through songs, I make songs with emotions. And really, the game makes the songs. They're not very cool and modern, are they? (Haha)

I'll admit I'm no pro.

No. 16 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_16/en]]

@

No. 17 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_17/en]]

@

This is the Extra Stage theme. It's kind of relaxed for one, eh? It feels like a test of courage that wouldn't scare anybody. (No, it doesn't.) I'm actually a little unsure about it, but it's extended.

I collected E, X, T, E, N and D and extended it.

No. 18 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_18/en]]

@

This is Mokou Fujiwara's theme. I've tried to bring out as much intimidation, power and coolness I could that some shadiness came out. But even if the song isn't shady, the character certainly is.

I always like kicking it old school for the Extra Boss song. This time around I really kicked it.

No. 20 #REDIRECT [[tdb:th08_20/en]]
Arrangement of #REDIRECT [[tdb:th03_19/en]] from Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream

@

This is the credits theme. I added a little nostalgia to this one. ‘Maple’, such an old memory. This theme is loaded with old memories.

But there's far too few staff.
