Special thanks to Gyoza for the wonderful fanart of Konngara. I’m sure she too needs some fanart as well lol.
My note:
It’s important to take some rest for a while. I needed a bit of time off since I kinda got stuck with other important things… But anyways, a HUGE, major improvement for this composition. Compared to the original which was too short and pretty terrible with the tempo change, this one expanded greatly (although too greatly lol 11 minutes long… sorry…) adding in better instruments and much better clarity with some cool Japanese vibes for this song. I wanted to improve this one again because of the tempo change in this song. Again, I did a terrible job with the original, trying to scramble on how to make it fast. Of course, I waited long enough to improve this song cause I knew it was begging to be remade. And what did I expect, so much better than the previous one. Though if there are any minimal mistakes, let me know.
Hmm… the last few music I released didn’t seem to have that much progression lately… I guess it’s YouTube… It is what it is… hopefully this one will pick up the slack. But because of this…well, I did say that Faint Dream ~ Inanimate Dream is also coming up next. After that, I have a preview special coming soon… I can’t tell you what it is unfortunately. Ah just kidding, I do have plans for making some new Touhou Windows era and CD music. No need for voting, this time I’ll be the one picking a random song from the Windows and CD era that will get a nice remix. Though, what are your predictions for what songs I’ll be making? Comment it out, perhaps your comments might end up getting chosen…
Take it easy, everyone! Make sure to always take a break. I really needed one because I was struggling to make this theme that I got fresh out of ideas. This time, things will get even better!
Oh yes, there’s timestamps too! Y’all can scroll which favorite part you like to hear.
