東方Touhou [Symphonic] The Doll Maker of Bucuresti
276I may have found an Alice arrangement that finally makes me understand what people see in her themes. More importantly however, I found a newer orchestral circle which easily rivals Aqua Style, Tutti Sound, Oriens and Ara with their arrangements: Ocha Phil. I had a lot of trouble picking what to upload from this album to not share every single track!
We've all heard of metal with some orchestra, but how about orchestra with some metal? Damn, that section starting 1:04 really blasts this arrangement into new spheres. The drums, the whistly flutes, the choir - it's all fantastic! Every one of the tracks on this album have wonderfully diverse soundscapes and each verse has its own pacing and mood, never falling into repetition or mediocrity.
What an incredible and unexpected addition to the orchestral touhou library! I will share at least one other track from Ocha Phil. It's too good to ignore.
