I love Touhou arrangements; I normally don't listen to rock or electro, but every once in a while, I get caught up on a certain arrangement by ShibayanRecords.

Usually, though, I'm more for the lower-key stuff, such as instrumental vocals, and lots of orchestral.

Of course, Kitsune's Workshop (I prefer to call them by that name, still) is one of my favourite circles! And since Satori popped up up there...

And finally, here's a main series composition I've recently spent way too much time listening to.

Is it just me, or is Mamizou way underrated? I mean, she's an "extremely powerful" shape-shifting tanuki who was brought in by an extra stage character to beat up the Miko group.

Btw Aqua have you played Gensou Shoujo Taisen? Its a series of games of Touhou in a story mode, there are 3 games ;3.

The First game: Gensou Shoujo Taisen Kou contains the arc of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil.
The Second game: Gensou Shoujo Taisen You contains the arc of Mountain of Faith, Immaterial and Missing Power and Perfect Cherry Blossom.
The Third game: Gensou Shoujo Taisen Ei contains the arc of Imperishable Night, Silent Sinner in Blue and Subterrean Animism.

I have finished Kou and Ei, but i can't finish You by a glitch >->

AAA those tacks are amazing! Sometimes GSTs are all we need. >u< You guys share some great stuff too!
@[member="Totalheartsboy"] As for Gensou Shoujo Taisen, I haven't played it but I have watched gameplay of it! It looks really fun though, so I might look into it, especially with such great soundtracks.

Speaking of those here's some more to share!

I believe this is a remix of the song before fighting Hong Meiling? I forget the exact name, Eastern something something. I love REDALiCE's works

EastNewSound never seems to disappoint either, that's for sure! This singer did a great job mimicking Utsuho.

and I know we've all heard an abundance of U.N.Owen tracks but honestly...this is beautiful and needs to be heard.

@[member="8-Bit-Eevee"] I love Mamizou! I feel as though she's ridiculously underrated... I wonder why she was so disregarded, it seemed? Either way, those arranges are really great too!

[member='AquawindLugia'] FELT is a great circle! They always make such ambient tracks! Also, [member='Totalheartsboy'], I went and tried out Gensou Shoujo and now I can't stop playing it, haha. I just finished off Cirno, but not after sustaining heavy damage due to too many 50% chances not hitting.

Murasa! White Lotus is one of my favorite albums; it's short, but has great arrangements by Liz Triangle!

Also, here's something beautiful too, still by FELT, but on Miko's theme:

I found another remix of Lunatic Princess in a fast mode:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8NyugdzRmE

It's pretty great!!! ;3! Since her original theme that sounds calm and slow is tranformed into a loud and quick theme.
