Recorded on a real SC-88Pro. ® ZUN / 上海アリス幻樂団
Years ago, ZUN's site had a page called "東方幻想的音楽", where MIDI files made for the Roland SC-88Pro could be downloaded for free. Between 1999 and 2001, ZUN posted arrange versions of many PC-98 Touhou Project tracks and arranged the entire Seihou Shuusou Gyoku OST. He also posted the Torte Le Magic OST and 6 tracks known as "ZUN's Strange Works". They only sound as intended on this module.

The PC-98 arrangements include select tracks from 東方靈異伝 ～ The Highly Responsive to Prayers (Touhou 1), 東方封魔録 ～ the Story of Eastern Wonderland (Touhou 2), 東方夢時空 ～ Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream (Touhou 3), 東方幻想郷 ～ Lotus Land Story (Touhou 4) and 東方怪綺談 ～ Mystic Square (Touhou 5). Please don't call these "remix" or "remastered". These words don't mean what you think they do!

ZUN's comment:

I tried my best to give it an eastern feel... That would've been nice, but then it didn't really sound like a song for shooters, so I took it out.

The song itself was really close to the image that I originally had...
But that means, the image that I had wasn't fit for an shooter in the first place. (laughs)
But it's rather to my likings.

The image for the song I had in in mind was starting as easy listening and moving to jazz-fusion. There are lots of good Japanese-made jazz out there too (unless they try to mimic songs from foreign artists.)

On a side note, when I used this song as an Extra stage track, I couldn't dodge the mid-boss's attaacks. (^^;
As I thought, there was a problem with the feeling. I can't dodge if there is no music.

おもいっきし東風に仕上げようと・・・、したのはいいんですが、ＳＴＧ曲としてはノリがいまいちだったので没。

曲自体は最初のイメージに近い感じになってよかったのですが・・・
ってことは、最初のイメージの時点でＳＴＧ向きじゃなかったのね（笑）
でも、曲は割と好み。

イメージ的には、イージーリスニングからジャズフュージョンに移行していくような感じです。和製ジャズってのも（外人の曲を真似しようとしなければ）格好いいものも多いですよね。

ちなみに、エキストラがこの曲だったときは中ボスの攻撃が避けれなかったです(^^;; やっぱり、ノリ？　曲無しでプレイすると弾避けられないしね。
