At last, all those months of toiling and tailoring had paid off, to a degree that I felt it just clicked in right, and also ready for an arrangement album release. Here's my long-overdue spacesynth remix of Eirin's boss theme from Touhou Eiyashou (東方永夜抄) ~ Imperishable Night., entirely done on OpenMPT, for that matter*. Even if the final product might lack some bite and a bit disorganized in terms of structure and sound variety, it would be a step in my continuing journey in the creative realms, especially beyond this kind of genre.

*The final mastered mix adds more to the tracker meat - namely, the addition of VSTs to bring it up to an authentically-passable spacesynth tune. It's coming not only to NG and SC, but also to the aforementioned album, on time for either Reitaisai, Comiket, or any local cosplay/fan convention near you!

Even though it's not meant to be this level of finished, I did gift this module to my assigned Secret Santa at the Halfy & Winks Discord, right around Christmas eve.

"One chance to finally shatter a false reality, striking the heavens and cosmos above... burning upwards as a radioactive SUPERNOVA!!!"

It's time once again, and for a long-worked on surprise, for me to cover such a phenomenal boss song from vivid/statis, all done within OpenMPT for the past five and a half months; this time around, I self-made a fannish jacket based on it and its context in-game. I hope you enjoyed my rather unique take on this one!

Me and Kasamiku's rejected entry for vivid/statis' last rhythm game contest, Sunset Serenade, and also a heartfelt tribute to everything both this unique game and its vibrant community stands for. I guess it's my first official attempt at something completely outside my usual bounds of calm. This version in particular is slightly more extended than Kasa's, and yet embodies the same instrumentation as the finalized mix. The entire module surprisingly went above 100 MB in size, so I guess it won't be in TMA for logical reasons.

Enjoy the thumps and hymns, by the way! Oh, and, I would be surprised if this gets charted (probably in non-commercial RGs) someday!

My own humble aural offering for #CirnoDay2024 this year, and a quite special one at that: a first-of-the-heard spacesynth trackertune cover/remix of Cirno's theme (Beloved Tomboyish Girl) from ZUN's Touhou 6 (Embodiment of Scarlet Devil), with all the bells, triumphant leads, and thumping beats reminiscent of being within an interplanetary ride, with both my and Touhou flavors combined. 'Cause, y'know, Cirno likes frosty spaces, even worlds?

Had this one lying around for quite a while now (more than half a year, actually), and it's now kinda sounding moreso of a proper early-spacesynth-esque rendition of this emotionally-cosmic track by Derivakat and Netrum.

What else did those gremlin-looking aliens look up to when they headed towards that famed Kefrens pyramid hours ago? Maybe a danger far superior to the latter, or simply their home galaxy countless light-years away?

In anticipation of the underrated rhythm game-visual novel-ARG hybrid vivid/statis' first anniversary, I've taken upon it myself to make this trackertune cover of the equally-underrated Chapter 1 song "Fixations Toward the Stars" by Foodbot, in the style and instrumentation of the Desert Dream intro tune (by Laxity/Merge). Again, this is me again delving into yet-unknown territory, yet with sureness and enthusiasm with the direction I'm venturing. Also, go play vivid/statis if you do like an intriguing scifi, metafictional story, strong bangin' songs to play through, and funny yuri representation, amongst all other stuff beneath its surface!

And here I'm back with another trackertune cover, this time of the highly-adrenaline-pumping Lap 2 track "The Death That I Deservioli" by Mr. Sauceman, in OpenMPT, but with my own flair to it, in lieu of the crazy effects and modulations of the original. Missing the game's 1st anniversary by a far lot, though, I really love how this all ties up in the end, bespoke of an oven-fresh whole hawaiian pizza.

Go check out both Pizza Tower and its wackily creative soundtrack, if you can!

Second time strikes a bigger charm, and certainly not just with glowsticks and sleigh bells!

This is an overdue update on my earlier cover of this virtual-idol concert theme tune by @dixieflatlineVOC two years ago, of which the latter closely followed its verse flow with different samples. This time, however, I leaned towards classic spacesynth songs, namely Laserdance's "Excitation", for some inspiration, and injected new blood onto this revisiting, thus the additional V.2 in the video title, and the revamped sample set, too. Now, it sounds more full and brimming of that dance floor energy, merging the past and the future's musical styles bespoke of a well-boiled pot of oriental vegetable soup. As always, have a humanely-compassionate, safe holiday, everyone, regardless of time zone and location!

Also, in a first for this channel, oscilloscope views are also going to the fray soon, with this one getting that treatment in my own flair. Stay watch...

Since my last chiptune-style cover, I have considerably improved on my tracker music skills a fair bit, so why not do another of Firechild's tracks in that particular style?
