7 years late, but here. You certainly did an excellent job imbuing the sentiment of a magical journey here. First track, and I'm already enjoying this quite a lot.

Nice work! Yay for the western Touhou scene, however small it may be. ^^

so, I'm trying to push myself to do more music.  ever since I got back from China, I've been thinking more about life - you know, in that strange ambiguously serious kind of way that such a phrase entails.  I'm getting older, and sometimes when I look back, it's really hard to say that these past few years of my life really have anything noteworthy to show for them.

so while I'm still here, and while I still can, I'd like to try and do something substantial in/for the western Touhou scene; thus - at the very least, I'm pushing myself to write more music.  I do owe some people some game music for the very least, but there is more to it than that.  that might involve a solo album at some point.  or maybe more collaboration albums.  if we were to go in the hypothetical deep end, it would probably include figuring out a way to promote more Western/foreign doujin musicians somehow.    like, maybe building up Western conventions to match RTS and Comiket as a release event.  or maybe that involves something else that I haven't thought of yet.

anyway, onto the track.  I wasn't aware of many other orchestral covers of this song, so naturally that was a big incentive for me to do it.  moreover, this is one of those songs where the original track title really evokes a vivid image:  a sublime wilderness of untamed beauty, its denizens ranging from the expected and mundane to the brilliant and supernatural.  as such, my goals were to try and capture the essence of a magical journey to Gensokyo would be like - a miraculous odyssey filled with breathtaking sights, but fraught with peril.

this track's title is, once again, intentionally somewhat pretentious - once again, in an effort to boil down all of that word vomit into a few choice words.

on the technical side of things - I'm looking for a computer upgrade fairly soon, since I bought a few things earlier on in the year and have yet to use them due to various issues. since I happened to get it working, though, this is the first time I'm applying convolution reverb, albeit not without trouble.  imo, it's not that noticeable, but I didn't really like how things got when there was too much.  here's to hoping less is more.  (or idk maybe someone help me with installing the damn thing properly in the first place so the rest of my libraries don't somehow magically disappear fml)

I'm not feeling that this piece needs any special long-winded explanation - mostly, I tried to mimic KanColle's Escape from Ironbottom Sound; hence the title.  Kaori Ohkoshi is very good at what she does.

I do suppose that this is my first exercise in orchestral bass drums, so that's exciting maybe?~

Today marks a special day for fellow English-speaking Granblue players. Yes, it is the English language patch day!

And we're just on time! The preview to the song previously uploaded has been completed and ready to be listened to!

To be frank, I seriously doubted myself as to whether I can make it on time. The (about) one year of knowledge I had was absolutely not enough to make this arrangement. But with this comes a great learning experience, given that there are like 1001 ways to go around the same song.

This is just one of them.
