Sakuya VS Cirno ~ Beloved Flowering Tomboyish Night
What would a fight between Sakuya and Cirno sound like? I was commissioned to make that a reality!
This arrangement was commissioned to me by @quickalas on Twitter!
This is an arrangement by me that combines elements of Beloved Tomboyish Daughter, Flowering Night, and Luna Dial (all originaly composed by ZUN), with original elements from my own influences
In a way, this song is a battle between Sakuya and Cirno, they are constantly fighting to be in the lead of the song, i tried to reflect this in the way the melodies switch from Cirno to Sakuya, but i also tried to get a little silly with it and have some of Cirno's melodies be played in the style of Sakuya's themes, and Sakuya's notes be played in the style of Cirno's theme
I also added a bit of Luna Dial as well haha, it's a nice place to add a little original piano solo
The notes from the ZUN songs have been transcribed by ear, i did this on purpose because i wanted to give the song a different production feeling than the original, in a light and subtle way of course, so that this arrangement can feel unique in more ways than just the addition of the new composition elements alone
I know some people value 100% ZUN style accuracy above all, but personally, i find it enjoyable to bring in some elements i feel would make for fun additions to these songs, i've been thinking a lot about what "Touhou style" means to me lately, and i consider it more of a genre than a strict ruleset as of late, and i find this approach to be more enjoyable to be honest, since it allows me to add more elements that i've always wanted to hear in ZUN style songs, kind of like a "Tee Lopes approach", by adding new but fitting elements into familiar nostalgic sounds, i think a lot of interesting and nice new things can be created, i think this kind of experimentation has a real place in Touhou style music as a genre, and should not be discarded
Usually when talking to clients who commission Touhou style songs from me, i ask "how much % pure ZUN style accuracy do you want the song to have?", and usually, the amount tends to be around 60-80% (which means i can use reverse cymbals and anime sparkles, yay!!), and then of course we also talk about which specific game's music style we try to stay the closest to as well, in this case, it was Touhou 9 for example
Speaking of commissions and clients, i'd like to remind you that i am available for commissions, including Touhou style commissions! Be sure to go to my website and my commissions sheet for more information:

The art was drawn by me
If you read this far in the description, thank you very much!
I hope you have a great day, and i wish you the best of luck with everything in general, especially if you are struggling, i believe in you!

Sakuya and Natsuki are kind of meant to be essentially me and my fiancé’s .. KNY sonas? I am an old woman so I don’t know if that’s a thing but anyways it’s very VERY funny to me because as I’ve always said Cam is SO Sasuke/Aki/Giyuu/dark haired bad boy type-coded that of COURSE when I asked him which Hashira he’d want to be mentored by he of COURSE he said Giyuu.
Except Natsuki is functionally mute. Literally I can ONLY imagine every single one of their training sessions is just this >
In dead silence for HOURS. Possibly days.
The “give Tomioka a Tsuguko” experiment ends promptly less than a week in because oh my god oh no it made them both worse now they’ve developed a language and are unstoppable.

I discovered the Touhou song Flowering night because of two videos that had a bunch Invader Zim clips that had the Night of Nights remix of the song to it I watched again and again when I around 10-11 and it was long before I even knew what Touhou even was to begin with. Make of that as you will I hope you enjoy them.

And of course I'm sending the remix itself just for good measure, have fun. And yes I know it already has more than millions of views on YouTube, but still, I wanted to send it anyway just for the heck of it. Enjoy.
