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:

Thank you for downloading this song.

This is "Complete Darkness" from Story of Eastern Wonderland

At this point, I do not care to say but that I've finished arranging this with such ferocity. It's an arrange unlike usual times, so I made a point in enjoying its fun in contrast to making new songs.

And there is a feeling from this song that became much brighter than the original piece. But well, it is not a bright song. "Complete Darkness" (Total darkness) yet having it bright, it just cannot be helped, (^ ^;

Also, since there are few variations of synth lead sound heard outside 88Pro, the main melody sounds all the same. Later, I tried to use the Gate Reverb in the drums a bit extremely. A little fresh. But (I do not think this can be heard without 88Pro ; _; even so I created the soundtrack to my best. Sorry~ (^ ^;


The original song was created where its imagery preceded it. This imagery gave far too much impression such that, later, it becomes a habit that any final boss songs becomes somewhat like this song (^ ^ When it comes to the final boss, the root theme starts from here.

Touhou series was also too difficult as this image brought out personal feelings to be tampered with when creating many songs, as it is very easy to arrange from here. This is the reason why this arrangement gave me such a hard time.

Well then, let us meet again in the next song, shall we? ZUN

このたびは、ダウンロードしていただきありがとうございます。

東方封魔録より【 Complete Darkness 】です。

これでもか、これでもか、と言うくらい激しく仕上げたつもりです。 せっかくのアレンジなので、新曲とは別の楽しみを味わいながら創りました。

元曲より、数段明るい感じになったよね。まぁでも、明るい曲ではないけど。 って、Complete Darkness （真暗闇）なのに明るくなってもしょうがないが(^^;

また、88Pro 以外で聞くとシンセリードのバリエーション音色が少ないので、主旋律が がみんな同じ音になってしまいます。 あと、ドラムにちょっと過激なGate Reverbを使用してみました。ちょっと新鮮。 でも、これも88Pro じゃないと聞けないんですよ(;_; 頑張って、サントラ創るので許して～(^^;


で、オリジナルのこの曲、この曲はイメージ先行で創った曲で、そのイメージが あまりにも印象に残り、以降、最終ボスというとこの曲に似てしまうという癖が(^^; とにもかくにも、ボス戦のテーマのルーツはこの曲にあります。

東方シリーズはこのイメージで創った曲も多く、非常にアレンジしやすくもあり 逆に個人的思い入れがありすぎていじりにくい部分もありました。 それだけにアレンジは苦労しましたね。


ではまた次の曲で逢いましょうか　ＺＵＮ
