Hey Tumblr crowd! Because I know there’s a few of ya, I’m trying out a livestream tonight, and we’re playing a JRPG!

It’s Super Mario RPG!

I'm heading up to Ohayocon tomorrow morning. I didn't even know about it until today XD

I'll probably be a Team Rocket grunt the entire time tomorrow if I even cosplay.

Just a quick Sketch-dump! I think I'll start doing this on Tumblr more often.

Yes, that is Chiaki dressed as Madoka.

So let's talk about alcohol.

No, wait, let's talk about ZUN, which will inevidebly lead to alcohol. ... Let me explain. Jun'ya Ota "ZUN" is the lone member of Team Shanghai Alice, a dōjin(independent circle) developer of the Touhou Project. Touhou Project is an expansive series of games, comics, music videos, merchandise (where the real money is made), and fan work which chronicles the adventures of a particular shrine maiden, and our infinite suffering. Originally a sound programmer for Taito, ZUN came into the dōjin around the mid 90's with the title Highly Responsive to Prayers, a breakout clone. Eventually, the series became what it is known for: a series of frantic "Curtain-Fire" Shooters inspired by CAVE developed shooters such as DoDonPachi. With Shrine Maidens, and a Witch. It's kind of awesome. What's even more awesome? The programming, graphics, and sound are all produced by ZUN. Inspiring to say the least. ZUN is known for his taste in alcohol. He's famous for it. Many in the Touhou community say Beer made Touhou, not ZUN. Now, I'm not a drinker, never have been, probably never will. Alcohol and the effects of it have never been appealing to me. However, I can't say that it probably had some help with making 20+ games, each with their own soundtrack. Many commentaries from ZUN that are displayed along with the sound test have stated drinking was a part in the creation of pieces. Undefined Fantastic Object is our subject today. Sky Ruins is played during it's third stage, flying across ruins, dodging thousands of bullets and riding the clouds. ZUN states in his commentary he wanted a feeling of crossing through Laputa because that's what you think of when you see a ruin in the sky: Laputa. What I really like about this piece is it's choice of instrumentation. Touhou has always had a flavor of Traditional Japanese music. Combining the midi piano and traditional sound along with the speed of the composition, I think ZUN succeeds in taking me to Laputa. I find Touhou music has that special brew of great composition and choice instrumentation, and this piece is a great example of ZUN's skill as a sound programmer.

GO GO GO! It’s an amazing game.

Have I talked about Hitoshi Sakimoto yet? Probably not. Sakimoto is best known for the "epic" scores of Final Fantasy Tactics, the Ogre Battle series, and Vagrant Story. Here's a piece from a recently discovered soundtrack, Breath of Fire V Dragon Quarter. Throughout this soundtrack, there's a feeling of dread, a machine-like military structure where society has been driven under the planet, forced into rank to keep stability. This peice, Small Departure, has the sense of small hope this world has. A piece that plays when two people meet under these oppressive circumstances. A meeting that has much more value than just a fleeting moment, but can change the world.
