The Emotional Skyscraper, an otaku blog
« on: Sun, 30 March 2014, 14:56:57 »
Hello everyone!

Many of you probably don't know who I am since I've stopped posting actively on GH quite a while back. Either way... I'd like to shamelessly plug my blog if that's okay with the mods. Anyways, The Emotional Skyscraper, you will find my thoughts and reviews on touhou/doujin music, audiophile gear, and doujin games. Touhou music is the main focus of the blog, and i'd like to make at least one post per week about it. For those who don't know about touhou music, it basically consists of remixes/arrangements from a popular game series in Japan called Touhou Project. In general, the vocals and done in Japanese but don't let that scare you off. You don't need to understand japanese to appreciate the music.

I hope that you guys will enjoy what I've already written and I hope you guys will continue reading and spread the word if you like it! Feel free to comment about it here, or on my blog.

welcome back!

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

I still remember you!

I have no experience with said music, but I love to try out new types. Will give it a look-see later on.

Indeed! I don't play any of the original touhou games, but I love playing spinoffs.

Long time no see! Yeah since Touhou music is all about the arrangements, there is a ton of variety and genres to choose from.

Another thing that I love about Touhou arrangements are female japanese vocalists. They just sound so beautiful
^ Agreed.

Japanese singing is wonderful to listen to.
