If you have any more circles you'd like me to check out, feel free to name them below!! 😊😊 Also please consider sharing, liking, commenting!! I'd really appreciate it, especially seeing how UA-cam is a bit garbage at notifying my subscribers. Also woops, I think all these types videos from now on will be around 15 mins in length or so. Hope you don't mind too much!!
Would love you to check out FELT, since they would be releasing their last album later on. Their stuff focuses on pop and ambient, with great vocals from Maika, Vivienne, and Mika.
For active jazz groups, there are still plenty of groups available. The main active groups are Twitter Tohobu, Unity-Gain and ACCORD ON CODES. The latter one even did organised a jazz live concert last year (紅楼JAZZ 2020) with the two other groups. Then there is Twitter Tohobu, Baguettes Ensemble, Aqua Blend Server, 幼術使い, SNUG SPACE and to a lesser extent DDBY and xi-on. And who knows what groups might pop up later. As for SWING HOLIC themselves, they indeed disappeared from the radar. The main vocalist A~YA (why no A~YA songs :( ) still occasionally tweets but otherwise seems to do her own thing. I suspect that she might have moved away or otherwise wanted to focus on her family that she simply can't be actively working on SWING HOLIC any more. As for the members, I think Swing Holic Band consisted of at least panoman and atabo as well as a few other people that likely have done some solo arrangements as well. And Rolling Contact's Amane fun fact: He is likely the arranger with the most Touhou arranges ever.
I kinda want to hear your opinion on TaMaOnsen, TsuBaKi, O-Life Japan, or even Konpeki Studio~ (eh, that's quite a lot lol) Btw if some of you want more jazz Touhou, I totally recommend Tokyo Active Neets (not Kokyo Active Neets since this one is for orchestral).
oh yes, right when I was running out of music to listen to, thanks for the suggestions! (also, I really like the track switches, expecially the one at 10:00 )
I would like a take on Shibayan, since they're pretty unique with its retro feeling nu disco Other recommendations, would be: Floating cloud - folk Demetori - probably the best instrumental metal circle. Buta Otome -?slow something? Kishida Kyodan & akeboshi rockets - pop rock Also, can't remember if still active, but Golden City Factory also is a nice jazz circle
A semi-underrated Jazz(and also orchestral) circle I love is Tokyo Active Neets, and then not sure who exactly made it but the Cafe de Touhou CD has a ton of amazing songs too
@@jakebolls3420 “How many times do we need to teach you this lesson old man?!” UA-cam keeps striking the video so it’s been reuploaded several times now
I'd highly recommend Foreground Eclipse to anyone, touhou fan or not. My personal favorite song from them is (Calm Eyes Fixed On Me, Screaming), sadly they disbanded in 2013 though.
I highly recommend Foreground Eclipse, Shinigiwa Satellite and Kachi Kachi Yama. All 3 of these share the same female vocalist (Meramipop). FE and Shinigiwa disbanded but Kachi Kachi Yama are active. Also you can check out Undead Corporation. They used to make touhou melodeath and metalcore but not they make their original music. Takamachi Walk are also a newer and active circle. highly recommend.
:000 these circles sound really cool, I haven't really gotten around to checking out this type of music! I'll definitely be checking out rolling contact, sounds very experimental.
yes yes so happy Yuu has come through whit another Touhou video so happy love the selection. now to wait for more vids :3 (btw if some of you still want more jazz in your life: Tokyo active NEETs: do some Touhou jazz as well. not sure if they are not dead as well tho (( or some classical covers then Kokyo Active NEETs )) long as ps be like )
I'll just list some more jazz circles for anyone curious: - Accord on Codes - Swing Of the Dead (They produced one album and have since then been dead AFAIK) - TOHO JAZZ MESSENGERS (This time two albums then dead) - xi-on (彩音 ～xi-on～) is not mainly a jazz circle but they produced 6 jazz albums so far - Twitter Tohobu (ついったー東方部) - Tokyo Active NEETs
Hey Yuu! I know this comment is pretty recent (I'm in the middle of catching up on your videos at the moment), but I just wanted to admire all your hard work for keeping your content top-notch! Out of the three circles you showcased in this video, Casket resonates with me the most. I love listening to Celtic music and remember hearing two such Touhou remixes, one of which was Lunatic Princess and the other being U.N. Owen (I am not sure if either one of these were produced by Casket, but still amazing nonetheless). It's crazy that these are actual Touhou remixes. If I didn't know what the title of some of them were, I probably wouldn't have recognised them! I am considering downloading some of Casket's songs on iTunes!
hello yuunarii, im pretty new on your channel, but i love your content so much!!!, all the dedication you put on the videos edition its amazing!,niice jooob
Aww thank you very much!! Ah I'm familiar with the former 2, they've got some pretty good music!! Really enjoy Shibayans bossa nova collection. I'll be sure to keep them in mind for future showcase videos!!
remember that video you did on eurobeat like a year ago? you should also check out italo disco. its basically the parent genre of eurobeat . if you ever find they sound way different its cause eurobeat originally started ott it in an italo disco shell (f.e super eurobeat vol 1-7 but this style keeps going till around vol 40) with the help of some songs, it became its own unique style of music. Here are some songs i would absolutely recommend listening to first: Michael Fortunati - Give Me Up David Gray - Lets Dance Tonight Michael Fortunati - Into The Night Max Coveri - Bye Bye Baby Vanessa - Just A game Aleph/Dave Rodgers - Fly To Me Sophie - Broken Tale Some of these songs are also in Super Eurobeat, but came out before it.
You are spoiling us! xD Hmm, any suggestions for future showcases... Sekken'ya? Silver Forest? Yuuhei Satellite? Alstroemeria Records? A-ONE? (That last one is honestly just inviting you to gush about stuff you like for half an hour, isn't it?)
I would really love to see you cover ZYTOKINE and its former handle CYTOKINE. They're a really underrated EDM / rock circle that don't get discussed very often, and the vocals by aki, nachi, cool kiss, and ESPECIALLY itori are really top-notch. Some of their top-tier songs include GOLD, Dancing Dollz, and Poker Face.
Hatsunetsumikos is a circle i found recently thanks to danmaku kagura. And i ended up buying their "The Lotus" CD. Pretty great circle with great vocal arrangements
Have you considered talking about any of the circles from outside of Japan? Those circles usually don't get a lot of attention and could use a bit of love
ooh, these are nice reccomendations!! very well put together :^) i really like toho jazz messengers for that sort of genre, though i dont know if they're an actual circle or just a two album thing haha- still very cool!! B)
I'm new to touhou after my friend recommend me some bullet hell games then introduce me to touhou thousand night anamnesis. Surprinsingly, I like mostly for its touhou music then came to watch this video.
I love these videos, I wish you had timestamps though (so they would appear on the youtube progress bar) I was almost about to skip the rest of the video after the jazz showcase (not really my thing), and it helps to find stuff i want to return to later Anyway, good video as always Yuu!
Oh wait, you do have timestamps, odd that it doesn't show on the progress bar But Rolling Contact sounds so awesome, so glad i didn't skip it, thanks for the review !
Awww thank you!! Currently contacting UA-cam about the issue cause no matter what I do, they just refuse to show up (they're listed in the description). Very strange as they do appear to work just fine on other people's videos.
@@Yuunarii So next music circles' vid when? Hehe. Also, surely you know IOSYS? Popular for their meme-able MVs like "Marisa stole the Precious Thing" , "Scarlet Police on Ghetto Patrol" , "Cirno's Perfect Math Class" etc.
@@brendanspencer6735 Probably fairly soon. Been meaning to start working on a new one!! Still waiting for a new mic cable to come in, as I accidentally lost mine woops. So I can't record audio. And yeh yeh I know IOSYS. They're very diverse with their music.
great video those circles are pretty good. i really want to hear your opinion on the bossa nova circle "Shipayan Records" they are the circle behind the popular song 'omae ye ma mou', their last album Touhou bossa nova 9 is the best thing I heard in my life.
Id definitely argue theres some better touhou jazz artists out there. BLOPA DH does a good job at documenting a lot of jazz related touhou music. but a person piece ive found is by JAGMO, just searching up JAGMO touhou jazz prolly gives the result edit: dont even know how I forgot about this group but Toyko Active NEETs is an ongoing jazz group and they have like 14 or 15 albums now
I Guess that Swing Holic got merge in with main circle Sound Holic Btw, Liz Triangle is returning, I think it would be good if you review them next time
Could very well be yeh. I know sound holic still occasionally features Jazz tracks on their albums. Ooo they are? Didn't they stop sometime in 2015 or something? -hopefully Halozy will also make a return someday-
@@Yuunarii well lily-an announced in Twitter AND there is soon Live of Touhou Danmaku Kagura (incoming Touhou Mobile game) and it will have Live Concert with Liz Triangle being one of Circle
May you be blessed by the YT Algorithm god. God knows since the Touhou Doujin Music Distribution I’ve been kidnapping people into my Touhou music van with Spotify and those streaming services. Side note: Stealing that “boomer circle” description for later use.

Felt, liz tri/shinra bansho, tumeneco.
But really my recommendation feed is better at notify me than the notification thing itself
Still think Liz Triangle, even if they’ve disbanded a long time ago.
Edit: if and when you do Liz Triangle, make sure to throw in “Arigato”
ShibayanRecords
I still recomennd Shinra Bancho. One of my favourite Circles!
Touhou?
*YES YES*
*YES*
*YES YES!*

+1 for xi-on, their C91 jazz album is a real banger ua-cam.com/video/087-Aa4xKYo/v-deo.html
Can you link to A~YA's twitter for me?
I kinda want to hear your opinion on TaMaOnsen, TsuBaKi, O-Life Japan, or even Konpeki Studio~ (eh, that's quite a lot lol)

Isn’t the video with all the albums just titled something along the lines of “didn’t I tell you old man”
@@jakebolls3420 “How many times do we need to teach you this lesson old man?!” UA-cam keeps striking the video so it’s been reuploaded several times now
I'd like some metal circles, please.
I'd highly recommend Foreground Eclipse to anyone, touhou fan or not. My personal favorite song from them is (Calm Eyes Fixed On Me, Screaming), sadly they disbanded in 2013 though.
+1 for Demetori, the cream of the crop. Each of their albums is godlike
I highly recommend Foreground Eclipse, Shinigiwa Satellite and Kachi Kachi Yama. All 3 of these share the same female vocalist (Meramipop). FE and Shinigiwa disbanded but Kachi Kachi Yama are active.
Also you can check out Undead Corporation. They used to make touhou melodeath and metalcore but not they make their original music.

Woo, content!
:000 these circles sound really cool, I haven't really gotten around to checking out this type of music! I'll definitely be checking out rolling contact, sounds very experimental.
I havent watched this channel since awhile ago, just started binging these and they're great!

they do live band practice every week on UA-cam, and play all kinds of weeb things. It's great fun :D
can vouch for active neets jazz and orchestral

thanks for introducing rolling contract! i really love hardcore and edm songs in general, will check them out soon!
Completely agree with your opinion about the melody / catchy-ness of a song. Great video!
Been a new guy here in this channel today yet I found each of my taste here such as eurobeat and touhou so.. very neat keep it up.
I like Future Jazz music. If that is what I’m referring to Electronic music.
I would really love to see you cover ZYTOKINE and its former handle CYTOKINE.

Ohh very good video with a depressed end.
You're doing great, keep a smile on that face you're amazing !
Man, i love those showcases.
I live for jazz content omg
Hatsunetsumikos is a circle i found recently thanks to danmaku kagura. And i ended up buying their "The Lotus" CD. Pretty great circle with great vocal arrangements
A~YA from Swing Holic is my favorite Touhou Doujin Vocalist, I really do hope they're all doing well.
@Yuunarii Ik zie deze video’s nu pas en vind ze geweldig!!! en Music ook ^^
Oh boy. Swing Holic has my some of my favorite songs and albums of all the music that I listen. Is nice to see you talk of them
Have you considered talking about any of the circles from outside of Japan? Those circles usually don't get a lot of attention and could use a bit of love

ooh, time to check out rolling contact as i've subbed to a couple of edm youtubers this week! great video as always!
More Touhou music reviews!!

Shinra-Bansho
I think it would be pretty cool if you did a video on ButaOtome, Shinra-Bansho or Tengu no Mai :))
Another blessing
Maybe i don't listen to japanese like music but those are really cool
Every video on your channel is enjoyable

also virgin festa is dangerously close to virgin fiesta
Pffftz speedcore guys
honestly am a huge violin guy so the last circle is straight up my alley
I got a idea for a mod, that is just a full week yuunarii vibes, ending with a megalovania remix song.
Touhou content is back in the menu!
Yuu, Did You Some talking me about The Six Hidden buns or What???
I'be waiting a The next Coming to video's

What do you think of Sonic’s 30th Anniversary
imo the best touhou jazz circle is a-tttempo
_now also defunct_ :|
the best touhou circles is demetori
noing can match touhou music!!!
