So I thought of doing one of those daily posting things from the
r/touhou subreddit, to make the discussion in this newsgroup more
lively. Please feel free to do one yourself too as a follow-up to this
message, and crosspost your daily to any newsgroup your chosen music is relevant to (don't forget to change the title and reference this post by Message-ID). :) It can be any Touhou music, whether official, fan
remixed, or even fan originals (as long as they're sufficiently
Touhou-styled)!

For my first daily I want to share with you this Touhou-style original
by Nitreon (original composer) and Artifex (re-arranger) called "A
Strange Kappa Living in Solitude". Here's where you can listen to it on
YouTube (via Invidious):
https://yt.chaotic.ninja/watch?v=P3YddsnwuEg

Despite the name and the background/thumbnail used by Artifex, this is
not a Takane theme, as stated by the description in YouTube:

By the way, if you've noticed the little note in the middle part of
the video, it means you got it right. It was actually for Nitreon's
original character which is also a green kappa. But since TH18 was
released by the time I re-arranged this track, I might as well had an
art of Takane as a background wallpaper instead of Nitori. (It just
fits better in that setting)

But I like to think it is. This comment by "pandakekok7319" best
describes what I imagine this theme is about:

I know this isn't supposed to be Takane's theme, but I can imagine
this being the theme of Takane when she was expelled from the kappa's society for her radically different views, living and surviving alone
in the mountain's forestry. This is before she realizes her identity
as a Yamawaro instead of a Kappa and eventually got more followers
from kappa that are as disgruntled as she was.

I can't add any more to this.

Even the original composer (and the re-arranger via a heart) seems to
like it:

that's one way to think about it

I wish ZUN gives us more lore about the yamawaro. TH18.5 is great in
that it shows a bit of insight on how yamawaro think, but there has to
be more to that.

Give us plenty of yamawaro chapters like you did for the kappa in Wild
and Horned Hermit, ZUN!

By the way be aware of the crossposting limits by your newsserver. It
seems that Eternal September only allows you to post to a maximum of six
news groups, so that makes 4 free slots you can only pick from. I don't
know about other news servers, but I recommend sticking with a maximum
of 6 groups posted so that your article won't get rejected silently by
other servers (if that's a thing). So choose your news groups wisely.

Yeah I've heard of that theme before, I liked it too. In fact...

But I like to think it is. This comment by "pandakekok7319" best

That's me you're quoting on. ;) Glad you liked that 10 month old comment
of mine. :D

You're damn right. Currently it just looks like the kappa and yamawaro
are both obsessed with making money... Which is just boring you know? I
always have the headcanon that Takane and the yamawaro are secretly
socialists or communists guerillas or something, and that their
"capitalist" or market activities are all a front...

Guerillas? That's an interesting headcanon. What made you think of that lol?

You might want to include avoiding newsgroups outside of Big-8 and alt
due to an issue with my SeaMonkey trying to post to japan and tw <uf36id$3ihkh$[email protected]>

Well Takane wears a green camouflage, and she lives in the forest...
Definitely a guerilla :P

Ok here's mine: https://yt.chaotic.ninja/watch?v=J_Qf9qS5G98

It's a Touhou 19-style arrange of Nemuno's theme. Sounds like an
improved version while not radically differing from the original (and
while still having the UDoALG vibe)

Hmm I think I might have found the cause. I wasn't subscribed to those
japan and tw newsgroups.

Still is probably a good idea to stick with Big 8 and alt tho

I like it. Makes her theme sound a bit more intense and murder-y.
