"The Hell of Blazing Fires hides the secret to the ultimate form of energy that humans can attain.

You, crow that lives within the blaze...

You should be able to contain that power within your body.

We can use that to bring about the wishes of not just the underground, but the above ground as well."

It's been a bit since I attempted this song, but I wanted to go about it a different way this time around. Instead of my usual symphonic metal style, I decided to go with electronic instead! But this isn't just Nuclear Fusion re-done all over again, oh no. This time it's a full-on remix, including bits from the Stage 6 theme, Hellfire Mantle! It's been forever since I've done anything in an electronic style, much less a Touhou song. To be honest, I had this in the works for a long time, and never got around to continuing it until recently, and I think I can safely say I'm proud of how this turned out! It's simple, but it's effective all the same! I hope you enjoy this, and I hope I never have to do this one again.

Oh shit this is really cool. Love the feel of that bass. Electronic music doesn't seem remotely outside of your arsenal hahaha. 5 stars, followed, and added to favorites.

Shiverwar responds:

I've dabbled in electronic music before, but it's typically not my cup of tea, so I'm actually really pleasantly surprised at how this came out. Thank you for your kind words!

as much as it's fast paced and great to hear,i don't think hellfire mantle mixes so well with this,feels like it completely slows down the pace and doesn't sit well

Shiverwar responds:

That's fair. I put it in there because I was unsure how to continue it, and I felt it was for the best. Can't win 'em all. Thank you for your review, and I appreciate your criticism.

That (square?) bass ignites a F I R E inside of me. I've had a fetish for hard hitting synth basses lately (as you might find out soon in some of my incoming posts LOL). 1:25 makes me rock hard because it's essentially "F-Zero's Fire Field, but Solar Sect".

Shiverwar responds:

I never really thought of F-Zero, but that's kind of a cool comparison! The funny part is this was originally a throwaway idea that I just happened to pick back up, and it turned into quite possibly my most powerful remix yet. Maybe I should do more in this style, it's quite fun! Hope to hear more from you as well, man!

Liking the fast paced drum and the synth in this!

Shiverwar responds:

Thanks! This turned out to actually be quite fun to finish, despite my general attitude towards my association with my previous mix.
