Description[Title] - Flowering Landscape
[Author/Circle] - Swing Holic Band, Viola: DAUGHTER / SWING HOLIC

[Original] - Gensokyo, Past and Present ~ Flower Land ~ Yuka Kazami's Theme
[Game] - Touhou 09: Phantasmagoria of Flower View

Boy I'm not gonna let go of this release for a while. Each track is an anthem to elegance.

This time around, DAUGHTER snags the spotlight as she and her wonderful viola put down a most gracious rendition of Yuka's latter theme.
This particular theme... Not only it never called to me in any particular way (for reasons beknownst to us all), but it never either got a significant portion of brilliant arranges.
Someone's gotta do the do's here and whatnot. Let the Swing Holic crew show how it's done!

What captivates me so much in this track, apart from DAUGHTER's increasing talent behind the viola and a loyal sax performance, is how it portrays such a summer-ish theme! For the one youkai who is (not canon) sanctioned as the summer embodiment, then why, this certainly makes for a very righteous outcome!

It's good to see they nabbed Yuka's most outcast-ish theme out of the bunch too. You fowks seem to more often than not pick Inanimate Dream and Sleeping Terror over this one, and admittedly, so do I (mostly). It is quite refreshing to listen to an amazing intake on this particular track.
