[Version 4 here!](//www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=391932)
This is the third version of this torrent. Unfortunately, **enough has changed that even if you have all of v2, you should probably just redownload this one.** I promise all future ones will be (almost) nice clean extensions of this one!
**Some quick recommendations for the busy:**
Although different people will enjoy different parts of this collection, I can guarantee that anyone looking for Touhou jazz will at least somewhat enjoy Issay & Geist Jazz Band (SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO), tanigon (circle: ついったー東方部), and Bugbeard (the 物語 series, circle: Golden City Factory). I definitely recommend exploring the rest, though! (Your time is probably best spent in the Full Albums section.)
**Changes in this version:**
1) All music files are now mp3 v0, with the exception of:
-the top-level folder
-partial albums:
---\[凋叶棕+Timescope\] 祭
---\[MINT's World\] ヽノ十
---\[Melodic Taste\] 紀行幻想シンフォニカ
---\[湯船にプカリと浮かびたい\] ヤミノアヤカシ
---\[東京アクティブNEETs\] LEGEND OF MARISA Original Sound Track plus
-full albums:
---\[OrangeCoffee\] クロシロ
---\[ついったー東方部\] THE WIDEFINDER
A nice side effect of this is much better tagging; all the files I replaced (quite a few) now have the same nice tags as the lossless collection.
2) All albums I could find cover art for now have cover art, all called cover.jpg, cover.jpeg, or cover.png.
3) All scans folders are gone. I'm pretty sure that they all can be found in the big lossless torrent's companion torrent anyways.
4) File/folder name changes; **you'll need to update playlists that have these files:**
4a) In SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO, "Charcal Blossom" -> "Charcoal Blossom".
4b) In SWING HOLIC VOL 4, "Beloved Tomboyish Daughter" -> "冷たい湖畔のシンフォニア".
4c) Changed \[発熱巫女ず\] Nothing but Flowers to \[発熱巫女~ず\] Nothing but Flowers.
4d) Moved \[DDBY\] 秘封物語 from Full Albums to Partial; it is not full.
4e) Tracks 1,2,6,8,9,10 of \[flap+frog\] Sweet renamed to their real names
4f) In \[SOUND HOLIC\] 風 -KAZE-, "Meimou" -> "迷妄"
5) The following albums used to be ogg files and are now mp3; again, **playlists will need to be updated.**
-partial albums:
---SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO ?東方的紅蓮烈火弾
---SOUND HOLIC MEETS TOHO ~東方的夢天幻奏典
---\[SOUND HOLIC\] 地 -KUNI-
---\[SOUND HOLIC\] 文 -BUN-
-full albums:

**Description:**
This is a collection of all of the Touhou jazz that I am aware of. There's a folder for every album that has at least some jazz on it, with non-jazz songs deleted (with albums going under Partial and Full Albums accordingly). This unfortunately makes things rather ugly. However, if I left those files in, something like 60 or 70% of the collection would be not jazz, which would make it pretty much useless. Since not everyone's going to agree about what they want in a collection of Touhou jazz, I was very loose in deciding what made sense to put in the collection. This means the collection's a bit larger than it could be, but this way it's unlikely that there are any songs removed that someone would have wanted to be introduced to through a compilation of Touhou jazz.
As of v3, everything is mp3, and - with a very few exceptions - is encoded at VBR v0.
Some songs aren't associated with a circle that released an actual album; these are just loose in the top level folder. Read the notes file for information about them. If you know of any albums I missed, please let me know in the comments.
**Missing:**
Things I want in this collection but have been unable to get (please let me know if you have any!):
OrangeCoffee - brickwall
OrangeCoffee - clockwork
ついったー東方部 - THE WIDEFINDER
accord on codes - a modern ghost
surreacheese - fontina
Enjoy!
