Title: Touhou music visualized with a spectrogram
Post by: shockdude on June 01, 2015, 03:30:39 AM

Edit: Now with corrections and approximate timestamps.

One of foobar2000's coolest visualizations is the Spectrogram. It's basically a visual representation of the frequencies present within a song.
Because ZUN's music is synthesized instrumental, it lends itself very well to this type of visualization. Some of them were pretty interesting and I figured they were worth sharing.

A Soul as Red as a Ground Cherry (0:24) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYvvKyYIc5s#t=24) - those squiggly lines are the trumpets.

Necrofantasia (0:00) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=195XntreoMc) - notice how fuzzy the synthesizers are.

Theme of Eastern Story (1:40) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dgd8K3_OVnU#t=100) - aka the reason why I made this thread in the first place. Pretty much anything PC-98 should look really cool through a spectrogram.

These look ominous.
