IOSYS is good if you leave them alone for a while before coming back to them. Problem with IOSYS is you've heard most of them before. Usually with each album I find I like half of it with the rest usually being too cutesy for my interests or not a style I'm too into, but I like how they mess about and I enjoyed some of their new stuff.

I pretty much always skip Touhou Otome Bayashi (the one with Border of Death and Marisa Stole the Precious Thing). Heard them both way too much.

IOSYS does the best mixed genre. Not trolling. Those that say they are good for just introduction only ever liked a small amount of their songs from the start too, but they are way more and they just didn't like it.

GCF are the best electronic.

Haven't listened to any really good symphonic, piano or jazz ones, but recently found out about shishimai brothers which seem to do a light combination of the three and I really like it (at least on the C74 album which is by one of them, I'll have to check the others).

Wow. This whole discussion turned toward a rather prejudicial bent.

Back to the actual Touhou music for now......

Oddly enough, as much of a fan of rock as I am, I'm not really a fan of most rock arrangements of Touhou stuff, if only because many of the songs really don't lend themselves terribly well to straight rock arrangements, which most circles doing rock tend to do.

This is probably why I like stuff more along the lines of Crow's Claw and Ataa. The former just does some well done arrangements that actually modify the songs well to their sound, while the latter is...well, they're stuff is just quirky and has a nice stripped down feel to the songs (if you don't know, they're the ones that do the song for that Cirno Love Letter video).
