Right. My birthday. One whole day to do a casual speedrun of ABC 0.2 development.

Look I stopped going on Twitch. There's more music, no more setups and no more talking. I made myself a playlist on YouTube now and a lot of it's copyrighted. You can go in if you want

7 hours ago? I'm bloody screwed unless I fluke it

Alright I lied. I only have all the available time

I love The Caretaker! Huge respect for that. Also Touhou, my favorite game with the best soundtrack. Do you like stage 6?

The Caretaker? Mmm, it's okay. Probably didn't listen to it properly since I wasn't willing to waste over 6 straight hours listening to it without doing something in the meantime, but yeah. It's quite empty, and a lot longer than the ending. Didn't really put EATEOT in the playlist because it will chow up a lot of time, almost double the playlist's runtime and very well be repeat itself straight after the next song on shuffle. Touhou? Dunno what that is. Like...doesn't pretty much every Touhou game have one?

Touhou is just a great game. With The Caretaker there is no proper way to listen to it, you don't need to waste straight hours on that, that's stupid. Just listen when you have the time.

The proper way to listen to it is obviously one album per sitting. Pausing would be like leaving a movie to take a break from it at a cinema and you probably wouldn't be so moved by it.

But I won't argue for inopportune people to try to attempt that at least.

Well, for your first listen, obviously it's most optimal to listen in one sitting. But with projects such as these that have 6 hours and 30 minutes of content, I would suggest looking deeper into every track, every song, and relisten to each song until you get an understanding of what every song means.

There is so much detail. so much sound you can simply skip over or ignore, I with 100% seriousness suggest to the listeners to memorize each song. And obviously that takes way more than multiple sittings, the same way you rewatch a movie multiple times and notice interesting details. So many people skip over post awareness stages, it saddens me, it's my favorite part of the album yet so many people disregard it as simple noise. But the more you listen the more you notice how enjoyable each section is. I, after the first listen listened to each stage on loop for over 4 times, until I got an impression of each song. So, one listen without paying attention is not something to be considered impressive.
