[Music CD]s that mimic ZUN games: Last Update? Smells like Beer vol. 2 and more!
Popcioslav:
SO THERE'S A NEW COMPOSING LORD IN THE RING
I don't feel like there's a need to introduce Useless, but in short if you follow modern fanmade ZUNlike music, you probably heard his work. He's probably most well known for Shunned Child and the fake Touhou 17 main menu theme. So he has made a very ZUN-like album CD. And by that you can tell it's very clearly Touhou 17 inspired. They're not straightforward arranges mind you. If you like the modern instruments in Th16/17 but not necessarily the melodies, you might still love this.

Ooooh hot diggity!! Glad to see this is still being updated with new music. still waiting for that full version of brilliant works though. khirio please
Useless has been a musician I have been keeping an eye on, because their tracks have been quite awesome; aside from their fake WBaWC title theme, they have also done a WBaWC-type arrangement of Hartmann's Youkai Girl and a mashup of Doll Judgment and No More Going Through Doors.
Speaking of WBaWC, that is the main influence you can hear in basically every track, almost as if this album is almost a reinterpretation of the game's OST, Track 4 uses Urumi's theme's 808 synths as a stage theme, which works to a greatly melancholy effect.

The story, as made apparent by the first track/title theme's name, is that Reimu has up and disappeared, which is causing an uproar in Gensokyo as the Hakurei Barrier is soon to be thrown into disarray due to her being missing, leaving Marisa and Yukari to trudge out to the Netherworld in order to find her.
Notably, no boss names or anything of that sort are mentioned at all for the story (aside from, presumably, Yuyuko, who is mentioned in the second track), only being a single continuous string of sentences for each time the music comments would be there.
Shizzo:
Oh my god, he REALLY nailed the Th17 style! That's so impressive! Amazing album!
Shizzo:

Useless did a great job exploring that Touhou 17 sound! stage 3 boss theme is great, makes you imagine an elegant but eccentric character there
