東方幻想サーフバンド ~ Tôhô Fantasy Surf Band

東方幻想サーフバンド ~ Tôhô Fantasy Surf Band is Tangent's (Tangentg) 4th album. It is released in Jan 2020 and features unofficial Touhou fan music and public domain music arrangement tracks. It is currently (as of 3 Feb, 2020) the second album that has all tracks present in the Bandcamp release. Among the tracks, 2 of the tracks are rerecordings/rearrangements of tracks previously released on Tangent's first album, Tôhô Seaside Surf.

Tangent currently considers this their recommended album, alongside Tôhô Rocking n Surfing.

Title
The previous provisional kanji for the album name, as seen on some of the Youtube videos, was "東方幻想衝浪樂團", but this was deemed incorrect Japanese and changed to the current name.

Recording quality
Having bought new recording equipment, some of the tracks feature improved quality.

Bonuses
While originally the "albums" were only meant as downloadable counterparts to the SoundCloud/Youtube uploads, the fact that the albums got documented in a Touhou Wiki and shared in a doujin site, as well as the fact that the albums do not show up with cover art on phones, led to Tangent deciding to improve on the release, with tracks containing metadata for the track number, names, arranger, and album art. Additionally, liner notes (including Morse code at the bottom), a "back cover" tracklist, and a wide version of the album art intended for video site reuploads have been included in the download packages on all the officially provided download sites. Another reason for the liner notes is that while they are previously on the descriptions in the SoundCloud and Youtube uploads, it has come to Tangent's attention that not everyone who downloads the albums are already previously familiar with the SC/YT uploads. Originally the liner notes were planned to be written entirely in Morse code, but it was ultimately decided that the important stuff would not be as Tangent doubts too many people would bother to decipher all the Morse code.

Design
The font of the English text is based on 60s surf/instro rock band fonts featured in the likes of the album Surfers' Choice and The Ventures' band font. The front cover features the wave that has been Tangentg's first SoundCloud avatar, while the "back cover" features a rough recreation of the opening shot of Yukari's umbrella from the intro of the Touhou fanime Fantasy Kaleidoscope.

Tracklist
The asterisk indicates tracks that are different from the SoundCloud/Youtube versions.
