Demetori

Japanese doujin music circle renowned for its powerful heavy metal arrangements of themes from the Touhou Project video game series. Demetori is a Japanese doujin music circle formed in 2006. The circle consists of two core members: BlackY (guitars, composition, arrangement) and Rena (keyboards, arrangement). They specialize in creating intricate and high-energy heavy metal/power metal arrangements of music from the Touhou Project franchise. Demetori has released numerous albums primarily through doujin music channels and events like Comiket, gaining significant international recognition within the Touhou arrangement community and among metal fans for their technical skill and distinctive sound.
  • The members, BlackY and Rena, maintain a high degree of anonymity, typical of many doujin circles. Their real names and personal details are not publicly known.
  • Demetori's sound is characterized by BlackY's highly technical and melodic guitar work, often featuring dual lead guitars and harmonized solos, combined with Rena's powerful keyboard arrangements that complement and enhance the metal foundation.
  • Despite releasing albums relatively infrequently compared to some circles, each Demetori release is highly anticipated and well-received for its consistent quality and intensity.
  • Rena is one of the more prominent female musicians within the doujin metal arrangement scene.
