Septette for the Dead Princess
Original by ZUN
Arranged by me

This is a Halloween special!
A few years ago, i tried to arrange this song, but in my honest opinion, i did not do very well, so i wanted to try again this time, but with a different approach.
You see, let's be honest, there are currently way too many Septette arranges already in the world, and just making the song "normal" wouldn't be fun i think, so i went a little crazy, i added some new parts, multiple piano spams and solos, and some melody and rhythm changes.

About the instrumentation:
This time around, i challenged myself to not use the Edirol SD-90, because i use it in every song, i wanted to see how it would sound like if i didn't.
This song primarily uses Kontakt 5 factory library and Halion 6, both which i have bought thanks to your commissions and financial support on my Patreon.
I wanted some parts to feel a bit "misty", because i wanted to show a side of Remilia's theme that is not often felt in many arranges, i used a combination of more "punchy" and more "floaty" instruments to try to balance feelings a little.
I payed extra attention to how some of the instrument combinations feel, especially in the chorus, i tried something a bit different there, because it has a lot more emptiness than usual, i think that emptiness is sometimes nice to have as a balance to the more wild and melodical parts.

Overall, i am quite happy with how this turned out, i think it is a lot better than my previous Septette arrange, i'm very curious what you think!
I'm very busy with composing for indie games and for multiple albums, so there might be less uploads on this channel between now and the end of December, so please keep that in mind when you see less uploads.

I wish you all a happy Halloween by the way!
Halloween is a very "English-American tradition", it is not really a big thing in my country (the Netherlands), but i have a lot of foreign friends, and most of my subscribers are American, and it is a fun opportunity to do something special with music, so why not?
