Parts of this work that I'd like to highlight:
0:01-0:09 Very obvious insert of another Demon Slayer theme that I couldn't figure out if I was dreaming when I heard it in the original, so I cranked it to max (look, I'm here to have fun, okay?!). It fits the progression, so I just left it in there ahaha. Also, epic choir and brass go brrrrr
0:10-0:16 The crazy drop in dynamics sounds super easy to do (just drop the volume, and bam), but it's SOOOO much harder than you think to transition from ff to p. I think that's why most orchestration channels excel in constant ff "epic/insane covers," but struggle so hard once they have to achieve any sort of massive dynamic shift (I can't write percussion worth my life, though, so -1 for me there lol). Unfortunately, I feel like this is an underappreciated aspect of orchestral remakes; you probably didn't even notice until I pointed the dynamics out.
0:17 and onwards: I'm really proud of those tremolos. So...fragile. Exactly what I wanted.
0:33 Absolutely gorgeous children's choir section with polyphony and counterpoint. Unfortunately, it doesn't hold a candle to the original, which were singing actual lyrics and had an incredible sense of lyricism and projection that I could not replicate with my virtual choir. Absolute chills when I heard it in the show the first time.
0:49 I added in a solo cello to reinforce the counterpoint in the child choir, and then to further reinforce the oboe solo a few measures later. Idk, I like the color it brings.
1:21 Random, but also not random, piano arpeggios. I can feel something moving beneath the layers right here in the original, but for the life of me, I can't figure out the exact notes or what exactly it is. I would have tried it out with violin/flute, but my laptop was starting to suffer here, so I just left it on piano. Also, is it just me, or does the horn/trombone duo + trumpet solo get me in the feels every time? So heroic and resolved, and when the strings and choir come in and reach the 1:45 climax...I'm at a loss for words. Like, I MADE this omg
1:49 ritardando was actually pretty easy to make. I literally just played right alongside the original so the times are 1 to 1.
Alright, this was a rather short description, but that's most of what I was gonna say anyways. With a computer coming in the future that won't crash my project just by opening it, I feel like I can do anything. Unfortunately, the sad reality is that by being late by a day on covering this, I've missed all the views and only a few will ever see this, let alone read the description (hello there). Truly a happy ending! At least I'm satisfied with the product.
As always, 楽しんでくださいね。
