ferrum.wav Posted Friday at 04:51 PM Posted Friday at 04:51 PM (edited) Dang, two new(-ish) pieces in a month? That's crazy. Tbf the main materials here are from a preexisting song, and the other piece is a full revision. Then again, I had to learn orchestration stuff for this and that took a very long time. aaaanyway, really happy about how this has turned out anndd imma just gonna quote the description from the progress update thread Quote I've decided to tackle orchestration again, and this time, I've paired it with vocal. I've actually got into this "game" again recently, so that's why I chose to orchestrate its only song with my own preferences. The main theme may sound like it comes from an anime cus it's from a fcked up anime dating simulator lmao The instrumentation is fairly standard: 3(III=pic).2.3(III=bc).2 - 3.2.0.0 - timpani.percussion(glock, xylo, sus.cymb, cymb, trgl) - alto - strings you could find the progress update thread here: also @Henry Ng Tsz Kiu, I'm really glad I could be the first one to ever quote one of your themes! When I was sketching that section, I thought of wanting to quote, and I thought of your specific theme. Again, really happy that it fits really well. Also also, those syncopated rhythms are actually from the original song itself. But, I do agree that it fits this "cover" and the original song. Glad you liked my orchestration too!

PeterthePapercomPoser Posted yesterday at 02:13 AM Posted yesterday at 02:13 AM Hi @ferrum.wav! What a delight to hear this arrangement! The orchestration is masterful and dense and complex but retains a simplicity that allows it to be accessible and easily palatable as a song. Speaking of which, did you record the alto singing the words? It sounds like a real singer. I'm thinking you must have extracted just the voice part from the original song and inserted it into your arrangement? Or did you use some kind of software to render the words? That seems unlikely given how easy to understand the words are. Thanks for sharing and I'm glad you completed this wonderful rendition! 1 Quote

I've used a website to separate the vocal from the instrumental. If you listen carefully, you could actually hear the imperfections in it, such as at some point, you could hear piano doublings on the vocal. That's because throughout the whole track, the piano always doubles it an octave above. Here's the ost: Anyways, thanks for the kind words! Really glad that my time spent on actually learning orchestration has paid off! Edited yesterday at 03:12 AM by ferrum.wav 1 Quote
