An Orchestration of "Snowflakes" from Persona 4 Golden
160Here's an orchestral remix I made of "Snowflakes", a wonderful track from Persona 4 which plays during winter. I hope you'll enjoy!
----------------------------------------
I also made a version with the original vocals mixed in if you're curious as to how it could sound (keep in mind that since I simply extracted the vocals from the original song, the sound quality is pretty low, so listen at your own risk!)

After hearing about the P4G port on steam, and having already played through P5, I just had to get my hands on it. And boy is this game amazing, especially considering the fact that it originally came out in 2012. As you might have guessed, my favourite track from its OST is "Snowflakes" for a bunch of reasons. And I therefore had no choice but to orchestrate that masterpiece, and try not to ruin the whole thing!
I tried to stick to your usual orchestral instruments as much as possible... But I couldn't help but bring in the drums and guitars at the end... It was just too good of an opportunity to use a new plugin I recently got my hands on. I also got the help of a good friend on mine for the guitar lead, which really elevated the last section.
However, making this track ended up being really hard and took forever... I always felt like it lacked something, so I kept adding then deleting elements over and over again. I wouldn't say I'm perfectly happy with it right now, but I would still consider this orchestration (somewhat of) a success. Plus I also need to learn to actually finish my tracks, so yeah.
If you see things I could improve on, please tell me in the comments, I'm still a beginner in many ways and any feedback helps a ton. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed!
