RickyRister | Men Fell From the Sky Like Rain (Arranginal) @RickyRister | Uploaded December 2018 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
EDIT: This song has finally been used in a script! Check it out here: bulletforge.org/u/tressert/p/eastern-sacred-path-sudden-onset-of-masculinity
Title theme: youtu.be/o0iNOMQtWiQ
Stage theme: youtu.be/o2_gB9O8SF8
For those who don't get the reference, youtu.be/l5aZJBLAu1E (seriously, go watch it. It's one of the most ironically good music videos I've ever seen.)
As for why, Tres was the one that wanted me to make a final boss arrange of It's Raining Men, so go ask him.
I was originally aiming for something more along the lines of Painting of Disaster's final boss theme, where the song merely references the original at points, but of course, I'm not Wanwan. So I got lazy and also copied over most of the song structure from the original.
Turns out my method of arranging something is the same as my method for making something more interesting: Just stick counterpoint everywhere!
Luckily for me, It's Raining Men has chord progressions and melodies that wouldn't sound too out of place in Touhou music, which made the whole process a lot easier.
As a side note, is it just me, or is transcribing screeching voice lines really hard?
“Fun had while composarranging” rating: 9/10
