Hello everyone!

I transcribed Nareko Michigami’s theme.

Sometimes simple compositions are so beautiful...
The piano and string melodies are very harmonious, and even though the track tries to sound "aggressive" and "heavy" with the guitars, the feeling is completely different, it ends up being a relaxing and mysterious journey.
Once again, ZUN used strings as the main instrument here, and it fits the theme perfectly, they sound amazing.

It wasn’t especially difficult to transcribe, but the mixing was strangely hard to get right, and I spent a long time trying to polish it. At one point, I thought there might be another hidden instrument in the original track helping the mix, but I couldn’t hear anything else contributing (or maybe there really is and my ears just didn’t catch it).
I think I spent more time listening to the original track than actually working on the transcription and the mix... As a result, I ended up exhausted, and left some simple things unpolished (velocities, pitches, volume, etc.).

At last, the demo tracks are finished :)
Now I just have to work on the full game’s soundtrack, it’s going to be a bit tough... but I still have enough energy for Stage 4.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy it!
