After a harsh winter, the sun rises above a frozen forest, bringing about a change in seasons. 

It's not quite as conservative as most of my arrangements, but I put a lot of effort into it. I wrote an original haiku specifically for this song(which you can also hear during the intro):

A frozen landscape
The warm sun rising above-
Summer has arrived

An orchestra inspired remix, inspired by Secret of Mana's Protagonist, who lost all the world he knew to accept a mantle thrust upon him by a desperate world.

In winter's night, on the solstice, this is the music by which the wolves howl to, where ice becomes tintinabulation, and wind the flute of the soul.

 

Lyrics (based on Ethereal Vox vocal chops):

 

'Little girl, all night.

Sister for life.

Go rest, alright?

(Ohhh, ah ah ah ah ah ah ahhh...)

Go rest, alright?'

 

The remix of A Wish, done in the styles (and inspired by) the band God is an Astronaut, and The Wingless' (from OCR) song, The Scarlet Halls of Night: https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01459. It's a mix of a classical waltz and more ambient electronica, to try and shift gears a little and see if I can do things that are much more softer, quiet, and thought-provoking.

 

I want to say more, but I shouldn't until voting is over. . . Maybe I will afterwards. ♥ TY for listening. It was an honor and experience in remixing this song.

 

It gave me a lot more meaning to make this song than I thought the exercise / challenge would. . .

There was once an amorphous cloud. One year it decided that all it wanted for Christmas was a proper form. However, what it found instead was sound. It found that sound gave it form. 

**Don't Vote** NVM, not gonna throw my hat in the ring. I wanna give my participants a fair shot and I'm not needed for that sweet Voter +3 entry Voter Bonus...  Looks like a good turnout already.  

Don't vote for the bonus. The sad thing is, this is me trying to stay conservative in my arrangement XD
