Request filling time, and some pretty old requests at that. Requests from back in the PC-98 compilation. I got like 5/6 requests for Casket of Star, Marisa's PC-98 theme, but at that time I didn't have anything that groundbreaking so I didn't put anything up, but now. Don't worry everyone, I want you all to know that if you have sent a PM and I haven't answered it must be that I just forgot to respond, but do not worry, I have read every single one of the requests you have sent me, as long as they are PMs I will be able to keep track of them (as long as Youtube doesn't delete my inbox again). I will take care and try to fulfill all the requests you guys send me, even if they sometimes seem impossible.

I downloaded this album on a whim, the cover art wasn't all that nice at all (way too moe-moe for me to expect anything like this, and let's face it, the cover art is very important in attracting people's attentions) and most of the album was pretty boring techno stuff, until track 10, I swear I fell off my chair when this arrange reached my ears. What can I say? I know Golden City Factory, and know of the fact that they are good arrangers, I'll admit I also like some of their techno songs, their jazz songs are great and they do have some orchestral potential, from what I've heard in the past, but I'll admit I was not expecting something like this.

For those who have not played the PC-98 games, you should at least know that Marisa was originally a villain, servant of Mima. Thus she inevitably has a sort of "evil" side to her. This is her theme from TH4, Lotus Land Story, it's also one of the "better known" PC-98 themes. Mostly made popular by the fact that it was Marisa's theme in SWR, a rockish arrange done by U2 and ZUN.

It's a very good arrange, it's not "JUST" an orchestral cover, it also adds a certain flare, the choruses, the chanting in the middle and the presence of organs, I'll admit it's very original as far as orchestral arranges go. Now we know that if Golden City Factory wants and if they pump up that orchestral engine of theirs, they can make some solid stuff, keep up the good work guys (and, hopefully, try to release more stuff like these).

Btw, I found this in a C77 album, but it supposedly was released earlier, not sure about this, but might be so. Also, guys, I got some of TAM's new albums, and they contain some gorgeous arranges, look forward to some good stuff (and 85centimeters stories, if possible) in the next uploads.

Thanks for watching!
