This is my instrumental recreation of Platonic Tsuranuite by Kaori Sakagami, ED1 from Ranma ½.

I attempted this project a year and a half ago, but I felt my ability was severely lacking so I abandoned it even after putting in weeks of effort. I've been making steady progress with my FL Studio skills in the time since, so I wanted to give this one another try.
Some miscellaneous thoughts on this project:
-This is a hybrid version between the full song and the shortened version used as the Ranma ½ ED. I included the full length intro while still ending at the same place as the anime.
-Tsugutoshi Goto (composer) is a bassist which you can easily tell because the bass line in this song is the funnest part of the entire thing. The bass line is the main reason why I wanted to recreate this song in the first place because I love it so much.
-Second funnest part is the mallet section at the end of the song, third funnest part is the pitched claps/snaps section right before the final chorus
-The song's BPM speeds up from 139 to something over 140 by the end. I am guessing that the original track wasn't recorded with a click. It made A/B comparisons very difficult. I had to manually cut up the vocal track and rearrange every phrase in order to keep it in time with the rest of the song.
Plugins used: BFD3 (drums), Modo Bass 2 (bass guitar), Roland Zenology (synth bass, brass, strings, mallets, keys), Ample Guitar SC, Session Guitarist Electric Mint, Omnisphere (synth lead)
