OMORI - My Time (Orchestral Arrangement)

An orchestral arrangement of bo en’s My Time, as heard in OMORI. This arrangement has garnered over 125,000 views on YouTube.

A beast of a song to transcribe– the song rapidly changes keys and uses complex jazz harmony like the Coltrane Changes, which I feel drives the chaotic and unhinged nature of this song. My arrangement takes an unconventional and entropic interpretation of bo en’s sleepy song; I passed the melody around to multiple atypical instruments, such as the trombone and double bass. I also wanted to lean into the chaos and madness of this song, from the spoken vocals (I suppose they're more shouted out) to a near atonal countermelody during the second "breakdown" section.
