Hello everybody!
It took me a long time, but finally I was able to finish the video of this arrangement at someone's request.
Primrose is one of my favorite Th15.5 tracks so I had a lot of fun making this arrangement. As I have never done a UFO style arrangement before, the result sounds a bit chaotic, but I can learn from my mistakes for the future.
I hope to continue making these style changes, they are quite refreshing to tell the truth.
Anyway, enjoy!

I'm happy to see this video, you doing another arrangement in a non-modern style. And I like your boldness in doing this with a Touhou theme that isn't composed by ZUN.
This arrangement is very good, full of life, atmosphere and fun like UFO themes. I didn't realize how the "Primrose" version of this theme sounds so ZUN-like until now, and with this arrangement, it sounds even more ZUN-like. The Reed Romance, these quirky guitars and instruments emulate the style well.
At first I found the use of Reed Romance strange, as it is practically never used in such fast melodies in UFO (I mean, this only applies to stage themes), but then I realized that this is a theme that represents a scenario and a boss at the same time in AoCF, so it was actually quite smart to make an arrangement that united characteristics of boss themes and stage themes from UFO.

As I am not familiar with modern styles, they are quite difficult for me. That's why I don't make the attempt to make arrangements in this style that often.
The arrangement came up at the request of a PoB user, and I thought it was an interesting idea so I did it.
I decided to use Reed romance because the fast melody reminded me of Nazrin's Theme, and as such the whole arrangement is inspired by the styles of Boss 1, Stage 2, Stage 3, Stage 4 and Boss 6. I think all those tracks had Reed Romance in them too, it's funny.
Thanks so much for your comment, I'm glad you loved the arrangement!
