What is Arrange Fest.?

冬休みアレンジ祭 in 2021 - TwiPla
Arrange Fest is an event where people gather to remix songs (in Japanese this is called an “arrange”) however they like.
The event consists of two periods for making one song each: original and remix.
When making original, there are no restriction - you can make a song that you’re most
comfortable with.
When you submit your original, it is sent to a random participant
while you also receive a song made by another random participant.
This marks the start of the remix period.
Even the remix period has no restriction - you may remix the song
as your style, or if you dare, completely destroy the original -
you are totally allowed to go rampant as hard as your heart’s content!
Each participant ends up with two songs, all of which will be published in the grand listening party.
Oh, did I tell you that the participants don’t even know who will remix their song or whose song they are remixing? It is only revealed at the final party.
Here are my two entries for this event:
Original
Time to utilise my comfort! It’s a full-fledged “Wave”-genre song.

What I received was a fantasy-esque song simply titled “Nostalgia”.
To me, this sounded like what came from a game or something,
so I fused it with my past work “Q” to make a JRPG-esque soundtrack remix!
