Buildings by the Quay
Here’s a photo of some of the buildings near Circular Quay. Not much to say about this one. It’s neat enough. I think I could’ve done better, but I do like that there’s a sense of depth, and that the … Continue reading

Nobuo Uematsu: A New World
This one took five listens. It was a bit of a struggle to write which may have to do with being tired at the moment. Probably should’ve taken to it earlier. Nobuo Uematsu’s (植松 伸夫) “A New World” (“新しき世界”) is … Continue reading

Nobuo Uematsu: Dark World
Four listens for this one. I had an idea for some lines that would work before writing this and I don’t think I used any of them. I leaned heavily on a sense of the dramatic here which I think … Continue reading

Nobuo Uematsu: Terra’s Theme
This was written over three listens. Wasn’t really aiming for anything in particular with this one. Just started with trying to get the start down and let it run from there. End result is a bit of a mess, but … Continue reading
