Nobuo Uematsu: Blue Fields
This was written over three listens. With this one I wasn’t sure what I was going for. I think I was looking to express imagery coming forth from the song as a result of describing what was happening with the … Continue reading

Nobuo Uematsu: Main Theme of Final Fantasy VII
This was written over one listen. I didn’t overthink what I was writing; just went into it and mostly described some of what was happening in the song. Probably could’ve written more, but I’m content with the result. Nobuo Uematsu’s … Continue reading

Principles of Geometry: Hauntitled
This was written over four listens. I didn’t aim for anything other than writing about the song. Didn’t try to lean toward description of what was happening or any imagery or suggested emotion and just let stuff come forward. A … Continue reading

A Patch of Water Among Water
