One listen for this one.

I didn’t know what I was going to do going into this which led to just describing the song. I think it worked though. There were some parts where I started falling behind but due to how the song flows I was able to catch up so I wasn’t too rushed. That said, I think the writing is a bit flat.

Takuya Kuroda’s “TKBK” is from Fly Moon Die Soon.

I hope you enjoy.

The sounds of a station and people talk over a steady beat. It all fades away, then the beat comes back in whilst a bass sound smoothly slides along. Brass enters with a sort of soft joy. It takes a breather so more synth can come in, then returns and the sounds are layered in a way, doing their own thing that builds on the melody in a cohesive way.

The beat takes a shift, almost cruising whilst the other sounds dance around. The details of scenery come through as the sounds grow busier, but nothing is fully revealed.

Suddenly it’s just percussion and brass. The brass plays long and short and as it does that bass sound returns, peering at the edges. More brass comes in to build on the rhythm whilst the main continues its motion and movement in quick and slow and quick.

Then it’s just percussion and synth building a familiar, yet new melody and rhythm. Bass sound returns to the edges once more. Vocals come in as does brass. Here the vocals take centre stage, calm, revealing things but in quiet, yet prominent tones. The brass is at the edges and then it all returns to that cruising moment.

The sounds are free but focused, keeping things sleek and sharp. They go on until the opening beat returns. Voices come in, the beat echoes out, someone says something about going and the song ends.
