One listen.

Not sure if I captured the song well. I wrote about something that came from it, but I’m not sure if I expressed the mood coming through well.

Masafumi Takada’s (高田 雅史) “Hotel” is from Killer7 Original Sound Track, the soundtrack for Killer7.

I hope you enjoy.

Lingering, spacey keys move, feel a bit off. Feel a bit tense. Suddenly a release that lasts a short time, then back to the fragility. There’s thought here; there’s thinking, perhaps reflection. Wondering what is as they keys play with space and volume, slowly pacing about, moving here and there but not really moving anywhere.

A moment of relief brushed aside by pressing further down, and the keys retain their precision, and come to a rest before going back to thinking. Going back to the sense of offness. Playing with space and playing with the dark.

There seems to be a resolute familiarity of a space, and being trapped in that space, or at least feeling trapped. There is something that is searching beyond what a train of thought provides, and the keys shrink and expand as they echo, and move between comfort and discomfort. Eventually they fade out, and the song ends.
