One listen.

Heard this song a few days ago, queued it up. Getting back into the swing of things (I hope), so need to get back to working on being on top of everything. And it is work, but I’ll get there.

Anyway, I went in. Tried to just capture the song. Bit of repetition, or rather hesitancy to progress, but I think I captured an idea of the song well enough.

Yoichiro Yoshikawa’s (吉川洋一郎) “Castle Nixe” (“ニクス城”) is from Aqua Fantasty (アクア・ファンタジー).

I hope you enjoy.

Bright, muted sound shimmering and shining through a thick area. A thick atmosphere. Calm, gentle, peaceful. Perhaps joyous. Slow and wafting. Another rises, plays fast and slow. Rises, falls, sinks, comes to a rest, then goes right back up.

Everything moves carefully. Everything seems to move with a deliberate slowness. Aside from this one sound. Everything seems to be about a calm idea of the ocean under the surface. Sounds move here and there as though schools of fish, and various other biota. Some appear for brief moments; others stay a little longer.

Currents move almost imperceptibly, or at least seem like that is the case. Sounds sway and move as needed, and everything is held still in a moving time. Everything is held still, and everything moves with a vividness. The grandeur comes through, and something shines in from above. Something shines in and disappears, and all is calm, and fades out at the song’s end.
