Underworld: Kittens

One listen and this one was good for me because I paid a bit more attention to the song than I usually would. I mean, I always do with this series of writings, but here it was quite helpful. I’m … Continue reading

Underworld: Most ‘Ospitable

One listen, and this felt pretty easy to write. I wasn’t quite in the zone but I was getting there. I was getting close enough. I don’t think what I wrote represented the song well enough, however. It describes it, … Continue reading

Baraki: Boundary

One listen. I also thought a bit about what I was hearing with this one. I was thinking more about how the sounds progressed more than how they worked with each other. I think that came through strongly, and I … Continue reading
