One listen.

I thought I was done with this soundtrack. Put it on for my bus ride this morning, heard some stuff that caught my ear in a way it hadn’t before, decided to churn out a few more scribbles.

I don’t know what was going on here. I went more for imagery, or rather a sense of expression and it kind of works. Kind of doesn’t. Oh well.

Kimitaka Matsumae’s (松前公高) “The Blue Cocoon Master ~ Koris” (“青の繭使い〜コリス”) is from Tamamayu Monogatari Original Soundtrack, the soundtrack for Jade Cocoon: Story of the Tamamayu.

I hope you  enjoy.

A heavy and important tune starts playing, and the sounds keep it going. Percussion, strings and a whistle or woodwind continue on, pressing, urging and showing some reverence. Among it a sense of adventure; a sense of the dramatic flows forward as the sounds lower and lower, deferring to wisdom and experience.

They continue on, as though carrying upon a breeze. As though following a wind to wherever it directs, and that sense of adventure remains, and perhaps a little ridiculousness, too. But it is difficult to linger on that, for the music urges. It urges to press on and look forward, and it keeps going steady, continuing on to follow words.

Eventually everything pulls away, leaving one sound to fade out at the song’s end.
