Weird Fishes – Draft
This started back in April last year. I probably did the bulk of the writing in July, and very slowly got it to final draft a few weeks ago, then started chipping away. It took a long time. A lot … Continue reading

Kimitaka Matsumae: Staff Roll
One listen, and I was a bit surprised as to how little I was able to pull from what I was hearing. I think I went too hard early on which caused me to stumble a bit. Kimitaka Matsumae’s (松前公高) … Continue reading

Kimitaka Matsumae: Syrus Village
One listen. Went in, wrote away, stopped. Usually how these things go. This one, I think I was trying to paint the imagery of where the song is used and I didn’t do well there. Some vague notions, but that’s … Continue reading

Talk Talk: Time It’s Time
One listen. I planned on doing writing about this song a while ago and ended up putting it to the side. I think my feeling on it was that it was too much of a song or something, as though … Continue reading
