Lake: Tapper

One listen. Decided it’d be good to write about this song from Lake also, though I’m not sure why I decided. Something in it revealed itself to me, I guess. Anyway, I feel this got better the further into the … Continue reading

Lake: Jettison

One listen. I’ve wanted to hold off on writing about this song because I want to write about the album as a whole. It took a long time to get a hold of it, but I don’t know how long … Continue reading

Radiowar: Exchange

One listen. Let go a little with this one. Led to some more repetition than I’d have liked, but this writing feels very… organic, in a sense. I mean, all my writing does to some extent, but this one especially … Continue reading

Yoko Shimomura: Treasured Memories

One listen. I’m not sure what I wrote here. I mean, I can read it and I know what I wrote, but I’m not “sure” of it, if that makes sense. Yoko Shimomura’s (下村陽子) “Treasured Memories” is from Kingdom Hearts … Continue reading

Himuro Yoshiteru: I Wanted a New Life

One listen. I had ideas going into this one, and I’m not sure if I properly realised them. That’s fine, however, as I still capture the song, or at least was getting to a point where I was getting across … Continue reading

Yoko Shimomura: Dearly Beloved

Two listens for this one. A rather iconic piece of music, especially for a particular age group that was into gaming in the early aughts. Certainly iconic to me, too. Tried to avoid that, and I think I did. Tried … Continue reading

One listen. Not sure where I was going with this one. Sort of just describing the song, sort of trying not to. Fumie Kumatani’s (“熊谷文恵”) “Jungle -A Lush Load-” is from Phantasy Star Online Songs of RAGOL Odyssey -Soundtrack EPISODE … Continue reading

Benjamin Briggs: Climb my Mountain, This High

One listen. Heard the opening of this song this morning, decided to hold on it until I could write about it, which was just now. I wasn’t sure what would come forward which is good. No notions or expectations other … Continue reading

Level 99: No Matter Where You go, This Will Always be Home

One listen. I heard this song a couple of hours ago, decided to write about it. It’s pretty pleasant. Pretty straightforward, and that’s all it needs to be. I went in, did my best to capture that, and not sure … Continue reading

These New Puritans: Field of Reeds

One listen. Another TNP song today. Wasn’t expecting it, but I’m writing, so I’m glad. I feel this is a bit better than the last piece. There’s a bit more captured and it feels more expressive, too. A bit messier, … Continue reading
