One listen. I’ve wanted to do this song for a while, but early on into the writing I sort of hit a point where I started wondering if there was anything I could write. Naturally there always is, but I … Continue reading

Masashi Hamauzu: Luxerion

One listen. I queued this song up a good few weeks ago and then sat on writing about it because no good reason. Right now I’m trying to get things all neat and tidy so I can be caught up … Continue reading

Mitsuto Suzuki: Ouroboros Festival

One listen for this one. There’s something about this song that feels like a prior era of club music, and it’s something that clicked for me, but I didn’t do a good job of getting across that it has that … Continue reading
