Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares: Pora Sotunda

Posted on March 18, 2026 by Stupidity Hole

One listen. I had a fair bit of concern doing this as I was worried about wandering into misrepresentation. I didn’t want to do something like say “deep spirituality ethnic sounds”. Admittedly that’s a bit dramatic, but to me it … Continue reading →

Posted on March 13, 2026 by Stupidity Hole

One listen, and it seems I wanted to use “frolicking” a few times. When I wrote this, I think I was struggling to get started, which is why this feels as stilted as it does. Austin Wintory’s “The Road of … Continue reading →

Masashi Hamauzu: Dust to Dust

Posted on March 11, 2026 by Stupidity Hole

One listen, and this is sort of a slow song. It feels slow in how it moves and progresses, and I think that works really well for where it is used. Some of that came through in the writing, and … Continue reading →
