Orbital: Dŵr Budr
This one was easy in parts and difficult in others. I think I started thinking too much at points; I’m not sure. Anyway, this sort of gets an idea of the song across. There are some parts here that work … Continue reading

Michiko Naruke: A Flashing Blade in the Blue Skies
This was two listens. This is another one where I just described the song. What I did was pretty vague and flat and I think maybe I was expecting to get more out and thought too much about what I … Continue reading

Michiko Naruke: Sand Clouds, Surging Away
Two listens for this one. I tried to focus more on describing the song and I feel that was not a good idea. I started thinking about the quality of the sounds used a little too much and it threw … Continue reading

Michiko Naruke: Distant Days of Rest
I’m really not sure as to what I was going for with this. I think Michiko Naruke (なるけみちこ) is a really solid composer in many ways. She quite effectively gets across atmosphere and emotive content where necessary and more often … Continue reading

Yuko Komiya: Everlasting Words
This is another song I’ve had queued up for a while. It was fairly straightforward to write about and I think that has to do with me being familiar enough to have an idea of how the song goes, but … Continue reading

Mars Kumari: Arcade Dimension
I was going to do this one tomorrow but decided it would be better to do tonight for some reason. Anyway, I’m surprised that I got as much as I did out of one play of this song as it’s … Continue reading

Mars Kumari: Funeral Day
This was really easy to write and I’m glad as I feel this reads decently. I’m certain it could be much better, but this still feels like an improvement. Mars Kumari’s “Funeral Day” featuring Nina Spheres is from MARS KUMARI … Continue reading

Joe Hisaishi: Wave Cruising
This was over two listens. Had some difficulty getting going at the start and the song seemed to keep getting ahead of me which probably means I should’ve kept my sentences brief. I’m okay with the result but I feel … Continue reading

Joe Hisaishi: Island Song
I wrote about this song last night and I found the result to be more lacking than usual so I decided to see if I could do better today. The result is similar but it reads better I feel. There’s … Continue reading

Stara Rzeka: BHMTH (czyli historia z wujkiem Albertem)
There was a period of time where I was listening to this song a lot. It has been a while since then and in the intervening time between then and now I’ve listened to the song only a small handful … Continue reading
