Five-Hundred Word Challenge 1107: Searching for an Album
I have spent far too much time today looking for an album and it has felt much like a wild goose chase, but perhaps even sillier. All I know is a description of the album cover and a vague idea … Continue reading
Akihiko Narita: Pokke Village Theme
I felt that this was a little difficult to write about as I kind of hit a wall as I was writing. I think that’s why this doesn’t really talk about the song much outside of imagery, but even working … Continue reading

Junya Nakano: Luca
Two listens for this one. I stumbled during the first listen and couldn’t get my footing back so I waited for the song to finish. I then resumed writing and I’m not sure as to what I was trying to … Continue reading

Seiken Densetsu 3 has some pretty heavy tracks to its soundtrack that work really well when used, such as this one. I was trying to get across what I felt the imagery was when divorced from its gameplay-related context and … Continue reading

Soil & “Pimp” Sessions: Storm
This felt really quick and I think it’s due to the song’s energy, as it is an energetic song. I think this may have worked better if I wrote over two listens rather than one as there was a lot … Continue reading

Noriko Matsueda and Takahito Eguchi: Kuon: Memories of Waves and Light
This mostly came easy. I think I stopped a few times but I was still able to get out a fair bit for one listen. I think this is due to not focusing so much on what was happening and … Continue reading

King Crimson: The Power to Believe, Pt. 2
I feel like I was thinking about the song too much and trying to make sense of it even though it makes sense. That said, I do like how some of this turned out. King Crimson’s “The Power to Believe, … Continue reading
