Margins: Things Fall Apart

One listen for this one. I tried writing about this song a few hours ago and I couldn’t get it to work. I was stuck on the start and I was finding difficulty in getting the first words out. Came … Continue reading

Margins: Open

One listen for this song. I felt a bit of a struggle in writing this, but it came pretty quickly. This one I’m kind of content with. I feel I could’ve gone into much more detail, but then it would … Continue reading

Gore Tech: Part I: Vibex Divide

This was written over one listen. I restarted the opening seconds a few times to work out what the opening sound was, but other than that this was mostly pretty straightforward to write. I don’t think I switched off enough, … Continue reading

Grün: Angry Bees

One listen for this one. I was hoping to get imagery more than anything else, but I didn’t quite get it and described the song a little too much I think. It’s an instrumental song which I feel is always … Continue reading

Masashi Hamauzu: Final Fantasy XIII-2 Overture

One listen for this one. I haven’t done much, if any writing today and wanted to capture something. This describes the song well enough, but also doesn’t give much of an idea as to how it sounds and progresses. Masashi … Continue reading

Junya Nakano: The Summoning

Josh Johnson: Nerf Day

One listen for this one. I ended up going for describing the song more than going for any imagery and I’m not sure why. I was getting a space-like feel at the start and I didn’t run with it; something … Continue reading

Tadayoshi Makino: Village on the Sea, Moga

Two listens for this one. I was mostly looking to write about imagery and some of that came through, but I feel as though I forced myself too much. Tadayoshi Makino’s (牧野 忠義) “Village on the Sea, Moga” (“海上の村、モガ”) is … Continue reading
