Masashi Hamauzu: The Archylte Steppe

When I started doing this one I thought I’d have an easy go with rambling on. In now having just done the writing I feel that that was not quite the case. I think I stumbled a bit as I … 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

King Crimson: The Sheltering Sky

This was written over one listen. I mostly wanted to focus on describing the song and I kind of did that, but I don’t think it makes for interesting writing. King Crimson’s “The Sheltering Sky” is from Discipline. I hope … Continue reading

Motoi Sakuraba: The Second Book

This was written over two listens. With this one I tried less to describe the song and more to capture the imagery of the song. It kind of worked. I think I could’ve done a better job, but I still … Continue reading

Duster: Moon Age

This one was written over three listens. I went more for imagery with this one. It was slow starting, but I picked up speed and wrote most of this quite quickly. I probably could’ve gone for something a bit more … Continue reading

Melbourne CBD During Sunset

Here are three photos of Melbourne CBD during sunset. I like how these photos almost show the passage of time, albeit roughly. I also like the variation in colour. It makes the sunset’s light feel as though it’s concentrated only … Continue reading

Somewhere Along The Hume Highway

I think I stopped at this rest stop rather quickly. I saw it then made the decision to stop here without much time to slow own in a smooth manner. Wasn’t the worst stop I’ve done, but it could’ve been … Continue reading
