Hiroki Kikuta: Powell
One listen. Went in, wrote the below. Surprising. Anyway, I wanted to try and build imagery as strongly as I could, but that didn’t work well. I started thinking too much about what it was that I was writing and … Continue reading

Hiroki Kikuta: Ordinary People
One listen. Initially I was going to do “Another Winter”, but I already had. Decided to jump into this song instead. I focused more on the title and how the sounds reflected it, or how it reflected the sounds. Very … Continue reading

Hiroki Kikuta: Another Winter
This was sort of easy to write and sort of not. There were parts where I stumbled and parts where I was able to switch off. As such I think some of this captures something about the song really well, … Continue reading
Hiroki Kikuta: Evening Star
This was easy and I think it is due to my approach here which was to sort of kind of go for imagery, but closer to a narrative… sort of. It didn’t quite work but I do like the result … Continue reading

Hiroki Kikuta: Fable
One listen for this one but there was a bit of a struggle to get there. Mostly life getting in the way. Then being really tired today. I don’t think the result is anything good. I get an idea of … Continue reading

Hiroki Kikuta: Breezin
Here’s another that I’d been meaning to ramble on about for a bit. I wasn’t sure as to what I was going for here. I was hoping for more visual-type writing and that came trough more toward the end but … Continue reading

Hiroki Kikuta: Angel’s Fear
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

Hiroki Kikuta: Where Angel Fear to Tread
This was written over two listens. I wrote about this one as I kind of wanted to compare it to the opening track for Secret of Mana. They’re similar tracks in terms of mood, but how they carry themselves is … Continue reading

Hiroki Kikuta: Fear of the Heavens
Two listens here. Had no idea as to what I wanted to capture here and so I went ahead and… I’m not sure as to what I’ve done here. Hiroki Kikuta’s (菊田 裕樹) “Fear of the Heavens” (“天使の怖れ”) is from … Continue reading
