Hitoshi Sakimoto: Jahara, Land of the Garif
One listen. I feel I’m not letting go enough and also not taking advantage of what words I know, and so what I wrote here feels quite limited to me. I think I was trying to get across an idea … Continue reading

Hitoshi Sakimoto: The Tomb of Raithwall
One listen. I wanted to try and pull out the “stuffiness” of the song, or rather that’s what was coming to me, but I didn’t feel right putting that forward, so I didn’t, or rather tried not to overtly state … Continue reading

Hitoshi Sakimoto: Abandoning Power
One listen, and to be honest I thought I’d have more to say. It’s a short piece but a rich one, but not much came forward. Happens. Hitoshi Sakimoto’s (崎元 仁) “Abandoning Power” (“捨て去りし力”) is from the soundtrack for Final … Continue reading

Hitoshi Sakimoto: The Dalmasca Estersand
One listen. I think I’ve thought about doing this one before and didn’t. Decided to give it a go a few days ago, and now have done it, and I’m not sure what to make of what I wrote. Could … Continue reading

Hitoshi Sakimoto: Eruyt Village
One listen. Heard this song for the first time in a while a few days ago. Onto the list of things I wanted to write about very soon after. Threw myself in and I think I got a little stuck, … Continue reading

Hitoshi Sakimoto: Small Departure
I just threw myself into this and I think the result here is verbose. I tried to draw from the scene I remember this song playing in and went from there, but now that I think about it I could … Continue reading

Hitoshi Sakimoto: Kind Friends
Two listens for this one. Once more just trying to capture the song. Don’t think I did the best job. I think this would’ve worked better had I allowed more listens and not rushed, but that’s not the aim here. … Continue reading

Hitoshi Sakimoto: The Middle Layer Area
One listen for this one. I decided to write about this song a while ago and then put it to the side. I think I did that as I’m really familiar with the song. Really I shouldn’t have as familiarity … Continue reading

Hitoshi Sakimoto: Breath of Fire V: Dragon Quarter – Opening Animation
Three listens for this one. This is a brief song and so the writing reflects that. However, I feel that perhaps I could’ve written more. I didn’t aim to capture anything in particular, but in saying that I feel as … Continue reading
