Beat in the Dark
Getting a good photo of a percussionist is something I often find a challenge due to their usual positioning in a live setting, or at least the positioning they’re in that I’ve mostly had to work with thus far. They’re … Continue reading

Michiko Naruke: A Flashing Blade in the Blue Skies
This was two listens. This is another one where I just described the song. What I did was pretty vague and flat and I think maybe I was expecting to get more out and thought too much about what I … Continue reading

Michiko Naruke: Distant Days of Rest
I’m really not sure as to what I was going for with this. I think Michiko Naruke (なるけみちこ) is a really solid composer in many ways. She quite effectively gets across atmosphere and emotive content where necessary and more often … Continue reading

Hiroshi Yamaguchi: Sei-an City (Aristocratic Quarter)

Rei Kondoh: Cursed Sei-an City

Zu: Ostia
This one I think I was getting across the song as it progressed and little else. It’s an interesting song and it works well with what it is doing which I won’t get into more than below as it is … Continue reading
Pelican: An Inch Above Sand
This one I’d queued up a few days ago. I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to get something out of the song but apparently I did. A bit more descriptive of how the song proceeds which is not quite … Continue reading

Men I Trust: Organon
I’d been meaning to ramble about this song for a few days and now I have. I stuck mostly to description and I think that worked as the song went by much faster than I had anticipated so I wasn’t … Continue reading
