Solaris: Rays of the Sun
One listen for this one. There’s a lot and also not much going on in this song and I felt it difficult to keep up with what was going on. I think that’s due to needing to go to sleep … Continue reading
The Oscillation: Visitation (Exit)
One listen for this one. I started off trying to work with imagery more than anything, but I think I was trying to use imagery to describe how the song progressed. I think some of that came forward, but not … Continue reading

Peter Gabriel: Sky Blue
This was one listen, but I had to rewind a little at one point. The reason being is that I paused the song for a reason for which I cannot remember. By the time I returned I couldn’t remember what … Continue reading

The God Machine: The Hunter
Another one that was one listen. This one was quite difficult. I tried writing it earlier today but had a lot of trouble getting started and so I stopped (though the stopping was also due to needing to head out). … Continue reading

3nd: Monsoon
One listen for this one. I aimed to describe the song rather than anything else. I’ve left this far too late in the evening and so I didn’t feel I’d do well trying something else. 3nd’s “Monsoon” is from World … Continue reading
Junya Nakano: Signs
This was written over one listen. I was trying to express the beauty of this song but I don’t think I pulled it off. I feel I focused too much on getting to certain words rather than write something that … 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

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

Pinegrove: Need 2
This was three listens I was looking to capture something about the song and I feel I was doing alright, but at one point I began to move into review mode which I wanted to avoid. I feel that, as … 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
