Joe Hisaishi: …and Alone

Posted on February 23, 2026 by Stupidity Hole

Nobuo Uematsu: Prelude to the Void

Posted on February 4, 2026 by Stupidity Hole

I did this one over one listen, and I think the main reason why is that I’m highly familiar with the song. I think that, having not listened to it in a good while also helped as I wasn’t overthinking. … Continue reading →

Retro Remix Revue: Donkey Kong – Aquatic Ambience

Posted on July 2, 2025 by Stupidity Hole

One listen. I wrote this in part for similar reasons as to why I wrote about Retro Remix Revue’s cover of “Secret of the Forest”: I thought it’d be interesting to do so after writing about the original. This one … Continue reading →

Lake: Jettison

Posted on April 11, 2025 by Stupidity Hole

One listen. I’ve wanted to hold off on writing about this song because I want to write about the album as a whole. It took a long time to get a hold of it, but I don’t know how long … Continue reading →

Nobuo Uematsu: The Mines of Narshe

Posted on December 14, 2024 by Stupidity Hole

One listen. This is a song I’m quite familiar with, and my comfort in that familiarity may have hampered the writing a bit as instead of switching off, I wrote what I already thought, mainly. There are some parts of … Continue reading →

Five-Hundred Word Challenge 1413: Only so many hours

Posted on October 7, 2024 by Stupidity Hole

Five-Hundred Word Challenge 1341: Still Fried

Posted on February 7, 2024 by Stupidity Hole

Still fried, but maybe less so. However, now disequilibrium kicks in and it’s all fun and games until… yeah. So I’m sitting here and I’m wondering to myself about how to best navigate the rest of the day. I’m sitting … Continue reading →

Spencer Nilsen: Jurassic Beach

Posted on January 16, 2024 by Stupidity Hole

One listen. I feel like I tried to force this writing in a particular direction and I don’t think it worked. There was a bit of reaching throughout (and that continued on through the next two) and so I feel … Continue reading →

Masanori Hikichi and Miyoko Kobayashi: Tunnel Inside the Sun

Posted on October 5, 2023 by Stupidity Hole

One listen for this one. I struggled to get to a point where I’d start writing and I think that maybe writing about this song wasn’t the best idea. When I got started I was okay but it took a … Continue reading →
