Cave In: Dark Driving
This was written over three listens, though one was heavily broken up and might not count. I was looking mostly to just describe the song but I overthought what I was writing and so I don’t think this quite works. … Continue reading
Peter Gabriel: Red Rain
One listen for this one. I’ve been meaning to do this for a few days. Not sure as to why I hadn’t until now, but here it is and I’m not sure if it’s specific or vague. Probably doesn’t matter … Continue reading

Duster: Get the Dutch
This one was one listen which is something I’m glad for as I find it better to do these things in as few listens as possible. Less chance of overthinking which is that part of the aim of this exercise. … Continue reading

Duster: Moon Age
This one was written over three listens. I went more for imagery with this one. It was slow starting, but I picked up speed and wrote most of this quite quickly. I probably could’ve gone for something a bit more … 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

The Tragically Hip: Man
This was written over two listens. I didn’t aim for anything in particular other than trying to capture the song. Probably could’ve done a bit of refining, but I’m mostly content with how this reads, so yeah. The Tragically Hip’s … Continue reading
Atlantis Airport: Events in the Movie
This was written over three listens and a few false starts. I focused on describing the song and I kind of got down an idea of it, but what I wrote doesn’t paint the most detailed picture, so to speak. … Continue reading

Desert Squid: Nanjing West Road
This was written over one listen and it was a bit easier to do so with this song as it’s a slower one, in a sense. Less business at least. Not sure what I was going for here. Maybe a … Continue reading
