Memorex Memories: Pictures of Purple Skies

One listen which is what I’m aiming for. A few pauses, though that’s due to current hearing issues, but anyway. I aimed mostly to not describe imagery. Not sure if I succeeded and I don’t particularly care if I did … Continue reading →

Camera Obscura: Cinematheque

Two listens with a restart a small part into the way of one of them. With this one I started looking to talk about what the instrumentation was doing but stopped doing that really quickly and instead talked about what … Continue reading →

Peter Gabriel: Fourteen Black Paintings

This was slowly written over three listens. I was aiming to avoid imagery (I think) and I mostly succeeded. Still, this doesn’t say too much about the song, though maybe that’s okay. I hope you enjoy. — Woodwind comes in, … Continue reading →

For this one I went more for describing what was happening with the song rather than imagery. Not sure why but I felt it was appropriate. Three listens this was written over. Nobuo Uematsu’s (植松 伸夫) “Eternal” (“悠久の風”) is from … Continue reading →

Nobuo Uematsu: Another Nightmare

I thought this was going to be more difficult to write but I had an easy time. Three listens and focused on describing the song. Sort of did alright. Could’ve done better, but it was a bit of a fight … Continue reading →

Nobuo Uematsu: The North Cave

Alright, so this one was shorter than I thought it would be. Probably due to being tired. Maybe due to doing the writing over two listens. Possibly due to the way the song is designed. There’s an interesting thing about … Continue reading →

Nobuo Uematsu: Another Moon

Six listens for this one. I had a general idea of some of what I wanted to write here. Ended up with something a little shorter than I thought I would, but at the same time, considering the song’s length … Continue reading →
