Yoshitaka Hirota: Deep Meditation ~ Title
For a while I wanted to write about “Advertise I” and so it was sitting in my queue. I thought this song was the following one until a few days ago when I listened to the Shadow Hearts II soundtrack again … Continue reading

Yoshitaka Hirota: ~ICARO AGAIN ~ Advertise II
Once more I wrote quickly. Not sure what I was trying to capture with this one, but I feel I did alright in terms of describing what happens during the song. It sort of feels like the second part of … Continue reading

Yoshitaka Hirota: Prelude~ ~ Advertise I
This was written over one listen. I wrote quickly and tried to capture a sense of the otherwordliness that the song sort of gets across, but I don’t think I did a good job. Yoshitaka Hirota’s (弘田佳孝) “Prelude~ ~ Advertise … Continue reading

Dirge: Alma
One listen for this one. I kind of took my time and didn’t try to focus on one particular thing. I could’ve written a lot more, but I didn’t and instead wrote slowly, which I feel worked better here. Dirge’s … Continue reading
Big Dead: Bellbird
One listen for this one. I was trying to go for something. I think I was trying to get across the feel and flow of the song more than anything else, but I don’t think either came across too well. … Continue reading
Natural Life Essence: Dune [Beginning]
One listen for this one. I wanted to go for imagery but I didn’t quite know how to go about it, so I tried to go for what the song (and the album as a whole) seemed to be trying … Continue reading
Saori Kobayashi: The Breath of Life
One listen for this one. However, a couple of restarts early on as I got stuck on a word and lost pace. Probably should’ve just let the song repeat so I could’ve gotten a bit more down. I’d been meaning … Continue reading

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
