Grace Jones: Operattack
One listen. I’ve wanted to cover this song for a bit but haven’t gotten around to it. I think it’s a great bit of music that decontextualises voice in an interesting way. Didn’t get that across though; I stuck to … Continue reading

A Voice in Shadow
Another photo of a member from the band Sorry. When I was photographing the band I was trying to get a lot of moody shots, and this one turned out well. There are some parts of it I wish were … Continue reading

Talk Talk: Chameleon Day
One listen. I gave this one a go a couple of days ago and then put it aside. I was considering doing the same thing I did with the previous Talk Talk song I wrote about, but instead decided to … Continue reading

Anamanaguchi: Mermaid
One listen and I’ve been sitting on this song for a while. I’d decided I’d cover it a good few months ago and kept postponing and that wasn’t a good idea, I think. I probably should’ve covered it when I … Continue reading
猫 シ Corp. & t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者: Sector 131
One listen. I wasn’t sure what would come forward, but I knew I’d be fine so long as what I wrote was coherent. I think this is mostly okay. Some sentences could do with better phrasing and I think what … Continue reading
Peter Gabriel: We Do What We’re Told (Milgram’s 37)
One listen for this one. Just tried to capture the song here. Didn’t aim for more; didn’t aim for less and I think I succeeded to some extent. Peter Gabriel’s “We Do What We’re Told (Milgram’s 37)” is from So. … Continue reading

Blind Idiot God: Voice of the Structure
One listen for this one. I hoped more for imagery more than describing the song and this ended up doing both. I feel like I was too anchored in a sense but I think the result is okay. This is … Continue reading

Jesu: Pity / Piety
I wrote the draft roughly a week-and-a-half ago over one listen, mostly to see if I could. I’m fairly certain I paused a few times here and there just to give me time to work out what I was trying … Continue reading

Principles of Geometry: Springed Dodge
Not too sure what to say with this one. I tried to just write but I couldn’t switch off. I think the result is fine but it doesn’t say enough about the song. Principles of Geometry’s “Springed Dodge” is from … Continue reading
Hiroshi Yamaguchi: Ōkami Shiranui
I wrote this over two listens and the writing didn’t quite pan out. This is one where I thought too much about what I was writing. The result here is that I didn’t cover enough and kind of drifted around. … Continue reading
