all my favourite characters are just me seeing them and going "damn you sure do clean up well but I'd much rather see you grinning with blood between your teeth"

The Wolf Hall OST fucks but does anyone know if Debbie Wiseman was influenced by Judith Weir at all? Especially the cello motif that plays in the Tower of London; the arrangements and some of the unusual tunings remind me of Weir's compositions for strings

the organs the war drums the slow build the invocation of fear oh lawd -- the way its haunting even when his theme is stilted and disparate

the great british bake off c. tom howe / signs (2002) c. james newton howard / the umbrella academy s2e3 c. jeff russo, perrine virgile / the x-files: fight the future (1998) c. mark snow / interstellar (2014) c. hans zimmer

whenever this music starts playing on bake off, my brain goes here. nonsense! this bit of tension-ish music is generic enough it pings on a lot of things so i'm including the umbrella academy and x-files scenes as well because they've been in my notes app to check for years now 😂 just laughing that it's apparently cornfield panic music. all this music gets less and less similar but i'll call it variation on a theme :P the umbrella academy now actually makes me think of the matrix but i couldn't figure out what bit and i've already wasted too much time on something no one cares about 🤪 and i was gonna link how interstellar's cornfield chase is so different - but it's like the hopeful version!
