In the vast expanse of television soundscapes, few compositions capture the essence of human endeavor as profoundly as the opening theme for Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (seasons 1-3), composed by Dennis McCarthy.
youtube
This orchestral masterpiece is more than a prelude to a science fiction series; it is a sonic embodiment of exploration, pride, and awe, resonating with the soul of a show that dared to chart the unknown while anchoring itself in the human spirit.
From its opening notes, the theme evokes a sense of solitude and grandeur. A lone trumpet calls out, piercing the silence like a beacon in the cosmic void. This solitary voice mirrors the station itself—a remote outpost perched on the edge of a wormhole, a "shining beacon in space, all alone in the night." The slow, deliberate tempo draws listeners into the vastness of the cosmos, inviting contemplation of the unknown. It is the sound of exploration, not as a brash conquest, but as a quiet, resolute journey into the uncharted, where every step forward is both a risk and a revelation.
As the composition builds, the introduction of deep, resonant horns adds a layer of gravitas, grounding the theme in a sense of duty and honor. This is the pride of Deep Space Nine—not the arrogance of dominance, but the quiet strength of a diverse crew united by purpose. The theme swells with a symphonic majesty reminiscent of Aaron Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Man, celebrating the resilience of ordinary individuals who rise to extraordinary challenges. It honors the station’s inhabitants—Starfleet officers, Bajoran survivors, and interstellar travelers—who forge a community in the face of isolation, their collective spirit a testament to the enduring power of unity.
The orchestration reaches its zenith with a soaring melody that inspires awe. The interplay of brass and strings creates a dynamic arc, like a ship navigating the stars, rising and falling with the rhythms of discovery. Each crescendo feels like a glimpse of the infinite, a reminder of humanity’s capacity to dream beyond the horizon. The theme’s emotional depth lies in its ability to balance melancholy with hope, capturing the bittersweet reality of venturing into the unknown while embracing the wonder it brings. It is a musical reflection of Captain Sisko’s journey, a leader who carries the weight of command yet finds inspiration in the stars.
What makes this composition remarkable is its ability to transcend its medium. It is not merely a TV theme but a meditation on the human condition. The trumpet’s solitary cry speaks to our individual struggles; the orchestra’s unity reflects our collective aspirations. It stirs feelings of nostalgia for a time when exploration was a shared ideal, yet it remains timeless, urging us to look upward and outward. For those who hear it, the theme is a call to stand taller, to embrace the unknown with courage, and to find pride in the pursuit of something greater.
In an era where media often prioritizes flash over substance, the Deep Space Nine theme stands as a beacon of depth and artistry. It reminds us that exploration is not just about crossing physical frontiers but about delving into the heart of what it means to be human. With every note, it evokes a sense of awe that lingers long after the music fades, a fitting tribute to a show that dared to explore the stars—and the soul—with equal reverence.
Year: 1993
Composition: Dennis McCarthy

listening to the obedience playlist and got to "crush" and listen i know jennifer paige is american but this is one of those songs that is so UK radio to me. i feel like i hear it all the time. americans can't possibly be listening to it that much in 2025
now i need to know if ashenivir would listen to the sugababes. the spice girls, even. in a theoretical AU where the obedience cast is hanging out on modern day earth, what's shen's music taste. what's rizeth's. send help
crush is peak childhood back of the car radio to me, a Very UK Person. i only own that song because it was on an album of similar Types of Songs i had when i was a kid and i've been listening to it for YEARS
modern AU Ashenivir absolutely listens to BOTH of those. he's the coolest boy in the world but he is such a pop girlie and i cannot lie about this. much as i want to just give him my music taste, i don't think he enjoys metal as much as i do. he's chilling out in the girl bands and gay bands section of the playlist store - he is 100% a Marina and the Diamonds Electraheart type of Guy. Kim Petras, Icona Pop. he's got like 2 Pussycat Dolls songs on there.
he definitely had an emo phase, as most of us are wont to do. it didn't stick, but that single G note is a sleeper activation, and he still has a much-played Three Days Grace album kicking around that he puts on if he's feeling particularly angsty
modern AU Rizeth is classical music and classic rock to me. he's such an old man. he has Specific Opinions about versions of various classical songs (opinions i cannot give because i am not a classical music nerd). he enjoys a bit of like. Fleetwood Mac. REO Speedwagon. Crowded House. that kinda thing. maybe some REM or Blondie if he's feeling daring. i think his guilty pleasure artist is Robbie Williams. i just feel that in my heart.

127. Bathory - Bathory (Black/Viking Metal, 1984)
Art by Joseph A. Smith, 1981 - out of the book "Witches" by Erica Jong
The goat was originally meant to be printed in gold. However, this was too expensive to use, so Quorthon asked for it to be as near to gold as possible; the result was a bright yellow color. Quorthon thought it looked "awful", and after the first 1000 pressings it was switched to black-and-white. The yellow cover has become a collector's item, and is now well known as "Gula Geten" ("The Yellow Goat").

When Keith’s girlfriend left him for Jimi Hendrix in the fall of 1966, Anita and Brian took him under their wing. Now everyone was having fun without Mick, and Anita was the ringleader. He’d bullied Brian to tears, but like most bullies, Mick hated being on the outs himself.
Elizabeth Winder, Parachute Women: The Women Behind the Rolling Stones.

OH MY GOD PASTA I SAW U TALK ABT EPIC THE MUSICAL this thought came to me in a dream and it’s like a squirrel planted it deep in my subconscious: red thread matt is so epic odysseus coded to me. the complete devotion and the way they will go feral when it’s about the love of their life like WOWIE!!!! that’s me personally lol maybe im completely off the mark
HE ABSOLUTELY IS THOUGH, I'VE EVEN PUT 'WOULD YOU FALL IN LOVE WITH ME AGAIN' ON THE TRT PLAYLIST! Like holy SHIT the first time I listened to Epic, I was like, '...that's him, this is TRT Matt'. Wanting nothing more than to get back to her. Questioning whether he's a monster, whether she'll still love him when he comes crawling broken and bloodied home to her, he'll come home to her, but at what cost? Everything, he'd give everything for it, and he'll do it again and again and again if she'll have him. His rage at the men who tried to harm her. It is absolutely TRT!Matt coded, and even Matt!coded in general imo, no one can convince me Monster isn't one of his S3 songs.

Top 5 Arthur episodes?
D.W. Goes to Washington: It's a very close race between this one and #2, but I gave the edge to this one because almost every line here is classic. It's full of hilarious Imagine Spots and great D.W. zingers.
The Rat Who Came to Dinner: Another episode that's full of great jokes. The dynamic between Ratburn and Arthur's family is comedy gold.
The Contest: The pastiches of different animation styles alone puts this one in the top five, but it's also in service of some wonderfully absurd mini-stories with classic jokes. ("My brain was on cruise control" is the Arthur quote that gets the most use in daily life).
Buster Hits the Books: The pastiches of the different books are hilarious.
Arthur's Almost Boring Day: I had a very tough time choosing the fifth episode. I went with this one because the fighting between Arthur and D.W. reaches a hilarious fever pitch that goes beyond any other episode.
#answered asks#arthur#arthur pbs#lady-merian#this was extremely fun#and also surprisingly tough to answer because there are tons of episodes that have classic jokes#but it's harder to pinpoint which is the best overall episode#'the blizzard' (the ep paired with 'the rat who came to dinner') totally would have made this list if it weren't for the ouija board joke#my brother (i put this question to him one day) lobbied for the musical episode#which does have a lot of good bits but i had a tough time awarding the fifth spot to something written by That Man#'arthur's almost live not-real music festival' was a contender#but even though the songs are great as an episode it's not as compelling as some others#also when trying to settle on the fifth entry i skimmed through the wikipedia list of arthur episodes#and looking at the list that way#with the writers listed in a column right next to the episode names#individual styles become VERY clear#joe fallon goes for chaos (though he's got a lot of surprisingly tame ones)#kathy waugh has a certain type of heartfelt sentiment#there's a sandra willard who i never noticed on title cards before#but seeing her in the list she has a very distinct style#a sort of off-beat quirky sentimentalism#That Man actually has some really strong episodes early on#but as the seasons go on you see more and more of the preachy Very Special Episodes and they are all his#also going through the list that way reminds me of so many great bits across so many episodes

it really does kill me how at the undergraduate level other disciplines were all like "every system that we use was created by people, so there are flaws and biases built in" and "part of learning is being critical of the work of past scholars" and "new research is always changing the way we think about our field" meanwhile in my music classes they were like "anyway, these three specific dead rich white guys are perfect, practically godlike infallible geniuses who invented modern music as we know it all by themselves and you should never criticize their work or question why you have to learn figured bass"
#honestly very frustrating to me#and i mean like there are def young musicologists and interdisciplinary scholars out there saying this already#it just feels like the broader field is like not really responding to that#and like honestly imo the obsession w romanticization of history in music comes at the cost#of ignoring erasing and/or decontextualizing & whitewashing marginalized voices in the industry#which if we wanna look up some stats we can prove pretty easily#and to be clear im talking about classical music here rn (i.e. western art music)#the level of elitism in the industry is not an accident it's literally baked into the textbooks#and enforced by teachers and scholars who are still so obsessed with being sycophantic about mozart#i really kinda wanna write an essay titled something along the lines of “mozart was not a god”#kinda exploring like. well why mozart was mozart. because anna mozart sure wasn't mozart but she was also a child prodigy so why is that#(it's because she was a woman)#but there's wayyyy more to it than just mozart being male and i think he's a really interesting case study#of how people would sooner credit his talent to literal supernatural forces (yes scholars do this unironically)#than acknowledge his massive amounts of social & financial privilege#or admit he was autistic (tho scholars mostly do acknowledge that one now i think to be fair lol)#i think i once read an article criticizing how heavily bach is revered by music professors im gonna have to try to find that one#anyway this turned into a massive ramble ive just been thinking abt this lately#because after starting grad school and being in another field that is similarly interdisciplinary to music#(and also kiiiiiinda looking into music librarian jobs bc that would be fun imo)#ive just been kinda mentally comparing the two#and i don't wanna say that it's because LIS is female dominated and music is male dominated buuuuut....... if the shoe fits.......#bri babbles

my oral comprehension must be getting better because i just identified (and understood) a lone line of french hidden in a verse of portuguese. to give you a baseline my general problem with understanding spoken french is that much of the time i don't even recognize it as french. i'm like wow listen to all that german!

the vibe for april 22nd is sleeping in. it's haircut day. i always have to take a picture because i can never style it the same way they do. the soundtrack is a cd that always reminds me of high school. so much, that i haven't listened to it in a long time.
