Watching Violet Evergarden. This is quite possibly the prettiest anime I’ve ever seen, and it makes me feel a kind of way.
#violet evergarden#her Japanese va also played 2B in nier automata which seems fitting#i get why people compared frieren to this thing now#they even have the same composer

Cool awesome reminder that you don’t need amazing technical skill to be a good artist/storyteller
#I still compare myself to other people but also like. Damn. What if I don’t need to#That’s literally what working with other people is for . so you can fill in for eachother and make an awesome thing :)#Reminder that Toby Fox is not a skilled visual artist LOL he makes concept art in mspaint#Ik He’s more of a composer / character writer but you know what I mean. He works with other people to bring those ideas to life#You don’t have to be good at everything !!#Txt#art#I say this because rendering pieces of art takes me dozens of hours and it’s literally so much work and I hate it sometimes#Ok then make a simple stylistic choice instead of doing a giant painting !! it will still carry the same or maybe even greater impact#I still want to make awesome giant beautiful pieces of art (illustration) but alas I don’t have infinite energy#I usually only make sketches instead and that doesn’t mean they’re unfinished. Maybe that’s just all they’re meant to be#Until I change my mind at least 🩷#Adhd#Honestly anything that gets your idea across is good enough. Depends on the idea

guess who somehow got roped into being principal cellist for an ensemble whose concert they are not even going to play on
#it’s me.#sighhhhh. I love my conductor and I love this ensemble it is so hard to say no to her so I just didn’t#the thing is the concert is the same fat as battle road 250. so. I will be in massachusetts that weekend lol#*day#also like. insane that I am somehow the cellist with the most seniority here considering I am not even a performance major#like ensemble-wise yeah I probably have more seniority than any other cellist because I Have The Baroque Music Special Interest and have#been a part of it basically every semester I’ve been here#but I am objectively not the Most qualified instrumentalist for the position. however it seems I am the most qualified they could get lol#but whatever she needs a principal cellist to help along the other cellist whom I have never met or played with before#and I get it it’s important to have a solid continuo section#but. I was kind of looking forward to having my sunday evenings free if I wasn’t going to play the concert at the end of it all#but whatever. whatever! I Care Too Much#mine#composerposting#< decidedly Not one of my Composer Endeavours but that’s the Music Student Tag

Lord of the Flies, Gluttonous Queen, Prince of Filth, Prince of Decay, Goddess of Ekron, Lord of Slander, Queen of Pestilence and Famine, The Rotting One
I Solomon said unto him: “Beelzeboul what is thy employment?” And (s)he answered me: “I destroy kings. I ally myself with foreign tyrants. And my own demons I set on to men, in order that the latter may believe in them and be lost. And the chosen servants of God, priests, and faithful men, I excite unto desires for wicked sins, and evil heresies, and lawless deeds; and they obey me, and I bear them on to destruction. And I inspire men with envy, and desire for murder, and for wars, and sodomy, and other evil things. And I will destroy the world.” - The Testament of Solomon
#oc: bael roach/beelzebub#dw i got you her first name is pronounced like belle#it's spelled bael to be close to the hebrew name of ba'al zebuv#she's so special to me i love writing characters like her#she's a bit narcissistic and has her own brand of a chaotic tantrum throwing temper but she can be REAL creepy sometimes#she's also a big party girl who's always overdressed for the occassion#and since beelzebub is the sin of gluttony she's constantly eating drinking and smoking in my mind#the funniest thing about me that even tho i have entomophobia i like insect imagery and symbolism with my characters#and well she's literally beelzebub she can basically control any kind of bugs and stuff#i also like the living hive concept a lot so yeah.... there're bugs living inside of her body#i mostly picture her with cockroaches flies skull moths and mantises crawling around her shoulder and face a lot#she's like gru with the minions she can tell all of them apart and remembers everything about them#she's not part of any fandom but i ship her a lot with woland their dynamic would be crazy#two chaotic iteration of the devil stirring the pot but since woland is more composed and calculated he'd balance her over the top#and dramatic mess of a personality out quite well#they'd crash each others parties and stuff and have a heated banter but actually wouldn't lay a finger on each other#in fact if you remotely try to insult or dare i say hurt one of them the other would go and whoop your ass bc they're offended#also fun fact i love the idea that the rest of the seven deadly sins were once high ranking angels who betrayed heaven for lucifer#so it'll go the same for my girlie too#i headcannon that she still has her wings but they turned into a more insectoid kinda thing#my moodboards :3

btw, here's what the current OST lineup for thralls' first episode looks like :>
#thoughts#thralls of power#animatic project#there's still QUITE a lot left to do#messengers isn't even started (but it's short not even a minute so we'll manage)#courtly whispers I have tried like 4 different versions and none truly satisfy me so uhhrhhh#confrontation is a behemot and also gave me a lot of trouble but I think I finally have something I'm happy with mood-wise#even if I still have over 5 minutes left to compose and the hardest parts too!!!#and golden light is just the credits music so it'll be the same for every episode#I'm not being as efficient as I'd like with them but I'm still making progress#and I have complicated tracks started for episode 2 and 3 already and they're cool I think!

me fumbling a turn in wild flight and crashing for the 8th time: stewart copeland had to do this too...
#it's one thing to imagine developers working through their game in frustration. but a game's composer(s) is an even funnier image#gritting teeth through a difficult section in silence And you have to work out its vibe at the same time

I need to educate myself further on the depths of early tech advancements and video art, but eventually I'd love to make a video essay about how it connects to electric dreams because I truly believe that in a way it's a love letter to the rising genre of video art and electronic sound art present in the movie's time period. I know it I just need more context to make proper connections.
#i mean#28 years before you had the first movie with an entirely electronically composed score that wasnt even allowed to be credited as music#it was instead credited as 'electronic tonalities' as it wasn't seen as 'real' music#a lot of early tech art and integration was highly criticized at the time#for ED to turn around and make the presence of tech and art relating to it an integral component of the movie in both production + thematic#idk. theres much to observe with the movies presence in its time period#which is also why a remake I feel may not carry the same message as the context surrounding the movie's themes are much different now#or maybe i just have a bias to early tech art lol

i am going to be fully driven insane by having to live with my parents
#i am SO NORMAL about being fitted into a strict schedule that gives me a quick chain of stress-coping mechanisms-falling asleep speedrun#in the evening in a timing that absolutely guarantees i will miss at least two hours of sleep per night#i used to be able to just fix myself a meal at 12yo WHAT HAPPENED why can't i fucking stand the idea anymore#how did they manage to make me internalize so deeply that i owe them to always be there for them despite not liking it despite the triggers#i wanted a burger tonight it's been so long. i asked my mom if we could go get a burger mom said yes#dad wanted to go and eat at the fucking fast food place as a fun wittle family outing#if i had gotten the burger i'd probably had have to eat it at the dinner table with them anyway#it doesn't matter because i can't get a burger#i can't get a burger before coming home i can't go out later and get a burger i'll always have to be there at eight thirty#to eat the same crap#i want to have a calm moment i want to have a break but i've perverted those into mental illness because i got too attached to them#now i have nothing i just feel like shit whatever i do#i deserve to die i don't even know how anyone can compose with that#how the fuck did we build someone like me#but i'm financially dependanttttttttt so i'm stuck hereeeeeeeee and i'm so fucking abnormal i'll probably never find a jobbbbbbb#i can't take a breakkkkk or tell anyone how i'm feelingggggg because they'll feed me the same shitttttt#about how persevering in a path i'm failing at and that makes me unhappy either way is the moral and virtuous solutionnnnnn#and they're right because there's nothing for me out thereeeee i have to conform to the system and the system doesn't work without moneyyyy#so i have to leech off of my parents to surviveeeeee except being near them makes me mentally illllll and leeching off of them also doessss#my stomach hurts#broadcasting my misery#vent

never thought i'd see people try to argue or analyse wriothesley's murder in regards to his personality. i think people are missing the point. the situation has nothing to do with him and has everything to do with an extremely traumatic environment that made a small boy think the only solution so save himself and the people he cared about was to take the life of his abusers. it's not supposed to be rational, it wasn't premeditated, it wasn't about getting away with it. if you read his description of the murder you can see how out of it he was. his goal was to protect himself and his siblings and that's what he did. that's why he admitted to the crime so easily and why he is keen to associate the fortress as a rebirth place. he was just young, lost and traumatised and that's about it when it comes to the extension of it all.
#people acting like they're disappointed because he's a 'manipulative' and cunning individual or because he's cold and that it doesn't match#the crime as if at that time he wasn't just a kid experiencing extreme distress and without a safe space to seek help#i also don't personally think he's manipulative at all. he isn't like ayato or yae miko. he has very strong values and he does everything#to abide to that. if that means ommiting information at some point to make the best out of a situation he will do so but he doesn't do#things for personal gain and as soon as he can be truthful he lays all the cards on the table#this reminds me of that ayaka situation where people tried to paint her as manipulative when all she did was ask the traveller to hear#people's stories so traveller could take their own conclusions about the situation in inazuma shsjsh#it's also the way wrio isn't even cold. he's serious and composed but goddamn if he didn't show how empathetic he is#also how lightweight his personality is during the archon quest...#at this point i'm just questioning myself if we're even playing the same game#wrio 'i believe in restorative justice rather than punishment' the slay#wrio 'there's a prophecy about a flood dooming the entire country so i'm taking matters into my own hands and building noah's ark to save#my people' the slay#wrio 'i have no reason to trust you but i will still offer you a cup of tea' the slay and people still try to pain him in an obscure light#he's not even that morally grey 😭 he's morally gray in the sense everyone is#wanting to stop people who hurt others isn't controversial or shouldn't be#also because we KNOW that's his last resource#his job is literally to give people a second chance the same way he took his except he actually wants to make life easier for others#than it was for him and people are so vocal about how grateful they are of him like???#he's such a good guy genuinely#and just because he's intelligent and usually composed doesn't mean he isn't emotional sensitive or even prone to being put in situations#where's he's forced to react a certain way because that's just human nature#he's literally just a silly guy with trauma and big responsabilities set him free from the shackles of mischaracterization please 😂#not that i'm better i'm a fool i may just be talking shit really#but seeing people act like the murder is somehow badly written or that he is dark and dangerous make me go ???#having the ability to do something doesn't define you as a person and i feel like judgement without context makes no sense#but maybe that's just me

i have 100% said this before, but who knows how long ago that was, and maybe it bears repeating so like. even though i'm so familiar with this particular track and its source that i know where a bunch of the action beats from the movie go in relation to it, i still have such aggressive insistence in some part of my brain that goes [THIS IS A HENRY TRACK] it's really funny. the whole thing yes absolutely but in particular [when it picks up around here] and !!!! also gosh just the way it takes those turns around determined -> mischievous -> triumphant -> SOARING and back through them and over itself and it's ! just !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#something something freedom is love themes#something something representing the best of the place you come from (even though it also gets you into scrapes)#...something something same composer so the overall Vibes aren't dissimilar#also the driving downbeat in this is so. it's a horse gallop and this makes sense but also just as a pace and a rhythm it's so#words not working but u get me i know u do. i know u do#i haven't been rly rocked by a movie score in a long time but i also have not seen very many new movies of late hmm

also the difference in orchestration vs the original vs later (movie) add ins is really interesting to me. we're subbing in something good in place of an ordinary couple in act ii and it has FOUR instrument changes between EH and oboe within the one number (a whopping 89 measures). only Once in the entire rest of the score (all original to the stage show. we didn't get the rights to i have confidence lol) is there an instrument change mid-number (it's during the dance in sixteen going on seventeen)
#sasha speaks#oboeposting#i wonder when something good was orchestrated. and by whom. it'd be interesting to see if it's the same as the original stage show's book#plus comparing to later written shows by other composers it seems like the closer you crept to the 21st century the more mid-number#instrument changes you're likely to get. when i did les mis they were all over the place#(granted les mis has some lengthy musical numbers/sequences but still)#maybe it's something to do with later shows trying to squeeze as much color/timbre change as possible out of as few instrumentalists#it's no secret that pits have trended smaller and smaller over the decades. even professional broadway and tour companies doing SoM#these days don't do the full orchestrations anymore. basically only opera houses and universities do bc they actually have full orchestras#at their disposal rather than pro musical theater companies who are hiring musicians on contract#anyway. interesting to me#(also i looooove playing EH in this there are some great EH lines in it)

category 5 "realized my set class analysis is wrong and now i can't make this post-tonal variation say something noteworthy relative to the theme" event
#teaposts#not fandom#for the super-not-musical folks in the crowd: AAAAAAAAAAA#for the moderately musical folks in the crowd: the piece i'm analyzing includes a theme and variations#and in classical music that usually means the basic tune stays the same in the variations but the rhythm or harmony changes#think 'twinkle twinkle little star' vs 'the (english) alphabet song' (the tune is by mozart originally!)#however comma. composers did a lot of crazy shit in the 20th century. which is when my piece is from#so the relationship between theme and variation is not so simple here. the variations have very little to do with rhythm and harmony#and even (at face value) very little to do with the actual theme you hear#i've come up with other reasons that the previous variations are in fact related to the theme#my original reason for the variation i'm talking about now was that it uses almost the same notes as the theme but in a different structure#but apparently i analyzed it wrong and the notes in this variation actually aren't as similar to the theme's as i thought#and i'm having a hard time getting it to come back together again#so. um. AAAAAAA

I need to stop romanticizing careers I am not mentally stable enough to maintain
#man it just. it's so hard#it's so hard because I love music so much but deep down I know I don't have it in me#I love everything about composing but I don't have the creative fortitude to make that the source of my income#a conducting student once told me I should go into conducting and I briefly considered that fantasy but the truth is I just don't have the#personality for it. I hate being in charge I hate even having to critique people playing My Own Music I don't cope well with attention#but at the same time I love doing it. I love the art form#I don't have the chops to make it as a performer. I knew this from the start but I formally gave up that idea after high school#when I realized that it was doing nothing for me but burning me out#I'm a better writer of music than I am a performer of it anyway#the only performance career I could envision for myself *possibly* would be in like. an early music ensemble or something#not that I really imagine that happening. but if I ever had the opportunity maybe I'd go for it#that's the only performance environment I really thrive in at all#and I guess in that sense it's not completely off the table. not as a main source of income but recently I've been getting gigs#for some of the folk music stuff with my friend because we're achieving a degree of notoriety in reenactment circles which is fun#idk. I know this isn't for me. I know it deep down#but I think there is always going to be a part of me that regrets it. a part of me that desperately wants to#mine#sorry I'm feeling normal about my choice of major clearly#composerposting

riverdale using joe iconis's archie's all-american confirmed....
#was absorbing this for a good minute before remembering both are based on the same source material techniqueally lol#sparked by joe not even knowing & having to ask via twitter; someone posted a twenty sec clip of it in the replies....#sung by characters/actors though i was ready to assume nondiegetetic abf Album recording for sure#supposing like the licensing/rights permission could've been granted w/o the composer knowing i guess? via the production company....#and that yeah they may have just; say; not changed any lyrics....#anyways a wild thing to learn of like huh??? and learning riverdale continues to air i vaguely thought it ended already or smthing lol#experiencing quite a bug where trying to click on the end of the entered text in the post creates a New Line#if there's some blank footer to the post that's why. pretend it's for dramatic emphasis w/e#joe iconis

#anyway more nuance on the whole situation is this. i am very single and this guy keeps being on my mind but i do not have any read on him#the last contact we had was me makin an ass of myself by going like hehe yeah this was nice everyone was nice ok yall have a nice evenin bye#while my heart was like visibly pounding out of my chest and u could probably see on my face i was internally thinking girl shut UP!!! LEAVE#so im like ok either hes weirded out by me so let me say thx AGAIN now in a composed way AND giving him peace of mind knowing i wont be back#unless?? i was not as awkward as i thought & get reassured i can return any time and then i could still b like thanks! and just Not go#i mean even then he might say it's fine even if he IS uncomfrtable w me just to 1. be nice and 2. make money w a participant locked in yknow#it does NOT help that the line btwn casual and professional was like NOT there btw its him just hosting the event as we all do our art idkkk#anyway if you THINK youve PROBABLY been a lil off is it better to 1. have a do-over and get closure or 2. fuck off forever hoping u never#like EVER run into the dude again and be awkward AGAIN bc well! u live in the same city and are both into art so?? there IS a possibility#I CAN SEE THE PROS AND CONS OF BOTH OPTIONS REALLY#yay for sending email: get a response get some clarity NOW. nay for sending email: girl u met him twice. please. leave the stranger alone <3#the one positive abt me feeling Dumb and Embarrassing is at least every time i think back i heave a Big Ole Sigh. feels nice tbh feels good#sad part is i rediscovered how much i love doing art and want to improve. would love to return it was so cheap.. pleek ill get over my crush
