I wrote the lyrics to the song in my first ever game trailer and got the composer and the singer to work together on bringing that to life and I had a blast. It took like 2 or 3 weeks. Mostly I was trying to figure out how to make a trailer. The only tedium I experienced was my inability to pay more

Jazz OTD: The David Murray album "Fast Life" isn't one of his most beloved, but it has a terrific quartet piece likely brought in by pianist John Hicks, who worked for years with its composer, flautist Elise Wood. Recorded October 16-17, 1991 with Ray Drummond (b) and Idris Muhammad (d). #jazzsky

Since my sight has deteriorated, I've been listening to much more radio, and this is always worth a listen.
I heard hundreds of life stories as a funeral celebrant. Many of them were fascinating, and so are these.

In honor of Ralph Vaughan Williams's birthday, I'm rereading the #AlastairReynolds short story, The Receivers, an alternate history tale in which WWI has dragged on for decades and RVW's life as a composer never happened. A favorite author writing about a favorite composer - can't do much better!

- Koji Kondo, age 55. The Legend of Zelda (1986) composer.
- Takashi Tezuka, age 55. The Legend of Zelda (1986) co-director.
QUOTE:
Kondo: This request was for sound direction for The Legend of Zelda. It bears a seal with Tezuka-san's name, and the date is Sep. 27.
Tezuka: But if you read it, it's pretty rough. For cave music, it just says “short BGM.”
Q: “Life Fountains” must mean the Fairy Fountains.
Tezuka: Yes.
Q: It just says, “fanfare, sparkly.” [laughs] Kondo-san, when you received this request, I suppose you thought, “What kind of music am I supposed to make?!”
Kondo: Yeah. [laughs]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2e7f2uvcguv4d5qxqnyjmk32/bafkreigzw5wdpalgew7gqhm5a7mopyoqcnrn67lqytltvdbb537oiykrt4)
