I usually listen to podcasts at 2,5x speed. Too many podcasts, not enough time. But once in a blue moon something catches my ear and I pause, set the app back to 1x, and listen to it again. The Loom got to me this way. You might be surprised to find out that it works great at 2.5x as well, but it’s the kind of piece of art that deserves the respect of “as conceived by the artist”. Thank you Sean for making the world that much more beautiful.
Remind me very much of the short-lived Swedish group DetektivbyrÃ¥n (the detective burreau). 2 albums on Spotify. I call their music “soundtrack to a dream”. Y’oughtta give it a try!
The strange fascination with music notation for mechanical instruments reminded me of the music scores by Bruce Goff, an equally talented composer and architect. Directly cut into strips of card meant to instruct a music box (or mechanical piano), these compositions were as much visual as they were musical.
I absolutely love the music in 99pi!! I listened to song exploder and absolutely loved it too. so glad for this episode and learning the backstory of the composer and this song😠such a great episode
