  1. Agreed. In the context of that Herbie piece, I hear it as a suspension.
  2. That's why I prefer set theory when talking vertically.
  3. I've proudly never seen any of the B-movie adaptations.
  4. The passacaglia from Penderecki's 3rd symphony strikes me as suited to some of the more extrovert Lovecraft moments, evoking some plodding, nameless, supernal horror. Actually much from that period of music likely fits well. And there are even a few musical descriptions in his work, usually revolving around the thin whining of monotonous flutes and dancing formless cyclopean monstrosities. There's also a vivid reference to entrancing choral singing in one of the stories... I can't remember the name right now. It involves an opium overdose and subsequent vision.
  5. Sometimes I enjoy thinking about Lovecraft and music. It would be a very difficult job, I think, to score a faithfully well made Lovecraft film adaptation. It's tough to pin down, relative to any music I know (film or otherwise), what exactly the sonic nature of such an adaptation would be.

  7. Not really anymore. It's easy to avoid driving if you live in the right place. I absolutely loathe it. Too much chance for the inherent stupidity of people to kill you.
  8. Jeez the collective board testosterone is reaching critical levels again.
  9. Any man with a ponytail is either an excellent lover or completely incompetent.
  10. I was just going to say, that's the most English list of pet peeves ever haha.
  11. Don't bother. Listen to the score.
