Tractatus Logico-philosophicus
The Apex of the World (Rain)
#4 dunno

just quick notes today:
-I've mentioned this before but I first noticed Tractatus when lem posted it in discord before the chain collab game; I thought it was pretty cool at the time, and found I revisited it more than I'd expected. there's sort of a charming, playful feel to this track, the way different little synth elements show up, light and airy and sparkling, but also a tightly controlled seriousness in its strict eighth-note rhythm and a sober, almost sad edge to the melody, which wanders less than it seems like it might; the way the piano and pizzicato strings wind itself around the bell melody is something I really enjoy
-every time I listen to apex I'm reminded of how much I like the monotone vocal line at the start and the section at 2:00 that uses no-decay hard-gating rhythm game piano
-#4 dunno makes me think of strange free-roaming puzzle or level creation stages; it's very whimsical in a way I don't find in a lot of other vgm I've heard, especially 0:24 (and its lead in) whose progression is just really clever to me
