It's Always Raining in Atlantis

nyykiOkay, I finished Stranger Things, and I can imagine how the ending didn't satisfy some people (there's a lot of stuff about it on YouTube), but the way season 5 went there wasn't a lot of wiggle room on how they could end it. Robin and Max both resonated with me throughout the show, though part of this might be because I read their tie-in books.
I'm listening to a fun one right now, The Fine Line Between Clever and Stupid, about the making of the two Spinal Tap mocumentaries. I enjoy hearing the creative people the book's about reading the text of it, and this one has all four of them.
Next will be a rewatch of Tron, Tron Legacy, and the first pass through Tron Aries. That'll still leave me close to 1400 CBS radio mysteries, so I'm not without stuff to listen to.
I've been thinking about a five part atmospheric suite I've worked on for about 38 years, and the first part is done (though I'm going to change the time signature of the restatement of the main theme) and I've got the next two parts sketched out well enough. The fourth part is going to be textural along the lines of Tangram era Tangerine dream, and I've known a long way back that the last part will resolve from minor key based to major, but nothing seemed to work for that. Then I got into a recent conversation about Koyaanisqatsi and I realized that part needs to be Minimalist so as the night transforms into dawn and then the sunrise I can evolve it into a major key or mode. This won't be on that project's first album, the one we call Nozzleography, instead happening on the second one as the centerpiece.
I think I've figured a few things out. I've accepted the situation those things show me, so it's time to move forward with that new information.
My latest Brainz entry is a fun one – I wonder how the others will react to it?
