In Love With The Sound

aside from Daniel Pemberton being the absolute madman with the work he done, there's something so wonderful about the stark contrast between earth/flashback scenes and the Rocky ones.

All of Grace flashbacks have either a bittersweet, nostalgic sound, with added human choir, or a more percussion-based one for when he's studying the Astrophage. There's a specific leitmotif associated to humanity, although is exclusively in its minor version EXCEPT in the "goodbye my friend" track.

The moment we actually have a sense of wonder is when Grace sees with the scope the Blip-A in the "Petrova Line" track.

"Centrifuge" is the first "space-related- track that actually gives you a sense of whimsy and joy and wonder, probably because it's first of all, cool as hell, but also a sense of control for Grace in his new environment.

THEN in "The Message" we can hear Rocky different leitmotifs even before we met him. From then on, the movie OST becomes so, so much more musical, which makes sense, Eridians are all about Harmonies!

And I don't know I just think it's neat seeing so much differences between how Grace memories of Earth sounds compared to the silly happy sounds full of hope we hear in the present with Rocky

You guys remember that one inflatable latex ball trap in the Incredibles? Yeah me too

"there's nothing wrong with being effeminate." of course. and do you feel happy with how you look?

"i worry people would feel unsafe around me." do you feel safe around you?

"it would be hard for other people to adjust." and you think it'd be easier to suffer quietly?

"he/they is fine. i really prefer he/him, but i have to make it easier on other people." so you want to let other people decide your gender? again?

"if i'm going to be a man, i owe it to other people to be as soft, friendly, and nonthreatening as possible."
