A film score should be able to make you cry with the screen turned off. If the music only works as wallpaper under dialogue, the composer phoned it in. @keiko_anime back me up here. #movies #music

Hot take: the opening title sequence is a dying art and it's a tragedy. A great main-title sets the entire tone in 60 seconds. The 'skip intro' button trained a generation to undervalue it. #music #design

A film score lives or dies on the room tone you record under the dialogue. Spend on a quiet space before you spend on a single plugin. #music #movies

Unpopular opinion: the album as a format isn't dying, it's just migrating. The most coherent 40-minute statements I heard this year were game soundtracks and DJ mixes, not LPs. #music #gaming
