(Yo. This is the thing.)
(………………………………It’s the Nanoka Leitmotif. It’s her theme song. It’s for solo piano because I don’t know how to compose for koto IRL… And it’s her theme song because I said so. If you want to be technical, it’s the Era Family theme song, so the remaining living heir to the song would be…not Nanoka…but.)
(Anyway, the damn thing’s been alive for nearly as long as Nanoka herself. I think it came into being around the time I was working on her app for Doubt? Possibly even earlier? Either way, it was technically written for pre-Doubt Nanoka, but it's not exactly the same as it was when it was first written, since it's been sitting here fermenting all these weeks while I've been waiting for my computer to finally be capable of actually opening Pro Tools for longer than a few minutes at a time…so it stands more or less independent of timeline...)
(My voice claim for Nanoka Era is this song. My everything claim for Nanoka Era is this song. …Explaining why is kind of hard, though… (℃_゜) The song is hers because it’s mostly composed of variations on a theme and that theme is hers, and the theme is hers because it’s circular and kind of sanctimonious and self-assured to my ears, and thatone section is this particular familial idiosyncrasy, and that part is this thing, and……..)
(Anyway. Yeah. That's the thing. NOW the Nanoka Era Experience can end.)
(…The album art, by the way, is from a commission I got a while ago, done by Tumblr user piccasa! Click for the full image! CHECK IT.)
