me and hellbooks are doing a walrus together!
submit songs in these categories
i will listen to them and hellbooks will too
we give them scores
probably will be doing listening events on discord like schadd (we havent talked about this yet)
that's how this works!
Spoiler: how/what do i submit?
submit music! try not to make it super long. keep it anonymous so we can be surprised. i don't know what hellbooks will do, but i will be trying to guess who'se was what, and if im right, you lose .05 points
youtube links are preferred so that we dont remember who submitted what. indicate which category each submission belongs to like on a list. you don't have to submit it all at once, and can switch it up until deadline.
send to me and/or her via pm or discord or whatever.
just be careful about how discord likes to preview links
and these are the categorizations;
Spoiler: avatars
TRIS: this is my cat lena. she's yawning in this picture, but i want you to forget that. pretend that she's yowling. then go find music with that in mind.
HELLBY: i will instead be evaluating this cat based on this picture of a fox that was given to me at one point. the fox is best friends with lena
final note by TRISH: i sign onto all of the things that HELLBY: added.

i ,

um, why am i awake right now!!
i like music.
i like music with interesting cool sounds.
many electronic sounds are cool
the imperfections of irl instruments are also cool
breathing is really cool!!!!
i like it when those sounds interact in cool or subtle ways .
i famously like music that takes a while to get going/ but i also can like music that doesn;t.
i often like repetition with subtle variations.
i like it when a singer feels like theyr feeling something
the music i like doesnt have to be all complicated or whatever. it can be simple too. especialy if the last line is true or if its fun
i like dissonance. (or not dissonance)
i like to get lost in the music; so that my mind doesnt have to go in circles like it often does.
i like music by lesbians

Decided that if I've listened to an album by a band before I'll have to dock it at least 0.1 points even if I don't know/remember a lot about them or their situation. The title is like a United States bootleg version of Cocteau Twins titles. Also I do really like this mashup of sounds, like the percussion has a strong "indoors" feeling of like closely packed slappin' and tappin' sounds while the guitar and whistling and low train whistle definitely is working to create a tapestry of the outdoor Americana. Beyond the acoustics the structure of the song start to finish has a strong adventurousness for the sake of adventure that I must rate highly, but I must also acknowledge the strong gravitational pull of the groove that prevents it from having that full wandering feel.
I added this song to one of my favorite playlists which is named after a baths lyric ("you and I invent the ballroom")
ooh. i love all these instruments bumping along coming in and doing their thing. i'm not sure how to put this song into words. it has a unique mood. i guess it's like a one-person parade strolling down a tunnel?

This song would have smashed the Vivid Place catfit in my books (hell's books), it feels like walking through a tunnel that is lit by these bright blue and purple crystals. I thought very hard about how wide and expansive such a tunnel would be to facilitate wandering and I decided that even just the act of looking around and experiencing all the crystals is very wanderous (and wondrous!) in an interesting way.
amazing. i feel this song in my soul. it's so comforting and relaxing. everytime i listen to it, i feel like closing my eyes and drifting off into a trance. i want to let this wave of sound wash over me and carry me off into wherever it's going. it's got a lot of cool texture. i love this so much that i adjusted my conception of the wandering category to fit it. this was initially more floaty than wandery to me, but now i accept it as fully wandering but in a very drifty way. it's so good. thank you so much for this music.
9.5 + 2 = 11.5

10.9 (8.9 + 2 for 1st place)
The bass kick made me go like CLOSER??? by THE NINE INCH NAILS??? I like the horrid creaking. This title is like a Cocteau Twins title. The pan out to evil acoustic literally made me gasp. I have a feeling this is going to be the first case in point about the anticipated phenomenon of MUSHSHAGANA being a crucial beloved submitter of mines. [Note to self: take out that last sentence if this is not MUSHSHAGANA] [Note to self: don't actually do this]. Sorry i was too busy liking the song to talk to the catfit let me do that... umm... the lyrics give me a strong sense of being lost, both of body and of mind, which i found to be really affecting, and it felt like the song was struggling to find itself (in a good way!)
The bonus points are for a playlist of songs that have a certain intensity (can also be like Pop Intensity) with a lot of room for a specific 2AM brand of unfocused thinking about emotions. it is right before the song gnaw by Rat
this song doesn't give me much wandering feeling. and, because i'm coming at this from a wandering mindset, i'm having difficulty evaluating it in other ways. it sits on a different level that i am not accessing right now. it seems interesting, but i coming at it from the wrong angle.

I was kind of hoping that we would see more instruments join the fray like side characters joining the hero on her winding path (see: buried giant from tris restless song) but even without that the way that the song takes slow steps upwards and then fluttery steps downwards is really evocative of a pleasant directionlessness. Also this guy's name rules
the bassoon wanders. i like it. it sounds like it's having a lot of fun! i'd like to go join it! it goes through a bunch of cool moods. if i listen to this enough, i might become fluent in this bassoon language.

Similarly to Crystal Sword this kind of has a journeyman's song aesthetic to it. it reminds me of horses and i like horses. it makes me want to like run around. i listened to it a lot while walking this week. that combined with a strong new wave sensibility. It's really quite incredibly nice and unknowably compelling. I feel compelled to give an additional 0.3 points of unfamiliarity due to the total loss as to what this would be and who it would come from and when it was made. like literally what is this
yes, this wanders. we're skipping down the road and stuff. it's cool. i think it needs a little more something, but it's fine.

I think this is an affecting and sentimental song about awareness. I like the way that the guitar kind of pushes against and past the strict timing of the synth pulses, therein is what I see as the most catfitting aspect of the song. as for my high enjoyment of this song... honestly it like hugely grew on me by the third or fourth listen. i like his throaty voice and i like whenever it resolves and pushes past the resolution without looking back.
clickity clack. i love it when those interject. i think someone's brain is wandering or something. we're clearly drifting off somewhere. i like the bloup bloups that plod along the whole time. and there's some wandering piano in here too. i like how quiet it is. there's a lot of little things scurrying around.

I like the soft blyearts at the bottom of the sound spectrum of this song and the fake musescore-ass vocals in the patch. Like a lot actually. This song to me initially feels like you're gearing up to fight an epic guy although maybe like the whole of the OST sounds like that I wouldn't know. I gave you 0.2 unfamiliarity point and 0.1 additional apology point for having never played runescape. I think by the end of it that feeling wears off to leave a catfitting sense of rumination
this is excellent at conveying a feeling of venturing out with anticipation. it has great build up. there's some cool interplay with different lines of instruments.
there was something about this that sounded so familiar even though i haven't played runescape, but then i realized what it was. i used to play arcanists which i must have had similar music. so, as a bonus, i give you an orb.

I was loving this song and the guy's voice was like a huge blast of cold water (that I eventually became acclimated to). It occurs to me that this song is kind of about trying to become a new person and kind of finding "home" in a new place? Perhaps? At least those are my interpretations that lend themselves to the cat quite well.
last minute rating here. OOPS. yeah, i guess this wanders and stuff. it gets an additional tenth of a point for wandering out of my awareness somehow.

I think that there is definitely a clear catfit aspect (putting pins in maps, a compass breaking and leaving one lost in the midst) but I think there is also an aspect of chasing the other person ("I can't get you out of my mind... I swear that I'll never try"), the promise of the ending of the search, and even the title which evokes a specific direction. So in a sense I think the wandering aspect is kind of deconstructed at the end of the narrative. I thought about trying to interpret it as a sad song where they're trying to hope for an impossible thing but i think that just didn't fit with the tone of it
this is nice, and definitely drifts around all wander-like. but, it doesn't connect to me that well. there's some good pieces to this. i like the guitar. but, i think something about the vocals is pushing me away. i can appreciate the song, but it doesn't connect to me. sorry

Through ways and means I have come to be very familiar with this band and their symphonic rock style situation. I think the chorus being in a different key is a beloved trait of music for me and also hugely contributes to the catfit here. I think there is a great way that the title nudges an interpretation of trying to search for something that isn't there which is definitely one potential aspect of wanderance
i like this! but, it only has small wanderingness to it. it does kind of sound like we're setting out on some journey. i like the way the vocals play off of each other in call and response bits and the way it twists around towards the end. the whole thing has a really fun energy. actually, i think i do feel the wandering more now. bumping this up from what it was going to be.

I was tempted to give you 0.1 point for submitting a korean song but I think that will just naturally manifest itself in the "like" category. i struggled for a long time on how lenient to be with the unfamiliarity here—in particular this guy is like on my gay list of favorite music which schadd highlighted as a thing that would face significant penalty, but it's not immediately obvious that that guy is this guy. I decided on what I hope is a reasonable lenience. and also anyway like great choice.
Let me offer some of my best attempt at an apt translation of some particularly catfitting lines:
- 서투른 바람이 엎은 곳 -> "where the unfamiliar wind stirs"
- 새파란 안개가 머문 곳, 맨 발로는 갈 수 없는 땅 -> "the land where the deep blue mist rests can't be reached on foot"
- 마음을 깊이 묻어 놓고서, 빛을 바라볼 수 있을까 -> "my heart is buried deeply, so can I hope to see bright light"
all in all this song is tremendously like this book called the buried giant that i just read and kind of had like a key piece in my recent thinking about wandering so I have no choice but award this song a GRAND SLAM
and here's a bonus thing;

i think maybe an oversight on the first round of listenings that i had was that i was just strongly envisioning the yowling to have divine feminine energy. but i think this song with vibrato-heavy lines like "i can sell you... lo-o-o-ove..." singlehandedly helped me to recontextualize what sort of things i saw as catfitting for the next go of it, so it's very possible that many of you owe some catfit points to this song!
compressed-style drums are a known beloved musical aspect and catfitting aspect of mine and you can see that it corresponds with cat example come in by weatherday
. the last minute of it is sheer excellence and sheer catfittery.

lots of fascinating lyrics! the ending section clinches the fittage for this cat. there's some kind of frantic desire in this. the vibrato when he's trying to sell love and the morning sun is good. i want to go look up a live performance of this.

headcanoning you as a submitter who knew that this is a song/artist pairing that i like a lot but found the pull towards the cat so compelling that you had to submit it anyway. which i find to be an excellent decision, which is reflected in the amount of points i gave you.
similarly to the lost one's weeping vocaloid "AAAA", the opening howl is literally the most catfitting sound that could ever even be theorycrafted. thinking that there is some sort of divide between this song's strong finality and closure vibes and how i've been envisioning the emotion of the yowling animal. which is kind of the only thing preventing you from grandslamming. but i could be biased by the narrative of my witch playlist

ACTUAL USER: GOOOD -0.1
MEDAL FOR BEST TRACK NAME - yes which kind of just belies the goodness of the lyrics overall
HONORABLE MENTION MEDAL FOR BEST ARTIST NAME - certainly the most "cat" fitting artist name
9.1 (7.6 + 1.5 shared first place points

i am aware of it wasn't god who made honky tonk angels courtesy of schadd. i'm pleased at the reintroduction of this song because i like it more than the last time i listened to it (and i already liked it then). maybe this is schadd and that was his intention -- in fact, i thought about doing that to him in his walrus. (editor's note: i was correct)
i think the pain-expressing lyrics and oldie-style historically specific wan vocal production are frankly excellent catfitters here. in addition, if last cat's Big Winning Instrument was snare drums electric organ, then surely this cat's must be the fiddle. well done on that immunity idol find.

unfortunately the songs that are faithfully vocaloid are rather difficult, to be enjoyed, by me. for the most part. i found this to be a good listen for at least a couple goes though. i want to say that the song earns a good chunk of the catfit points on virtue of the "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" happening in the beginning although the singing style is generally somewhat foxfitting as a whole (it just feels like fairly vulpine to me)
trish
8.9 - .1 + 1 = 9.8
yeah, it's a scream! i like the background bit that keeps punching forward and then retreating. really, all the layers of sound doing their thing driving the song forward. the vocaloid stuff seems like it's pretty clear and well done as well.

the crooning singing is definitely a workhorse element of catfit but where it went totally above and beyond is that moment when angel olsen comes in and instantly kind of clips the vocals with her high note. the way that her voice maintains that character is really good, i genuinely love it here

intriguing. the first taste of the vocals really threw me for a loop. the electric piano jingles starting at 1:50 are really appealing. i think that the vocals have this mystical inhuman energy that is surely a bit catfitting. going to give this 0.1 unfamiliarity points for this feeling of not knowing where the song was going to go to almost a stressful extent

sorry i like listened to this song. i'm disinclined to penalize you more because it was probably right around the walrus submission period. however, i'm disinclined to penalize you less because i'm a known tricot liker/listener.
i think there are little vocal production elements that are highly catfitting. i like the trippy delay effect for catfittance as well.

i like the piano quoting some wintery tunes and then veering rapidly into dissonance town and then just as suddenly back into calm. a single melodic line fluttering back and forth like the first snowflake of the season blowing back in forth by the wind. i like tori amos. this is a really patient song and it asks the same of me -- i think it took about the third listen until i was really appreciating it.

i like the piano as a solid supporting character here but i think it doesn't go too much beyond solid. i do like the symphonic character that it lends itself to. i like this band. i think if you submitted the song louder by them i would give you like a ridiculously high catfit like maybe even 2.6 and also a fairly high unfamiliarity penalty like maybe even -0.7. unfortunately that's all hypothetics
trish 7.9 is this sirius again? -.1 = 7.8
i liked the other one better, but also there were just so many good submissions in this, and this one was only decent.

kind of heartbreakingly i find myself weighed down by comparisons that i subconsciously make to the piano playing of the puzzle & dragons ost, behind which the piano in this song is much more obviously synthesized. that isn't to say it's bad in the slightest and i love the way i find it melodically interacting with the rest of the musical ideas in the soundtrack (you benefit from me having played this game here)
in addition you also dodge the additional unfamiliarity point because i think this seems to be from a route i haven't played (yet?)
trish 9.2 chevre (this is caled)
i'm not actually sure why im giving this as many points as i am.

8.4 + 0.5 = 8.9
this is a 0 unfamiliarity with distinction: in particular i've played the game but just like Dont Listen To The Music Ever and am also rather broadly unfamiliar with anything past the foundations of the game. anyway the way it sort of drips in and then the piano suddenly scampers and it's like the cautious adventurousness of a little creature suddenly peeking into the light. it feels like being in a cozy underground safety place that then opens into this little underground city where everything is lit by candles and there's not snow on the ground but more like cave dust. this is fantastic. i would say most of my enjoyment is literally from the introductory section which i would place as just a totally beloved piece of music for me now.
catfit here owes a lot for the way the sound is placed under like the damper pedal -- i feel like i've never thought so deeply about the evocative potential for that sound and i think it's just like so huge. i'm literally emotional to this.
trish 7.0 caled (no it's chevre which would have been my first guess if i hadnt guessed elsewhere)
this is really good but i know it way too much im sorry ;(

me 0 seconds in: oh great it's these guys again. me 3 seconds in: oh no this is like insanely good. me 13 seconds in: oh god that voice is a blast of cold air. a horse named cold air. anyway with that rollercoaster behind us, i think the severe panned frantic electric (in energy not in material) piano sounds should go without saying to be extraordinarily catfittously interesting. the piano literally dominates my attention here to the song's great benefit. even though i've listened to like four of their albums this is not really like anything i remember from them so i'll limit to -0.1 and even consider 0
trish 8.5 davsto -.1 = 8.4
i like it! it's a bit long. i like how the piano dinks around.

it feels like we're kind of eavesdropping on some enemy's normal life. like we're overhearing the person you're about to fight playing the piano and having fun because they don't know you're here yet. there's this idea where a lot of video games have electronic/synth based/clearly artificial instruments in their soundtracks (maybe sort of an acknowledgement that it's all a crafted experience) while my perceived authenticity of the piano sound here goes so far as to shatter that milieu and place me in a location as real as it is vivid. i really like this hesitant but resolute vibe here. i really like when the hands move into contrary moving chords and it feels like it adds conflict and tension to the narrative. as you can see by the length of this review this song was kind of hugely thought generating for me and that ended up factoring into the liking of it
trish 8.4 this has to be isis -.1 = 8.3
its cool; veers a little bit into territory of my brain being annoyed with it but not fully

i love the old tinny piano vibe where you can really hear the sound of the hammers hitting the strings. catfittous for sure. it feels like the song is kind of rolling around and gathering slow shuddering momentum and then it just sort of pushes it out in one long but forceful breath. really exciting to experience every new instrumental presence which is almost counter catfitting because it kind of overwhelms my brain
trish 9.1 maybe this is hellbooks (this is shaft.ed)
this is just really cool and fun

the piano does a really good jobb of opening up this vast space through which the evil noise bounces through like a tumbleweed in a long-since-ruined city.
but then we kind of zoomed in this seemingly abandoned location and in the cracks there's a small but thriving post-apocalyptic cyberpunk backdrop where all this dark machinous action is happening. i think the piano is especially interesting and memorable even though it takes a backseat for the rest of the song because of the huge contrast that it sets up. this seems like an album i'd really like. that's a really excellent and well executed take on the cat that i want to give a lot of points to!
playlist points first for making me add it to a playlist but for also making me want to start a new playlist with that as the centerpiece. (this is a task to revisit)
trish 8.9 MUSHSHSH -.1
cool!!! and wow, this is only getting 6th????? i love the meloncholy of this piano. really cool combos of sounds. like the ones that sound like something phasing in and out of reality.

MEDAL FOR GRAND SLAM: this is a grand slam.
9.1 + 2.0 = 11.1
i've listened to dan deacon before but this one's new despite being on an album that was vaguely on my radar around when it came out. this song is fantastic. the piano both feels like challenging this massive verticality which makes me visualize a mountain, like it's piercing upwards. i think the enormous visual and narrative power of the piano here demands a grand slam. especially the building section "right here is right now (?)" feels so different when it's the piano bouncing around in the beginning vs this really tight vibrating building line where the song builds. when it starts buzzing and getting louder i literally get chills up my spine.
then those electric string and bleeding brass noises make it feel like we've breached the peak and can see for miles. this is absolutely gorgeous. i loved this submission. this was literally amazing. i loved this.
trish 8.0 shaft.ed (this is cheetory6)
kinda sounds like the davsto submission from wandering lol. something isn't clicking here but its good.

the closely and flatly mixed piano (it sounds very "upright") provides a tight, thudding lifeline to grab onto to while you swing through this dense foliage of sound. it also provides a lot of melodic forward momentum and it works in perfect tandem with the bass line. it's phenomenal. uh this is really good btw. this definitely hits the awestruck feeling of witnessing a really great and creative? interpretation of the cat. i would say it's just like a better version of my attempt at scrounging up an interesting take on it. i was kind of taken aback by the way it ends (sorry that just soudns like i'm dissing TWIE the scummer) but it's still all really really good
i added this to a playlist for staying awake
trish 2nd (tie) 9.4 pj -.1 +1.3 = 10.6

8.5 + 1.4 = 9.9
i think the darkly instrumented vibe is so powerful that i was shocked when the singer came in, like the instrumental intro already felt to me like 100 percent of the components to a song. this is phenomenal. this has a really sleek bite to it. i mean all of the instruments are openly brilliant and thickly sentimental. the drums are so pleasantly and tightly mixed. the brass continues to shock me multiple listens in. this is an URGENT listen. absolutely brilliant submission.
i'm going to give you a respectably high but not groundbreakingly high catfit here -- i think like it provides a strong and consistent foundation for which other instruments arrange themselves around very evocatively.
trish 1st 9.6 schadd -.1 +2 = 11.5
