#Erik Satie - Gnossienne No.1

[anokha-swad]

“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams

Erik Satie - Gnossienne No.1 (Extended)

[ondasyletras]

Monolink - Erik Satie: Gnossienne No. 1 (Monolink Nostalgia Remix)

[navoiigamer]

Here's a fun quest: Go to any youtube video on Satie's Gnossienne No.1. Go to the comments. You will see that no one knows what feelings it gives.

Nostalgia. I am pretty sure it's nostalgia it invokes

[ask-sebastian]

I just want to read a book next to a rainy window or under a tree with falling leaves

I feel like I'm in a dramatic, noir romance

It's all so sooofftt

Rainy day soundtracks! I love them.

THEY EDIT FINE THINGS WELL: OFMD KISS AND KNIVES SCENES (S1 E9 & S2 E3) COMPARISON

Marveling at the OFMD editors who did so much more than just reuse Schumann’s Kinderszenen, Op. 15: VII. And Erik Satie’s Gnossiennes No. 5 from the season 1, episode 9 kiss scene in the season 2, episode 3 knife pulling scene.

Unedited audio from both episodes plays simultaneously in this comparison video. Take a look and a listen at what happens, with Gnossiennes No. 5 from 0:15 to 0:52. The music is playing twice, but you only hear it once because it matches perfectly. The way the verbalizations and dialogue work together are the kill-me-now gut punch taste-of-orange frosting on the best cake ever.

It's beautiful.

[estcaligo]

Made this list while I was in the mood

Classical music pieces that I associate with twst characters

* these pieces are available to listen to on youtube. Perhaps I will make a video with them one day. But I doubt it. * I apologize for any mistakes, it was a lot of information to digest * updated because I forgot to add Presto for Malleus, sorry!

Malleus - Vivaldi - The Four Seasons - "Summer" - 1 Allegro Non Molto and 3 Presto (I mean of course these ones. Add evil overblot laugh here too.) ok also Schubert - Erlkönig (The Elf King), D. 328

Sebek - Prokofiev - Romeo and Juliet, Suite No. 2, The Montagues and Capulets "Dance of the Knights" (it's just him. period.) or Rachmaninov - Musical Moment No.4 in E minor or Rachmaninov - Prelude in C Sharp Minor (Rachmaninov for Sebek in general lol)

Silver - Grieg - Peer Gynt, Suite no. 1 "Morning mood" or Debussy - Clair de lune (from "Suite bergamasque") (Yes, basic, but it fits so so much so)

Lilia - Chopin - Fantaisie impromptu in C-Sharp minor, Op. 66 (first notes - Lilia's evil grin, then whimsical nature and the whirl of memories of countries he has been to. When it goes hard, it's cooking, some violence, and then when it gets gentle, it's when he remembers Silver's childhood. Then he softens in general but also reminds us about his playful nature and strong character.)

Idia - Vivaldi - The Four Seasons - "Winter" - 1 Allegro Non Molto (resembles how Idia speaks when he's getting confident and how his character, in general, opens up. And kinda gives me his genius vibes)

Ortho - Graun - Gigue in B-Flat minor (sounds like super-fast calculation is going on. But also, some notes sound like random signals and/or signs of creativity/sudden thoughts in AI) also Chopin - Etude Op. 10 No. 5 (Black Keys)

*Erik Satie for Octa in general. Gives me mysterious underwater vibes*

Azul - Satie - Gnossienne No. 1 and Gymnopedie no.1 also kinda Chopin - Nocturne Op. 9 No. 1 (pondering, deep in thought, underwater, calculating, but also melancholic…)

Jade - Satie - Gnossienne No.3 (such big Jade vibes)

Floyd - Liszt - Mephisto Waltz No. 1 (hehe)

Leona - Haydn - Symphony No. 49 in F minor ' La Passione ' (it's long, but it's worth listening. I just imagine Leona's character and lore in general here)

Jack - Händel - Suite no. 11 in D minor. Sarabande (not really sure about this one. But it gives me 'strength and determination and values' vibes today)

Ruggie - Mozart - Symphony No. 40 in G minor, IV. Allegro assai (reminds me how he can adapt and be different if needed. Also, it sounds quite boisterous, like Ruggie is going fast, fast, fast and earning a lot, lot, lot!)

Kalim - Mozart - The Marriage of Figaro, K. 492: Overture (specifically wanting to throwa feast)

Jamil - Chopin - Waltz in E minor, Op. Posth. (he's so skillful and makes it look like he's not even trying, but he's super hardworking. Also, some parts sound like his occasional emotional outbursts) also - Chopin - Prelude in E Minor (I can't explain it, but it's just Jamil for me. I feel so sorry for him - he's such a cool and talented (and handsome) guy, and such destiny mgd. Or maybe I'm just in a melancholic mood today)

Vil - Vivaldi - The Four Seasons - “Spring” - 1 Allegro (won't be original meh. like there're so many classical pieces that fit Vil but I don't really wanna bother here so)

Rook - Mozart - Le Nozze di Figaro: "Non più andrai, farfallone amoroso" (instrumental) (ookay it was hard with Rook because I think a lot fits him but I'll stop with this one or I'll never finish this list)

Epel - Litvinovsky - Pelléas and Mélisande: III. Galliard. Navire dans la tempête (Galliard. Ship in a storm) (unrelated but my life is divided into before seeing Epel in Book 7 dreams and after)

Riddle - Beethoven - Symphony No. 5 in C Minor, Op. 67 I. Allegro con brio (duh. basic but c'mon. it suits him)

Ace - Litvinovsky - Suite for Strings "Le Grand Cahier": IV. Nos Etudes (yes that's how I feel Ace)

Deuce - Tchaikovsky - The Nutcracker Suite, Op. 71a: March of the Toy Soldiers (Deuce the honour student edition)

Cater - Beethoven : Sonatina in F Major plus "a glimpse of a depressed real Cater" one - Chopin - Mazurka in A minor, Op.17, No.4

Trey - Beethoven - Sonata No. 8 in C Minor Pathetique, Op. 13 (Adagio cantabile) (I tried to find someting "normal" meh so went with this today)

Special mentions

Rollo - Mozart - Requiem, 3 Dies Irae Bach - Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, BWV 565 Orff - Carmina Burana: Fortuna imperatrix mundi. O fortuna (super super obvious but c'mon it's basically canon)

Baul - Wagner - Ride of the Valkyries (ya Baul has big Wagner vibes for me)

Grim - Edvard Grieg – In the Hall of the Mountain King (the escalation lol)

== Love Notes ==

Hey lovelies. I know this recap is late-- I am having a habit of falling asleep a the end of the day now, new meds may be contributing to it, so please accept this Love Note as a start to the new day!

Everybody is trying very hard to keep each other afloat right now. We're all staying active in one way or another, whether that's sending lovely letters, or engaging in fandom fun and discourse. Sometimes it's not always fun though. We all get frustrated, we all repeat ourselves, and we all struggle with those things. Sometimes we say things we don't mean, or we say things that people misconstrue, and miscommunication can be rampant.

Just remember that we all make mistakes, and we're all human.

Take a step back.

Take a moment to breathe, go for a walk, go for food, or water, or go scream into the void.

We're all crew, and we do all care about each other even if we don't necessarily agree on things the fandom. We all have our own lives going on and outside factors that make the day to day harder, and we all need to give ourselves some grace for that too. Sometimes emotions get high and taking a step back can help, I know I've needed it lately. @areyoudoingthis reminded me of this yesterday and it really helped me feel more grounded. My brain gets overstimulated sometimes, and it's hard to break away from the thing that's overstimulating it, it's like it wants to keep going and deal with whatever is bothering it.

Just a gentle reminder that you are allowed to detach for a while. You're allowed to take a break. You're allowed to have your opinions, and your concerns, and your frustrations. You are human, and we are all so very flawed, but that's what makes us beautiful. Try not to beat yourselves up for being human.

Take a break, lean on a friend, verbally vomit frustrations into the voice or into a Safe Space Ship. Do what you need to do to get you through the day ok? We all want that. We all want YOU to be okay. If you step away, we'll be here when you get back because we love you crew. Don't forget that, even when tensions are high, we care about what happens to you, and we love you. You deserve grace too.

@smilingcrittersthingig

I was listening to Erik Satie's Gnossienne No.1 and I just had to make this drawing of Reborn!DogDay.

I remember when I first heard this on the Poirot movie "Five Little Pigs", and it always brought a feeling of haunting and depression, which I thought was perfect for Reborn!DogDay's situation.

🎸⭐️ EMA Band AU || music taste headcanons (pt. 3):

pt.1 pt.2

🗝️🥁 | Eren:

Eren just really likes loud shit in his ears. The louder the better. He mostly likes songs that are fun and energizing. He’s not super huge on lyrics, more just vibes. Eren mainly listens to metal but delves into rock, shoegaze, and slower tunes when he’s feeling more mellow or… emotional.

Top 3 artists:

Radiohead

Slipknot, maybe Korn

System Of A Down

honorable mentions: Pierce The Veil, Bring Me The Horizon, Deftones, Loathe, Linkin Park?

Songs he likes:

Chop Suey! - SOAD

Karma Police - Radiohead

Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) - Deftones

Duality - Slipknot

Freak On a Leash - Korn

Good God - Korn

Falling Away from Me - Korn

Jaded - Spiritbox

I Don’t Care If You’re Contagious - PTV

Sonne - Rammstein

🧣🎸 | Mikasa:

Mikasa enjoys fun and melodic music— songs she can sing and maybe even dance along to. She is really inspired by female vocalists in rock and metal. I imagine she likes indie pop/rock a lot too, and maybe even shoegaze when she needs some background noise.

Top 3 artists:

Paramore

Evanescence

BABYMETAL

honorable mentions: Poppy, Ado, bôa, Mitski, Arctic Monkeys, Glare

Songs she likes:

Spit - Poppy

Twilight - bôa

Everybody’s Fool - Evanescence

Ignorance - Paramore

Decode - Paramore

Thick Skull - Paramore

Distortion - BABYMETAL

Monochrome - BABYMETAL

Townie - Mitski

Brand New City -Mitski

🐚🎹 | Armin:

Because he is classically trained, Armin holds great admiration for instrumentalists and probably listens to a lot of jazz, orchestral, and classical music. I think he branches out as Mikasa and Eren influence him, and discovers other genres that appeal to him too—namely progressive metal. He’s drawn to music with experimental, impressive, or just pleasant instrumentals. Armin also probably focuses on lyrics a lot and can’t listen to a song if the words aren’t thought out or intentional in meaning.

Top 3 artists:

Laufey, or probably Mitski

The Contortionist, maybe Ok Goodnight

Joe Hisaishi

honorable mentions: Grouper, Ichiko Aoba, AURORA, Toshifumi Hinata, Patrick Watson, Polyphia?

Songs he likes:

Star - Mitski

Stjernestøv - AURORA

Merry-Go-Round of Life - Joe Hisaishi

HANA-BI - Joe Hisaishi

Let You Break My Heart Again - Laufey

Je te laisserai des mots - Patrick Watson

Eleanor Rigby - Cody Fry

Trios Gnossiennes: Gnossienne No. 1 - Erik Satie

Reimagined - The Contortionist

Day & Night - Ok Goodnight

[sgiandubh]

La mulți ani, țara mea!

If you don't understand a single word of the above, well - that's absolutely normal. It may even have turned out problematic on your screens, with all the strange diacritical signs: I can safely assure you they all make perfect sense, yet Romanian is a notoriously difficult language to master. That too makes perfect sense, when you take a look at our troubled (crumpled, almost) history and being a native speaker is one of my greatest secret prides. As I suppose it's one of the greatest secret prides of at least three other people of this shipper community - all of them wonderful, witty and warm persons, one would be simply glad to share a coffee and a good chat with.

I have thought almost all day long about the sounds that would be able to get you at least a glimpse of that elusive thing people (perhaps pompously) call 'the Romanian soul'. And I can already hear the other three betting it would be either 'something Enescu' or Maria Tănase (because you know, Pink Martini and all that 😉).

Don't bet on those, you'll lose. It's going to be Erik Satie's Gnossienne numéro 1 (Lent), as interpreted by Fazil Say, the only pianist able to translate its strange grace:

This, my friends, is a typical Romanian theme, written by a French composer with a Scottish mother, who lived obscurely (and almost destitutely) in Paris somewhere between the last quarter of the 19th and the first half of the 20th centuries. Erik Satie would have been perfectly unable to place Romania on a map and it is fair to presume he barely registered its existence at all. I suppose the why and the how of all this have to do with the mysteries of inspiration and of course, with what we conventionally call 'genius'.

This Gnossienne will always get me back to a (very early) morning in June, having coffee somewhere on Bucharest's Calea Victoriei. For very personal reasons.

But this is not the only strange link between Scotland and us. The other one I could immediately think of is going to be the fabric of one of my next posts. And sorry for the delay: I just wanted to give as much visibility as possible to @bat-cat-reader's ordeal.

So, happy birthday to us, doamnelor, and to our formidable, annoying, terrible and wonderful (yes, all of this rolled into one) country, too! Which is exactly what I wrote in that mysterious title, by the way.

Sun, Jan 14 - Re-reading The Secret History

I take the pictures that are on my blog myself. In case you're interested in this post, I also post/reblog content including travel/cultural pictures, books, book recommendations, analysis, quotes, anything related to movies, series, and girl blog entries.

STORIES TELLING: HOW RECURRING MUSIC IN OFMD CAUSES MENTAL DEVASTATION IN THE VERY BEST WAY

How the Blackbeard theme, Gnossienne No. 5, and Voi Che Sapepte reveal, reinforce and recontextualize the narrative. An in-depth analysis of key scenes throughout seasons 1 and 2.

Much gratitude to pocket friends who were so encouraging and provided valuable feedback while I worked on this.

Meta by these authors (links, below the cut) influenced this video:

@asneakyfox, @asongaboutpirates, @bakasara, @doyoueverstopandthink, @chaotic-neutral-knitter, @forpiratereasons @fresne999 @gaypiratepropaganda, @jaskierx, @medievill, @mxmollusca, @piratecaptainscaptainpirates @veeagainsttheday, @57flagsofdeath

Gnossienne No. 5 doyoueverstopandthink - i will literally never get over about how fantastic the transition from robert schumann's "träumerei" to erik satie's "gnossiennes: no. 5" is

Voi Che Sapete asongaboutpirates - Another little detail about OFMD that makes me go feral

Transformation in OFMD fresne999 - Half way through the journey of our analyses mxmollusca - The transformation from object to subject, from something that has things done to it versus someone with agency.

Ed's & Izzy's Relationship asneakyfox - you have to understand i have always felt the key thing that makes blackhands interesting...

chaotic-neutral-knitter - Izzy telling Stede "I know you think you understand him," and Stede immediately describing Ed's emotional state perfectly accurately... gaypiratepropaganda - On Izzy saying "because of your feelings for Stede fucking Bonnet"

Ed's Arc veeagainsttheday - Ed, Killing, and the Kraken in Our Flag Means Death S1 and S2

piratecaptainscaptainpirates - I've been thinking about how Ed starts directly killing people in s2e8 57flagsofdeath - Still thinking about this scene. Ed lights the fire place, puts a blanket on the floor to lay on, and puts the two cake toppers next to each other before rolling over and bursting into tears. asneakyfox - i've talked a fair bit about how i don't think "anger issues" is a very useful way to describe how the show frames ed's relationship with violence

Izzy's Arc bakasara - Trying to parse my thoughts on Izzy's death and why I had a different reaction to it than I thought I would. forpiratereasons - all right. i'm ready to talk about izzy.

Love & Relationships in OFMD jaskierx - posting some thoughts from the discord about how many 'irl relationship' things they're dealing with in ep7 and how much i am eating my mattress about it medievill - ofmd does not give a fuck about reality or history or anachronism but it draws the line at magic dick.
