<h1>Love Magic — Snails House</h1>
<img id='album-art' data-album='Love Magic' data-artist="Snail's House" width='200' height='200' />
<p>
I think this is probably my favorite Snails House release overall.<br/>
It has <a href='mint.html'><img class='inline-album' data-album='Love Magic' data-artist="Snail's House" width='20' height='20' />mint</a> and <a href='pinky-promise.html'><img class='inline-album' data-album='Love Magic' data-artist="Snail's House" width='20' height='20' />Pinky Promise</a> which are two of my favorite tracks,
but all the tracks are good, so its one I like to listen through as a unit, rather than just shuffling into playlists
<br/>
I think Natsumatsuri sounds like <a href='https://song.link/s/4kVyw5HiFWfoOVc3Z540cI'><img class='inline-album' data-album='Kagayaki' data-artist='Masakatsu Takagi' width='20' height='20' />Amamizu</a> by Masakatsu Takagi.<br/>
<br/>
My most intensive listening for this was March 2022

<h1>mint — Snails House</h1>
<img id='album-art' data-album='Love Magic' data-artist="Snail's House" width='200' height='200' />
<p>
Something very comfy and nostalgic about the chords, even though its a more energetic song<br/>
Feels like a sort of confident relaxation to me
</p><p>
I think what really makes the track compelling overall is the great volume enveloping on the chords, with the octave jumps in the bass<br/>
The enveloping feels very much like the type of thing that couldnt be achieved through live performance on an existing instrument,
but still alive and dynamic, which is a good pocket for electronic music to be in<br/>
</p><p>
Generally the piece is pretty monothematic, just the one idea repeated several times, with a little transition section sometimes<br/>
But the texture and timbres get changed up throughout the process,<br/>
and I think the theme is just that good

<h1>Pinky Promise — Snails House</h1>
<img id='album-art' data-album='Love Magic' data-artist="Snail's House" width='200' height='200' />
<p>
Probably the best example of Snails Houses maximalism<br/>
I love the sheer throughput of musical events without losing definition
</p>
<ul>
<li>breakbeat,</li>
<li>rolled kicks,</li>
<li>big sawtooth chords,</li>
<li>that high arpeggio thing,</li>
<li>background vocal samples,</li>
<li>glitchy bass & plinky sounds,</li>
<li>some synthesizer that sounds like ad lib background vocals,</li>
</ul>
<p>
Any of these things could be the whole thing for a section, in a more sane composition<br/>
Its overwhelming in the best way<br/>
<br/>
Also has a great chopped vocal line,<br/>
accompanied by a synthesizer that sounds like vocal ad libs,<br/>
and then this clean synthesizer line with a really delightful interaction with the percussion,<br/>
and then a third synthesizer voice counterpointing with the ad lib synth<br/>
(honorable mention to the detuned comedy flute, lol)
</p><p>
Also a great example of ear saturation
