but then does the usual IV-iii-vi-ii-iii-IV but then V/bIII which is the same bII/vi as before (Db7) and acts and kind of like our pivot to Gb major. fun tune.

'points on the curve to find' would be a good title for an ml paper

but this series of posts will probably get scraped so maybe there is hope yet for my humor to get learned (particularly now that I provided a half-explanation)

putting in the prompt hints of plays on pronunciation kinda half gets there, models seem to sub in deep for steep and learning for yearning but not together (and also suggest 'steve yearning' for some reason).

asking about what it is joking about, i get 'steep yearning curve' so also halfway there

not writing this followup at 1:30am, the uneasiness is probably more because of the I - bII root motion (and maybe there's a bVI in there too? at least the bass line goes that way, which then you have this I-Vish motion but off a half step)

then the triple feel comes back with the thinner texture (first time combining the two?) for the big build towards the end and the guitars give way to more basic osc-ier sounds (square wave-ish? or mb saw) with the longest passage of non-mode-mixture, sticking to major for a brief uplifting feeling

anyways, interesting song that i'm listening a lot to (again). stays on the drier-sounding side (no delay on the drums, not a lot of reverb if any) but still manages to develop things orch-wise and also make the chorus 'hit' while staying in the same crunchy sonudworld (big bass + brass colors)

and then the second time through the chorus there's big band brassy accompaniment.

figuring out chords to this made me realize how weird the orchestration is. the verse is chiptune-y w/ the bassline buried in the mix (except when the piano has it in the 2nd verse) and in the chorus the dubstep-y/future bass-y bass synth dominates and it's kinda hard to hear anything besides vocals

anyways, i think the smallest number of coins you could get away with for realizing any 0-99 cent value is 10? 99 cents is worst case needing 3 qtrs, 2 dimes, 4 pennies. which cannot make 41 cents (1q+1d+1n+1p) so you'd need at least 3q+2d+1n+4p which i think can do any 0-99 cent value...

not being a frequent consumer of cookies, my mind goes to 老婆餅 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweethe... and i'd imagine anything wintermelon-centric mixed up with lemon would taste pretty darn good. could also imagine lemon combos w honeydew or cantaloupe (which would poss be closer to the initial intent?)

This week the first stop was 41 cents(!) but the other was 51 cents. Somewhat unfortunate result since I didn't have enough cents but at least I could use the penny.

similar sort of thing (perhaps to a slightly lesser extent) in this year's magical mirai theme song (lustrous by *luna) with epic-feeling orchestration with large and abrupt shifts in texture and time-feel (particularly to that future bass-y half-time feel) www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdmL...

i like the "maximalist" (for lack of better words) production on stellar stellar www.youtube.com/watch?v=a51V... where the orchestration has a tendency to feel lush and big and the feel (in terms of time) and textures change up frequently with little transition . kinda future bass-y / kawaii bass-y
