Music for 'Edit the Sad Parts'

[martinius]

This piece is written for cruentum's cruentum Big Bang 'Edit the Sad Parts'. It's a very interesting trans story which can be read here.

Piece is called 'Ocean Sounds'. I'd also like to issue a warning that it contains some very high sinus sounds in case someone is bothered by that.

WOW. This is very discomfiting and fits (at least what I've read so far) the tone of the written work extremely well. You've done an awesome job with it, but I will admit that it upsets me enough that I don't want to listen to it again. Excellent work!

I listened to it yesterday while editing the last bits and man does it ever fit the dysphoria and self-hate and just the sheer feeling of being utterly uncomfortable and ill at ease. Love what you did (and the anxiety and being uncomfortable, yeah, it's palpable in your piece), love that it fades out to something a little more calm towards the end as well. Loving it, and thanks so much for coming up with this.

Your works ever surprises me. I like how you don't worry about getting anyone out of their comfort level and do what feels right. This felt like listening to a graphic of the character's life (mood?), with some highs and lows. Like if I played it on a program showing sound waves, I'd have a map for the story. It did make me uncomfortable, but also curious, so well done.

What a fitting piece. It matches the chaos and grating feeling of Maddie needing to fix things and not knowing how to begin. Nicely done.

Hi, I just read cruentum's fic, followed the link for this. It was definitely uncomfortable, but also... sympathetic? Like, this was the sound going on in my head when I was sixteen and standing in front of a mirror and chopping all my hair off with dull safety scissors. I'm glad I don't feel it anymore, but I also don't want to forget it. Wow.
