We seem to have become better at naming things in the past year. Possibly just better at naming musical tracks, but those are the things we most commonly need to name.

Outside the songs we name for the prompt or the structure, it's exactly the kind of process that we wouldn't expect to help anyone else, unfortunately. We listen to the song, try to understand how it makes us feel, and try to produce some kind of language that makes us feel likewise. "Proficience" is a piece that made Packfox think of someone competent working on a task of some kind; "Torque" made Packsnek think of motion, force, velocity; "Open" is very sparse, with lots of space between quick little staccato notes.

It's slow sometimes. We do a lot of sitting with a track, listening to it, trying to feel some sense of it.
