The interlude/theme music you are touched by

An unexpected yet heady mix, Black Sabbath and Warhammer 40k.

There are some images in the opening 45 seconds that might not go down well with some members of the Warhammer fan community

That said if, the individual depicted in scenes at 00:15 - 00:26 and 03:41 - 03:46 is who I think it's meant to be, I'd call them depictions of happier times when he was just an emperor...

Irish rock band Thin Lizzy's sixth studio album 'Jailbreak' (1976) was their most successful album in the US. The climactic track, 'Emerald' like many of their songs drew from Irish history, in this case the disasterous decision by one Irish lord to bring in mercenaries from England to fight in his wars. A decisision that set in motion a train of events that ended with Englands Henry II (I think the picture used at 02:23 - 02:26 is meant to depict his triumpant arrival.) taking the country.

And a visualisation for what follows after the second reference to a 'forgotten song'... Picture a two lane road, one lane is emptier than the other, in the emptier lane the tractor unit from a semi trailer slows for roadworks. Then comes the screech of brakes and the sound of a godalmighty crash, not once but three times... and in the stunned silence that follows, a radio can be heard playing a forgotten song...

Lostwave hunts (Online searches to identify the performers of tracks that no one knows who performed them.) can be interesting things.

You start with off-air recordings, sometimes dating back decades, like the one below.

Follow the process of elimination described below

And sometimes you get lucky leading to the result below.

And a cleaner version of the track, in this case the 2011 release of a studio version of a piece only known to most of the internet in the form of the off air recording of a live demo made in the 1980s

Whether Bach, Beethoven, or Mozart, it's widely recognized that classical music can affect a person's mood. In a study published in Cell Reports, scientists in China have used brainwave measurements and neural imaging techniques to show how Western classical music elicits its positive effects on...

Even today, centuries after he lived, Johann Sebastian Bach remains one of the world's most popular composers. On Spotify, close to seven million people stream his music per month, and his listener count is higher than that of Mozart and even Beethoven. The Prélude to his Cello Suite No. 1 in G...

Bouncing helps people move in sync during dance, study shows

At concerts, in stadiums, in nightclubs, or during group dances on the beach, what helps people move to the same rhythm the most is bouncing, a simple movement that acts as a facilitator of synchronization among people. This is the result that has emerged from studies conducted by researchers at...

In which I improvise with the TRAPPIST-1 orbital ratios. This is a real planetary system about 40 light years from us whose planets happen to orbit their host star in an unusually harmonious way. Pythagoras discovered that notes sound good together when their frequencies are related by whole-number ratios, and the planets in TRAPPIST-1 have settled into resonant orbits related almost exactly as follows: 2 / 3 / 4 / 6 / 9 / 15 / 24. Here I play these ratios both as rhythms and as frequency relationships, then I improvise over them.
