music for mooncakes.
<p>For my final episode of Season 2, here are the stories behind the songs I wrote for my children while I was pregnant with them. I talk about why I call my unborn babies "mooncakes," how I feel about playing instruments at home, and the upscale technology I used to record the vocals. This episode also includes the premiere of my newest song "Welcome," written for my third little mooncake - who is just a few weeks away from making his grand entrance into the world! </p>

loyalties.
<p>Probably the biggest departure from my usual genre(s), "Loyalties" is a song based on the fantasy book "Aurora Knights: Loyalties" by Robert Wiesehan, a friend from my undergrad years. I talk about the layers of symbolism in the music and lyrics, a stagger-breathing trick I used to make it seem like I can sing long phrases, and how I duplicated myself to create a crowd of both female and male voices for the final chorus. I also got to have a little chat with Rob himself about the inspiration behind his book, and his thoughts on adaptations of literature in other art forms. </p>

does everyone lose?
<p>I wrote this song in 2014 about some of my frustrations with social media back then. Things have only gotten worse these days, but there are still some redeeming qualities. Maybe. I talk about both the positive and negative effects social media has had on my life, as well as a few fun tidbits about the musical aspects of the song. </p>
