The Wisdom Saga - Tumblr Posts
Dunno about you guys but I’m listening to the 20 second clip of Legendary on repeat
the liquid in the hourglass looks grape flavored
Some of Little Wolf (the beginning and such) sounds like that one song from Legend of Everfree or whatever it’s called
Little Wolf makes me feel like I can run through a brick wall.
listening to this saga is not enough. I need it injected into my veins and soul like coffee.
Stupid ass drawing I did at school today
Ok I stayed up till 12 last night to listen to the Wisdom Saga as soon as it came out and oh my gosh. I don’t even have words to describe ANYTHING I’m feeling. 10/10, no notes, great job Jay🫡
Do worry yall I got some stuff comin soon😁😁🤗🤭🤭🤭
My motivation reappeared😝😝😝
Also I love that when the stream got banned the whole chat was spamming
CAPTAIN???
Captain!!!!
Captain??!!!!
CAPTAIN!!!
All of the above points. I love when I see a post about the musicality of a piece. Much appreciated for putting into words what some of us can't!
Now that the live stream has concluded 45 minutes ago, and The Wisdom Saga is now live on Spotify, I spent some of my time to listen to the songs again (without headphones, I know I might've missed a few hints on the instruments and arrangements.)
So for now, here's my notes for this Saga (musically and story wise):
Legendary
The youthful touch of this song is just what this saga needs. MICO as Telemachus was a wonderful choice. His voice bounces within the song, and he sounds similar to Jorge's so it's like... He is his dad's son.
Story wise? It laid down a clear picture of what's happened 7 years later. His need to be stronger to protect his mother safe, especially that Ody's away.
It sounds like it's wishful thinking in a song.
Little Wolf
Oh my god, my anger in this song. I was scowling the whole time. Jorge is so good at painting a picture in the song. The taunting in the song, the way they challenge Telemachus.
I love how this songs sounds like a video game soundtrack, like Tekken (and the way the animatic looked like Tekken). Athena's entrance? Amazing. Telemachus being a geeky kid? AMAZING! He's such a kid, I love it!
I love Athena so much!!!
We'll Be Fine
Teagen's voice? Angelic! I thought her very best song was My Goodbye, but she really topped it with this one. I loved how she and Telemachus' sang Odysseus' melody in Warrior of The Mind. It's a wonderful touch that shows they're both longing for the same person.
The way MICO sounds so youthful??? He sounds so geeky and a teenager who's so excited about something. It's adorable!
Ody and Telemachus really see Athena as a friend. It's so touching.
Love In Paradise
This is the song I'VE BEEN SO EXCITED FOR (along with God Games). One thing I love: the flashbacks. Jorge really did a great job with the placement and tied every saga perfectly. I literally had chills when she finally saw what happened in Thunder Bringer.
Calypso. Calypso, my darling. Her voice is just so pure, so summery. She gave me summer vibes, seriously. It's kinda reminds me of TWICE's Alcohol Free, for real. Oh my god.
We've heard clips of this song before, and now that they recorded this song again, they sound so mature and clear. Oh god, I love this song so much!
Odysseus really be losing his mind. He was really losing it. Athena is the only one who can save her, and the way he screamed Athena's name. Oh my god, it broke me so hard!!
God Games
Luke Holt's voice... That's it. He sounds so big and scary. I love how his voice digs deep, the growls, it's even better than Thunder Bringer.
I was so excited about Apollo's voice. I did imagine him to sound a little cute, kinda like Yuuji in the English dub lol! So adorable! The little harp melody!! Uggh!!
HEPHAESTUS!!! okay, okay, the way he sang "Trust is not given not forged" was in the tune of Scylla and Mutiny ("I will not let you get into my way"), and it's UGGHH because that's the part where TRUST was tested. Oh my god JORGE!!!!
Aphrodite and Ares, my little sweethearts! Ngl, the animatic between Aphro and Athena was... Ughhhh!! I love Ares, I'VE ALWAYS LOVED ARES! Their voices fit them so well!! Athena fighting back to Ares for badmouthing Telemachus??? Holy shit.
Hera is so groovy!!!! So so groovy!!! I can imagine her throne room as a little dance floor!! And Zeus!!! Oh my god, Luke Holt!!! LUKE HOLT!!! PLEASE!!! STOP I'M OBSESSED!!!!
And Athena, oh my god. I wanna hug her. Her voice when she sang "let him go, please." Oh God, it's hurting me so bad. The animatic really didn't help because I was bawling!!!!
In conclusion, Jorge you smart and amazing person! You are creating a masterpiece!!!! This will be so big on stage, I can't wait till that happens!!!!
it's all fun and games until i'm alone in the kitchen, singing along to EPIC while acting out the scenes with banger facial expressions, realising that i would make such a good actress (specifically musical theatre girlie) if i only had a MILLILITRE of confidence in my FUCKING body.
I see your “Apollo agreed so easily because he doesn’t care about Odysseus” and raise you “the god of prophecy knows that Odysseus is going to make it home, so he’s not going to make much of an effort to stop him.”
Epic animators pls make animatics of these!!! (Songs are not mine)
And as always it’s about his wife
Odysseus is the ultimate yapper, he even yaps in his sleep.
I won't be settling for anything less than an Odysseus level of obsession from my future husband thank you very much
T minus eight days
OK guys, we have eight days to wait, after the first day of non sleeping doing t he Odysseus challenge I can tell you I start seeing large weird fish in the water, will update later.
telemachus really puts the L in legendary
He just wants to get home lol
Finished Commission for @zigadoodle !!!
