    Cosmo has slowly been releasing all the tracks from his debut album The Much Much How How and I as instrumentals on YouTube over the last few weeks, and this is the one I was most looking forward to. I am absolutely obsessed with the album and the original version of Wriggle with lyric especially, so I knew it would be great as an instrumental too.

    It almost feels like a song that should be in a Studio Ghibli or similarly fantastical film. Something about the fluttery woodwinds and deeper Oboe notes hits me just right and takes me to a magical place. I can't help but picture a scene in my head with the Kodama (woodland spirits) when I hear it.

    p.s. Shoutout to @bilbodwyer for first introducing me to Cosmo on ~music. Thanks again! :)

      My pleasure :) He's doing a (very limited) tour of North America later this year. If one of the shows is convenient for you, I definitely recommend you go see him live!

          No problem! Well worth your time, he does a load of improvised songs each set.

      this is quite amazing to say the least! Funny how you mention Studio Ghibli. It was my first thought just a minute into the song. Thanks for sharing! @bilbodwyer mvp.
