Listen to "Waiting for Something That Has Already Happened" by James B. Pollack. 120 BPM, A# minor, Ableton Live 9.0.4, 15 Ableton sample references. "Waiting for Something That Has Already Happened" is part of James B. Pollack's Crowleyverse naming system rather than a literal one-to-one citation on this page. The connection is to the way Crowley's fiction handles world-building, layered time, memory, houses, thresholds, and hidden structure. Crowley was Pollack's writing advisor at Yale, so these titles also mark a personal artistic lineage, not only a literary reference.
