Listen to "What the Fish Said" by James B. Pollack. 128 BPM, F minor, Ableton Live 9.0.5b5, 3 Ableton sample references. "What the Fish Said" sits inside James B. Pollack's Crowleyverse naming system and connects most clearly to Beasts, Little, Big, and Ka. It points toward Crowley's recurring animal, bird, and metamorphic imagery. The source connection is literary and thematic rather than an official adaptation: John Crowley was Pollack's writing advisor at Yale, and the title system treats the catalog as a set of linked rooms inside that influence.
