     Hey, it's Cohen. But more interestingly, it's James and Toby, giving some commentary on the first half of the HIVESWAP: Act 1 soundtrack, available now on Bandcamp or bundled with HIVESWAP: Act 1 on Steam and Humble. We've got the first half of the discussion today, with the next half going up next Wednesday. Wait...did I say all this once before already? No. Impossible.

     Originally all the strife song titles had the word STRIFE in them. This one was called "Why'd it have to be STRIFE" a reference to the classic line in Indiana Jones where Indy, a known pacifist, questions the violent tone of the film. It is an extremely important moment in american cinema AND meta comedy. I'm honestly so surprised you hadn't heard of it. Anyway this is based off of "SNAKE GENESIS" which I wrote first. Movie Magic!

     They probably should have also named the song that plays when you play the Snake minigame this. Just two songs with an identical name. That would be have been cool.

     (Hey Cohen here. several people have asked if the title is a reference to the aaron carter song. obviously it is, yes, that. James' song titles were good but they were usually a very direct reference to what actually happened in the scene they were playing for. So I renamed them, because I didn't want people poring over the tracklist to decode the entire plot before actually playing the game. because you would have. I know you.)

     I thought it would be kind of funny if there was a JRPG battle theme mixed in with all the other ones. I think this is just what I make by default without any specific direction.

     This was written based off the extremely old original snake chase sketch Toby did. I wanted to put that throwback in for myself. Like an easter egg only I know or care about. I also wanted to try like... sampling stuff since I'm not super good at it yet and wanted to grow as a composer.

     I can't believe creator of hit webcomic homestuck and best friend of the pope, Toby Fox, would disown me in this way. Thrown under the bus! Left to die! A betrayal of the highest caliber. Owned in my own home. Absolutely destroyed.
     Anyway yeah I named it. I feel like after "Oppa Toby Style" he would have learned to stop letting me name his tracks. How many times do I have to teach you this lesson.

     Basically what I was told about Xefros before composing this track is that he's kind of sad and pathetic and it makes you feel bad for him. Also him and Dammek are in a shitty rock band. So I tried to compose something that was kind of lumbering and morose-sounding, but also a bit like... a rock band? In the end maybe it's a bit too heavy-sounding for Xefros, but I like the melody a lot. Also here's more voluntary tubas from me. That's all of my tuba contributions I think.

     This one really should have been called "HOW DO I BEAT SNAKE?" because I never found the clue to solving it and just did it by brute force. Also the drums kind of remind me of ska.

     (I am glad Toby had to brute-force this puzzle. When I played Undertale I got stuck on that stupid piano puzzle because the beta version he let me play didn't cut you off after 8 notes or whatever. I was one note off, trying to play what I thought was this 32-note song. I also took a break for a week and was still stuck on it when I came back, so Toby thought I'd spent a week just beating my head against the wall on that one puzzle. Toby thinks everyone is a brilliant musician like him and his stupid piano puzzle was too hard the end)

     OK I know what you're thinking, "This gets its own track on the OST, but OLD SECRET isn't even here??" Hey look I love old secret too but <i>(COHEN: redacted)</i>. I only put it in that cutscene for you, the fans. Also it fit really well. Anyway, this track is inspired a lot by <a href="https://tobyfox.bandcamp.com/track/quiet-water">Quiet Water</a> by Toby Fox maybe you've heard of him. It is just a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwICiHW-Pyk">very slowed down</a> version of Joey's theme.

     When Cohen asked me to write this song he was like "have you ever heard of transistor" and if making a smug face produced a sound we'd all be deaf.

     When we first envisioned the basement/snake strife it was gonna be really moody like the basement music. I wrote this as a joke but it worked out really well. But later we decided that scene could use a little BEEFING UP in terms of... intensity and energy? Anyway that's how a completely finished track ended up as a b-side. Could we re-use it later? Not really it's literally the mansion theme and table for tooth so it cant go anywhere else!
