Because, actually, the main emphasis was going to be on loops, originally - we thought that everything that appeared in the comic was just going to be a piece of looping media, the idea that he was going to do full animations, with a beginning, middle and end, that wasn't in the scope of the project yet. Finishing out Sburban Jungle and saying, like, "now *here's* something that could progress from start to finish, and stand on its own," motivated him to later bring it back at [[flash:1149|the end of Act 3]] as this big moment. And that's what ended up happening, with a lot of the project, is [that] people said, you know, "let's move away from just doing loops, and let's also focus on full-length pieces." Everybody just started working that much harder, as we saw that Andrew was willing to do that kind of thing. - <i>Michael Guy Bowman:</i> ([YouTube description](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP6916yGx6c), excerpt) + <i>Michael Guy Bowman:</i> ([YouTube description](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP6916yGx6c), excerpt, 5/26/2023) The theme song of #Homestuck, first appearing as [[track:sburban-jungle-brief-mix|an excerpt]] on [[flash:137|page 137]] and then later in full on page 1149 ([[flash:1149]]).

I was too lazy to set the channel settings manually, so I did each note on a different instrument, which is set to each speaker channel.

They made the super lush chiptune that’s the backbone of the song, and I arranged it with other instruments to try and really bring it to life. As one of the first songs either of us finished for the comic in those early days, we were both so proud of it ☺️ |
