Calamity. Awesome tune. I don't know what else to say about that. I thought [[track:walk-stab-walk-r-and-e|Walk-Stab-Walk]] was a cool contribution from Erik, and I just wanted to create something that wove that and the honking and all that, and build up to this big showdown moment between Karkat and Gamzee that never happened! You know, we were all just guessing at what [[artist:andrew-hussie|Andrew]] was gonna do next. And sometimes we got it, and sometimes we got it wrong.

My favorite part of the piece is the small touch in Karkat’s eyes where the background shows through, coloring them. As [[artist:michael-guy-bowman|Bowman]] worked on Calamity I was developing the composition for the art. [[flash:4085|The moment when Karkat and Gamzee lunge at each other]] got my heart racing in the sheer epic-ness of the sight. It had to be the track art. --- @@ -487,7 +487,7 @@ Referenced Tracks: Sampled Tracks: - Amen, Brother Commentary: |- - <i>Tavia Morra:</i> (track artist, [Tumblr](https://seeyoutmorra.tumblr.com/post/12054861967/homestuck-volume-8-track-art), excerpt, 10/28/2011) + <i>Tavia Morra:</i> ([Tumblr](https://seeyoutmorra.tumblr.com/post/12054861967/homestuck-volume-8-track-art), excerpt, 10/28/2011) So, Volume 8 came out and I did art for four of the tracks [one of which might look familiar](https://seeyoutmorra.tumblr.com/post/10881819098/thought-they-looked-rather-nice-together). @@ -543,7 +543,7 @@ Commentary: |- Frog Hunt was atmospheric and kind of based on, like, a weather report. - <i>Tavia Morra:</i> (track artist, [Tumblr](https://seeyoutmorra.tumblr.com/post/12054861967/homestuck-volume-8-track-art), excerpt, 10/28/2011) + <i>Tavia Morra:</i> ([Tumblr](https://seeyoutmorra.tumblr.com/post/12054861967/homestuck-volume-8-track-art), excerpt, 10/28/2011) Frog Hunt was, like [[Calamity]], one of the more challenging pieces since I opted for a much cleaner (And much more Disney) look for the piece.

Soon some big drums and some spacey guitars found their way into the mix (in my attempts to make something on the line of ambient black or doom metal). Finally, I added Dave’s “blast off” to help Rose with a metal-ified version of [[Atomyk Ebonpyre]] (which people keep requesting a full version of… maybe). This was another track that I had a clear design for, following as best as I could the events surrounding [Rose and Dave’s chat on Derse](https://www.homestuck.com/story/3875) before creating the Green Sun, focusing more on the atmosphere surrounding the debacle than what they talked about. After putting the original version up for the team to see, [[artist:clark-powell|Plazmataz]] offered to spruce things up. And she did. And it was awesome. And then [[artist:toby-fox|Radiation]] said he could make some crazy drums for the last section. And he did. And it was awesome too.

It never ended up getting used, but other people liked it, and eventually a remix of it ([[Carefree Victory]]) made it into the comic. The original was pretty short, so I lengthened it so that I could eventually get it onto an album. Like [[Sburban Reversal]], I recommended it as a bonus track. - <i>8bitkitten:</i> (track artist, [Tumblr](https://kitten-burrito.tumblr.com/post/11905462064), 10/25/2011) + <i>8bitkitten:</i> ([Tumblr](https://kitten-burrito.tumblr.com/post/11905462064), 10/25/2011) Days before the release of *Homestuck Volume 8,* I lucked out and was offered the opportunity to make track art. I chose “Carefree Action” and wound up with a cute 8-bit tune. It’s a lighter version of [[“Carefree Victory”]] from *[[album:homestuck-vol-4|Volume 4]]*. The 8-bit sound and peppiness of the song gave me the idea of Jade and Dave collecting frogs as they would coins in a video game. |
