     Though [[Sburban Jungle]] was the first song to hook me on [[artist:michael-guy-bowman|Michael Guy Bowman's]] music, my heart lies with [[album:mobius-trip-and-hadron-kaleido]]. [[Dawn of Man]] is a favorite of mine from that album, and it also happens to be a partial remix of Sburban Jungle. In the Homestuck tradition, the natural thing to do then was mix them together, along with a cameo from [[Exodus]], featured in [[album:sburb-ost|SBURB]]. The instruments are based primarily on Dawn of Man, bringing in some of Sburban Jungle's mallet percussion and a few of my own additions. The result is Sburban Genesis, a song ultimately inspired by the mysterious origins of the game and its multi-universal legacy.

     Reworking this one a little to prepare for [[album:lofam2|LoFaM II]]. Track art is by [[artist:plaidcushion|Plaidcushion]], made for the LoFaM II project, and it’s really awesome art.
 
     Other than that, not much to report. How does this draft sound, and if you’ve listened to the [[track:sburban-genesis|first version]], how does it compare? Hopefully it’s an improvement.

+
+    <b>Too L8</b>
+
+    This is my final entry to [[album:coloUrs-and-mayhem-universe-a|the Homestuck Music Contest]], this time for Vriska. This song was written with [her confession scene](https://homestuck.com/005366) in mind, so it quotes from John’s leitmotif [[Doctor]] as well as [[track:MeGaLoVania]] and [[Spider’s Claw]] for Vriska. There’s also a bit of [[Sburban Jungle]], [[Homestuck Anthem]], and [[track:bl1nd-just1c3-1nv3st1g4t1on|BL1ND JUST1C3: 1NT3RROG4T1ON]], since I like to end my songs on a morbid note.
+
+    The piano/chiptune combo from [[track:wanderers-vigil-1-8-2012|WV]] returns here, since I find it fairly useful for setting a melancholy mood. The electric guitar and bass were pretty much required, this being a Vriska theme after all. The alternation between the heavy guitar parts and the lighter piano sections was chosen to reflect the changing tone of Vriska’s conversation with John, the leitmotifs roughly matching the various subjects they talk about.
+
+    Too L8 took longer to put together than [[track:batrachian-biogeny-1-7-2012|BB]] and WV combined, mostly due to school and sickness, but I’m still not certain about parts of it. Feedback was greatly appreciated on the first two songs, and any comments on this one would be fantastic.

-    <b>Batrachian Biogeny</b>
-
-    This song is my entry to [[album:coloUrs-and-mayhem-universe-a|the Homestuck Music Competition]]. It’s a theme for Bilious Slick, the glowing frog who also happens to be an entire universe. The celebratory melody represents the tremendous achievement of creating a Genesis Frog and the awe the Consorts and Prospitians have for it. There are hints of disturbances to come, however.

-    <b>Too L8</b>
-
-    This is my final entry to [[album:coloUrs-and-mayhem-universe-a|the Homestuck Music Contest]], this time for Vriska. This song was written with her [confession scene](https://homestuck.com/005366) in mind, so it quotes from John’s leitmotif [[Doctor]] as well as [[track:MeGaLoVania]] and [[Spider’s Claw]] for Vriska. There’s also a bit of [[Sburban Jungle]], [[Homestuck Anthem]], and [[track:bl1nd-just1c3-1nv3st1g4t1on|BL1ND JUST1C3: 1NT3RROG4T1ON]], since I like to end my songs on a morbid note.
-
-    The piano/chiptune combo from [[Wanderer's Vigil|WV]] returns here, since I find it fairly useful for setting a melancholy mood. The electric guitar and bass were pretty much required, this being a Vriska theme after all. The alternation between the heavy guitar parts and the lighter piano sections was chosen to reflect the changing tone of Vriska’s conversation with John, the leitmotifs roughly matching the various subjects they talk about.
-
-    Too L8 took longer to put together than [[Batrachian Biogeny|BB]] and WV combined, mostly due to school and sickness, but I’m still not certain about parts of it. Feedback was greatly appreciated on the first two songs, and any comments on this one would be fantastic.

-    Yeah! Another draft with more corrections. It shouldn’t sound so terrible now.
-
-    Anyways, this is for Jack and PM in their chase through the Furthest Ring. Quotes from [[Sburban Jungle]] (as usual), [[Explore]], [[Flare]], and [[Black]]. Inspired by [[track:noirscape]]. How do you feel about it?
