I very much enjoy contrasts in all art forms. Unexpected contrasts that are executed well just really made me happy.

Before I was on the team I started doing a regular broadcast on the skaia.net internet radio, and I'd improvise over this song pretty often back then. I eventually figured out a few parts that I wanted to keep consistent, and I did a bunch of takes to finally get to what you hear in the final song. Of course, MIDI never seems to record very accurately, and I'm not actually the greatest at piano (!!!), so I had to do some fine-tuning on the note timings to make them actually sound precise.

The xylophone and pizzicato strings that I was playing around with would become my bread and butter a couple years later. I'm not currently known among the Homestuck musicians as being an orchestral composer, but I've reached the point where there's nothing I like composing more than fully orchestrated pieces.

It started life as a theme for the Aimless Renegade, inspired by a [[track:desperado|"Desperado"]] theme which I believe was written by [[artist:bill-bolin|Bolin]] back when he was still part of the team. I wasn't really running on any particular goal of contributing so much as liking the style and wanting to make something similar. Imagine the piece as it is now played by some sort of mariachi band and you might have the right idea of what it originally sounded like. Naturally, it didn't quite fit. I liked the melody but it just wasn't working for the whole desert hero thing. So I flipped through my library of voices (small though it was back then) and came across the more electronic one that plays the melody now. I re-tooled the accompaniment to fit, and it became a piece that I always considered a theme for Derse. Hence its title. @@ -1323,12 +1346,17 @@ MIDI Project Files: Files: - 'Crystamanthequins - adamus (piano).mid' Commentary: |- - <i>Erik Scheele:</i> - Probably the thing I'm best-known for off of Volume 5, which is slightly ironic given how rushed it was.
