-    When it’s a month until release, you’re bored out of your mind, and you see the first slot in the album completely untouched, what do you do? Some would probably shoot a message back to the rest of the team, who are all no doubt more skilled than I am at composiion. Some would just leave it alone, rightfully assuming another team member would grab it. Or then you could just do what I did, max out microphone levels, and practically eat the thing for forty seconds. I’m ecstatic that this is the first thing people will see of Cool and New Homestuck, and I’ll probably find it hilarious if anyone closes the album because of it. It’s an incredible album, by the way. We’ve got some really talented people on the team, who went at it at full force. Great moves, guys. Keep it up. Proud of you.

-    I really enjoyed the original Upward Movement, and felt that the new one would have to be even better to do the original justice. I have been infatuated with music that is more synthesised ever since I gave the Hotline Miami soundtrack a listen, so there is some inspiration there. The first version of this redvx had base midi drums and a guitar synthesizer and seemed off, so I looked up how to make synths like those in Hotline Miami and similar synthwave creations. After throwing on a new drum kit and synth, the song surprised me by actually sounding good. I’d like to thank Makin and others for giving the original a listen and telling me how to fix it, and the rest of the music and art team for putting out this COOL and NEW masterpiece. <a href="../../media/misc/JaedAngery.png">:JaedAngery:</a>

     go down is definitely my favorite vol 1 song. It is the complete opposite of [[track:descend|Descend]] - while Descend was loud, jam packed, filled with different motifs and sounds, and overall fucking crazy, go down is more simple, even... relaxing? Not *that* many motifs, but still enough to call it a great medley, combining different - at the time marginally related to CANWC - melodies.<br>
-    I’ve always wanted to remix it, while keeping that simpleness to it. You can probably see that in the beginning - just piano, bass and Upward Movement drums. But as I continued with the song, it became probably as loud as Descend. It has what, 20 or something melodies in it now? Can’t really keep track.<br>

-    This is just something to add hilarity to the whole GRIMDARK saga of Rose’s life, which was a weird but fun little thing that happened in Homestuck.

So I added some edgy memes in there, and the thing about Advanced Darkness, because that’s some good shit. Metal Gear Rising, gunshots, and dog barks added oomph to the second half of it, and I love it. I like listening to this song and watching the video, even if it’s dumb. Hopefully you do too.

-    Shadow The Hedgehog was a legitimately fun game for me, despite how dumb it is. That kinda goes for Sonic Adventure 2, now that I think of it. It’s weird to think how randomly edgy those two games were. There was a mad scientist ridden with grief because the government killed his dying daughter for no god damn reason, so he goes fucking crazy and has a plan to commit worldwide genocide because of it. That’s pretty fucking hardcore if you ask me. But then Shadow The Hedgehog seemed to not entirely get why Sonic Adventure 2 was reasonable while it wasn’t. Suddenly all the “edge” parts got played up to almost goofy levels (it’s like taking candy from a baby, WHICH IS FINE BY ME), as opposed to the “ridiculous” parts being played up (NO DON’T TOUCH THAT LEVER, AHHHHH!!!). There’s a difference between kids suddenly being confronted with a madman’s delusions and then going in to fight a lizard, and between kids suddenly meeting Goku Satan and doing odd jobs for him and/or fighting him. The thing is that Shadow The Hedgehog takes its edge too seriously, while Sonic Adventure 2 balanced it out with, well, not subtlety (it wasn’t an amazing story), but rather a half of the cast not really giving a shit about the edge.

When Cecily sent me her mix of the song, he left out the honk sound effects and let me do those. Soon enough, I had the PERFECT idea for that: phrases associated with each of his soul components in a slowed down text to speech voice. And which voice could I ever do but the hilarious WillFromAfar?<br>
