Can you feel it? That sense of danger, the palpable tension in the air as the jungle trees sway in the breeze?

Commentary: |- <i>Ucklin:</i> The idea for this song started with the transition around 2:35 to the section with [[track:hate-you]] played in a straight rhythm. I wanted to capture a feeling of dread by making that part of the song methodical and delaying the payoff of some of the notes by a beat. It would also be a stark contrast to have this straight section in solo piano right after a climactic section with plenty of instruments in a swing beat! I was inspired to incorporate a musical palette from the 30s-40s because that's when I estimate Condy took over as Betty Crocker and started doing her guardian things. In the original song, I planned for the bass to carry most of the weight with regards to rhythm, but eventually, I was persuaded to add percussion to the track after helpful feedback from a few of the organizers, and I think it helped a lot! Hate You is quoted 3 times, although the first two ended up a bit disguised by subsequent layers of instrumentation. @@ -406,7 +417,8 @@ Commentary: |- Section: Disc 2 --- Track: Disc 2 -Directory: disc2-cosmic-caretakers +Directory: disc2 +Suffix Directory: true Artists: - psithurist Duration: 0:53 @@ -416,7 +428,7 @@ URLs: Cover Artists: - SpaceWaifu Art Tags: -- John's dad +- Dad - Karkat's lusus - John - Karkat @@ -434,7 +446,7 @@ Track: Voice of the Dead Artists: - Mathias Ramalho - cookiefonster -Duration: '2:20' +Duration: 2:20 URLs: - https://unofficialmspafans.bandcamp.com/track/voice-of-the-dead - https://youtu.be/aw72N9h0P08 @@ -459,7 +471,7 @@ Commentary: |- Track: Flittaurine Artists: - Shirokishi -Duration: '2:07' +Duration: 2:07 URLs: - https://unofficialmspafans.bandcamp.com/track/flittaurine - https://youtu.be/zWK3R-YnmTI @@ -479,7 +491,7 @@ Commentary: |- Track: Polypolyphemus Artists: - Ducky Senpai -Duration: '3:18' +Duration: 3:18 URLs: - https://unofficialmspafans.bandcamp.com/track/polypolyphemus - https://youtu.be/Rd9a2KQ_ZVk @@ -497,11 +509,11 @@ Commentary: |- Polypolyphemus is an intense track, so it's fitting for its art to capture the same intensity. Sollux's Biclops is captured right before its imminent demise as the troll's Mind Honey-induced flip out rips through the ceiling of his hive and surrounds the lusus in a multi-colored beam of energy. The meteors illuminating the night sky further illustrate the carnage present in the scene in a fashion that pops up time and time again in Homestuck proper. If only one of those meteors could break the chain around the Biclops' leg and set it free! Wait, the resulting impact would probably just kill the Biclops anyway.
