That was such a cool deal.

I think it's so funny that when it comes through the speakers, it's just, *so* stupidly loud... it just blasts you with energy. --- Track: Skaian Dreams (Remix) +Additional Names: +- Showtime - Sleep/dream sequence (earlier MSPA credit) +- Skaian Dreams (earlier MSPA credit) +Bandcamp Track ID: 1461016644 +# No longer available, can't be embedded Artists: - Bill Bolin Art Tags: - John -Duration: '1:30' +- Gate +Duration: 1:30 URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sc8wLKdRshY - https://archive.org/download/exile-pinkushion/16%20Skaian%20Lullaby.mp3 @@ -47,12 +89,20 @@ Referenced Tracks: - Skies of Skaia --- Track: Upward Movement (Dave Owns) +Additional Names: +- Upward Movement (earlier MSPA credit) +Bandcamp Track ID: 2960150394 +Bandcamp Artwork ID: a3754523999 Artists: - Kalibration +Contributors: +- Andrew Huo (edits) Art Tags: - Dave - Lil Cal -Duration: '4:20' +- Ninja Sword +- Dave's home +Duration: 4:20 URLs: - https://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/upward-movement-dave-owns-3 - https://youtu.be/j6UiUu_7LVc @@ -72,24 +122,36 @@ MIDI Project Files: - Title: MIDI by Unknown Files: - 'Upward Movement (Dave Owns) - Unknown B.mid' +Commentary: |- + <i>Quasar Nebula:</i> (wiki editor, 11/23/2023) + + Andrew Huo's edits aren't described more specifically, nor credited on Bandcamp; this credit is pulled from [the original MSPA sound credits](https://web.archive.org/web/20100210001701/http://www.mspaintadventures.com/soundcredits.html).

I mostly remember technical stuff about it, like that was the last time I used FL slayer before I decided it sounds dumb. + + I think putting together all these collab tracks really early on helped build the culture of the forum. There was this sense that what [[artist:andrew-hussie|Andrew]] was attempting to do was to build a studio of musicians whose work would cross pollinate. There were guys like [[artist:malcolm-brown|Malcolm]] and [[artist:mark-j-hadley|Mark]] and [[artist:seth-peelle|Seth]] and [[artist:bill-bolin|Bill]] whose work was ready to go on its own. So I worked with them less and was more interested in people like [[artist:nick-smalley|Nick]] or [[artist:buzinkai|George]] whose work was less arranged. And I wanted to work with musicians who could bring their own playing to the work so I leaned on [[artist:fenris|Fenris]] and [[artist:joseph-aylsworth|Joe Aylsworth]]. + + I don't think I knew just how "all in one" digital production was until I saw how quickly someone like Mark Hadley would turn out new hs music. It was competitive quickly. I guess my father being deeply anti-electronic music was a big influence. I wanted to work with musicians to qualify some reality to the work. To me it's very sexy to imagine the power of the ensemble. Composition might just be putting the right musicians in the room. So I practiced a lot more collaboration early on. + + <i>Michael Guy Bowman:</i> ([Michael Guy Bowman Talks About His Homestuck Music](https://youtu.be/85VXWZTg-vo?t=662), adapted to text, 7/20/2024) + + Explore was one of Buzinkai's pieces. RIP, of course. + + Chip music ended up having such an important role in this comic. I was never like, a big chiptune person - I didn't have the same dedication to trying to work with the hardware emulation that a lot of people did, and the handful of times I did chip music, I just faked it using the 3x oscillator within FL Studio. What I felt I could do, was to approach it - y'know, 'cause I'm always trying to think of it like it's something being produced in a studio, even [if it's] a simulated one within software - was to pad it out and put drums behind it, and find a way to make it more than just a loop, but something that progresses, once again. So I put the simulated drum sounds, the simulated guitars on that, and created this big ch-ch-ch rising scope to it. + + I only mention it with, you know, humility, that we had so much to work with because of Buzinkai. Including [[Doctor]], and [[Endless Climb]]... they were drawing a lot from Cave Story and the soundtrack to that game, which was such an inspiration for a lot of people. I was just glad to have something to contribute to that piece of inspiration, which I think maybe came closer to the grove, on what Homestuck - and anything that's sort of, like, a retro "let's revive the aesthetics of classic Nintendo gaming..." all that sort of thing, is about. --- Track: Guardian +Bandcamp Track ID: 2586232115 +# No longer available, can't be embedded Artists: - Bill Bolin Art Tags: - Frog Temple - Earth -Duration: '2:05' +- Pacific Island +Duration: 2:05 Sheet Music Files: - Title: Tabs by Danny Wolf Files: @@ -137,20 +223,29 @@ URLs: - https://archive.org/details/exile-pinkushion/05%20Guardian.mp3 --- Track: Nightlife (Extended) +Bandcamp Track ID: 817820078 +# No longer available, can't be embedded Artists: - Bill Bolin Art Tags: - Jack Noir - The Felt -Duration: '2:34' +- Itchy +- Clover +Duration: 2:34 URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L55OrtyUMko - https://archive.org/details/exile-pinkushion/04%20Nightlife.mp3 --- Track: Showtime Remix +Bandcamp Track ID: 1959163980 +Bandcamp Artwork ID: a3335808007 Artists: -- Gabe Nezovic -Duration: '2:02' +- Gabriel Nezovic +Art Tags: +- FreshJamz +- Music Note +Duration: 2:02 URLs: - https://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/showtime-remix-3 - https://youtu.be/VliU0X6XVpA @@ -158,9 +253,14 @@ Sampled Tracks: - Showtime (Piano Refrain) --- Track: Aggrieve Remix +Bandcamp Track ID: 460953025 +Bandcamp Artwork ID: a0892476453 +Art Tags: +- FreshJamz +- Music Note Artists: -- Gabe Nezovic -Duration: '2:11' +- Gabriel Nezovic +Duration: 2:11 URLs: - https://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/aggrieve-remix-3 - https://youtu.be/DpB5llhN2L0 @@ -170,6 +270,11 @@ Sampled Tracks: - Aggrieve (Violin Refrain) --- Track: Verdancy (Bassline) +Bandcamp Track ID: 351330356 +Bandcamp Artwork ID: a4135527921 +Art Tags: +- FreshJamz +- Music Note Artists: - Kalibration Duration: 0:52 @@ -178,9 +283,14 @@ URLs: - https://youtu.be/UudwG8_AoOQ --- Track: Kinetic Verdancy +Bandcamp Track ID: 198684116 +# No longer available, can't be embedded Artists: - Bill Bolin -Duration: '1:30' +Art Tags: +- FreshJamz +- Music Note +Duration: 1:30 URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DauXhvk7p6o Referenced Tracks: |
