Some are obvious (like say, Dave) and some are offering a bit more discussion. It comes to Rose and there's a degree of uncertainty, and I suggest that it'd be veering into classical, offering up Saint-Saëns "Dance Macabre" as an example of the sort of thing I'd expect, and then set out to whip something up. @@ -170,7 +170,7 @@ MIDI Project Files: Files: - 'At The Price of Oblivion - Unknown.mid' Commentary: |- - <i>Malcolm Brown:</i> (composer, via [[media:misc/commentary-collection.txt|early commentary collection]]) + <i>Malcolm Brown:</i> (via [[media:misc/commentary-collection.txt|early commentary collection]]) The name comes from a line of Rose's during Act 5 while discussing her options of survival with Doc Scratch: @@ -297,7 +297,7 @@ Referenced Tracks: - The Lemonsnout Turnabout - Crystalanthemums Commentary: |- - <i>Malcolm Brown:</i> (composer, via [[media:misc/commentary-collection.txt|early commentary collection]]) + <i>Malcolm Brown:</i> (via [[media:misc/commentary-collection.txt|early commentary collection]]) Not a huge amount to say on this one... The scene inspiring it was obviously Terezi's ancestor Redglare vs Vriska's ancestor Mindfang during the sort of mock-trial that ended in Mindfang mind-controlling the crowd and hanging Redglare.

Things changed though. Once I had actually started writing and refining it, I decided to change its message, from a mad owl thing to the mysterious demon in the troll's session which had been [recently mentioned](https://www.homestuck.com/story/2606) in the comic (I wrote this sometime in Fall 2010). Also, yes, that is why there is distorted owl screeches at the end, although they were more meant to evoke the horrorterrors crying out in pain than owls by the time it was finished. Contains some very powerful organ and some great chord progressions, but also some structural choices I am not completely proud of, which remained in the piece until its release months and months later because the original Finale file crashed on me before I had a chance to save it. So, rather than attempt reconstructing it, I went with what I had, and it stuck. @@ -773,7 +773,7 @@ Referenced Tracks: - Doctor - Penumbra Phantasm Commentary: |- - <i>Malcolm Brown:</i> (composer, via [[media:misc/commentary-collection.txt|early commentary collection]]) + <i>Malcolm Brown:</i> (via [[media:misc/commentary-collection.txt|early commentary collection]]) Ok, so this one. First main goal was some kind of Doctor remix, on the ground that I never actually did one (Took my hiatus around the time of Vol 5.) so this was partially a jokey attempt to "Join in the fun". Secondary goal was mainly a combination of liking the track this is mostly based on (Waking World) and the concept of Godhood ascension (Didn't have a particular character in mind at the time). There's also a little bit of wanting to try some new instrument samples (Namely choir and guitar) so there was a bit of experimentation in this one too. @@ -841,7 +841,7 @@ Track Artwork: Referenced Tracks: - Sburban Countdown Commentary: |- - <i>Mark J. Hadley:</i> (composer, via [[media:misc/commentary-collection.txt|early commentary collection]]) + <i>Mark J. Hadley:</i> (via [[media:misc/commentary-collection.txt|early commentary collection]]) Not long after I made Sburban Countdown, I made a version that rewinds back to the beginning again and called it 'Sburban Reversal', just in case it might be useful someday. Andrew ended up using part of it in act 2 except for the actual reversing part, but still credited it as 'Sburban Reversal', which had people asking me constantly after that if it's a real song. It wasn't really anything except for the reversing, so I eventually decided to extend it out to a full song. Since it was never actually fully in the comic, I recommended it as a bonus track. |
