     <i>Mark J. Hadley:</i>
     Whew... this is a really, REALLY old one of mine. I wrote the first version of "Bane" in 2001, and this version (the 'latest' one) was written in 2005. It's been a long time since I did anything with this theme, but I still really like it. I've been thinking about making a [[track:bane-p-s|newer version]] of it (since surely I've gotten better over the past decade, right?).
 
-    I kind of regret not slipping this theme into Homestuck somewhere; I feel like this could have easily been a recurring signature theme for projects I work on (like [[group:toby-fox|Toby Fox]] does with '[[track:megalovania-halloween|Megalovania]]').

Just him and his weird accordion that also somehow made all these extra sounds.

+Commentary: |-
+    <i>ruby:</i> (wiki editor, 4/7/2025)
+    As Jebb stated below, there is some uncertainty surrounding this version of Cascade. It is presumably based on a wip version that came anywhere between [[track:cascade-beta|Beta]] and [[track:cascade-directors-cut|Director's Cut]]. As we have no other [[artist:tensei]]-produced versions that came between those two, it is impossible to tell when exactly this one came from. The easiest way to think about it is that this is an edit of what would eventually become Director's Cut. That's why, as of writing this commentary, and unlike as of the writing of Jebb's commentary, this track is listed as referencing Director's Cut. The [[track:sburban-jungle]] and [[track:beatdown-strider-style|Beatdown]] references come from [[artist:tensei]]. It's impossible to tell whether [[artist:toby-fox|Toby]] had access to any stems for the song and was able to make the edits heard in this version himself, or if Tensei provided the base and Toby *only* layered in the additional instruments, but what it comes down to is that Cascade1 isn't in itself relevant to Tensei's "Cascade canon", from [[track:descend-original-version]] to the full [[track:cascade]], which uses a combination of Beta and Director's Cut.
+
+    <i>Jebb:</i> (wiki editor, 12/26/2024)
+
+    This track actually samples some unknown nebulous OLDER version of Cascade which was made inbetween Cascade (Beta) and this one. From what it seems Toby's addition here are the instruments layered on top of the standard Cascade sounding thing, and the Sburban Jungle and Beatdown references are by [[artist:tensei]]. However, we do not have the original version of Cascade which this track samples, so as it is now we are using this track as the reference for [[track:cascade-directors-cut]], as it is the earliest known version of this track which has that little bit at the beginning.

+
+    at one point, kids, i was working on expanding “descend2” (what would become cascade) into something bigger and longer. obviously that fell through and tensei finished his track as he wanted to do it, which is well and good, but hey.
+
+    this is as far as i got. maybe i’ll finish it one day.  there are a buttload of problems here, most notably the sburban jungle samples in the lead up to the drop and the fact that i didn’t make it my own, enough, at this point.
+
+    maybe this will get done for volume 9. i’d like that.

+
+    <i>Quasar Nebula:</i> (wiki editor, 1/1/2025)
+
+    The name for this track is taken as [[artist:rj-lake|Robert J! Lake]] refers to it in the booklet commentary for its complete version, [[track:freefall]]. As Makin noted in an in-data comment:
+
+    <i>Makin:</i> (wiki editor, data-file comment, 8/20/2023)
+
+    No official name, this one ["Cascading Events"] is possibly fan-sourced?<br>
+    Also known as "Descend2 Demo", "Freefall Beta" or "cascade2"
+
+    <i>Quasar Nebula:</i> (wiki editor, 1/1/2025)
+
+    The MP3 for this track (obtained directly from tumblr) has a date/year field of 2010. As RJ noted in Vol. 10's booklet commentary - this track is older than [[flash:4109]] itself! (There is no track / file name for the MP3 or as part of the original tumblr post.)
+
+    The Descend2 reference in this track, pointing to [[track:descend2-11-24]], is arbitrarily chosen. All versions of Descend2 were posted to Tindeck around the same date ([[date:11/24/2010]]), so we assume the latest, "most complete" version was sampled, but we haven't musically backed this up yet.

Although this one's cheating because it's full of [[track:crustacean|borrowed]] [[track:rex-duodecim-angelus|Homestuck]] stuff. It was goin' to be some kind of Underwater Level music originally but then I remembered "Oh yeah, Halloween" so here we are.
+
+   Also hey! That [[track:sound-judgement|Terezi track WIP]] I posted up a while back has had quite a bit of interest. Should have some good news for your guys come the inevitable [[album:homestuck-vol-10|VOLUME 10]] since I've been workin' on it since then, although at this point it's kind've in "Alternate Universe"-ville given the current state of affairs and whatnot.

     The last of my three entries to the Homestuck Music Contest, the other two being [[Guns Blazing]] and [[Vodka Mutiny]].
+
     A song for Kanaya, this song is - in my opinion - the weakest contender of the lot. Daywalker nonetheless marks my first attempt at using real audio in a song - I recorded the flute performance myself. Unfortunately, my playing, recording, and production are definitely not up to snuff, honestly. Given that it was recorded with a terrible laptop mic, with a player who hadn't played in a long while (me), I suppose that was honestly no surprise.
+
     However, I love both the harp and flute melodies in this song. It was a blast to play, and I'd definitely think about using them again at some point in the future.

+
+    I have recut and remastered my track Flare, as it was presented to you in the Cascade flash (rather than the calmed-down [[Flare|album version]]). I get asked a lot for this, so I decided to give it some extra love and attention.
+
+    I have attempted a number of times to put together a mix of Flare that utilized the distinctive crescendo that is recognizable [[track:flare-cascade-cut|from Cascade]], but it never seems to work well without the cinematic context. The buildup sort of leads to nothing, and then the track either ends awkwardly or fades out, and I have something personal against fade-outs. Maybe I'll talk about that someday. But not now.
+
+    I gave it another go, this time trying a decrescendo to bring the song back down from all the energy it riles up, then ending it on kind of a creepy note. I had more success here than I ever have in past attempts to cut the song together in this way.
+
+    Flare was a pretty big hit in its own right, so there's always the pressure coming from the responsibility to handle this properly. I hope you enjoy it!

+
+    It's been a long time since [[Cascade]], Homestuck. But now that this is finally finished, it's time to release the new [[Flare]] remix!
+
+    This song has almost every musical element of the original Flare sampled and used in a new way, along with lots of new additions and a gritty EDM style of production. I wrote the original song a long time ago, and since then I've grown dissatisfied with it in some ways. How better to improve on it than with a remix?
+
+    For track art I talked to my girlfriend [[artist:andarix]], who has been doing crest design commission lately. She made one for me featuring the Green Sun and the chain of Derse for me, and I don't think it could have turned out more awesomely!
+
+    I'm afraid you can't buy or download this song yet, but it will definitely be available on the next official Homestuck album release.
+
+    And I want to give a special thanks to my patrons on [Patreon](http://www.patreon.com/plazmataz). Without you guys, I would have never have had the resources to make this remix!
+

+
+    This track was released about halfway through the period between [[album:homestuck-vol-9]] and [[album:homestuck-vol-10|Vol. 10]] - the 'next official Homestuck album release', which did not include this track. Though, back in 2012, Clark Powell contributed to [[track:solar-voyage]], which did show on Vol. 10 and also arranges Flare.

+   <b>Canned Corner: Flight of the White Wolf</b>
+
+   Ahh, Flight of the White Wolf. This guy was in development for ages and basically supposed to be a kind of background track for PM vs Jack in their crazy god/wolf forms.
+
+   The reason it never got anywhere is for a few reasons: a) I never quite got the bit that begins at 0:42 right (That whole section went through dozens of iterations, some with live guitar, some without the [[track:rex-duodecim-angelus|RDA]] reference etc.) and b) [[track:a-taste-for-adventure|A Taste Of Adventure]] was <b>infinitely</b> better as both an orchestral piece and a remix of [[track:dissension-original|Dissension]], so I binned it.
+
+   The only bit of this track I still really like (and may save for a future project ;) ) is 0:00 to 0:42 (Which returns right at the end). The rest of it I reckon's a bit meh (Although some of the percussion I like).
+
+   Also since there's no reference to [[track:black]] or anything Jack-esque then it's even less suitable for the original goal. It's still a "reasonably" ok track, but alas didn't make the cut.
+
+   Hope you guys enjoy it!

+    <i>Malcolm Brown:</i> ([SoundCloud description](https://soundcloud.com/dragonxvi/ham-and-steak-unused-homestuck-music))
+
+    A whole bunch of unused Homestuck music in no particular order. A good chunk of this is some final boss concepts merged with what would later become [[track:oppa-toby-style|"Oppa Toby Style"]] by Toby Fox, along with some other misc tracks. Figure it's nice for a bit of posterity although don't expect anything cleaned up... (That's for later :D)

+
+    <i>Grace Medley:</i> ([HSMusic Discord](https://discord.com/channels/749042497610842152/749067042250031214/1353306034281648202), 3/23/2025)
+
+    Alright, I promised I’d make a case for it, so let’s discuss the question of **Who Oppa’d Toby’s Style?**
+
+    The entire ambiguity to the case of whether or not Malcolm Brown had a hand in writing [[Oppa Toby Style]] stemmed from the following description to Ham and Steak on SoundCloud:
+
+    > A whole bunch of unused Homestuck music in no particular order. A good chunk of this is some final boss concepts merged with what would later become "Oppa Toby Style" by Toby Fox, along with some other misc tracks.
+
+    So what I want to do is first look at what this remark might actually mean, and then why it wouldn’t have made sense for Malcolm to have written any material which appears in the final version of Oppa Toby Style. And I’m realising now as I write this that I’m going to have to write an entire serious breakdown of artists’ musical techniques while repeatedly saying “Oppa Toby Style”.
+
+    **Part 1: The SoundCloud Description**
+
+    So the bit to focus on here is “A good chunk of this is some final boss concepts merged with what would later become "Oppa Toby Style" by Toby Fox”. This has caused some confusion because some people have taken it to mean, “This is the missing link between Rex English and Oppa Toby Style”, when what it’s saying at face value is, “This interpolates what would one day be Oppa Toby Style, which didn’t exist at the time”.
+
+    What’s important to note is that Malcolm says “merged with”, rather than “is”, and nowhere in this description does he indicate that “what would later become "Oppa Toby Style"” is something which he himself had penned. Let me draw a diagram:
+
+    <img src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/ham-and-steak-lineage.png" width="480" height="270">
+
+    So to begin with, there’s no reason to believe Malcolm Brown wrote what would later become Oppa Toby Style. Now I’m going to explain why there is reason to believe that he didn’t. For the “is” scenario in the above diagram to be true – that is to say, for there to be elements of Oppa Toby Style  written by Malcolm Brown – there needs to be at least one element present in Ham and Steak and Oppa Toby Style, and not in Rex English. And as it happens, there is one. The main ostinato:
+
+    <img src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/oppa-toby-style-ostinato.png" width="486" height="60">
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/Exhibit A - OstinaToby Style.mp3"></audio>
+
+    **Part 2: The Rhythm**
+
+    Now I do want to stress beforehand that everything I’m going to explain in this section pertains to Malcolm’s work in 4/4 time. I’m ignoring tracks like [[Joy And Dreams Eternal]], [[Apexhalation]], and all the rest of them, because the following just doesn’t apply to them.
+
+    The rhythm is a bit of a smoking gun because there’s very little variety in how Malcolm writes rhythm, and the main ostinato does not fall under that umbrella. The first point is that this ostinato is played throughout OTS on guitar and on bass, which you won’t find to be true of the main rhythm of any of Malcolm Brown’s tracks. The overwhelming majority of the time, one of Malcolm’s main rhythms will either be on the drums:
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/Exhibit B - Drum Examples.mp3"></audio>
+
+    Or the strings:
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/Exhibit C - String Examples.mp3"></audio>
+
+    Even if you’re not musical, try to clap along to these tracks. You should find that you’re clapping alongside these instruments, whether it be alongside every note, or along every phrase of notes (e.g. with DYRM, you’re probably clapping along to each descending set of eight notes in the strings (or possibly subdividing each of those phrases into two groups of four notes)).
+
+    The other, and even more important matter, is that the palette of rhythms Malcolm uses is very, very small. Disqualifying tracks without a particularly strong rhythm (or the aforementioned outside-of-4/4 tracks) I could only find three rhythms which appear in his work.
+
+    Some of the below examples feature slight embellishment – Malcolm generally adds a few notes here or there to his drum or string ostinati, because they’re built from very elementary rhythms. I’ve tried to collect examples with as little embellishment as possible in the hopes of conveying the general idea of each rhythm.
+
+    A straight rhythm (with the occasional variation of the rhythm being played on the backbeat). This is the simplest kind of rhythm there is, and the most consistent. This is a beat where every note is the same length:
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/Exhibit D - Straight.mp3"></audio>
+
+    A swung rhythm, which you can think of as sounding like a “galloping” beat. This one should feel like short beats, followed by long beats. Short-long. Short-long. Short-long:
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/Exhibit E - Swung.mp3"></audio>
+
+    And... I don’t think there’s a name for this one? It’s a very, very common variation on the straight rhythm with the third beat split in half. You can count it out as... One! Two! Three and four! Or maybe it might be easier to understand as... Long, long, short-short-long. Here are some examples:
+
+    <img src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/one-two-three-and-four.png" width="532" height="236">
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/Exhibit F - One Two Three-and-Four.mp3"></audio>
+
+    Now let’s refer back to the Oppa Toby Style ostinato in exhibit A.
+
+    You may notice that this doesn’t fit any of the above categories at all, even when we simplify it:
+
+    <img src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/entirely-new-guy.png" width="532" height="236">
+
+    If you can’t read music, count out these ratios. ONE-two-three-four-ONE-two-three-four-ONE-two-three-ONE-two-three-ONE-two. Do that fast enough and you should start to feel yourself counting out the Oppa Toby Style rhythm.
+
+    <img src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/4-4-3-3-2.png" width="532" height="236">
+
+    Now, if you’re a Toby Fox diehard, you’ll recognise this tendency to start a bar with long notes and finish it with short ones anywhere:
+
+    > <i>[[artist:toby-fox|Toby Fox]]:</i> “Here's my theory about why people favor the syncopation they do: It seems like ending a measure with a shorter note ON the beat leads into the next measure more naturally. It even sounds like a leadin: dun-DUN! This is supported by the fact that one of the most popular syncopations in existence is the one in 4/4 that goes 3 3 2. This is probably the same principle.”
+
+    Let’s hear some more examples of Toby’s rhythms that end bars with shorter notes than they start with.
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/Exhibit G - The Toby Lead-In.mp3"></audio>
+
+    This is the kind of thing where, once you notice how often Toby does it, you kind of can’t un-see it. The frequency with which he ends a bar quickly to lead in to the next one is astounding, and he’s right – it really is a useful tool for making music catchier!
+
+    So while it’s not impossible based on the rhythm alone that OTS’s main ostinato could have been written by Malcolm, it’s a very long shot from his signature sound, and it is something Toby pulls off a lot. But rhythm isn’t all there is to the ostinato.
+
+    **Part 3: The Melody**
+
+    Let’s look again at the sheet music to the ostinato.
+
+    <img src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/oppa-toby-style-ostinato.png" width="486" height="60">
+
+    If you can sight-read and you know anything about jazz, you could probably peg this as being in the hexatonic blues scale (with a seventh from the harmonic minor, or sharp seventh, at the end of the second bar). If you don’t know anything about jazz, the hexatonic blues scale is the pentatonic minor scale, but you’re fun enough to have a flat fifth in there every now and then. If you don’t know any music theory at all, you’ll recognise this scale from every time Toby does something dark and jazzy sounding. Here are the first five examples I could think of:
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/Exhibit H - Toby Blues.mp3"></audio>
+
+    Malcolm, on the other hand, sticks to your usual classical diatonic scales (your natural minor and major keys, that sort of thing – music without any sharps or flats in the scale), with very, very few exceptions. In fact, I trawled through every single Malcolm Brown track I could, and found literally only one example of a flat fifth in all of his music that wasn’t a cover of someone else. It’s at the start of Time Is Money, which Malcolm describes as “based on a old [sic] track I did yonks ago” and “abandoned because it was kinda naff”.
+
+    <img src="media/misc/ham-and-steak/time-is-money.png" width="198" height="45">
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/archive/Time Is Money.mp3"></audio>
+
+    That is, to my knowledge, the only time Malcolm Brown has ever penned a single flat fifth.
+
+    **Conclusion**
+
+    Ultimately I guess what I’m asking is which possibility takes fewer assumptions to believe:
+
+    1. A key component of Oppa Toby Style, which matches Toby’s musical style exactly, was actually written by Malcolm Brown, who was uncredited, did not explicitly credit himself as writing, and who very, very rarely ever used even one of the characteristic marks of Toby Fox’s style, let alone multiple at the same time, or
+
+    2. A few people read the SoundCloud description the wrong way?
+
+    Also B.T.W. there’s [[Penumbra Phantasm]] in Ham and Steak at 7:43 (it’s the piano) and in Oppa Toby Style at 4:48 (in the left ear)

-    <i>Tensei:</i>
-    I'll have to do some explaining for this one: I've been messing around with vertically layered music composition, and wanted to do something with problem sleuth (that OTHER mspaint adventure). Feel free to skip my blathering below and just listen to the music though!
+    <i>Clark Powell:</i> ([Tumblr](https://plazmataz.tumblr.com/post/23084666959/and-for-your-listening-pleasure-a-snippet-of))
 
-    I always felt like PS was at least partially a callback to 90s point 'n click adventure games along the lines of Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Island, Sam & Max, etc. so this song is intended to reflect that. If you imagine PS as a video game, this is the song that would play at the very start of the adventure while our heroes are messing around in their offices and getting caught up in all kinds of shenanigans.
+    And for your listening pleasure, a snippet of something called Jane Dargason. It is an unfinished track, part of my work lately putting together some music for [[album:homestuck-vol-9|Homestuck Volume 9]]. The beautiful artwork, for which the music is arguably just a vehicle, is brought to you by the astounding talent of [[artist:tavia-morra|Tavia Morra]].
 
-    Now, the nice thing about PS is that the three main characters (Problem Sleuth, Pickle Inspector and Ace Dick) all have some strong themes that make it easy to come up with appropriate musical motifs. In fact, the three musical instruments that appear fairly early in the comic ( A trumpet, a clarinet and a tuba) all are pretty obviously intended as metaphorical representations of the three heroes, which means that as a composer I have my work cut out for me.
+    You remember [[Jade Dragon]], right? The rich wall of sound therein owes itself to the fact that it samples [[Viva la Vida]], from its namesake Coldplay album. Jane Dargason is a spiritual successor, using samplework from [[Life in Technicolor]] off the same album. All of this is combined here to surprisingly lovely effect with sounds from an unreleased track by RJ (who, as we have discussed, is the coolest).
 
-    The idea with vertical layering in this song is that depending on which of the protagonists is currently 'on screen', the theme uses different motifs and lead instruments: when more than one protagonist is on screen their motifs are played at the same time and combined. Normal playback methods don't support this kind of interactive music (many game engines do, however), so this particular version is more of a proof of concept that just demonstrates the different layers and highlights how they interact.
+    In short, we have an anthemic Jane tune in the workings!
 
-    The first section after the intro belongs to Problem Sleuth. He's the leader of the bunch, and to reflect his mario-esque all-around average strength, his motif is played on a muted trumpet in the middle register with a combination of short and sustained notes. 
+    <i>Quasar Nebula:</i> (wiki editor, 1/17/2024)
 
-    After that we come to Ace Dick. His motif consists of short notes played on a tuba and backed by trombones and timpani to throw some appropriate weight around. 
+    This upload to Tumblr featured artwork by Tavia Morra which would eventually end up used on [[album:homestuck-vol-9]] for [[track:princess-of-helium]], rather than [[track:jane-dargason|the final version of this track]] (which featured art by [[artist:dawn-davis]] instead).

-    The fourth loop combines the motifs of all three characters to demonstrate the interaction between layers when all three are present. The final loop is a variation on the Problem Sleuth motif with an added theremin and a delay effect on all the instruments to give it a 'spacy' sound: we're entering the realm of imagination and the music becomes appropriately screwy.

+Commentary: |-
+    <i>Tensei:</i>
+    I'll have to do some explaining for this one: I've been messing around with vertically layered music composition, and wanted to do something with problem sleuth (that OTHER mspaint adventure). Feel free to skip my blathering below and just listen to the music though!
+
+    I always felt like PS was at least partially a callback to 90s point 'n click adventure games along the lines of Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Island, Sam & Max, etc. so this song is intended to reflect that. If you imagine PS as a video game, this is the song that would play at the very start of the adventure while our heroes are messing around in their offices and getting caught up in all kinds of shenanigans.
+
+    Now, the nice thing about PS is that the three main characters (Problem Sleuth, Pickle Inspector and Ace Dick) all have some strong themes that make it easy to come up with appropriate musical motifs. In fact, the three musical instruments that appear fairly early in the comic ( A trumpet, a clarinet and a tuba) all are pretty obviously intended as metaphorical representations of the three heroes, which means that as a composer I have my work cut out for me.
+
+    The idea with vertical layering in this song is that depending on which of the protagonists is currently 'on screen', the theme uses different motifs and lead instruments: when more than one protagonist is on screen their motifs are played at the same time and combined. Normal playback methods don't support this kind of interactive music (many game engines do, however), so this particular version is more of a proof of concept that just demonstrates the different layers and highlights how they interact.
+
+    The first section after the intro belongs to Problem Sleuth. He's the leader of the bunch, and to reflect his mario-esque all-around average strength, his motif is played on a muted trumpet in the middle register with a combination of short and sustained notes.
+
+    After that we come to Ace Dick. His motif consists of short notes played on a tuba and backed by trombones and timpani to throw some appropriate weight around.
+
+    Pickle Inspector goes third with sustained notes played in the higher register of a clarinet. He's a bit of a loopy character so there's some glockenspiel and a lot of chroma... chromatics? chromaticity? to give it a bit of whimsy
+
+    The fourth loop combines the motifs of all three characters to demonstrate the interaction between layers when all three are present. The final loop is a variation on the Problem Sleuth motif with an added theremin and a delay effect on all the instruments to give it a 'spacy' sound: we're entering the realm of imagination and the music becomes appropriately screwy.

+    <b>Canned Corner: “Mother”</b>
+
+    (aka. Music that didn’t quite make it. Since I’m not updating enough amma talk more about cancelled tracks you may have heard snippits of a while back but never appeared on any album)
+
+    Aah “Mother”, this one was conceived back around [[album:homestuck-vol-9|Vol. 9]] as a Rose track, originally under the assumption that post-scratch Rose would be important and act as a kind of parallel to Rose’s Mom pre-scratch. As usual this wasn’t the case, and instead she surfed out on a blaze of glory and ICP related shenanigans.
+
+    “Mother” was basically planned as post-scratch [[Harlequin]], but with flavours of Ms. Lalonde.  As such, it’s essentially [[Aggrieve]] in the style of Harlequin.  Then it’s blended more with my usual weird Chiptune-with-bits-of-orchestra thing.  The net result is kind of a more mystical, studious piece.
+
+    I kinda like it, but it doesn’t really do anything, and its only original bits are abandoned fairly quickly due to the shortness of the track.  Plus when it became apparent that post-scratch Rose has pretty much no influence on the plot, it was brushed to one side and I started on something else.

+Commentary: |-
+    <i>Quasar Nebula:</i> (wiki editor, 2/8/2025)
+
+    Included on the Homestuck Sound Test starting with its 4/13/2017 edition. We understand this track to precede [[Nautical Nightmare]] based on Toby's booklet commentary there:
+
+    > Originally Nautical Nightmare was an orchestral piece for Rose's Denizen. I wasn't completely satisfied with the end result so it was ultimately scrapped, but the melody and chords kept dancing in my head.
+
+    We don't have a precise date for this track, but in the same commentary, Toby wrote that he decided to remake it "MANY months later". (AlterniaBound released in March of 2011. Rose's denizen was introduced [in March of 2010](https://homestuck.com/story/1626).)
+
+    Wiki editor Lilith compared the ways this track and [[track:descend]] ([[album:homestuck-vol-5]], June 2010) both include Endless Climb.
+
+    <i>Lilithtreasure:</i> ([HSMusic Discord](https://discord.com/channels/749042497610842152/749067042250031214/1282186638545649676), excerpt, 9/8/2024)
+
+    so [[track:descend|descend]] references [[track:endless-climb|endless climb]], but I've noticed that the way it sounds there, here in this one (Nautical Climb) (around 1:13), it's like, less buried and rawer
+
+    <audio src="media/misc/nautical-climb-endless-climb.mp3" inline></audio><br>
+    <audio src="media/misc/descend-endless-climb.mp3" inline></audio>
+
+    <i>Quasar Nebula:</i> (wiki editor, 2/8/2025)
+
+    Also, this track's name is probably unofficial. "Nautical Nightmare" *could* be derived from "Nautical Climb", but the latter just makes sense as a combination of the two main two themes apparently referenced. [NSND](https://homestuck.net/music/references.html), for comparison, lists Nautical Climb as referencing Nautical Nightmare, rather than the other way around. Anyone aware of this track probably didn't notice Toby actually talked about it in commentary. (But Lilith did!)
+
+    This track is spiritually succeeded by [[Earthsea Borealis]], as Toby noted in his booklet commentary.
+
+    > I have since done something better called "Earthsea Borealis." Maybe you will hear it someday.

+
+    Right around when [[album:cherubim|Cherubim]] came out in March, I got a few requests to hear what the original sketches were for [[Red Sucker]] and [[Green Lolly]]. These were the skeletons that I gave the team. I worked with them through the process with input and suggestions on the pacing and structure, but they really took these simple ideas and ran in the best possible direction!
+
+    The cherubs are bizarre creatures, and everything about them is pretty far out there, so I focused on chromaticism in the themes to give it some off kilter base. Caliborn is (pardon my French) a little shit. He’s diabolical and selfish. I decided to base this skeleton on a minor triad to give it a darker tone right off the bat. Mirroring it on the Calliope sketch accidentally gave it a [Kuja’s Theme](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAXn5t7WjkI) tone to it, which I ended up loving. I immediately approached [[artist:kalibration|Kali]] about adding his own personal flare to it. I’ve always been a monumental fan of his compositions, especially [[album:tomb-of-the-ancestors|TOTA]], which was the sound I was looking for. He nailed it exponentially!

+
+    Right around when [[album:cherubim|Cherubim]] came out in March, I got a few requests to hear what the original sketches were for [[Red Sucker]] and [[Green Lolly]]. These were the skeletons that I gave the team. I worked with them through the process with input and suggestions on the pacing and structure, but they really took these simple ideas and ran in the best possible direction!
+
+    The cherubs are bizarre creatures, and everything about them is pretty far out there, so I focused on chromaticism in the themes to give it some off kilter base. Caliborn is (pardon my French) a little shit. He’s diabolical and selfish. I decided to base this skeleton on a minor triad to give it a darker tone right off the bat. Mirroring it on the Calliope sketch accidentally gave it a [Kuja’s Theme](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAXn5t7WjkI) tone to it, which I ended up loving. I immediately approached [[artist:kalibration|Kali]] about adding his own personal flare to it. I’ve always been a monumental fan of his compositions, especially [[album:tomb-of-the-ancestors|TOTA]], which was the sound I was looking for. He nailed it exponentially!

+   "Valor"
+
+   A combination of the [[track:showtime-original-mix|original Showtime]] and [[track:dissension-original|Dissension]] I made to serve as a strife theme for Jake English a year ago. I was actually going to make strife tunes for all of the alpha kids, but I was worried that Valor might be feel repetitive with [[track:assault|Assault]] on the same album. Then Bowman made [[Elephant Gun]] and I just stopped working on it.

+
+    Here’s a preview of what I’ve got so far. Not a huge amount of Karkat/Terezi injection in yet, or percussion for that matter, but I’m hoping to combine the two in some glorious union that will make even the hardest, strongest, man-horse-lusus be reduced to a pile of quivering tears and black liquid sorrow.

     <i>Circlejourney:</i> (wrote [[The Light's Rebellion]])
     so I just had a memory hit me out of nowhere - me and [[artist:serialsymphony|serialsymphony]] discussed quoting each other's tracks reciprocally back when Dave Strider's Cool Mixtape was meant to be on [[album:cosmic-caretakers]]. i.e. this track does reference [[track:the-lights-rebellion|The Light's Rebellion]] at 2:56
     we both made the front half of our tracks, and then traded motifs in the back half, so it really is a reciprocal reference
     sorry for your ears @ anyone who listens through this to confirm its existence

-    Yo, I was out for a while
-    Cuz the red miles, Squarewave, get inside my sylladex
-    Gotta fix shit now with a freestyle
-    My team's a mess and it's all up to reflex
+    Gears spinning inside your head, silently
+    Maybe make a body out of lead if you're ready and
+    Lost inside a shell just a little bit proud of your genes
+    But blood and breath and bones aren't as helpful as they seem so
 
-    Shit's kinda typical but this'll be mighty difficult cuz additional syllables
-    Got a long road to hoe so let's go now acrobatic fucking pirouette
+    Build yourself a suit of armor
+    Encase the heart that still beats fast
+    Tighten screws and loosen wires
+    And build a soul not made of glass
 
-    C'mon I gotta go faster
-    Yo, I'm a blur, colored alabaster
-    Got that Crockercorp sendificator
-    Absurd, I'm like my own flight simulator
-    Zoom, speedyquick like my diction
-    Do flips and shit, I'm twistin'
-    Don't even care who's list'nin'
-    Brace for impact I'm liftin'—
-    Off, and I'm not even sweaty
-    Though if I were, what I'd need'd be a towel
-    Hey, yo, Sawtooth are you ready?
-    Here comes a cruxite dowel (Nice catch!)
+    It's an easy process if you're not seeing
+    Tear yourself apart and pick up all the pieces
+    Put 'em all back together with life and hope
+    But you lost those 400 years ago
 
-    Did I mention that I did this 'cause I gotta build speed, I'm relentless
-    Gotta penchant, gotta mighty need like an engine, end of sentence; cool re-entrance
+    An easy process if you're not believing
+    There's a virus in your system but the trojan is deceiving
+    And you find that you'd do anything, anything
+    If your heart said go and do anything, oh
 
-    (Yes.)
-    (Fuck, yes.)
-    (Hell, fucking, yes.)
+    Running throughout every vein, electricity
+    And you're running out of fuel but you'll repair yourself at sea
+    Talking to the ghost you can barely see
+    But they left you all with nothing, but nothing's all you need so
 
-    Oh
-    Damn, a dead Roxy sans grave
-    Yo Squarewave, take care of this place
-    Now I know it's odd, but I gotta snog
-    So go ahead and say it (Yeah dogg!)
-    Dude, that's hella gay
-    But hey I can't complain cuz the rogue is awake
-    That's one down, two to go, or one
-    If Roxy finds a way to partake
-    (She won't. She's straight.)
+    Build yourself a suit of armor
+    Encase the heart that still beats fast
+    Tighten screws and loosen wires
+    And build a soul not made of glass
 
-    Fuck it, gotta move, Squarewave, see ya later
-    Runnin' out of time, livin' on a prayer, got my
-    Bucket and my Crockercorp sendificator
-    Now as they say it's all gone pear shaped
-    There's no other way
-    So decapatation is my escape
-    Goodbye Squarewave, ja mata ne (<i>see you later</i>)
+    It's an easy process if you're just seeing
+    Tear yourself apart and pick up all the pieces
+    Put 'em all back together with life and hope
+    But you lost those 400 years ago
 
-    Yo, I'm back, did I miss shit?
-    No I didn't, this attempt is kinda pathetic
-    Doof, bitch, out the way
-    Daddy Dirk is taking care of liplocking with Jane
-    Looks like everything is okay
-    One step left and we're headed to Jake
-    Ya better hold on, because this thing is so fast
-    Holy shit I'm cool
-    
-    (Did I tell you how cool I am? Cuz I am so fucking awesome.)
-    (It's time for [Unintelligible])
-    Grab on to my fucking skateboard, I'm so
-    Cool, I saved the day, you're welcome watch this
-    Cool shit that I set up earlier it's no
-    Big deal, wait I lied it's actually the coolest thing ever!

Since they were all released simultaneously, we don't currently know the exact relationship between them, but in the meantime this track entry ensures they appear as being related to each other.

-Lyrics: |-
-    I am an island, no man is an island but me
-    I reach out my leaves, and skillfully touch them to sea
-    I ship out a boat made of hope on the waves and watch as it slips below
-    I am an island, a island that nobody knows
-    (...I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-
-    I am an island, no man is an island but I'm not a man
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    I was raised by an ocean of creatures and brands
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    I give what I can of, the fruits and flowers that bloom on my skin
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    But when loneliness knocks, she lets herself in
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-
-    Islands don't sink, the water just rises around us
-    Just think, someone out there is watching the stars
-    But they're not the same as ours, some say they're already dead
-    And the light's only on in your head
-
-    I am an island, no man is an island but me
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    I warm all my sands by the pyre of my family tree
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    I took to the tundra, I climb every mountain and fight every monster I can
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    To run from that long burning fire, my friend
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-
-    I am an island, no man is an island but I'm not a man
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    And messages in bottles feel like battering rams
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    In my head I'm a beacon (In my head I'm a beacon), a pinprick of potential birthed out of nothing but blue
-    (I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island, I am an island)
-    And the light that I signal, it's shining for you
-    (I am an island, I am an island, oh, oh, oh)
-
-    Islands of love, we just want somebody to touch us
-    Just 'cause we are distant doesn't mean we are lost
-    We are where we are, and whenever a visitor docks
-    And is stranded, it means we are not
-
-    You and I have something in common, I will try to share my island (You and I are islands)
-    You and I are sinking in tandem, miles apart in every direction (You and I are islands)
-    You and I are treading this current, both of us are doomed for certain (You and I are islands)
-    You and I are our own now, maybe we'll wash up on solid ground (You and I are islands)
-    You and I are islands
-    You and I are islands
-    You and I are islands
-    You and I are islands
-
-    Islands of fate, lately I feel the tides shifting
-    They're bringing us closer together to stay
-    The waters are rippling, a new world is taking it's shape
-    And tonight, our Pangaea awaits

+    This is sort of a tribute tune to the Webcomic "MS Paint Adventures". It's very fresh; I recorded it almost as soon as I finished writing it. I slathered on Phasers, Chorus, Reverb and Echo to support the dreamy feel of the piece. It's played almost entirely with harmonics. Altered Tuning, too. ;)

+    i meant to upload this at midnight but i got hit with food poisoning so i had to take drugs for the mind-numbing pain and go straight to sleep. i'm still in a lot of pain right now as i upload this. but i don't wanna miss the date. so forgive me if any details look off about the video. blame the food poisoning.
+
+    also, i kind of forgot it was 6/12 so i had to rush. i made this whole thing entirely over the course of this past weekend. i wish i could've spent more time mixing, getting a good guitar/bass tone, etc. but we'll just have to live with what i have now. maybe i'll make some more adjustments to the audio when i don't have food poisoning anymore.
+
+    this video marks the first on-camera appearance of my electric guitar, which i bought in march. and it's not even functioning as a guitar for most of this video. well, anyway, i now have a full rhythm section! drums, keys, bass. well. it's not technically a bass, but whatever. i'll take what i can get. and yeah. my drumstick broke on the last beat of the tune. very lucky. or unlucky.
+
+
+    i went a little harder with the jazz harmony on this one. a lot of 9ths and 13ths and dorian and lydian. some b9's and b5's and #5's in there too. it might sound weird to you if you ain't about it, but you'll get used to it. i sure did.
+
+    and i'm still working on that osu! video. it's coming soon.

+    Yo, I was out for a while
+    Cuz the red miles, Squarewave, get inside my sylladex
+    Gotta fix shit now with a freestyle
+    My team's a mess and it's all up to reflex
+
+    Shit's kinda typical but this'll be mighty difficult cuz additional syllables
+    Got a long road to hoe so let's go now acrobatic fucking pirouette
+
+    C'mon I gotta go faster
+    Yo, I'm a blur, colored alabaster
+    Got that Crockercorp sendificator
+    Absurd, I'm like my own flight simulator
+    Zoom, speedyquick like my diction
+    Do flips and shit, I'm twistin'
+    Don't even care who's list'nin'
+    Brace for impact I'm liftin'—
+    Off, and I'm not even sweaty
+    Though if I were, what I'd need'd be a towel
+    Hey, yo, Sawtooth are you ready?
+    Here comes a cruxite dowel (Nice catch!)
+
+    Did I mention that I did this 'cause I gotta build speed, I'm relentless
+    Gotta penchant, gotta mighty need like an engine, end of sentence; cool re-entrance
+
+    (Yes.)
+    (Fuck, yes.)
+    (Hell, fucking, yes.)
+
+    Oh
+    Damn, a dead Roxy sans grave
+    Yo Squarewave, take care of this place
+    Now I know it's odd, but I gotta snog
+    So go ahead and say it (Yeah dogg!)
+    Dude, that's hella gay
+    But hey I can't complain cuz the rogue is awake
+    That's one down, two to go, or one
+    If Roxy finds a way to partake
+    (She won't. She's straight.)
+
+    Fuck it, gotta move, Squarewave, see ya later
+    Runnin' out of time, livin' on a prayer, got my
+    Bucket and my Crockercorp sendificator
+    Now as they say it's all gone pear shaped
+    There's no other way
+    So decapatation is my escape
+    Goodbye Squarewave, ja mata ne (<i>see you later</i>)
+
+    Yo, I'm back, did I miss shit?
+    No I didn't, this attempt is kinda pathetic
+    Doof, bitch, out the way
+    Daddy Dirk is taking care of liplocking with Jane
+    Looks like everything is okay
+    One step left and we're headed to Jake
+    Ya better hold on, because this thing is so fast
+    Holy shit I'm cool
+
+    (Did I tell you how cool I am? Cuz I am so fucking awesome.)
+    (It's time for [Unintelligible])
+    Grab on to my fucking skateboard, I'm so
+    Cool, I saved the day, you're welcome watch this

-    Gears spinning inside your head, silently

-    Encase the heart that still beats fast
-    Tighten screws and loosen wires
-    And build a soul not made of glass

-    It's an easy process if you're not seeing

-    Put 'em all back together with life and hope
-    But you lost those 400 years ago
-
-    An easy process if you're not believing
-    There's a virus in your system but the trojan is deceiving
-    And you find that you'd do anything, anything
-    If your heart said go and do anything, oh
-
-    Running throughout every vein, electricity
-    And you're running out of fuel but you'll repair yourself at sea
-    Talking to the ghost you can barely see
-    But they left you all with nothing, but nothing's all you need so

+    im not redoing my other song ([[track:bolins-cereal-journey|bolin's cereal journey]]) because even though i dont like that song either i dont see much "couldve been better/more interesting" in it either. i mean its already hard enough to make [[artist:splitsuns|splitsuns]] better and i failed in that but at least made a maybe more interesting rack. its still a minute long track i made in an hour but my mind tells me this time the track isnt complete shit.
+
+    in any case this is the first actual song i made and finished in just over two months so yay for that. it was a good musical exercise

+
+    So this song has kind of an upsetting backstory to it, when i was working on it one of the plugins crashed and basically deleted the entire file, that's why i wasn't able to mix this properly. It was also supposed to be used on [[album:stlap2|STLaP2]] but after what happened i decided not to add it. I hope you guys still enjoy it and thanks so much to Vilros Safron on HSA for commissioning me!

-    Sometimes I think about the stars
-    And Mercury and Mars
-    Knowin' I'll get to go someday
-    But then they finally come around
-    So high above the ground
-    And the feeling goes away
-    I used to wait for something more
-    To walk in through the door
-    Something I never thought I'd do
-    I guess I figured that by now
-    I'd have some kind of plan
-    Really the opposite is true
-    And it doesn't matter just how long
-    That the dream is s'posed to be
-    Cause I wanna wake up anyway
-    If they knew what I could do
-    The things that I've been through
-    They wouldn't make me have to stay
-    Running away from all my fears
-    And stopping all the tears
-    Things I was never meant to do
-    I hope you'll understand someday
-    I can't afford to stay
-    Clearly my waiting days are through
