Everything's dark, except for the stars above, but as we found out, they were really fireflies trapped in the clouds. This was one of the concepts I latched onto rather hard with this piece, the mass of sparkling and blinking above John as he traipsed about. I've been lucky enough to live in a more rural area for most of my life, and being able to watch the stars was always great, so I could only ever imagine what LOWAS's clouds looked like. @@ -186,7 +186,7 @@ Art Tags: Referenced Tracks: - Penumbra Phantasm Commentary: |- - <i>Erik Scheele:</i> + <i>Erik Scheele:</i> (booklet commentary) This is definitely one of the older tracks on the record, a cover of [[Penumbra Phantasm]] by Toby Fox aka Radiation. At the time of writing this, that track still hasn't been released, but that didn't stop me from making a cover of it. And then re-making that cover, since the first one was kind of crap. @@ -320,7 +320,7 @@ Commentary: |- This is also the only piece on the album that doesn't have a specific event to go along with it. Instead, I went for where it appeared in the comic when placing it, and see it as more of a small interlude. The intermission between Act 1 and Act 2 of a musical, if you will. The art is meant to go along with this as well, a sort of non-canon get-together of the first set of trolls and kids we know, and I can imagine them playing this record while they chill. - <i>Killian Ng:</i> ([Tumblr](https://viivus.tumblr.com/post/29518836682/i-was-asked-to-draw-some-things-for-jits-solo), excerpt) + <i>Killian Ng:</i> ([Tumblr](https://viivus.tumblr.com/post/29518836682/i-was-asked-to-draw-some-things-for-jits-solo), excerpt, 8/15/2012) The art for the ‘unlabelled’ track is like a continuation of [[album:one-year-older|the cover]]. From what I remember [[artist:erik-scheele|Jit]] told me that all of the other tracks refer directly to John at some point in Homestuck, but this one did not. And it’s kind of in the middle of the album so we put that one down as a kind of 'intermission’ track. And by intermission, we apparently mean party with all the characters taking a break from the plot, enjoying cake and not trying to murder each other. Also, the gramophone’s a reference to the page the track appeared on. @@ -504,11 +504,11 @@ MIDI Project Files: Files: - 'Another Chance - Unknown (piano).mid' Commentary: |- - <i>Erik Scheele:</i> (album artist, commentary booklet) + <i>Erik Scheele:</i> (album artist, booklet commentary) BONUS TRACK TIME!
