The latter half of the song is scavenged from an older piece, that never saw the light of day. Texturally, acoustic guitars, high strings, droning pads, and a bit of brass all make me think "DESERT." The scale does most of the also desert themed, work establishing that, though. I wanted the song to be upbeat and include two parts. The first serves as a "conversation theme" to be played when the exiles are communicating with the players and "exile action" which, is unlikely to be heard by a player, but would accompany something more intense happening years in the future. @@ -408,6 +428,8 @@ URLs: - https://youtu.be/WvVeYdEEn-w Cover Artists: - Phosphorescence +Art Tags: +- Prospit Commentary: |- <i>Veritas Unae:</i> These [[track:lavender-lullaby|two lulling lullabies]] were rather fun to write...

The first thing he notices is the throbbing headache. He feels groggy, and his entire body feels heavy, as if he's been sleeping for ages, so long it's forgotten how to move. There's something in the back of his head, something that sounds like white noise, or static, or strange whispers. He dismisses them for the moment; it's probably the headache talking, he thinks. The second thing he notices, as he forces himself to sit up, is how everything is purple. The walls of his room are lined with violet and indigo, and even his sheets and his pajamas (he didn't remember putting these on before going to sleep; heck, he didn't even remember having them) are similar shades. This must be a dream, he thinks, and yet he is unable to shake the feeling that this is terribly, frighteningly real. The third thing he notices is how dark and quiet it is. Faint light streams in through the window, from a blue planet far away. It's thin and wispy, as if shining from behind a veil. The eerie silence makes his skin crawl. He strides over to the window, and looks up, towards the endless void. There is nothing there, and yet it beckons him, and he is nearly compelled to leap into the abyss. Tearing his gaze away from the vast nothingness, he peers downwards instead - and there it is, stretching out before him in all its glory: Derse, the planet in shadow.</i> @@ -540,6 +571,7 @@ Art Tags: - WV - DD - CD +- Derse Commentary: |- <i>Catboss:</i> The Dersites have always struck me as a colorful bunch. We see a range of personalities, from the cold, calculating Droog to the bumbling Deuce, the goofy Vagabond and the highstrung Renegade. Also, with the possible exception of Jack, they don't really seem that evil or malicious to me. If you'll forgive my use of the term, they seem like Punch Clock Villains, just out to do their job, like the soldiers of any army. That job unfortunately includes the extermination of Prospit. That doesn't necessarily mean they're the bad guys here per se! From a musical standpoint, the Dersites have also been very much linked with jazz for me, especially since the Midnight Crew album. It just seems to fit; they're dark, but not really evil. I didn't entirely subscribe to the Midnight Crew's "dark jazz," though - they're more diverse than that. So I went with a jazzy piece with different elements that hopefully capture the different personalities of the Dersites we've seen so far - lighthearted piano for the Drolls and smooth jazz for the Dignitaries. @@ -595,6 +627,9 @@ URLs: - https://youtu.be/flfyUUpN050 Cover Artists: - Esabelle Ryngin +Art Tags: +- Veil +- Skaia Commentary: |- <i>Charles Neudorf:</i> When I started working on the Veil theme, I initially had the idea to combine a song about the Veil with a song about the labs. The idea was to have two separate sections: a calm, soothing ambient piece and a harsh electronic piece. That idea ended up not really coming to fruition due to various reasons, so I just settled on writing a piece solely focused on the veil, and I'm still very proud of how it turned out! I really think that as I worked on it, I gained a much richer understanding of how compositions are made, and for better or worse, it has deeply impacted how I look at music. @@ -658,7 +693,9 @@ Cover Artists: Art Tags: - WK - Carapacians +- Battlefield - 'cw: blood' +- 'cw: corpse' Referenced Tracks: - On Golden Dreams [Prospit] Commentary: |- @@ -683,6 +720,8 @@ URLs: - https://youtu.be/FqiXFY2Kubc Cover Artists: - Nyanface +Art Tags: +- Battlefield Commentary: |- <i>Brad Griffin:</i> [The end of the world<br> @@ -730,6 +769,8 @@ URLs: - https://youtu.be/LRgpQv4M61g Cover Artists: - melodiousDiscord +Art Tags: +- Battlefield Referenced Tracks: - Emerald Icarus [Green Sun] - CumuloSeerus [Oracle Clouds] @@ -744,6 +785,8 @@ URLs: - https://youtu.be/4-h0cq--6dU Cover Artists: - Tavia Morra +Art Tags: +- Skaia Referenced Tracks: - SBURBan Prelude [Main Menu] Commentary: |- @@ -765,6 +808,7 @@ Cover Artists: - Tavia Morra Art Tags: - Carapacians +- Battlefield - 'cw: blood' - 'cw: corpse' Commentary: |- @@ -785,6 +829,10 @@ URLs: - https://youtu.be/jQxXQ0xMDJg Cover Artists: - Toe +Art Tags: +- Skaia +- Veil +- Prospit Commentary: |- <i>Solatrus:</i> Skaiaward has had a pretty strange development.
