This was actually a remake of a midi I made years ago intended for part of an RPG a friend was making, until the RPG was cancelled. It's mostly the same, except that I went back and made it more jazzy (added saxophone and a swing rhythm). The original title of it was "Seriousness". @@ -40,7 +41,7 @@ Artist: Mark Hadley Duration: 2:12 URLs: - https://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/hearts-flush-2 -- https://youtu.be/nb7PoT9w6Tcg +- https://youtu.be/nb7PoT9w6Tc Commentary: Mark Hadley: My favorite of the MC ones I wrote.

Like Moonshine it still has a soft spot in my heart. It’s not as compositionally impressive in my opinion, but it was the first in a long line of quirky tracks I have made for Homestuck. The vibraphone and electric organ were incredibly fun to use, and the whole thing ended up having an Elfman/Kirkhope vibe to it. Now, I don’t have synesthesia, but for some reason whenever I think about this song, I think “green”. Just some useless trivia for you. @@ -75,7 +76,7 @@ Artist: Mark Hadley Duration: 2:33 URLs: - https://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/ante-matter-2 -- https://youtu.be/2uYFtCSxoPkg +- https://youtu.be/2uYFtCSxoPk Commentary: Mark Hadley: It's hard to find things to say about this one.

They were actually made based on a short fruity loop that The Big Man Andrew did, called haunt.wav or haunt.mp3 or something like that. A jam on his theme, logically, would therefore be called "hauntjam," with the opportunity for naming puns including "hauntjelly." His theme appears mostly unchanged as the bassline for the first part of the pieces. At this point in terms of instrumentation, we were still mostly striving for faithfulness to the canon Midnight Crew "band," as can be seen in the Extras page wherein the MC fill 'em with midnight (bottom), so Hauntjam employs trombone, string bass, piano, clarinet, and sax (I forget which because I've lost the file and am not a band person, but I think it was alto). From there on, it was fairly straightforward to write a haunting refrain and then solos for each instrument. I will admit I got a little writerblock'd for the second part, which was sort of a brief modulation to the dominant, so it sounds a little strange. But it still has its own little charm, with the almost annoying trill put in for a spooky ghost-like effect. In Hauntjam, Bowman did some good stuff with bringing out moving parts in the first refrain. In Hauntjelly, Xerxes emphasizes the spookiness by changing instruments for more electric organ. @@ -109,14 +110,14 @@ Artist: Robert J!

I so wish we had done more with this concept.
