I decided to try out some of the same instruments used in [[track:stronger-monsters]] (from Undertale) as well, which at that point I thought "what the heck, let's just make a full-on remix of this". Fun fact: I was initially following along [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|PotatoBoss']] [Versus recreation video on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYfZBrReslY), before I knew who he was. ---- -Track: This Baby's Timeless! -Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Duration: 2:12 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXSj_gIVkEY -Cover Artists: -- wumby -# Art Tags: -# - Trolls -Referenced Tracks: -- Miasmic Decay -Lyrics: |- - ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND SEVENTEEN YEARS AGO... - roughly one million babies were born in the united states alone - one of these babies - looked like tensei from the homestuck music team - this is the story about that - his name - CHRIS -Commentary: |- - Pascal van den Bos: (composer, booklet commentary) - - I made this song as a birthday gift to [[artist:rowyn-berlan]], i wanted to kind of parody [[album:the-baby-is-you|"The Baby is You"]] since we had just finished ["The Baby is STLaP2"](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqi0iMdsva_wMBDC1dZgYmg--sJgtXtmG) and it seemed funny to me to make that for them. The only song I referenced was [[track:miasmic-decay|"Miasmic Decay"]] because Rowyn made it and that would make the song still fit in the album because it's still a remix of a song in the album. Also DVS-Saxophone is the best instrument, change my mind. ---- -Track: Prismatic Season -Artists: -- Beau Brian -Duration: 4:51 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3Q0Z6TgNks -Cover Artists: -- MarbleMint -Art Tags: -- Vriska -- Gate -- LoMaT -Referenced Tracks: -- Crystalanthemums -- Explore -- Penumbra Phantasm -Commentary: |- - Beau Brian: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This [[track:crystalanthemums|Crystal]] remix is actually my first attempt at a song vvith entirely digital-sounding instruments (I.e. savvs, skvvares, D>S sax and the like) but it surBeau Brian: (composer, booklet commentary, quirk-free) - - This [[track:crystalanthemums|Crystal]] remix is actually my first attempt at a song with entirely digital-sounding instruments (I.e. saws, squares, DVS sax and the like) but it survived the dreadful soundtest so.. - - Anyway, it’s mostly a Crystal remix simply because nearly every time I make something I can feel this song trying to inch it’s way in there, so I scratched that itch and gave it it’s own song to try to hold it back. - - It didn’t work. ---- -Track: Rough and Jungle -Artists: -- Caldw3ll -Duration: 2:10 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2Im7mGpFj8 -Cover Artists: -- KiddleScribbles -Art Tags: -- BK -# - Red Miles -# - Queen's Ring -- Skaia -Referenced Tracks: -- Doctor -- Sburban Jungle -- Unite Synchronization -Commentary: |- - Pascal van den Bos: (album team, booklet commentary) - - Rough and Jungle puts an interesting spin on [[track:sburban-jungle|sburban jungle]] and [[track:doctor|doctor]] which compliment each other quite well in this arrangement.

So basically i took [[track:beatdown-strider-style|Beatdown]], some upbeat drums, Earthbound beach sounds, \*DVS SAX\* and some other cool stuff. I ended up with a pretty cool result, it was basically exactly what i wanted. Near the end i also sampled the original Beatdown for a cool effect, and also at the end because i wanted to make it sound as if you were sitting on the beach, listening to Beatdown through a small radio. The Vriska references where just kinda there because they sound good with the rest, they are in squarewave to match Dave’s intrumentation. And lastly the name is also obviously a reference to Beatdown. ---- -Track: Celestic Aviators -Artists: -- Caelan Kier -Duration: 3:56 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nC2ZxZREPU -Cover Artists: -- animmania -Art Tags: -- Jack Noir -- PM -# - Queen's Ring -# - Regisword -# - (PM's sword) -- Green Sun -- Horrorterrors -- 'cw: blood' # light, arm -Commentary: |- - Caelan Kier: (composer, booklet commentary) - - I listen to a lot of prog-metal-that’s-also-very-melodic, a good example is Sithu Aye, who is the main inspiration behind this song, I love the way he keeps this melodic flow throughout pretty much every song and has like every other instrument that’s not the lead dedicated to just backing up this melody; So I thought it would be a good idea to turn this style into chiptune. It’s different than my usual chiptune style, and I guess that just kinda developed as I made the song, but honestly I like the way this sounds more than my normal style so I’ll probably make more songs like this. I wanna say more but that’s p much it lol. ---- -Track: Moonstruck (Vinyl) -Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Duration: 3:18 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhgtEiIHW4s -Cover Artists: -- Sketchoodles -Art Tags: -- Dirk -- Derse -- Carapacians -Referenced Tracks: -- Moonsetter -Commentary: |- - Pascal van den Bos: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This song is a redone version of an old Lo-Fi Hip-Hop remix i made of the song [[track:moonsetter|“Moonsetter”]] by Toby Fox. I didn’t like the old one i made but since i was getting so much positive feedback on it i decided to remake it for this album. It turned out way better than the old version in my opinion and i hope everyone who listened to the old version agrees with me. ---- -Track: Fireflies and Clockwork -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Artists: -- apatheticPianist -Duration: 2:53 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6NQCrX6yjI -Cover Artists: -- doctorcorby -Art Tags: -- Dave -# - Fireflies -- LoHaC -# - LoWaS (possibly?) -Referenced Tracks: -- Candles and Clockwork -- Beatdown (Strider Style) -- Doctor -- Upward Movement (Dave Owns) -- Penumbra Phantasm -- Showtime (Original Mix) -Commentary: |- - apatheticPianist: (composer, booklet commentary) - - Tbh this’s one of my fav songs I’ve ever made? For a few reasons, one being that admittedly it was made in GarageBand and yet isn’t (totally) awful-sounding instrument-wise, and another being that swapping the “main” instruments of Dave’s and John’s motifs worked out really well, imo, and finally cuz it’s from a transitional period right before I got better software and so sort of marks a personal turning point on the path towards becoming a better composer? It’s a pretty nice jam, regardless of all that, and [[track:spacetime-continuum|I might wind up doing]] either a remaster of it or a version with Jade and Rose for STLaP3 - hope y’all enjoy listening! ---- -Track: Distortion Navigator -Artists: -- Caelan Kier -Duration: 4:14 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Y-MXug_oA4 -Cover Artists: -- starcrossedAnalyst -Art Tags: -- Sollux -- 'cw: blood' -Commentary: - Caelan Kier: (composer, booklet commentary) - - So this was made back when [[album:alternate-hues-and-melodies|AHaM]] was being made, pretty close to it being released the guy who was making the Sollux song didn't finish it for reasons I can't be bothered remembering, and since the position for the Sollux song was open I was like "damn I wanna do the Sollux song because Sollux is cool". So I made the first melody you hear in [[Distortion Navigator]], but before I could do anymore we had to release the album like right then and there, so I didn't get to finish it. Then I just turned it into the full Sollux song I wanted back then and released it here on STLaP 2 instead. ---- -Track: Thread the Needle -Artists: -- Frost Carter -Duration: 2:15 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBEjpgRLe54 -Cover Artists: -- artist:cookie-josh -Art Tags: -- Rose -- Underlings -- Cats -# - Thorns of Oglogoth -Commentary: |- - Pascal van den Bos: (album team, booklet commentary) - - The use of violins in this song really capture the feel of rose early on in HomeStuck especially as a strife theme which is backed up by the amazing art accompanying it. Overall Frosty did a great job on the composition and instrumentation on Thread the Needle. ---- -Track: Rebirth without Elegance, True is Resolve; Young is the GAME -Artists: -- Beau Brian -Duration: 9:10 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYpA6W91uIs -Cover Artists: -- KiddleScribbles -Art Tags: -- Gate -# - Reckoning -Commentary: |- - Beau Brian: (composer, booklet commentary) - - A requiem for those not lucky enough to surBeau Brian: (composer, booklet commentary, quirk-free) - - A requiem for those not lucky enough to survive Sburb. One cannot keep a gentle touch and survive. Rebirth, without elegance. They must steel themselves, and know what to do; why to do it. True is resolve. After all, the game is young. R.E.T.R.Y. GAME. - - The length is actually a bit of an accident on my end. Sometimes there are just so many intervals and melodies that need their part, and each one of those need *some* kind of transition. Not sure if it shows or not, but this is certainly the track I worked hardest on, and ironically I made my longest track at a point where we had no more room on the album! ---- -Section: Disc 2 ---- -Track: ~~Disc 2~~ -Directory: disc2-stlap2 -Additional Names: -- Name: >- - Disc 2 - Annotation: >- - [YouTube title](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAbIrLkJQS8) -Artists: -- Rowyn Berlan -Duration: 0:34 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAbIrLkJQS8 -Cover Artists: -- Knil -# Art Tags: -# - Beat Mesa -Commentary: |- - Rowyn Berlan: (composer, booklet commentary) - - Got bored one day and wanted to write a quick little song that turned into Disc 2... that's pretty much it lmao ---- -Track: Insurrection -Directory: insurrection-stlap2 -Artists: -- Caelan Kier -Duration: 4:04 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2sQq7lciCI -Cover Artists: -- KiddleScribbles -Art Tags: -- Jade -- Becquerel -# - Lotus -- Frog Temple -- Earth -- Veil -Referenced Tracks: -- track:mutiny -- track:mutiny-remix-caelan-kier -Commentary: |- - Caelan Kier: (composer, booklet commentary) - - I remember like thinking that [my Mutiny remix](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3znbbnDOChY) could be totally better, so like I only made this a while after that was uploaded (that's why it sounds so much like my old stuff). I didn't even plan for the song to be said remix, I was just bored in FL Studio and placed down the [[track:mutiny|Mutiny]] melody in there and somehow just kept going until it turned into a full song. I was gonna put it in [[album:stable-time-loops-and-paradoxes|STLaP 1]], but then didn't because [[track:fetch-the-bullet|there was already a Mutiny remix]], so first chance I got I dunked it into STLaP 2. ---- -Track: Lust -Directory: lust-stlap2 -Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Duration: 4:03 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81M9yLFPl4k -Cover Artists: -- seacode -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Art Tags: -- Rose -- Dave -- Roxy -- Dirk -- Derse -- Prospit -Commentary: |- - Pascal van den Bos: (composer, booklet commentary) - - A while ago, i worked on an album called [[album:solar-sessions|“Solar Sessions”]] hosted by “Handshake Collaborations”. On this is a song called [[track:earth-solar-sessions|“Earth”]] by psithurist. I was extremely inspired by this song because it’s so good, so i tried to make something in that style.

Candlelit originally started out as [[track:candlelit-contemplation-beta|a shitty PXTone cover]] that’s on my YouTube Channel (you’ve been warned) and well after a while I grew unhappy with it. One day I got the stupid idea to reverse the song and boy am I glad I did that. I decided to try and make a remix of Candles and Clockwork that would sound just as good reversed and well what’s there sure is something. (By the way all the reversed bits are actually from the original PXTone version which I thought was a cool little reference) ---- -Track: CITH - Beatdown (Strider in the House) -Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Contributors: -- Michael Parker (Dave) -- QuantumBun (Vriska) -Duration: 1:00 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEIhetsdJzA -Cover Artists: -- Kiddlescribbles -Art Tags: -# - Cory (CITH) -- Dirk -- Lil Cal -# - Dave (archetype) -# - Unbreakable Katana -# - Dave's home -- Earth -Referenced Tracks: -- Cory in the House (Theme Song) -- Beatdown (Strider Style) -- Versus -- Upward Movement (Dave Owns) -Lyrics: |- - [Dave]: Woo!

One day i was hanging out on the Bowman Discord server and we were just kinda talking, so then Michael mentions that him and some friends are making a Strider version of the vocals to [[track:cory-in-the-house-theme-song|the Cory in the House opening]], and i was like, ohshit i can make a remix of the theme that uses Strider motifs if you want :eyes:. So i made it and i named the instrumental version CITH Beatdown as a reference to [[track:wsw-beatdown|WSW Beatdown]]. Later the vocals were added and it became Strider in the House. Thanks for making this Michael your Dave voice is epic lmao. - - Michael Parker: (Dave, booklet commentary) - - This entire concept started as a joke between me and my friends, “what if you took Dave Strider and put him in Cory in the House”. It was a meme, a dumb idea I did and even drew art for. We came up with a whole scenario and description of “the show”. Then we were like “what if we made a parody of an intro”, and I contacted PotatoBoss and proposed the concept. I was honestly shocked when he agreed to make an instrumental remix of Cory in the House. Over the span of around a month or two, we made the music, got myself and my friend to record the lyrics, and then made it a video on youtube. Now it’s making an appearance on this album, which boggles my mind. I voice Dave Strider, while my friend Bun sings as Vriska. Making this was extremely fun, since I have no musical talent whatsoever, but enjoy working with PMT on their various projects. Everyone in PMT is so talented, and as cheesy as it sounds, it’s an honor to be able to contribute to this album and work with them. To be honest, this shitpost is probably my magnum opus, but I am perfectly fine with that. - - Unknown Artist|[[artist:unknown-artist|Unknown]], but maybe [[artist:quantumbun]]: (booklet commentary) - - STRIDER IS IN MY HOUSE.

Simply put, it was the main beginning bit, ‘cept it was at a slower tempo, and sounded decently worse than it does now. I had it lying around when I joined the PMT, and decided it has potential. So, I took it, looked closely at how [[Black]] actually played, and made it into a more fully-fledged remix. Can I say it’s my best work? Probably not. But I would, at the very least, hope that it’s decently enjoyable to listen to if anything. - - Funnily enough, when I uploaded the song to SoundCloud (where it suffered in quality from the upload, unfortunately) I mentioned in the description that it was likely to be my last Homestuck song/remix. Apparently, I was lying to everyone including myself, since I not only made another song for the STLaP2 album, but I’ve got a larger project in the works... a project being made in the most unorthodox ways, but being created nonetheless. ---- -Track: Spritely Gardener -Artists: -- Rainy -Duration: 3:41 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOyg1dtrTgI -Cover Artists: -- Naturestormz -Art Tags: -- Jade -Referenced Tracks: -- Spritely Gardener (Beta) -- Jadesprite -- The Beginning of Something Really Excellent # listed in booklet -- Blue Atom -- Softly -Commentary: |- - Rainy: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This song has a special place in my heart because it my first homestuck remix. I started this song months before I joined the PMT and I remember doing it out of boredom. I wanted to make remix a song the no one had done before, so I decided to remix the first half of the unreleased song [[track:jadesprite|"Jadesprite."]] The [[track:spritely-gardener-beta|original demo]] of the song was like 30 seconds long and wasn't very good imo. Joining the team gave me the impetus I needed to expand upon my original demo and finish the song.

Since i always wanted to remix Davesprite i decided to just lay down the main melody too and remix the song. This song probably took longest to make, not because it was harder than the rest, but because it kept being edited. The first time was because i messed up some notes and pitching, the i removed some parts for no reason which i ended up adding back later. Then i got some disc scratch samples from [[artist:erik-scheele|Erik Scheele]] that sounded really cool so i added those in, that took a while to get decent too. And still with this version i’m not 100% satisfied but it’ll do. And the name is “Davesprite 3” because there’s an unused song by Erik Scheele called [[track:davesprite2|“Davesprite 2”]] so i just followed up after that. ---- -Track: Between Mediums -Artists: -- Rainy -Duration: 3:24 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRv70kGqEgI -Cover Artists: -- Knil -Art Tags: -# - Sburb -Referenced Tracks: -- Freefall -- Cascade (Beta) -- track:interstellar-p-s -Commentary: |- - Rainy: (composer, booklet commentary) - - I Wanted to see what would happen if a mashed up [[track:cascade-beta|cascade]] and [[track:freefall|freefall]].

At first this song sounded really different because i had used sounds from games like Goemon on Nintendo 64 and Earthbound, then i tried to use more orchestral sounds and it just sounded way better.

I tried my best to create an [[artist:robert-j-lake|RJ Lake]] style remix, chopping up various sections of the song and stitching them together. I even added a reference to [[track:perfect-cascade-of-the-heart|“Perfect Cascade of the heart”]] by Tensei. I’m pretty satisfied with how this turned out and I hope you enjoy.

Not my fault for doing so - there was a deadline on these. - - So this song wasn’t planned to be in this album at all. Instead, a more ambitious project of mine was going to be in it’s place, one that’s more related to cherubs and such. However, it became increasingly apparent that, if I were to try and finish it in a timely manner, it would likely turn out as a - excuse me when I say this - shit pile on fire. That’s to say, terribly. So, I’m reserving it for the next album, one where I can have time to acclimate to new software and actually make a good product. - - In it’s place, we have this sort of Descend/Upward Movement remix that I managed to cook up in the spare time away from my main PC. It turned out alright, but according to [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|Mr. P-Boss]], equalization on it was quite poor. It was an understanble and true statement - the software I used for it wasn’t really made to equalize. - - Because of this fact, he actually offered to take the midi file of the song and the audio file and convert it into a more equalized, and hopefully better sounding, version. As of writing this, I’ve yet to hear anything about it though. This description will be changed if he does end up following through. If he doesn’t, then what you’ll be hearing is my version of it, and this description will be left unchanged. In any case, I hope it’s a good listening for the ears. ---- -Track: Pascal "Don't call me Starkemeister" van den Bos and TimelessHeir's DX collab (gone wrong(gone sexual)) definitive edition -Additional Names: -- Name: >- - PotatoBoss' and TimelessHeir's DX collab - Annotation: >- - [YouTube title](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTwRgtfk4tk) -- Name: >- - Pascal “Don’t call me Starkemeister” van den Bos and TimelessHeir’s DX collab (gone wrong)(gone sexual) definitive edition - Annotation: >- - name in booklet -Artists: -- Rowyn Berlan -- Pascal van den Bos -Duration: 9:36 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTwRgtfk4tk -Cover Artists: -- Knil -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Referenced Tracks: -- Miasmic Decay -- track:vexation-paradox-music-team -- track:proletariat-paradox-music-team -- track:avarice-paradox-music-team -- Static Dust -- Sunsetter -- The Lemonsnout Turnabout -- Hate You -- It's Safe Now -- Walk-Stab-Walk (R&E) -- Crystalanthemums -- Time on My Side -- Cascade (Beta) -- Penumbra Phantasm -- Liquid Negrocity # credited as black -- Oppa Toby Style -- track:lust-stlap2 -- Versus -Commentary: |- - Pascal van den Bos: (co-composer, booklet commentary) - - Rowyn and i wanted to do a collab song for a while and here we finally got to it.

I produced Rowyn’s part so it would fit better with mine, after that i started working on my part, i just tried to make another song that had a lot of leitmotifs in it. I was also really into Hotline Miami at the time so it has [[track:its-safe-now|some of that]] in it too. I’m also proud of the [[track:oppa-toby-style|Oppa Toby Style]] reference since i haven’t seen many songs that use that anywhere.

Originally this song was going to have a bunch more references to Jane songs (I.E [[track:cyan-beast|Cyan Beast]], [[track:jane-dargason|Jane Dargason]], Etc), but I decided against this. The reason for this is that I felt like most of the songs I did for this album did not have enough of my own original composition and relied too heavily on references. So I decided to merge the references I had already planned with some original writing. I kept the references to [[track:first-steps|“First Steps”]] by David Ellis and added a reference to an unreleased song called [[track:crock-n-roll|Crock N’ Roll]] by RJ Lake.

In short I wanted to make a strife theme for the denizens but as stated earlier I lost interest. Then there’s Rainy my savior, he told me that he wanted to finish the song for stlap 2 if there was room and I honestly love the direction he took the song. - - Rainy: (co-composer, booklet commentary) - - So I lied about Lifesaver being my last song stlap 2, sorry. Basically, when Rowyn said she could not finish the original demo of Beastly Skirmish, I decided to take upon myself and finish it. I liked what I had heard from that initial and thought it would be a shame for it not to get finished. At the time there were no more slots on the album, so I was gonna put the arrangement on ice until [[album:stlap3|STLaP 3]]. To cut a very long story short, we wound up needing and extra song and I was more than happy to oblige as it gave me an excuse finish this.

And also probably some Vriska vs Bec Noir by the end, too, given how heroic-sounding and grandiose the ending gets... which probably means that “Of the Grim” also refers to how that’s a doomed timeline, and so definitely grim in a completely different sense? This was all definitely very intentional, and definitely not a complete coincidence. - - Either way, this’s probably the best song I’ve made so far and I’m super hyped to share it with y’all! ---- -Track: Play the Rain -Artists: -- Monobrow -Duration: 3:47 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f6asOx076A -Cover Artists: -- siedlag -Art Tags: -- Rose -- Rose's mom -- 'cw: alcohol' -Referenced Tracks: -- track:aggrieve -- track:aggrieve-violin-refrain -- Chorale for Jaspers -- Crystal Castle Final -- Rose's Death -- Endless Climb -- Doctor -- Lotus (Bloom) -- Dance of Thorns -- track:rain -Commentary: |- - Monobrow: (composer, booklet commentary) - - I was enthusiastically approached by [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|PotatoBoss]] a couple years ago to make music for his projects...

One of our artists, [[artist:sketchoodles|Sketchoodles]], was also [working on this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEtC2WWffHI) and i decided to check it out. I ended up making this track for the credit sequence that would play after the animation. I also added it to this album because i wanted to officially release it on 4/13 as well. This is basically the track i made specifically to celebrate Homestuck’s 10th birthday, so thanks for being awesome, Homestuck. ---- -Track: A Happy Ending -Artists: -- Rainy -Duration: 10:34 -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsg9sPO4Kl4 -Cover Artists: -- KiddleScribbles -Art Tags: -- John -- Rose -- Dave -- Jade -- Earth -Referenced Tracks: -- Mother (Piano) # credited as mother -- Crystalanthemums -- Candles and Clockwork -- Endless Climb -- Clockwork Apocalypse -- Doctor -Commentary: |- - Rainy: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This song's commentary is going to get a little serious. After doing [[track:spritely-gardener|Spritely Gardener]], I wanted to do another song for the album. I had a bunch of stuff started but I just never had the energy to finish them. One of the ideas was a massive multi movement homestuck medley referencing all the beta kids' land theme. But like the other WIPs, I couldn't bring myself to work on it more. This went on until some time in early November. In November, I learned that [[artist:buzinkai|George Buzinkai]], Creator of homestuck songs like [[track:doctor|"Doctor"]] and [[track:endless-climb|"Endless Climb"]], had passed away. I was felt a profound sense of grief at her death. Some time passed, and I wanted to do something to commemorate her memory. So I decided to give my old project file another shot and that how "A Happy Ending" was created. I wanted to create something that embodied how much Homestuck and it's musicians meant to me. Is it perfect? No, it has a lot of issues and is overly long (Sorry [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|Pb]]). But I think it is something conveys the monumental impact that homestuck had on my life. ---- -Section: Bonus tracks ---- -Track: Caring, Compassion, Kindness.

I later reused it on my shitty solo album for god knows what reason, and now it has made it's way into [[album:desynced-vol-1|Desynced]] and STLaP 3. This version of Escapade was supposed to be a song about a good guy version of Jack Noir which is why it sounds so much like [[track:black]], later though when I just joined the Desynced music team, Emily said they would need a song like Escapade for something later on in the comic so i just offered to let her use it and thats pretty much why its also in there now.

Rainy: (composer, booklet commentary) - - Alright so I have quite a bit to say about this track. A last year [[group:the-paradox-music-team|the PMT]] put out [our earthbound album](https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/album/whats-your-favorite-song-earthbound-2019), which was a fun little break from our usual homestuck music thing. I wrote a song on that album called [[track:diamond-dust|"Diamond Dust"]] that quickly became one of my favorite songs I had written at the time. Shortly after the album came out I had the desire make a proper follow up to that track. Sometime later, I was improving on the piano and got this really nice sounding chord progression that made me think of snow. I was looking for an idea at the time for STLaP 3 at the time, so I made this my last song for the album. During the process of writing this song, I had the idea of remixing "Diamond Dust" into this, effectively making Snowfall the a sequel to that song. Overall I'm pretty proud how this turned out and I'm glad I got to make the follow up I wanted. ---- -Track: Unite Synchronization - Spad3s Glitch Hop Remix -Artists: -- Spad3s -Duration: 3:17 -URLs: -- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/unite-synchronization-spad3s-glitch-hop-remix -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEGAVLK66QE -Cover Artists: -- Siedlag -Referenced Tracks: -- Unite Synchronization ---- -Track: The Outer Veil -Artists: -- Chromaphantasia -Duration: 2:44 -URLs: -- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/the-outer-veil -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ_ObBwpE4o -Cover Artists: -- doctorcorby -Cover Art File Extension: jpg ---- -Track: Color of the Ocean -Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Duration: 4:13 -URLs: -- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/color-of-the-ocean -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgcNhQhehX4 -Cover Artists: -- doctorcorby -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Referenced Tracks: -- Love You (Feferi's Theme) ---- -Track: Threshold -Directory: threshold-stlap3 -Always Reference By Directory: true -Artists: -- Beau Brian -Duration: 2:32 -URLs: -- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/threshold -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lFishQG2I4 -Cover Artists: -- bisectro -Referenced Tracks: -- Corridors of Time # credited to Delldongo Fabrice(!?) -- Arisen Anew -- Clockwork Melody -- Gentle Heat ---- -Section: Disc 3 ---- -Track: ~~Disc 3~~ -Directory: disc3-stlap3 -Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Duration: 0:28 -URLs: -- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/disc-3-3 -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdUGP1qyWnY -Cover Artists: -- doctorcorby -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Referenced Tracks: -- Distortion Navigator ---- -Track: Everlasting Hope -Artists: -- Rowyn Berlan -Duration: 2:51 -URLs: -- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/everlasting-hope -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_hB-wzPjFQ -Cover Artists: -- animmania -Referenced Tracks: -- Perxenic Highlands ---- -Track: Moonsetter -

Also the chiptune breakdown in the middle is supposed to reference [[track:showtime-original-mix|the original Strife! theme for dad]]. So later with a bit of saxophone it worked! I think it came out pretty well, and i think this is what you'd hear whenever you walk into the kitchen when Dad is baking. ---- -Track: Penumbra Phantasm (Frosty Style) -Additional Names: -- Name: Penumbra Phantasm (Frosty Edition) - Annotation: original name -Artists: -- Frost Carter -Cover Artists: -- melodic-co -Art Tags: -- John -Duration: '2:40' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyvbG6L0IDU -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Referenced Tracks: -- track:penumbra-phantasm -Commentary: |- - Frost Carter: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This song has been in the works for a very long time. The better part of a year, in fact. It went through a LOT of different iterations and versions (at one point even being part of an Undertale fan game that was unfortunately canceled) before landing where it is now. I finally decided to finish it and let the little bird fly for this album. Fun fact: It was originally titled "Penumbra Phantasm (Frosty Edition)," but then, thanks to a typo from [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|PotatoBoss]], the "Edition" changed to "Style," and, honestly, I prefer it this way. Go figure, there would be one last change to the song before it was finally finished. ---- -Track: Solicide -Artists: -- Caelan Kier -Cover Artists: -- doctorcorby -Art Tags: -- Rose -- Green Sun -Duration: '2:59' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUUpyZPWbew -Referenced Tracks: -- Flare -- track:beatdown-strider-style -- Time on My Side -- Aggrieve -- track:upward-movement-dave-owns -Sampled Tracks: -- Derse Dreamers -Commentary: |- - Caelan Kier: (composer, booklet commentary) - - Y'know that feeling you get when you've been told by gods to blow up a sun twice the size of a universe? well if you have, i think it'd feel something like Solicide. So I was just spittin' some phat-tunes-y'all, y'know, some chill Dave song, when I was like... "Nah, this is just too spooky for Dave, but maybe spooky enough for Rose?" so I changed the idea from a song about Dave & Time to a song about Rose's (and Dave's kinda) mission to heck up the green sun. (P.S. you can't go wrong with hella' samples + at least 73 different phasers.) (P.P.S if y'all wanna see what this lit jam was like when it was just a simple "chill dave song" then too bad because the Instaudio link is dead R.I.P) (P.P.P.S lol nice name that wasn't used nerd) (P.P.P.P.S oh wait that was me...) ---- -Track: 8r8k the 8ottle -Additional Names: -- Break the Bottle (quirk-free) -Artists: -- apatheticPianist (composition) -- Pascal van den Bos (arrangement) -Cover Artists: -- Camelote -Art Tags: -- John -- Rose -- Dave -- Jade -- Lil Cal -- Gate -Duration: '4:13' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VhMGErwclI -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Referenced Tracks: -- track:sburban-jungle -- track:showtime-original-mix -- track:endless-climb -- track:aggrieve -- Sunsetter -- track:beatdown-strider-style -- track:mutiny -- track:lotus -- track:liquid-negrocity -- Courser -- track:cascade-beta -- track:spiders-claw -- track:doctor -- track:penumbra-phantasm -- Crystalanthemums -- track:upward-movement-dave-owns -- Another Jungle -Commentary: |- - apatheticPianist: (composer, booklet commentary) - - As you've probably gathered from listening to it, this song is themed around the first five acts of Homestuck! It has a similar structure to [[track:cue-the-curtains|Cue the Curtains]], but with five parts instead of four (which is oddly appropriate, in retrospect - five parts, five acts): John, Rose, Dave and Jade, Bec Noir and Vriska's machinations that led to him, and finally the kids' ascensions and the Scratch. The title uses Vriska's quirk for two reasons: because she had a pretty big hand in the creation of Bec Noir... and also becasue she's "stealing the spotlight" from the Beta Kids. Anyways, a huge thanks to [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|PotatoBoss]] for mastering this song, and I hope y'all enjoy it! ---- -Track: Me/Ga/Lo/Vania -Directory: me-ga-lo-vania -Artists: -- Frost Carter -Cover Artists: -- Méline Hamard -Art Tags: -- Vriska -Duration: '2:40' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fs79Uru26xc -Referenced Tracks: -- track:megalovania-ebhh -Commentary: |- - Frost Carter: (composer, booklet commentary) - - It's funny, you can't seem to go two steps on the internet without stumbling across a remix of [[track:megalovania-undertale|one certain song]] that shall not be named. Y'know, that [[track:megalovania-ssbu|one song]] that's associated with that [[track:sans|one character]] from that [[album:undertale-soundtrack|one game]]? Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Well, I decided to add to the pile with this remix of [[track:megalovania-ebhh|the OG version of that song]], complete with a sound effect from that other game that probably helped inspire that first game that I mentioned.

I wrote the first bass parts with some squares (the square in the middle even sounds like [[track:walk-stab-walk-r-and-e|Walk Stab Walk]] even though i didn't intend it to) to give it some variation. Then some phat beats for dave coolness and [[track:time-on-my-side|Time on My Side]] combined with [[track:cascade-beta|Cascade]] to give it max awesomeness, i guess you could see it as a strife theme for alpha Dave fighting those clowns on top of the "purple house". ---- -Section: Disc 2 ---- -Track: ~~Disc 2~~ -Directory: disc2-stlap -Artists: -- Frost Carter -Cover Artists: -- Hilaletto -Art Tags: -- Rose -- Horrorterrors -Duration: '0:07' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKLSeqvv2NY -Referenced Tracks: -- track:aggrieve -Commentary: |- - Frost Carter: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This is, as I'm sure you noticed, a quick one.

The bass in the beginning is building the tension of Rose trying to sneak out of the house, and when [[track:aggrieve|Aggrieve]] starts playing you know she got busted. I also added parts of [[track:sburban-jungle|Sburban Jungle]] to foreshadow her entering the medium soon, and the guitar just makes everything 10x cooler. ---- -Track: More Real than Kraft Mayo -Artists: -- Frost Carter -Cover Artists: -- Paula Zotter -Art Tags: -- Dave -Duration: '2:21' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_-P6O_n1co -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Commentary: |- - Frost Carter: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This song just kinda exists.

I had an idea where I could make a song on FamiTracker and then master it on FL Studio, so I did! This idea turned out well, I just had to export each track on FamiTracker separately and then import them all to FL Studio and so I could just mix it as much as i wanted like some kind of evil scientist, but way less exciting... ---- -Track: Daydreamer -Directory: daydreamer-stlap -Always Reference By Directory: true -Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Cover Artists: -- OrangeKrro -Art Tags: -- Jade -- Prospit -Duration: '2:14' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuRLjkv6zUU -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -MIDI Project Files: -- Title: MIDI by Pascal van den Bos (original composer) - Files: - - Daydreamer - Pascal van den Bos.mid -Commentary: |- - Pascal van den Bos: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This is what happens when you're scrolling through your Touhou soundfont trying to come up with ideas for an original track and you find a funny thing, i also used a fretless bass to have some of Jade's wackiness. Since she's a Prospit dreamer, i based this track on Prospit and it's dreamers. That's why this track sounds so dreamy and dissonant. I was also heavily influenced by Final Fantasy themes while making this. Overall i think it came out pretty much like how i wanted it to. ---- -Track: Delirious Biznasty -Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Cover Artists: -- Pascal van den Bos -Duration: '2:01' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2FaG_2hRjM -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -MIDI Project Files: -- Title: MIDI by Pascal van den Bos (original composer) - Files: - - Delirious Biznasty - Pascal van den Bos.mid -Lyrics: |- - GameBro! - - The GameBro is here and he's got the games - All you other lamebrainers better feel the shame - He can bend the rules, he's too cool for school - And he's got just a few cheat codes for you - There ain't nothing that'll ever hold this bad boy down - That hat that he's wearing's like his personal crown - He's got every game beat and skills that sweet - But if you want in his crew, you gotta be elite - - Uh! - Do it, do it, do it, do it! - Uh! - Alright! - - It's GameBro! - When you're out of quarters, he's got your back - He never ever betray you, man, that's a fact - Yo, he's your best friend, and never foe - So, come on, and let's go! - - The GameBro is here and he's got the games - All you other lamebrainers better feel the shame - He can bend the rules, he's too cool for school - And he's got just a few cheat codes for you - There ain't nothing that'll ever hold this bad boy down - That hat that he's wearing's like his personal crown - He's got every game beat and skills that sweet - But if you want in his crew, you gotta be elite - - Alright bros, are you ready? - It's time for the one, the only, GameBro! - He's coming to your screen straight from the magazine - The mix meister of Master Swords and mushrooms - Are you sure you're ready for this? - Well come on, get ready, get set, and here we go - - Uh! - Do it, do it, do it, do it! - Uh! - Alright! -Referenced Tracks: -- Time on My Side -- track:beatdown-strider-style -Sampled Tracks: -- track:gamebro-original-1990-mix -Commentary: |- - Pascal van den Bos: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This is an idea that came from an emoji we have in our discord server, which is the deliriousbiznasty emoji.

So when i added [[track:doctor|"Doctor"]] into it, it got even better. The sweet drums and the high square from [[track:windswept-shale|"Windswept Shale"]] by Baleish finished it up and made the song sound as good as it does.

Back around the time I joined the music team, I was listening to Explore and thought the orchestration of the synths would translate well to strings. I'd also probably been listening to old Apocalyptica at the time, resulting in a cello ensemble with plodding gritty drum loops. While Explore soars above the remains of the world, Wander is grounded and more subdued. The interlude of ambient jungle noises was partially to reflect the world reverting back to nature, and the distant atmosphere and distorted portions are sort of the echoes and ruins left behind. ---- -Track: Take a Stand! -Artists: -- Sunbent -Contributors: -- CALIKID (some help) -Cover Artists: -- SoulofWoods -Art Tags: -- Vriska -- John -- Rose -- Dave -- Jade -- Lord English -- Victory Platform -Duration: '6:58' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM-xp_8g62M -Cover Art File Extension: jpg -Referenced Tracks: -- track:killed-by-br8k-spider -Commentary: |- - Sunbent: (composer, booklet commentary) - - A pretty long one, and i guess it's kind of a non cannon afterwards to [[flash:8087|collide]] in my mind. I refrained from using leomotifs because I honestly don't think this song needs it. Now if you watched collide, it never actually showed them killing lord English right? Well this is in my mind the battle theme to what happened there. If you want you can watch the YouTube theories but simply put, after collide vriska summons more powerful beta (and possibly alpha) kids out of her sburb house thingy. So basically it beta kids, vriska and the ghost army vs lord English. And thats the song. I considered calling it "collide v3" but i felt it was too obvious. ---- -Track: LOWAS M.D. -Artists: -- Frost Carter -Cover Artists: -- Culdhira -Art Tags: -- John -- Consorts -- LoWaS -Duration: '1:41' -URLs: -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Hxsk1UZdV8 -Referenced Tracks: -- track:doctor -- track:megalovania-ebhh -Commentary: |- - Frost Carter: (composer, booklet commentary) - - This song has a truly awful name, I know.

I also used alot of spacey synths to signify Bec traveling to space and teleporting all over the place and shit. And then [[track:MeGaLoVania|MeGaLoVania]] and [[track:beatdown-strider-style|Beatdown]] are in there for some reason.

As you've probably noticed, it's separated pretty evenly into four parts: first Vriska vs. Lord English, then Terezi and the Striders vs. Lord Jack and Spades Slick, then the HIC fight, and finally an ending meant to call back (forward?) to Act 7. Also, giant thanks to [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|PotatoBoss]] for mastering it and 8r8k the 8ottle - they definitely wouldn't have had that extra Homestuck kick without his help, hehe.

Fun fact: It was originally titled "Penumbra Phantasm (Frosty Edition)," but then, thanks to a typo from [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|PotatoBoss]], the "Edition" changed to "Style," and, honestly, I prefer it this way.

"Nah, this is just too spooky for Dave, but maybe spooky enough for Rose?" so I changed the idea from a song about Dave & Time to a song about Rose's (and Dave's kinda) mission to heck up the green sun.

It has a similar structure to [[track:cue-the-curtains|Cue the Curtains]], but with five parts instead of four (which is oddly appropriate, in retrospect - five parts, five acts): John, Rose, Dave and Jade, Bec Noir and Vriska's machinations that led to him, and finally the kids' ascensions and the Scratch. The title uses Vriska's quirk for two reasons: because she had a pretty big hand in the creation of Bec Noir... and also becasue she's "stealing the spotlight" from the Beta Kids.

Back around the time I joined the music team, I was listening to Explore and thought the orchestration of the synths would translate well to strings. I'd also probably been listening to old Apocalyptica at the time, resulting in a cello ensemble with plodding gritty drum loops. While Explore soars above the remains of the world, Wander is grounded and more subdued. The interlude of ambient jungle noises was partially to reflect the world reverting back to nature, and the distant atmosphere and distorted portions are sort of the echoes and ruins left behind. +--- +Track: Take a Stand! +Artists: +- Sunbent +Contributors: +- CALIKID (some help) +Cover Artists: +- SoulofWoods +Art Tags: +- Vriska +- John +- Rose +- Dave +- Jade +- Lord English +- Victory Platform +Duration: '6:58' +URLs: +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM-xp_8g62M +Cover Art File Extension: jpg +Referenced Tracks: +- track:killed-by-br8k-spider +Commentary: |- + Sunbent: (composer, booklet commentary) + + A pretty long one, and i guess it's kind of a non cannon afterwards to [[flash:8087|collide]] in my mind.

Well this is in my mind the battle theme to what happened there. If you want you can watch the YouTube theories but simply put, after collide vriska summons more powerful beta (and possibly alpha) kids out of her sburb house thingy.

As you've probably noticed, it's separated pretty evenly into four parts: first Vriska vs. Lord English, then Terezi and the Striders vs. Lord Jack and Spades Slick, then the HIC fight, and finally an ending meant to call back (forward?) to Act 7. Also, giant thanks to [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|PotatoBoss]] for mastering it and 8r8k the 8ottle - they definitely wouldn't have had that extra Homestuck kick without his help, hehe.

One day i was hanging out on the Bowman Discord server and we were just kinda talking, so then Michael mentions that him and some friends are making a Strider version of the vocals to [[track:cory-in-the-house-theme-song|the Cory in the House opening]], and i was like, ohshit i can make a remix of the theme that uses Strider motifs if you want :eyes:. So i made it and i named the instrumental version CITH Beatdown as a reference to [[track:wsw-beatdown|WSW Beatdown]]. Later the vocals were added and it became Strider in the House. Thanks for making this Michael your Dave voice is epic lmao. + + Michael Parker: (Dave, booklet commentary) + + This entire concept started as a joke between me and my friends, “what if you took Dave Strider and put him in Cory in the House”. It was a meme, a dumb idea I did and even drew art for. We came up with a whole scenario and description of “the show”. Then we were like “what if we made a parody of an intro”, and I contacted PotatoBoss and proposed the concept. I was honestly shocked when he agreed to make an instrumental remix of Cory in the House. Over the span of around a month or two, we made the music, got myself and my friend to record the lyrics, and then made it a video on youtube. Now it’s making an appearance on this album, which boggles my mind. I voice Dave Strider, while my friend Bun sings as Vriska. Making this was extremely fun, since I have no musical talent whatsoever, but enjoy working with PMT on their various projects. Everyone in PMT is so talented, and as cheesy as it sounds, it’s an honor to be able to contribute to this album and work with them.

Simply put, it was the main beginning bit, ‘cept it was at a slower tempo, and sounded decently worse than it does now. I had it lying around when I joined the PMT, and decided it has potential. So, I took it, looked closely at how [[Black]] actually played, and made it into a more fully-fledged remix. Can I say it’s my best work? Probably not. But I would, at the very least, hope that it’s decently enjoyable to listen to if anything. + + Funnily enough, when I uploaded the song to SoundCloud (where it suffered in quality from the upload, unfortunately) I mentioned in the description that it was likely to be my last Homestuck song/remix.

Since i always wanted to remix Davesprite i decided to just lay down the main melody too and remix the song. This song probably took longest to make, not because it was harder than the rest, but because it kept being edited. The first time was because i messed up some notes and pitching, the i removed some parts for no reason which i ended up adding back later. Then i got some disc scratch samples from [[artist:erik-scheele|Erik Scheele]] that sounded really cool so i added those in, that took a while to get decent too. And still with this version i’m not 100% satisfied but it’ll do.

So, I’m reserving it for the next album, one where I can have time to acclimate to new software and actually make a good product. + + In it’s place, we have this sort of Descend/Upward Movement remix that I managed to cook up in the spare time away from my main PC. It turned out alright, but according to [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|Mr. P-Boss]], equalization on it was quite poor. It was an understanble and true statement - the software I used for it wasn’t really made to equalize. + + Because of this fact, he actually offered to take the midi file of the song and the audio file and convert it into a more equalized, and hopefully better sounding, version. As of writing this, I’ve yet to hear anything about it though. This description will be changed if he does end up following through. If he doesn’t, then what you’ll be hearing is my version of it, and this description will be left unchanged. In any case, I hope it’s a good listening for the ears. +--- +Track: Pascal "Don't call me Starkemeister" van den Bos and TimelessHeir's DX collab (gone wrong(gone sexual)) definitive edition +Additional Names: +- Name: >- + PotatoBoss' and TimelessHeir's DX collab + Annotation: >- + [YouTube title](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTwRgtfk4tk) +- Name: >- + Pascal “Don’t call me Starkemeister” van den Bos and TimelessHeir’s DX collab (gone wrong)(gone sexual) definitive edition + Annotation: >- + name in booklet +Artists: +- Rowyn Berlan +- Pascal van den Bos +Duration: 9:36 +URLs: +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTwRgtfk4tk +Cover Artists: +- Knil +Cover Art File Extension: jpg +Referenced Tracks: +- Miasmic Decay +- track:vexation-paradox-music-team +- track:proletariat-paradox-music-team +- track:avarice-paradox-music-team +- Static Dust +- Sunsetter +- The Lemonsnout Turnabout +- Hate You +- It's Safe Now +- Walk-Stab-Walk (R&E) +- Crystalanthemums +- Time on My Side +- Cascade (Beta) +- Penumbra Phantasm +- Liquid Negrocity # credited as black +- Oppa Toby Style +- track:lust-stlap2 +- Versus +Commentary: |- + Pascal van den Bos: (co-composer, booklet commentary) + + Rowyn and i wanted to do a collab song for a while and here we finally got to it.

I produced Rowyn’s part so it would fit better with mine, after that i started working on my part, i just tried to make another song that had a lot of leitmotifs in it. I was also really into Hotline Miami at the time so it has [[track:its-safe-now|some of that]] in it too. I’m also proud of the [[track:oppa-toby-style|Oppa Toby Style]] reference since i haven’t seen many songs that use that anywhere.

Originally this song was going to have a bunch more references to Jane songs (I.E [[track:cyan-beast|Cyan Beast]], [[track:jane-dargason|Jane Dargason]], Etc), but I decided against this. The reason for this is that I felt like most of the songs I did for this album did not have enough of my own original composition and relied too heavily on references. So I decided to merge the references I had already planned with some original writing. I kept the references to [[track:first-steps|“First Steps”]] by David Ellis and added a reference to an unreleased song called [[track:crock-n-roll|Crock N’ Roll]] by RJ Lake.

In short I wanted to make a strife theme for the denizens but as stated earlier I lost interest. Then there’s Rainy my savior, he told me that he wanted to finish the song for stlap 2 if there was room and I honestly love the direction he took the song. + + Rainy: (co-composer, booklet commentary) + + So I lied about Lifesaver being my last song stlap 2, sorry. Basically, when Rowyn said she could not finish the original demo of Beastly Skirmish, I decided to take upon myself and finish it. I liked what I had heard from that initial and thought it would be a shame for it not to get finished. At the time there were no more slots on the album, so I was gonna put the arrangement on ice until [[album:stlap3|STLaP 3]]. To cut a very long story short, we wound up needing and extra song and I was more than happy to oblige as it gave me an excuse finish this. I’m not quite sure if I captured the feel of the composition all that well, but I am somewhat happy with what I did for the arrangement. Despite what she might say, Rowyn is pretty good at music making. +--- +Track: Time on My Side 16-Bit Cover +Additional Names: +- Time on my Side 16 Bit Cover (name in booklet) +Artists: +- Pascal van den Bos +Duration: 3:22 +URLs: +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6hJoz86Qrc +Cover Artists: +- Knil +Cover Art File Extension: jpg +Referenced Tracks: +- Time on My Side +- Beatdown (Strider Style) +- Liquid Negrocity # credited as black +Commentary: |- + Pascal van den Bos: (composer, booklet commentary) + + A while before i made this i asked [[artist:erik-scheele|Jit]] if he still has the disc scratches from a bunch of his songs.

After doing [[track:spritely-gardener|Spritely Gardener]], I wanted to do another song for the album. I had a bunch of stuff started but I just never had the energy to finish them. One of the ideas was a massive multi movement homestuck medley referencing all the beta kids' land theme. But like the other WIPs, I couldn't bring myself to work on it more. This went on until some time in early November. In November, I learned that [[artist:buzinkai|George Buzinkai]], Creator of homestuck songs like [[track:doctor|"Doctor"]] and [[track:endless-climb|"Endless Climb"]], had passed away. I was felt a profound sense of grief at her death. Some time passed, and I wanted to do something to commemorate her memory. So I decided to give my old project file another shot and that how "A Happy Ending" was created. I wanted to create something that embodied how much Homestuck and it's musicians meant to me. Is it perfect? No, it has a lot of issues and is overly long (Sorry [[artist:pascal-van-den-bos|Pb]]).

doctorcorby +Cover Art File Extension: jpg +Referenced Tracks: +- Diamond Dust +Commentary: |- + Rainy: (composer, booklet commentary) + + Alright so I have quite a bit to say about this track. A last year [[group:the-paradox-music-team|the PMT]] put out [our earthbound album](https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/album/whats-your-favorite-song-earthbound-2019), which was a fun little break from our usual homestuck music thing. I wrote a song on that album called [[track:diamond-dust|"Diamond Dust"]] that quickly became one of my favorite songs I had written at the time. Shortly after the album came out I had the desire make a proper follow up to that track. Sometime later, I was improving on the piano and got this really nice sounding chord progression that made me think of snow. I was looking for an idea at the time for STLaP 3 at the time, so I made this my last song for the album. During the process of writing this song, I had the idea of remixing "Diamond Dust" into this, effectively making Snowfall the a sequel to that song. Overall I'm pretty proud how this turned out and I'm glad I got to make the follow up I wanted. +--- +Track: Unite Synchronization - Spad3s Glitch Hop Remix +Artists: +- Spad3s +Duration: 3:17 +URLs: +- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/unite-synchronization-spad3s-glitch-hop-remix +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEGAVLK66QE +Cover Artists: +- Siedlag +Referenced Tracks: +- Unite Synchronization +--- +Track: The Outer Veil +Artists: +- Chromaphantasia +Duration: 2:44 +URLs: +- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/the-outer-veil +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ_ObBwpE4o +Cover Artists: +- doctorcorby +Cover Art File Extension: jpg +--- +Track: Color of the Ocean +Artists: +- Pascal van den Bos +Duration: 4:13 +URLs: +- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/color-of-the-ocean +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgcNhQhehX4 +Cover Artists: +- doctorcorby +Cover Art File Extension: jpg +Referenced Tracks: +- Love You (Feferi's Theme) +--- +Track: Threshold +Directory: threshold-stlap3 +Always Reference By Directory: true +Artists: +- Beau Brian +Duration: 2:32 +URLs: +- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/threshold +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lFishQG2I4 +Cover Artists: +- bisectro +Referenced Tracks: +- Corridors of Time # credited to Delldongo Fabrice(!?) +- Arisen Anew +- Clockwork Melody +- Gentle Heat +--- +Section: Disc 3 +--- +Track: ~~Disc 3~~ +Directory: disc3-stlap3 +Artists: +- Pascal van den Bos +Duration: 0:28 +URLs: +- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/disc-3-3 +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdUGP1qyWnY +Cover Artists: +- doctorcorby +Cover Art File Extension: jpg +Referenced Tracks: +- Distortion Navigator +--- +Track: Everlasting Hope +Artists: +- Rowyn Berlan +Duration: 2:51 +URLs: +- https://pascalpotatovandenbos.bandcamp.com/track/everlasting-hope +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_hB-wzPjFQ +Cover Artists: +- animmania +Referenced Tracks: +- Perxenic Highlands +--- +Track: Moonsetter -

He did an amazing job though, like i didn't think that solo at the end was playable to be honest but whaddaya know, it sounds fucking epic lmao. Now i just gotta get him to play the DX version... -- cgit 1.3.0-6-gf8a5
