I just observe them. - I really rushed this one out. It's my fault; I lost track of time. I did the intro and buildup (everything up until the 1:11 mark) over the course of several months, then lost my shit when I noticed it was April 11th and did EVERYTHING ELSE AFTER THAT over the span of eighteen hours. I would've liked to spend more time adjusting levels, doing a proper mixdown, and polishing up the many rough patches, but like I said, I lost track of time. Regardless, I'm pretty proud of how the track turned out. It feels like it could be a boss battle theme for a Homestuck video game. This is what plays when you, Dave, ascend to the rooftop and get your ass kicked by your older brother, or something like that. + I really rushed this one out. It's my fault; I lost track of time.

[[track:beatdown-strider-style|Beatdown]] by [[artist:curt-blakeslee]] is one of those tunes. I still remember being 12 years old, coming home from school and throwing all my homework aside to read Homestuck for hours, skipping every single pesterlog like a dumb little kid, just trying as hard as I could to blast through the thousands of pages that were out already and catch up to the comic's present. I think I caught up around the time when Andrew Hussie put the comic on pause for a long time. I don't remember exactly, though. + Some of the tunes from the webcomic's discography remain among my favorite tracks of all time because they evoke emotionally-rich memories of the past.

That snap and filter sweep you keep hearing? That's Roy Mustang's flame alchemy. That blip-blip-blip? That's Falco's shine, of course. That high-pitched ding that I played layered with the snare in the middle? That's a sound effect from Danganronpa. I think it's the sound effect that plays when something surprising happens and some dialogue appears. The sword slashes and cuts are also from DR. The first game. Aside from that, we've got a whole bunch of presets, a whole lot of sounds I designed myself by screwing around in Ableton with plugins and effects, a bunch of free samples I downloaded off sketchy sites, a shit ton of meticulously drawn automation curves, and my very own Yamaha upright piano. I played all the piano in this track with my own two hands. That was hard. My right wrist still hurts from furiously playing that super verby high-register ostinato that comes in after 2:57. I think I nailed it, but you can be the judge of that. + The sound design (can I even call it that?) in this track took for fucking ever. I stole a couple of cool sound effects from familiar sources.
