I get asked a lot for this, so I decided to give it some extra love and attention. I have attempted a number of times to put together a mix of Flare that utilized the distinctive crescendo that is recognizable from Cascade, but it never seems to work well without the cinematic context. The buildup sort of leads to nothing, and then the track either ends awkwardly or fades out, and I have something personal against fade-outs. Maybe I’ll talk about that someday. But not now. I gave it another go, this time trying a decrescendo to bring the song back down from all the energy it riles up, then ending it on kind of a creepy note. I had more success here than I ever have in past attempts to cut the song together in this way. Flare was a pretty big hit in its own right, so there’s always the pressure coming from the responsibility to handle this properly. I hope you enjoy it! --- Track: Savior of the Dreaming Dead (Cascade Cut) Artists: - Malcolm Brown Duration: '4:31' URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9dF20s8SYo Referenced Tracks: - Savior of the Dreaming Dead - Cascade (Beta) Commentary: |- Niklink: Unofficial name. You see, originally [[track:flare-cascade]] was released as 'Flare (Cascade Cut)', so the same was appended by fans to the edited form of [[track:savior-of-the-dreaming-dead]] seen in [[track:cascade]]. Later on when 'Flare (Cascade Cut)' was revamped and release under simply 'Flare (Cascade)' the name for this one had already stuck, and remained that way since. --- Track: Sick Bleats Artists: - Toby Fox URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuOohbBhErY --- Track: Anbroids Artists: - Malcolm Brown Duration: '1:33' URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elZ-C1JmNBc --- Track: weird moody horse shit Artists: - Alex Rosetti Duration: '1:02' URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC2Vdh7WmDc Referenced Tracks: - not a creature was stirring --- Track: Darling Dolorosa Artists: - Toby Fox Duration: '2:06' URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrXZJkY8eq0 Referenced Tracks: - Darling Kanaya Sheet Music Files: - Title: Sheet music by EuniverseCat Files: - 'Darling Dolorosa - EuniverseCat.pdf' - Title: MIDI by IronInvoker47 (piano) Files: - 'Darling Dolorosa - IronInvoker47 (piano).mid' --- Track: GameGlr Artists: - Toby Fox Duration: '1:31' URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbpRX42T7Ho Referenced Tracks: - GameGrl (Original 1993 Mix) - Teal Seer Lyrics: |- Aw yeah!

Artists: - James Roach Duration: '1:42' URLs: - https://soundcloud.com/jamesroachmusic/beekeeper-who-i-dont-know-her - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYI7F5FHTmA Commentary: |- James Roach: this track presented a unique problem in that i didn't want to write it at the time. I had written a really somber and melancholic track for the area outside the hive (the farm in the concept art) and changing it into something a little goofier and weird presented a unique difficulty for me. I just didn't know what to do for the first time in like actual YEARS i had no idea where to even start. I kept at it for a very long time and eventually just muscled through it with sheer force of will. People often ask me the hardest track or my least favorite to work on. it was this one. silver lining: its also become one of my favorites. i love how it came out. thats the power of determination. did you know you can't say determination anymore. this was written for, yes, the fabled beekeeper troll that nobody will talk about. its become some sort of myth as to what happened to her but the truth isn't that exciting. in early hiveswap days each member of the crew got to "pick" a character that they could choose one design element of. The person who picked beekeeper just had a fantroll based off of herself. they also just... drew micro/macro porn of themselves? a power move, honestly. I met them in person and they offered me weed within literal minutes of meeting so i mean i guess they seemed nice. when they no longer worked for the company it was just simpler to redesign the character than deal with literally any of that. mystewy sowved :) at the point in production where they were figuring out names/personalities/traits they kinda thrust this one on me because it "would make the most people angry." beekeeper troll was beloved by a very specific kind of horny dude. you know the kind that regularly says "lewds" or w/e. nothin wrong with that i guess. chase your bliss. but in an effort by my SO CALLED FRIENDS to antagonize me, they were like "heh h h e h he e e he h what if we make this cute girl character that hornyboys love into a dumpy little round dude and then say we based him off james who they already do not like." thanks guys. anyway zebede's bullet points and even his name are references to me but thats kinda where it ends. st. james son of zebedee is also known as santiago, which is my birthname. the tongva were "maybe" the indigenous people of long beach, where i live, which is "too far to visit" which is a joke about The Greater Los Angeles Area. I live 20 minutes away. cowards. --- Track: Charun's Cave Artists: - Toby Fox Duration: '1:03' URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wc5iruoYLXM --- Section: Tracks featured in Pesterquest --- Track: Friendvangelion Rebuild Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - Earth Duration: '2:55' URLs: - https://soundcloud.com/jamesroachmusic/the-note-desolation-plays - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnBMOTxQfJ4 Cover Artists: - Homestuck Referenced Tracks: - Homestuck Commentary: |- James Roach: how mysterious --- Track: sometimes i call andrew hussie 'andy' and so far he hasn't corrected me Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - John Duration: '4:34' URLs: - https://soundcloud.com/jamesroachmusic/pesterquest-sometimes-i-call-andrew-hussie-andy-and-so-far-he-hasnt-corrected-me - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSrT-SDN-uA Cover Artists: - Homestuck Referenced Tracks: - track:showtime-piano-refrain - Homestuck Commentary: |- James Roach: SO!

I will try my best. --- Track: please support The Trevor Project Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - Rose - Earth Duration: '3:19' URLs: - https://soundcloud.com/jamesroachmusic/pesterquest-please-support-the-trevor-project - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urbot0kfsz8 Cover Artists: - Homestuck Referenced Tracks: - track:endless-climb Commentary: |- James Roach: I wasn't certain how to approach this one. I knew if I was going to use the theme from endless climb it wouldn't feel right accepting any money for it. These things don't exactly pay well to begin with tbh, so i thought I would use the platform i've been given to try and do something... even a little positive. at first the song was just going to be called "play the rain" because naming it something stupid, while keeping up with tradition, seemed like it would be in bad taste. at some point while i was working on it i started looking into various charities i could donate the proceeds to, and it hit me that i could just ask to make the title in the credits a link to the charity. suicide is something that is hard for me to talk about. its very personal. i tend to internalize feelings in order not to.. bother anyone. a few months ago i called a suicide hotline when i hit a really low point and i think just the act of calling made me feel... in charge somehow? feelings are fucked up. don't be afraid to talk to someone. even if it is a stranger at the other end of a call. take that step. you're not bad for feeling that way. so anyway. endless climb was one of the very first homestuck songs that really drew me in, and doing a cover of it all those years ago really got me back into taking composition seriously. it could easily be argued that this song changed my life for the better. if you want to know more about the trevor project, or just suicide prevention in general visit thetrevorproject.org --- Track: 2chords Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - John - MSPA Reader Duration: '1:13' URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3JQPZ2T03k Cover Artists: - Homestuck Referenced Tracks: - track:upward-movement-dave-owns --- Track: ill probably just name this one something normal oh no wait oh jeez aw beans Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - Dave Duration: '4:50' URLs: - >- https://soundcloud.com/jamesroachmusic/pesterquest-ill-probably-just-name-this-one-something-normal-oh-no-wait-oh-jeez-aw-beans - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DREQ4rJUXXQ Cover Artists: - Homestuck Referenced Tracks: - Davesprite Commentary: |- James Roach: well cats outta the bag i did the dave route. when andrew approached me about writing it i had very little writing experience outside of my personal projects. im glad andrew had faith in me and i hope you guys like it. itll come out at 11 AM EDT. for this one and the next routes music im gonna try and keep with the tradition of uploading it the morning of. --- Track: 24/7 lo fi anime beats to question your sexuality to Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - Dave - MSPA Reader Duration: '2:51' URLs: - https://soundcloud.com/jamesroachmusic/pesterquest-247-lo-fi-anime-beats-to-question-your-sexuality-to - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0I2ufAhRbf0 Cover Artists: - Homestuck Referenced Tracks: - 2chords - track:upward-movement-dave-owns - track:sburban-jungle Commentary: |- James Roach: i just wanted to do more than one song so i did two and a half. hope you like it. thanks for all the support! also im in this image can u find me LMAO Pesterquest art of the inside of an Olive Garden, packed with Homestuck team members. --- Track: CAREFREE VICTORY (REMIX) Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - Jade Duration: '6:02' URLs: - https://soundcloud.com/jamesroachmusic/pesterquest-james-roach-ft-speak-n-say-carefree-victory-remix - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8aZFD8ic9A& Cover Artists: - Homestuck Referenced Tracks: - track:carefree-action - track:carefree-victory Sampled Tracks: - Speak-N-Say Lyrics: |- (Arf) A B C D 1 2 3 4 E F G H 5 6 7 8 I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Correct (Arf) A B C D 1 2 3 4 E F G H 5 6 7 8 Above ancient angel anything Beauty believe blood built Bullet butcher child circuit Danger Danger (Arf) Bark Commentary: |- James Roach: jades theme! wow we've really come a long way huh fellas? i always really liked carefree victory and its really one of the only songs that felt like uniquely hers. towards the end i try and do something that like... every homestuck musician i think tries at least once: getting all 4 of the kid's instruments to play something nice together. i think i did alright, i subbed in beatboxing for daves turntables cause its not like you can just carry those anywhere. i guess as opposed to johns piano?? LMAO musically i have jade start on bass, and as more of her friends come in she gets a little more confident in her basslines. anyway thats my fanfic. this is the last new piece i'll be doing for the forseeable future, or until i feel like doing another one which might be immediately. ive been doing this on a largely volunteer basis for a while since the budget constraints were tight and we need to pay the bg and sprite artists a reasonable amount. I wanted all four kids to have music by me and i think we'll be digging into the homestuck archive for other stuff. anyway i hope you've enjoyed the ride! its been a little bittersweet at times for me but i'll miss posting new stuff every two weeks. --- Track: CRUSTacean Directory: crustacean-pq Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - Karkat Duration: '5:28' URLs: - https://soundcloud.com/jamesroachmusic/pesterquest-crustacean - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hdPSPGCK3Q Cover Artists: - Homestuck Referenced Tracks: - track:crustacean Commentary: |- James Roach: there are a handful of people out there who really thought we were just gonna put karkalicious in there. --- Track: the drone rhythmic motif which can be found in act 1 and act 2 Directory: drone-pq Artists: - James Roach Art Tags: - Karkat - Alternia URLs: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ne8kXtFgkjg Cover Artists: - Homestuck Commentary: |- James Roach: oh yeah, the music you hear during Karkat’s pesterquest route that isn’t his theme is the rhythmic motif for the drones. it happens in a few other places in Act 1 and Friendsim, as well as multiple place in Act 2 it might be a little wild because the motif isn’t melodic, but a good example of it is in “[[track:keep-your-head-down]]” and during the drone cutscene in act 1 Niklink: Unofficial name.
