#    ~[[album:jpeg|.jpeg]]~ 𝓕𝓸𝓷𝓭𝓵𝔂 𝓡𝓮𝓰𝓪𝓻𝓭 𝓘𝓵𝓵𝓾𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷 is a concept album: the team's artists draw some art and the musicians have to make music based on that art, instead of the usual other way around.
#
#    <i>tempest2k:</i>
#    i like it
#
#    <i>Circlejourney:</i>
#    Can it be? After a year and a half in the making, the "Art First Album" is finally out?
#    Typically at UMSPAF, musicians produce the music first, then visual artists illustrate every track. For this album, we flipped the script: developing it in the same pattern as [[group:canmt|CANMT's]] [[album:jpeg|.jpeg]], the artists made the illustrations first, and then musicians created tracks based on them.
#    The album began work on 23 September 2023. 568 days later, it is finally out in the world. This thing's old enough to walk at this point, but I promise the wait wasn't for nothing. It has some of the best fanmusic I've heard outside a LOFAM (and I'd go so far as to say it rivals a LOFAM in quality).
#    So, after that protracted development period, I'm beyond delighted that the wider world is finally getting to...
#    **Fondly Regard Illustration**.
#
#    <i>Circlejourney:</i>
#    Many thanks to all our <b>artists and musicians</b> for contributing their talents to this album over the course of the past year, and to <b>our mastering team</b> for bringing the sound of the album together. And thanks go out to <b>the manager team</b> for coordinating this album, and <b>Makin</b> specifically for putting together the Bandcamp page, collating the art & music files, and setting up this album booklet. We made this hapen.
#
#    <i>Makin:</i>
#    Conditional thanks to all our <b>artists and musicians</b> as long as they never, ever, ever, ever make a <b>SLOT ALBUM</b> again. Even this one was too close.
#    Slot albums slow things to a crawl because people drag their feet on picking or finishing that one <b>last track</b>, holding everyone else back... if you elect me as <b>UMSPAF president</b>, I will lobby the <b>United Nations</b> to make freeform albums mandatory. Thank you.

Lyrics: |-
    Though it's hard, my dear, to play your part
    With the execution blade in your hand
    While a candle of hope lights your heart
    No blood will wash the land
    For the fear of all you couldn't be
    You could never dream of what you'd begun
    Though the fall is so lonely
    Your love touched everyone

    Halt right there
    Now where have you been?
    You meant to meet the world
    Either burn it or save it
    The flowers lie in skies that roll forever
    And remember
    You can't cheat the world
    Always returns what you give it

    Daggers, staves and beggars
    Maths and manners
    Baths and banners on the wall
    And meadows, masks and shadows
    Bask in shallows
    Play in the rain
    Rise up again and gain
    Royal, false or loyal
    Pause and try all doors
    Turn strangers into friends
    And lovers, till flowers unfold the end

    Though it's hard, my dear, to play your part
    With the execution blade in your hand
    While a candle of hope lights your heart
    No blood will wash the land
    For the fear of all you couldn't be
    You could never dream of what you'd begun
    Though the fall is so lonely
    Your love touched everyone

    Through the burning days and darkest nights
    Hold your little dagger close in your hand
    Let your candle of hope be your light
    Your voice grieves the wasteland
    Though you fear the things you cannot be
    There's a world of love you've yet to see
    Though the fall is so lonely
    You'll live to tell the story

    So take the leap and fall
    When you hope and dream
    It takes nothing at all
    So fall
    All it takes to save the world
    Is start out small

    And it's hard, I know, to play our parts
    Throw the execution blade from your hand
    While a hope still burns bright in our hearts
    No blood will wash the land
    For the fear of all you couldn't be
    For the story that you've somehow begun
    Though the fall is so lonely
    Your love saved everyone

    For the fear of all you cannot be
    You could only dream of what you'll unfurl
    Though the fall is so lonely
    Your love will change the world
Commentary: |-
    <i>Circlejourney:</i>
    Fan spaces like to theorise on the reason Frisk climbed Mount Ebott. One of the more common headcanons—and the one that shaped this song—is that it was a suicide attempt. While obviously not the only interpretation, this reading compels me because of its deep resonance with not only my own life but also the themes of the game. Beginning from a hopeless space sets Frisk's journey in contrast—as an arduous climb back home, along which they save the Underground by steadfastly choosing mercy and life over vengeance and death.

    To be saving others' lives even while struggling to save one's own—I hoped to capture just a sliver of that sentiment here. The song is situated in the moment Frisk falls into the Underground, told like a future vision of everything they are and could become. I wanted to play with different sense of "falling": a regression, an escape from despair, a leap of faith?

    <i>Tavvy:</i>
    Recently, I've come to adore Frisk as a character. Regardless of their reason for climbing Mt. Ebott, their journey through the Underground is marked by a prevailing sentiment of determination. That powerful determination, whether it's used for nice or not-so-nice reasons... that dichotomy was what I hoped to depict.

    <i>yuuDii:</i>
    There's an '[[track:enemy-approaching|Enemy Approaching]]' but they kind of aren't feeling it, and they've heard the human's pretty chill, so they're just going to slowly make their way over because they're not in a real rush to start the battle or anything.

    <i>Skyplayer:</i>
    Watch out... here he comes... oh no... he's on his way... you'll never be able to defeat him... he's almost here... any second now... prepare yourself... anytime now... uh oh... get those mitts ready... for a brawl like the world has never seen before... any moment now... do you see him on the horizon... be careful... he's about to attack... it's time... for a good boy... his appetite for pets can never be satiated...  look out...

    My signature 3D stuff here is actually pretty basic, but, for the first time in one of my trackarts, I have at last managed to perform the ancient ritual known as "drawing". I am truly unstoppable now.

Commentary: |-
    <i>Rose Gray:</i>
    Echo Flowers was written for the 2025 fan music album Kindred Souls, published in September 2025 by the Unofficial MSPA Fans in commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the video game UNDERTALE by [[artist:toby-fox|Toby Fox]]. The piece depicts the above conversation from the game, overheard by the protagonist in passing through titular echo flowers amidst the deep blacks and shining teals of the Waterfall area. The conversation is one of yearning, of wanting freedom, of wanting a better life for you and your loved ones; it is one of hope, of imagining a better life, of imagining a world that has moved beyond war and beyond strife; and it is one of connection, of vulnerability, of sharing your hopes and dreams with those you love.

    This tone poem is in three sections. First, an atmosphere of resignation is established. Yearning is present, but it has no release, leaving it to first softly groan before building to a great pained wail. Then, hope emerges, and the passersby’s imaginations bloom into a beautiful world beyond the gloomy caverns of Waterfall. This middle section briefly transforms into fear and despair at the thought of such a world never coming to fruition, but hope ultimately perseveres. The final section is solemn once again, a return to reality, though it is not without one final note of hope, indomitable and ever present hope.

    It should be noted that the themes in Echo Flowers are based on those in the [[album:undertale-soundtrack|UNDERTALE soundtrack]], composed by [[artist:toby-fox|Toby Fox]].

    <i>Circlejourney:</i>
    It was a privilege to illustrate this piece! Waterfall is one of my favourite areas of the game and I feel this tone poem gives it a lot of depth. I wanted to illustrate a piecefull of flowing lines and whirling clouds over a field of flowers to evoke the piano cadenzas and the piece's melancholy yet hopeful atmosphere.

    [[track:another-medium|Another Medium]] is such a special track to me. it's a very unique track in the [[album:undertale-soundtrack|undertale soundtrack]]. I just wish it was longer, which is why I made this remix longer than the original. this is actually an older remix that I overhauled for this album, fixing errors and improving the mix.

    <i>Ender:</i>
    [[track:another-medium|Another Medium]] has always been my favorite Undertale track, since before I even knew the context of the name. I don't know what about it has always given me this grand, adventurous sense of wonder. It must be magic. Or that you hear it for so long while doing the arrow puzzle that it melds with your brain.

    I really like Carpenter Brut's stuff. Like, it's REALLY good. At the time of writing this commentary, i have semi-recently checked out all of their non-soundtrack albums. A big reason for me doing that was because when this album rolled around, "[[track:core|CORE]] but in the style of a Carpenter Brut track" was one of the ideas i had come up with. This was the result.

    I felt like Brut's heavy, electronic, very rhythmically straightforward style fit Core - it's a track for a "final stretch battle gauntlet" after all, the area putting you up against the underground's toughest monsters, so it makes sense for it to fit an intense style.<br>
    (Actually, that being said, i feel like [[artist:ender|EnderSlime]]'s wonderful cover art made for this track reflects that idea very much! A literal wave of enemies isn't something to scoff at.)

    A lot of the effects and practices were actually taken directly from a previous Brut-styled track i did for an mspfa. I assume this is a thing that a lot of composers do frequently, definitely was a new thing for me though.

    I actually intended on using one of the basslines for a different track which may or may not come out at some point, even considering cancelling this track to focus on that one instead. However i felt like this track was close enough to being finished compared to that one for it to not be worth cancelling this one. Glad that i didn't! Not like there can be enough Undertale tracks for the Undertale anniversary album.

    Lastly, i wanted to say thanks to Zumi's vgmdb CORE midi for assisting me with putting together a lot of the foundation for this track!


    And, as always - Beware of the man who speaks in hands.

    <i>Ender:</i>
    Carpenter Brut is… it's weird. I've never played a single game he's ever done music for. But one day my best friend, my friend group's longtime DM, had a brand new combat playlist for us, and it was filled with the coolest tracks we had ever heard. We were all instantly obsessed. She uses it for particularly straining or important battles, so it's special and memorable when we hear his music. It's strange having someone's work affect you so much, completely separated from the context in which it was made. So here I am, making track art for an Undertale remix that emulates his style. Ship of Theseus type shit.

    <i>ruby:</i>
    \* Stage lights are blaring.


    What started as a simple transcription and recreation of the [[track:power-of-neo-unfinished|scrapped, longer Power of NEO]] [[artist:toby-fox|Toby]] worked on for DELTARUNE, turned into an 11 minute-long anthem for an exhausting fight between an immovable object and an unstoppable force. Basically, "What if Mettaton NEO actually put up a fight?"

    The fight drags on, tension rises. Those who remain watch on in fear and amazement. The fate of the world is at stake.


    00:00 - As the smoke dissipates, the silhouette of the robot becomes visible.
    00:39 - Action! The fight is on. KILLER ROBOT vs. UGLY LITTLE CREATURE
    02:25 - It's not even clear anymore whether this is a fight to the death or a dance battle.
    02:52 - The fight gets more and more intense, Mettaton NEO blocks the monster's attacks, the monster perfectly dodges Mettaton NEO's attacks.
    03:58 - They are perfectly in sync. Like a well-oiled machine. But the robot knows exactly what is at stake.
    04:51 - Now it's time to get serious. With the power of those who failed to stop you, Mettaton NEO's attacks intensify!
    06:50 - Over in the capital, a skeleton is watching the broadcast. It'll be a bad time if Mettaton fails now...
    07:17 - Mettaton slips up! He makes one wrong move, the monster immediately takes advantage and finally lands a hit.

    \* ...

    07:40 - Lights start flashing in sync with the beat.

    \* ...

    \* Didn't...

    \* Didn't you know...?

    \* DIDN'T YOU KNOW NEO IS FAMOUS FOR ITS HIGH DEFENSE!?

    08:06 - Despite everything, Mettaton NEO persists. More determined than ever. He can't give up now, everyone is counting on him. He is the star.

    10:20 -










    huge thanks to [[artist:yuudii|yuuDii]] for allowing me to use her [[track:super-killer-robot|Super Killer Robot]] track! when i thought i got everything out of [[track:power-of-neo|Power of NEO]] that i could get, she dropped it and told me i could use it for my track if i wanted to. i ended up making an entire extra phase!

    also thanks to [[artist:ender|EnderSlime]] for helping out with the song title, in addition to the awesome art!

    <i>Jebb:</i>
    So, tell me for a second. WHY is Glyde THE only one of the Kickstarter bosses to not have a boss theme? Muffet has one! I mean, even So Sorry has one! Why does Glyde for some random reason not get a boss theme when all the others do?? Like, his spawn location gets a completely unique atmospheric track ([[track:mysterious-place|Mysterious Place]]) but his actual fight doesn't? What?? Why?? Glyde is COOL and RADICAL and he does NOT deserve this injustice!!!

    I decided to fix that.

    Anyways. The inspiration for this track was in big part [[track:gamebro-original-1990-mix|GameBro (Original 1990 Mix)]] and [[track:catswing|Catswing]]. You can hear the GameBro inspiration most in the duty cycle and the Catswing inspiration in, well, the completely unaltered Catswing motif.<br>
    Actually, i remembered that i was advised to at least tweak the motif a bit to not make it blatantly Catswing but i completely forgot to do that. Whoops, oh well. Let's just pretend that Catswing actually originated in Undertale as part of Glyde's totally real boss theme. Yeah.

    Also, said Catswing motif is played by SGM's Comp Clav, which is the same instrument that plays the "[[track:sans|sans.]]" lead. You figure out the lore implications.

    I tried to make the track more "sleazy gamer cool" than "jazzy villain" coo (thus the GameBro inspiration) but the muzes lead me more into the 2nd direction. Must say, i don't regret it! I feel like it channels enough of both energies to work just fine.

    I am a big fan of how the drums ended up sounding in the last part of the track, the additional percussion layered on kicks and snares adds some very nice texture to it.

    Additionally, thanks a lot to [[artist:star-nomad|star-nomad]] for making track art for this literally like half a week before the deadline! It's the same idea i was envisioning doing for the piece, just so much better executed than if i were to try to do it myself. Also thanks to Tavvy for coming up with the wonderful wordplay for the track's name. If not for him, it would have possibly still been called glyde2.

    <i>star-nomad:</i>
    inspired by that one crown zenith lumineon alt art. if you know, you know. (also you're very welcome, [[artist:jebb|jebb]]- this one was a ton of fun to do and i really wanted this track to not be stuck in art limbo. i'm glad we had the same idea for it)

    There is a friend contained within me.

    <i>MacK:</i>
    Father Alvin, the hammer's anvil, priest of Hometown, and all around hunky dory swell guy has always fascinated me deeply. Something about the tragedy of a priest who doesn't write his own sermons for fear of tarnishing his predecessor's legacy just resonates strongly, even if I never learn to understand the feeling.

    My challenge for this piece, besides an especially long track, was to try and come up with a medley of melodies that best succinctly express moments from Undertale and Deltarune I treasured most, while evoking the feeling of a sort of 'teaching moment' that escalates and carries throughout the piece - exemplified no better than the 4 second transition to Jackenstein a good friend of mine, Terra of terra firma helped concoct. Thanks, buddy. You learnt me something new. And that's kind of one of the best parts about Deltarune, really. It's been a chance to learn. A sort of mentor to mentee who was never meant to be mentored kind of vibe permeates throughout a lot of relationships. I love this series quite a lot, and am eager to see where it's headed! Lots of LOVE.

    <i>Sartorially:</i>
    I have been listening to this track get worked on for actual months. — BEHOOOOLD! The reason I joined this project! My partner is my musical muse in every sense. Been a cheerleader for every stage of this track. ...Partially because listening to the full process has really improved my ear for leitmotifs. As for the art itself: I watched Karate Kid and Kung Fu Panda many times in youth, so Gerson fully unlocks that part of my memory. Basically the whole thing boils down to a fundamental adoration for storytelling in illustration. I also think old men are hot. In case anyone was wondering about that. Just thought you should know.

    I aimed for the feeling of accidentally triggering a boss fight with an angel. Or a demon. Whatever Starwalker wants to be. I wanted to capture that sinking feeling that you are too under-leveled to fight this enemy.

    <i>Levc:</i>
    As a shy composer and producer involved in many fandoms, undertale/deltarune always struck me as one of the coolest because of their HONORABLE TRADITION in making fan songs that could fit in its source. This is my take at something like that, but with a joke character that people would only give a song as a joke or an elaborated shitpost. There’s no irony tho, just an actual attempt to give starwalker an actual song.<br>
    I think this is the only thing I could do to celebrate undertale. To this day, I don’t believe to be good enough to make a cover or arrangement of an undertale track and not make it sound like a cheap copy. So an original theme about a character that gets no music is a good place to work with. It only has the freedom motif because that’s funny… Wait I said there’s no irony, fuck.
    ANYWAY, point is. THIS COMMENTARY IS PISSING ME OFF…. IM

I think the new tone the track brings to the general vibe of "[[track:battle-against-a-true-hero|Battle Against a True Hero]]" is not just the normal one of fighting against all odds, but moreso "I'm going to best your ass and look cool while doing it"

    From myths and legends and fear they rose
    A world basked in the purest light
    Beneath it grew eternal night

    When the future lost its rights
    Three heroes will dive into the night
    It was a tale of light and dark
    To the worlds' edge they shall embark


    The fountains freed
    The roaring cries
    The balance starts
    to shift

    Get up, out of bed
    Raise up your bat and
    Join the fight


    When the dark begins to grow
    And the stars no longer show
    Lost deep in an endless night
    And nothing seems right

    When the sky begins to grey
    And the dark has found its prey
    Face the KNIGHT
    Which makes with blackened knife

    When the light is running low
    And the shadows start to grow
    And the places that you know
    Seem like fantasy

    There's a light inside your soul
    That's still shining in the cold
    With the truth
    The promise in our hearts

    Don't forget
    I'm with you in the dark


    With hope crossed on their hearts
    All alone in the deepest darkest
    Deep, deep inside a light shines bright,
    eclipsing the night

    Demon heart is crying
    As our heroes keep fighting
    They'll hear the ring of heaven's call
    They'll see the tail of hell take crawl


    The roaring sings
    a lullaby
    Of nightmares
    and despair

    But they will persist
    Not all is lost
    Their hearts are crossed


    As the sunlight starts to fade
    And the shadows start to wake
    And as your thoughts are not all
    That they seem to be

    There's a legend whispered on
    Heroes standing at new dawn
    Standing tall
    And seeing past the dark

    And when the stormy clouds are near
    And it becomes too much to bear
    Struck with fear, right through the chest
    As all hope seems lost

    They're the ones who carry on
    Fight the dark that you run from
    Staying true
    With courage in their hearts

    In the dark
    With your heart as the ark


    IT STARTED ONCE UPON A TIME

    A LEGEND SPOKE IN SHADOWD RHYME

    OF LIGHT AND DARK AND LOVE AND HATE

    THE HOPES AND DREAMS THAT GOVERN FATE


    As the fountains fill the sky
    When the darkened eyes will cry
    There's a place high in the sky
    That's so far away

    When the nightmare has been freed
    With the shadows cutting deep
    It's the end
    The prophecy is told

    ( DELTARUNE )


    When the day begins to break
    And the shadows start to fade
    When all hope returns and
    it's gonna be okay

    Shattered dreams and all that's gone
    Like a king, not as a pawn
    Life's a game
    Get up and try again

    When the dark is kept at bay
    And the light may find its way
    Fighting fear, dread, and despair
    Bringing nightmare's end

    Through the fields of pink and gold
    Persevering in the cold
    As the air
    crackles with freedom


    When the light is running low
    And the shadows start to grow
    All your friends are here with you
    in your memories

    All our [[track:hopes-and-dreams|Hopes and Dreams]] live on
    Seal the fear that you ran from
    Standing tall
    Breaking through the clouds

    So when you think you lost your way
    There's no need to feel so grey
    Bursting bright, and crying out
    Scream it loud and proud

    You're the legend they foretold
    [[track:save-the-world|SAVE the World]] and staying gold
    Fighting fate
    The tale of DELTARUNE

    Follow me through the dark
    With your heart as my ark

    But don't ever forget
    Fade into the sunset

    I'm with you in the dark
Commentary: |-
    <i>ruby:</i>
    I originally intended to touch up an old remix of the DELTARUNE main theme I had done back in 2022.

    Then, the DELTARUNE Nintendo Switch 2 trailer dropped, which used [[track:deltarune-nintendo-switch-2-announce-trailer-music|an arranged version]] of the [[track:game-main-theme-piano-sketch|piano demo]]. I've always been a huge fan of the main theme demo, and a little disappointed it never made it past the demo stage, so hearing a more produced version for THE DELTARUNE release date trailer, it definitely gave me some feelings.

    So, instead of including an old remix, I re-transcribed the song, including the additional strings and EarthBound piano.

    (someone bug me whenever this commentary makes it onto the wiki, I can include some wips and screenshots.)

    at some point, I decided to increase the tempo, add guitars, basically make it way more J-Rock-like. I really liked how it sounded so I kept working on it.<br>
    I decided I wanted to make it a full-lenght song, and even write lyrics for it. Great ideas, but let's first try to finish a demo.

    I had the full structure in my head, I knew I wanted to use the lyrics of [[track:dont-forget|Don't Forget]]. then, I knew I wanted to have cool imagery in the lyrics, some lyric concepts I wrote down in the moment made it to the final song even!

    I really had a concrete vision, at the time I literally said:<br>
    "I can't stop thinking about it, all I know is i have to make this song a reality. now I know how [[artist:toby-fox|Toby]] felt after his fever dream, but I was awake when I conjured this concept. I need to make it.........."

    After Chapters 3+4 released, I did end up updating the bridge section to include the [[track:guardian-deltarune|GUARDIAN]] melody. Before, the bridge always felt like it was missing something. The overall arrangement was done, I could focus on writing guitar parts, and mixing.

    I'm not a guitarist, but I tried to make it realistic, something [[artist:jun-senoue|Jun Senoue]]-like or something.

    As the lyrics were slowly reaching completion (there were a lot of lines where I couldn't think of anything and they only really came together last minute lol), [[artist:jebb|Jebb]] was just like:

    "Ok but consider<br>
    Miku for vocals.<br>
    Or teto."

    now, I hadn't done much vocaloid or synthv stuff before, I had only played with [[artist:hatsune-miku|Miku]] a bit earlier this year, but it was the perfect suggestion. I also had been listening to some [[artist:jamie-paige|Jamie Paige]] music with my partner, specifically Constant Companions, which has [[artist:kasane-teto|Teto]] on various tracks. so, I decided I would just try it...

    and it... worked!

    so the last month of working on this song was me finishing the guitars, finishing the lyrics, and programming Teto.

    that's awesome and everything, I am very proud of what I managed to achieve with this song. there are parts of the production I think are lacking, but considering I also had to put time into stuff like writing lyrics, I think it was a fair trade-off.

    maybe some day I will make a version with live vocals, or maybe guitar or something... that'd be cool!


    despite all this, I still didn't have a title. I just called it the "deltarune anime opening", which isn't really a satisfying title for a track with this much effort lol.

    so then I saw the final art by [[artist:selan-pike|SelanPike]], which said it...

    デルタルーン

    it's just the Japanese name for deltarune, but that's just perfect for a hypothetical anime opening for the game, so I adopted it as track title too.

    I really hope you enjoy the track! and, if you read through all this, I hope this was a neat insight into the song's creation!

    PS        as the title is デルタルーン, if you want to translate or "localize" it to English... as it's just the Japanese name for the game, it's just "DELTARUNE" lol

    <i>Selan Pike:</i>
    Originally I was going to do the usual jokey UwU school anime thing, but the more I looked through inspo images, the more I wanted to base it on 90's fantasy anime. In the end, I based this image heavily on a specific manga illustration from Magic Knight Rayearth, which was a huge inspiration to me when I was a kid.

    <i>tsundereCat [TC]:</i>
    My take on what an extended version of "[[track:the-legend-ch4|The LEGEND...?]]" could sound like. The title not only comes from the fact that "UNALTERED" is an anagram of "DELTARUNE," but also from "The LEGEND...?"'s name in the game files, "legend_altered.ogg."

    <i>allahrts:</i>
    From the beginning star-nomad and I knew we wanted to do a collaborative piece together, but we weren't sure which track. The second we heard unaltered though, we both knew immediately that we wanted to work on this piece together. [[artist:star-nomad|Star]] and I hopped into a call together and started sketching immediately. star-nomad drew the rough, and then I was handed the file to work on. Stained glass art isn't something I've ever done before. I must've spent hours just looking at stained glass pieces, seeing how glass worked. As I went I progressively added more and more glass windows. What started as five windows quickly became more. Throughout the whole thing I was gettting feedback from star. After nearly 3 days of constant work I finally handed off the piece to Star, finishiing my role in the piece.

    <i>star-nomad:</i>
    man this album's really been testing my painterly skills, huh? i was blown away by the finished stained glass, so naturally i had to attempt to match her top tier work!

    <i>Jebb:</i>
    Oh Seam, our dear old grandthey. Such a mysterious character they are, with plenty of skeletons in the closet (not those skeletons and not that closet).

    This track was an attempt to make a boss theme for Gerson-type Seam bossfight - perhaps a semifriendly spar of Seam testing the Fun Gang.

    This was the latest addition to the album by me, but also one of the ones that i am the most proud of. I really felt like "Seam boss theme" is a track idea that hasn't been explored nearly enough by the fandom.

    The arrangement directly borrows a lot of instruments used in [[track:rude-buster|Rude Buster]], which i referenced heavily in this track considering Seam's theme, [[track:lantern-deltarune|Lantern]], is a variation on that track. (Actually, did you ever think about the fact that we have heard Lantern in more chapters by now than we have heard Rude Buster?)

    The strings take a much more of a backseat in the track after their initial appearence in the first part for no particular reason. This track has a full part dedicated to referencing Jevil, since we know how much of a connection Seam has to him. I think this is one of the very few tracks on this album which is referencing the other part of [[track:the-world-revolving|The World Revolving]] and not the freedom motif.

    I really like that little ending part. I made it while messing around and decided to keep it in for the final version of the track.

    Thanks a lot to [[artist:ddp|DDP]] for the wonderful colorful track art! It turned out super well! Great to see the Seam Ripper, his definitely very iconic weapon that appears nowhere other than the official cross stitch book, visualised.

    <i>DDP:</i>
    sure, we already got an old man secret boss. but what about the second old man secret boss. btw, a special thanks to [[artist:jebb|Jebb]] for the inputs and making me aware of the official undertale cross stitch book. the seam ripper idea is fantastic.

    Welcome to the latest installment of "tee-vee gets too many ideas and just glues everything together".<br>
    [[track:glaceir|GLACEIR]] is my favorite deeper cut from [[album:deltarune-ch3-4-ost|the latest chapters soundtrack]], it's simple yet haunting and it really gripped me when it started playing where it appears in game. I tried to capture some of that feeling with instrumentation from different styles that could convey similar feelings to me, with grimey chamber orchestration, dungeon synth... synths, sludgy doomy guitars and beeg reverb. I then got the idea to take advantage of the kinda baroque pedal point composition to do something else entirely as a second section

    DON'T YOU SEE? THE MISSING SISTER. WE HAVE FINALLY FOUND HER.

    ...WHY AREN'T YOU SMILING..?

    ---

    This track (my last track on this album) was very much inspired by the undead "true form" Dess design made by euclicide and all the various other interpretations of the concept that have followed. After the long search, the Roaring Knight is finally revealed to be the lost girl. However, she isn't quite herself.

    I liked the concept a lot, and it ended up spawning this track. I wanted to translate the unsettling fear of seeing something such as that concept while also keeping the high octane metal nature of [[track:black-knife|Black Knife]] (she IS still The Knight after all (probably)). Additionally, i wanted to add a lot of tragic over/undertones to the track, though the [[track:raise-up-your-bat|Raise Up Your Bat]] part also carries a slight bit of hope/heroism - perhaps the last remnants of Dess which still remain in there, somewhere.

    The track samples [[track:c|Carol's theme(?)]], which isn't a Dess motif, no, but i felt like it sounded really good as ambience and worked narratively, so why not.

    The ending of this track also ends on a little piano resolution, just like [[track:thread-the-needle-kindred-souls|Thread The Needle]], though i don't mind it since i think it also sounds really neat. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, i suppose.

    Thanks a lot to [[artist:dreadedender|dreadedender]] for the great art (with tweaks by [[artist:tavvy|Tavvy]])! It turned out really good and ominous, matches the vibe a lot.

    <i>dreadedender:</i>
    I am hyperfixated on Dess right now and getting to draw her horrifically was a dream! Thank you to [[artist:tavvy|Tavvy]] for making the final edit for it!! It is perfect now!

    <i>lemonzestdoodle:</i>
    If the unused text from each chapter is Dess and the Knight is her, perhaps she's not even aware of her condition. That girl sure does haunt the narrative. Go check out the Cutting Room Floor for the text by the way. It's interesting stuff.

    <i>Erik Scheele:</i>
    One of the initial ideas I had for this album was "hey, what if I did [[track:descend|Descend]], but I crammed in as much of Deltarune's incidental motifs as possible, instead of any main motifs?". Wouldn't that be a fun throwback, I thought. Wouldn't that be so silly.

    And then the anime news dropped and it was like well okay fine, this HAS to happen now.

    Anyway, I'm sure none of these random motifs will turn out to be anything really important later or anything. What would the chances be of that!

    Thanks to the folks that put up with pestering about mixing and mastering, and Sartorially for the track art!

    <i>Sartorially:</i>
    "[[track:upward-movement-dave-owns|Upward Movement]] but make it Deltarune?" By the Divine Hogs, thy will is done. — This is a somewhat important illustration for me! Originally, this WAS going to be a redraw of Dave ascending the stairwell, featuring Kris! But I realized that it felt like an ever-elevating escape from the narrative of Deltarune itself—a Susie's Idea if you will. Plus... Let's be honest: replacing Lil Cal with Kris just made so much sense,and adding Noelle / Ralsei / Lancer just made MORE sense. This piece is striving to illustrate Susie's unbreakable will, her sense of justice, and her hope pushing through the narrative veil. Ganbatte, Susie!

    I think everyone can agree [[track:vs-susie|Vs. Susie]] is too short of a song. This is an improved version of an older remix, I overhauled the mix, and [[artist:riveira-bailey|the original guitarist]] came back to record additional riffs. He's a great friend of mine, we help each other out with each other's music from time to time, and we're slowly chipping away at an original music project together! His solo at the end of the song still sounds so awesome, please send him some love and check out his music!

    This is based mostly on the MIDI version from the Spamton Sweepstakes, used in the alternate "Silence" ending. Hence the name, of course.

    <i>star-nomad:</i>
    spamton is very near and dear to me, daresay even my favorite character of all time, so any chance to draw him had me excited. the way his backstory and personality is presented to you is PEAK. i wanted to make something that matched the melancholy tone of the track, thus the decision to draw this in sepia tone. so if you feel sad, GOOD

    I originally made this remix running on only a few hours of sleep. It was the morning after the 6th anniversary stream, the one where they announced Chapter 2. I was watching the stream earlier that night, but due to timezones I really had to stop and go to sleep. The first thing I did after waking up was watching the rest of the stream. I hadn't slept much, and the hype of Chapter 2 coming soon inspired me to make this remix which, if I remember correctly, was done in a single day.

    Now, 4 years later, I basically made a director's cut version of the remix or something lol, adding an extra intro and adding more variation on the second loop. I really like how it turned out! It really feels like this old remix has been given new life.

    Thanks to Vortexius for the song title!

    <i>Grace Medley:</i>
    Originally titled “Get Homunculous!” in homage to a certain LCD Soundsystem song, Cagematch is my attempt at imagining a “Kris VS Goner Vessel” battle theme. Kind of serendipitously, it started following a similar arc to the Mother 3 final boss music, where it gets less and less battle-y until the loop comes back around.

    <i>DDP:</i>
    technically, the vessel IS a homonculus, if you think about it. anyway hey kris i think you have too much blood. also also, at first this track reminded me of a dress up game. which we technically also play immediately, if we consider body parts as part of a dress up game. i <3 violence

    <i>Hart:</i>
    I wanted to make a remix of [[track:flashback-excerpt|Flashback (Excerpt)]]. the 30 second version hits hard and has a really good and unique sound. I had a vision for a fuller version of the theme, though this obviously isn't remotely what the official full version would sound like.

    <i>DalekWho1963:</i>
    Since the concept was a bit ambiguous when I first began the artwork, I decided that I would make it so there was a relationship between the vessel and Kris. So the "Flashback" in this sense refers to a sort of remembrance of Kris's potential past and origin.

    i really loved the scene where this plays in chapter 4. it actually moved me to tears. i really wanted to capture how i felt during the scene, and also make it longer cause 45 seconds was Not Long Enough for me lol.

    <i>Tavvy:</i>
    At first, my idea with this track art was going to be something basic. Just an image of the Delta Rune (with a heart replacing the Angel's circle) and the Fun Gang reaching towards it. Even though it didn't really work out, I thought the idea of the Angel with a SOUL at its center would be a really potent symbol. In Chapter 4, this scene really got to me. Sure, the player has ostensibly been helping Kris, Susie and Ralsei on their quest this whole time, but you're practically just a passive voyeur to their adventure. During this scene, however, you're a part of the group. You're lighting the way. You're a beacon of hope. You're their guardian angel.

    I wrote this (and [[track:kingdom-of-one|my other track]]) right after Chapter 1 came out, because [[track:the-holy|THE HOLY]] was really underappreciated at the time (or at least I thought it was). Later I deleted my SoundCloud because I was worried (perhaps excessively) about AI training. Unfortunately, while I saved the tracks, I forgot to note whether this or Kingdom of One was released first, so I have no idea which one the bassline originated in.

    I fell in love with [[track:queen-battle-original|the original theme]] that [[artist:toby-fox|Toby Fox]] did for Queen, along with the art that he did for when Queen was originally supposed to be a lot more serious, so this was a track I've wanted to cover for a long time.<br>
    Potassium.

    <i>Tavvy:</i>
    I was delighted by the idea of expanding on Queen's beta design. At first, I considered going a Medusa route, but once I started tinkering with some designs involving circuit board patterns, I ended up settling on a spidery "World Wide Web" theme. Here's a fun fact: this song originally only had Queen and Berdly's motifs. Noelle's motifs were added after I finished the art, where I'd included a mind controlled Noelle to preserve symmetry. I am very humbled by this.

    Remix of the [[track:king-boss-orchestral|unused version of chaos king]]. Loved that opening and wished it was a full song, though I understand why [[artist:toby-fox|toby]] went with something else. Made this in 2022 or 3.

    <i>Sartorially:</i>
    Did you know that the background image in Jevil's fight is a mirrored carousel in grayscale? — So... This piece... How to explain this piece... Initially, I'd wanted to have a reflection of Kris in the scythe. Drawing them is fun, and this IS the first secret boss, so it felt right. However! What I really wanted to play with was Jevil's natural duality. The funny jester turns into a scythe with TEETH?! That's fun! Unfortunately: I spent way too long drawing Jevil, so covering him up later was a great personal sacrifice.

    <i>DalekWho1963:</i>
    Susie, in my mind, could take on a sort of "Undyne the Undying" type roll later in the Weird Route. I designed her based off of her usual outfit, took some aspects from Gerson's armor, and the general vibe and asthetic from the Undyne the Undying fight. So it's basically, you've monumentally fucked up, and she's gonna be the one to stop you.

    "Fun Gang Standing There All Cool And Stuff" is a broad category of Deltarune fanart that I've been trying to draw since, like, right after the first chapter came out. For one reason or another, though, it never quite worked out. I drew it and redrew it and scrapped it and deleted it and inevitably restarted and yet it still never looked right, so I gave up every time. There's at least seven failed versions of this piece in my files going back to 2018. Probably more. Then I actually made *this* piece, for this song, and didn't realize until after I was done that I actually did the same drawing that I had been attempting for years and years and years. It's real now!!

    An extended and remixed version for the slowed down version of "[[track:anticipation|Anticipation]]" heard in the Genocide route. Tried to make it feel similar to "[[track:deal-gone-wrong|Deal Gone Wrong]]" in terms of vibes. I also wanted to have it almost act as a bridge between the Genocide route in Undertale and the Snowgrave route in Deltarune by also including "[[track:d|d.ogg]]" in the latter half of the track. Having other Snowgrave related motifs and sounds also aided in creating this bridge.

    Conceived initially as a counterpart to [[artist:ruby|ruby]]'s "j-rock anime opening" idea ([[track:deltarune-kindred-souls|デルタルーン]] on this very album), the track went on to go through some extensive retooling in the wake of Chapters 3 and 4's release.

    <i>lemonzestdoodle:</i>
    This feels like how Chapter 3's credit song should have been instead of reusing Chapter 2's. Your guess is as good as mine as to how it’s all gonna turn out but I really hope they don’t end up doing any more repeats.<br>
    But I digress. The end of Chapter 3 was great and this track is a bop.
