<b>Sburban Genesis</b>
This song is a remix of [[Dawn of Man]] and [[Sburban Jungle]] by Michael Bowman. Part of [[Exodus]] by James Dever also shows up. Making it was quite an adventure, but I think it turned out well. [[album:mobius-trip-and-hadron-kaleido]] doesn’t get nearly enough love.

<b>Wanderer’s Vigil</b>
This is my second entry to [[album:coloUrs-and-mayhem-universe-a|the Homestuck Music Contest]]. This song is for WV in his various identities, from Villein to Vagabond. The industrial drum set was chosen to give a feel for his origins as a pawn in the vast mechanisms of SBURB, while the determined mood is based on his defiance in the face of overwhelming odds. The song briefly quotes from [[Sburban Jungle]], along with [[Skaian Skirmish]].
Thanks for all the feedback on [[Batrachian Biogeny]]!

<b>Wanderer’s Vigil (First Update)</b>
Back in the old days of a couple months ago, I entered a piece called Wanderer’s Vigil into [[album:coloUrs-and-mayhem-universe-a|the Homestuck Music Competition]]. It was pretty low-quality, but I think I’ve figured out some of the parts that didn’t work in it, such as the square waves and lack of equalization. Here’s an updated rendition. It’s still in progress, and feedback on what to work on next would be great, but it’s at least better than it was. Whoo, musical progress!
Oh, yeah, and it’s a theme for WV on the Battlefield. Quotes are from [[Skaian Skirmish]] and [[Sburban Jungle]].

I heard there’s music auditions going on for the Homestuck anime, so I did this as my audition piece. It’s a theme for Aradia’s god-tiering. Feedback is welcome.

<b>Pacific Lullaby</b>
Felt like working on something more peaceful today, so I came up with a theme for Jade on her Pacific island. Finally figured out how to use half these instruments as well, which is a plus on the side of musical education.

<b>Amphibian Archeology</b>
Here’s another Homestuck tune, this time for the Frog Temple and all its inhabitants. Jade inspired the bass and flute, while the rest is based on the Exiles. I intended it to sound desert-like. This piece was a blast to work on, as was [[Pacific Lullaby]]. I hope I will be able to submit one or the other for consideration on [[album:lofam2|Land of Fans and Music II]].

<b>Batrachian Biogeny</b>
This song is my entry to [[album:coloUrs-and-mayhem-universe-a|the Homestuck Music Competition]]. It’s a theme for Bilious Slick, the glowing frog who also happens to be an entire universe. The celebratory melody represents the tremendous achievement of creating a Genesis Frog and the awe the Consorts and Prospitians have for it. There are hints of disturbances to come, however.

<b>Too L8</b>
This is my final entry to [[album:coloUrs-and-mayhem-universe-a|the Homestuck Music Contest]], this time for Vriska. This song was written with her [confession scene](https://homestuck.com/005366) in mind, so it quotes from John’s leitmotif [[Doctor]] as well as [[track:MeGaLoVania]] and [[Spider’s Claw]] for Vriska. There’s also a bit of [[Sburban Jungle]], [[Homestuck Anthem]], and [[track:bl1nd-just1c3-1nv3st1g4t1on|BL1ND JUST1C3: 1NT3RROG4T1ON]], since I like to end my songs on a morbid note.
The piano/chiptune combo from [[Wanderer's Vigil|WV]] returns here, since I find it fairly useful for setting a melancholy mood. The electric guitar and bass were pretty much required, this being a Vriska theme after all. The alternation between the heavy guitar parts and the lighter piano sections was chosen to reflect the changing tone of Vriska’s conversation with John, the leitmotifs roughly matching the various subjects they talk about.
Too L8 took longer to put together than [[Batrachian Biogeny|BB]] and WV combined, mostly due to school and sickness, but I’m still not certain about parts of it. Feedback was greatly appreciated on the first two songs, and any comments on this one would be fantastic.

<b>Stalemate</b>
Yay, new music, this time for Jack and PM as they traverse the Furthest Ring. Still trying to figure out the mastering controls. I have no idea what I’m doing.
Includes elements of [[Black]], [[Sburban Jungle]], [[Explore]], and [[Flare]]. Inspired by [[track:noirscape]].
EDIT: This is an old draft. Still in progress.

<b>Stalemate</b>
Yeah! Another draft with more corrections. It shouldn’t sound so terrible now.
Anyways, this is for Jack and PM in their chase through the Furthest Ring. Quotes from [[Sburban Jungle]] (as usual), [[Explore]], [[Flare]], and [[Black]]. Inspired by [[track:noirscape]]. How do you feel about it?

<img src="media/misc/stalemate-lofam2.jpg" width="350">
THIS TRACK ART CAUSED ME SO MUCH PAIN AND SUFFERING so I'm just calling it done because I like how it looks now. I drew this for Stalemate, which should be on the [[album:lofam2|LOFAM2]] album that will hopefully come out by Christmas this year!
This track art is making me cry over how a lot of my favorite characters are Dersites and how hard they are to color well in a painterly style, just so you know. The crack in the Furthest Ring was a whole lot of fun, though! I can't exactly make this animated since it's track art, so I decided to make a lot of little hue changes in the crack itself. I'm pretty satisfied with the effect I got by doing that!
<small>#lune draws things once every blue moon #lune is still kind of sort of terrible-ish at commentary</small>
<i>Quasar Nebula:</i> (wiki editor, 1/2/2024)
Although Stalemate didn't end up on [[album:lofam2]] in the end ([[track:sburban-genesis-lofam2]] by the same artist did, instead), this artwork ended up getting used about a year later for [[track:dogfight-dirtiests-dubstep-remix]] on [[album:lofam3]]!
