(Continued from Mexican But Not Really)

Oh yeah, the third song, The Gemoni Mustard Blood, the Sollux song on this album. This is probably by far the best song on this album, it's the only one on Cool and New Greatest Hits, and it actually had new art for the Greatest Hits album.

And the old art for this I still think is pretty funny, this guy took a picture of bread with Gemini symbol and ketchup on it, but recolored it to look like mustard, and... I just can't bring myself to hate this song at all for some reason, just because people like it that much.

I think it's a pretty good medley of Sollux songs, and as before, it uses something from Beforus, The Mituna Method, which is actually a really good song, despite all the flack Beforus gets. So let's listen to this one.

Wait, who am I kidding, I still sometimes listen to this song, because it's on Greatest Hits, and I like listening to the Greatest Hits album, but yeah, the beginning is with that Beforus song.

As I said earlier, this was the first song I made for my solo album, and I kind of dicked around with some Sollux motifs, I guess, and made this. It has a cool drum pattern, unlike most of my songs, it uses a lot of vibrato effects, I just... I just actually am pretty damn proud of this song in retrospect, especially considering it's one of those songs I made back in July, and my first serious song for this team, I guess.

Oh yeah, this is the Gold section, this song is actually, I don't want to be self-indulgent, but this is one of the few songs on this album I still like after all these days. They also remixed The Blind Prophet, which is a really distinctly Radiation-feeling song, and it just has cool guitars, cool violin patterns, without sounding bad and dumb, like, I don't know what.

But yeah, people say this song is catchy, and weirdly enough, this is one of the few songs, this is one of the songs I didn't get to have stuck in my head. The one after this was stuck in my head for some time after a while. I know, it's dumb and self-indulgent to have your own music stuck in your head, but this is just such a multi-layered song, which... which I think really brings out as much as you could with VRC6 FamiTracker, and I used VRC6 for this whole album because 2A03 with only 4 channels and plus DPCM is just not enough for me to write music unless I want to be super minimalistic, which I can only use if I want to make cheap dumb things.

Yeah, I can't believe I actually like this song after all this time. Maybe it's because others put it on a pedestal that I can't hate it, I don't know.

But yeah, this is another one of those endings that ends with the riff way I always end songs. And that's it, that's the Gemoni Mustard Blood.

This commentary is specific to this release, Land of Fans and Music 4.

cookiefonster: (composer, booklet commentary)

You know, it's pretty funny that some Cool and New Webcomic songs (such as this one) are being re-released on this album, but at the same time it's kind of fitting, since after Volume 10 was released, the CaNWC soundtrack helped reignite the notion of Homestuck fan music.

I made this song before I knew I'd be making a whole album full of songs like this, just as a Sollux song for the hell of it. Even though this was the first one I made, it pretty clearly turned out to be one of the best, and I recently figured out why: the vibrato feature in Famitracker adds magic to everything and this one uses that feature pretty heavily. I'm not even joking, that functionality makes chiptune songs so much better.

Title is a reference to Tavros and Fairie: A Love Story, a trollfic that starts off funny but eventually becomes truly painful to read.

Sollux is about to get down. Gotta give out some FRESH BEATS. Gotta JAM YOUR EYEBALLS AND EARHOLES WITH SOME SWEET ASS TUNES. CHECK IT OUT YO.
