This is the first song I submitted to the Homestuck music contest, called “S0llux ii2 0K!”
Song details I sent to AH:
Song Title: S0llux iis 0k!
Arranged by: Cullen Lawson
Sampled from “The La2t Frontiier” by Toby “Radiation” Fox
and “Sunslammer” by Seth “Beatfox” Peelle
(Original “Sunsetter” by Toby “Radiation” Fox)
Song notes: A softer chiptune arrangement of Sollux Captor’s
theme from the Homestuck web comic by Andrew Hussie. Meant to
capture Sollux’s feelings on his recent blindness and “half-death”
(WHATEVER THAT MEANS… according to Karkat lol).
The music box-like melody can be percieved as Aradia (whose former
planet in the Medium was the Land of Quartz and Melody, and was known
for using music-box-like timetables, appropriately) guiding and
consoling Sollux through his new situation. The changing tempo
throughout the song further gives the illusion of listening to a
music box of sorts. I hope you enjoy it!
