On the subject of things that aren't Homestuck but feel like it, I have been listening to a ton of music from Starship Amazing lately.

The fakebit sound feels just like the heyday of Homestuck and gives me the warm fuzzies inside. You can click through any of their other albums in related videos and get the same effect.

Oh, man, this is a blast from the past. I remember Starship Amazing and finding it from the guy who did The Happy Video Game Nerd, and apparently they've put new stuff out and he's also rebranded the channel? This is a good day.

Well, a good day for things other than homestuck. What's the betting odds on it coming out this year currently?

Easy choice for me: Candles and Clockwork. It got a couple nice remixes at least.
Speaking of music, CaNMT Greatest Hits 2 comes out tomorrow. It is a collection of the best of the actually good songs since greatest hits one, so a good entry point for those looking to see what has been happening without wanting to wade through overly memey or shitposty songs.

And it's out. It has a lot of good tracks and, inexplicably, my Beetleborgs parody track also made it on there.

Clawtopsy posted:

This question is insanely difficult because I'm a massive dork for homestuck's music so Imma go for a top 5 in no particular order:

Dance of Thorns, because goddamn Strife! is a baller album and really deserved more representation. Yeah I know this one technically got used, in the kickstarter video, but gently caress that, it deserved a proper place in the comic.
Lotus Bloom. This feels like something right out of a proper fantasy game like Zelda or some poo poo, maybe for a big important moment or critical narration or something. Like the lake makeout scene in Final Fantasy X, but less dumb. Or possibly even dumber, actually, this IS Homestuck after all.
Alternia. I used to imagine/hope that this track would feature in the very final scene/end credits for homestuck, because it has all the makings of a 'final' song and it's beautiful. Very soft and almost melancholy, perfect for a quiet credits roll.
Dawn of Man. I actually want to say "this entire album," to be honest, because it's criminal that not one track from MT&HK saw screentime in the comic proper, but if I had to pick just one track, it's probably this one. Although, Lies with the Sea is an extremely close second.
Conclude. Again, I kinda want to just nominate Vol. 10 in its entirety, here. It's a shame it was released so late in the comic's life that only two tracks were featured, because nearly every single track is deserving, but none moreso, I think, than the grand finale. This is REALLY the kind of song you'd see overlaid through the final scene of....not just a movie, but a SERIES of movies, that's how grand a sense of scale I feel from it. If the nigh-mythical epilogue ever happens I desperately hope this song is the framing device.

Honorable mentions:
Pumpkin Party in Sea Hitler's Water Apocalypse, on the name alone it's pure gold, and the song is pretty great too, very fun and upbeat and a total earworm.
Green Ghost, my personal favorite 'Doctor' cover. Woulda loved to hear this song in one of the meenahquest sequences if perhaps John had had a larger role to play in them.

OK done being a music nerd for now.

I was genuinely surprised this was never used. It was such a massively popular, highly referenced track. I just assumed it hadn't been used closer to when it was released because Hussie was saving it for a credits/last hope before the end sort of track. I guess there's the epilo-hahahahaHAHAHA.

I don't think Whistling Jackhammer was used anywhere. It sounds like the title music to some great, non-existent SNES game.

I'd actually switch that, have regular ocean stars be used in the opening and ocean starz falling used for the climatic finish.

Also, R.I.P. ms paint, you made elementary school much more fun.

I wonder if there were ever any legal difficulties in calling his series "MS Paint Adventures"? I guess the actual products were Homestuck and Problem Sleuth, so that might not have been a problem, but still.

Turning around 360 degrees would be a complete circle so you would be in the same place.
