a few months ago i found this really cool website, its a homestuck fan project that basically functions as a live radio station for homestuck music!!! its got a live chat to hang out in as you listen to pretty much any homestuck-related music, including the "canon" albums and way more fanworks than i even knew existed. I really recommend it if you are an enjoyer of the homestuck soundtrack in any way. you can also request tracks if u wanna just listen to a few of ur faves!!!

(screenshot of what it looks like)

(also i think it would be awesome if y'all could spread this cause i think its a really cool project that deserves more recognition and just knowledge that it exists cause its awesome. ok ty for reading bye)

Todays rip: 22/03/2024

Viva La LOWAS

Season 7 Featured on: The Year of Grand Dad Sound Selection [Side B]

Ripped by Cosmic199X

Requested by literallyn01imp0rtant! (Request Form)

I'd like to very much thank literallyn01imp0rtant for suggesting a bevvy of Homestuck rips for me to cover, but also apologize in advance - despite being a Tumblr user and overall internet dweller, I'm actually still very unfamiliar with the series. Not that I'm disinterested, far from it - if anything, the recent influx in new rips from the series has only made me more interested in getting into the series now in 2024. But even watching from a distance, it's been fascinating to see Homestuck's presence on SiIvaGunner from the early years to now - with Viva La LOWAS leading the charge for a new age of rips of the series.

See, while the channel was starting out in the early Seasons, there was a real sort of commitment to only ripping video games on the channel. That is still something that is *mostly* adhered to nowadays - for instance, rips like A Day In The Snow or Remember when this song was the one related to toilets? will still use the Rock Band and Guitar Hero games as sources despite the songs featured obviously not originating there. But the same also applied to Homestuck, as most of the franchise's music used for rips were assigned to the official, episodic, now-effectively-cancelled Homestuck adventure game, HiveSwap. Like it was for me, it was likely a bit confusing for those out of the loop - unless you gave the key art's main characters a second look, the name and artwork don't really jump out as you as "Homestuck" right away. But now with HiveSwap effectively dead in the water, and SiIvaGunner's adherence to only ripping "real" games being far looser, a change occurred on October 24th 2023 - "retconning" all Homestuck rips to have been part of a series-specific playlist. There was even a cool little announcement made that provided a lore-accurate reason to the change having been done, referencing both Homestuck itself and the early parts of SiIva Season 2 - that's the kind of channel-and-lore harmony that I raved so much about in Haltmanna feat. Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20.

There's a lot to love about the original Doctor theme from Homestuck, with a magical sound eerie reminiscent of Cave Story (which was confirmed as being a major influence to it by the track's late composer). With Viva La LOWAS being made six years and a month after the fact, I can't exactly say it was made in tribute to her passing - yet arranging Viva La Vida of all tracks in this melancholy chiptune sound still just feels so befitting. The combination fits like a glove throughout the whole arrangement and gives the rip an equal amount of hope and hopelessness, a sense of bittersweet acceptance, and many more emotions that the original Viva La Vida already instilled into people way back when. As a huge fan of both the song itself and of Cave Story's music (see Balcony Fusion Collab), Viva La LOWAS hits hard for me even without the context Homestuck itself provides for it. The fact that this rip led the way for all future Homestuck rips to follow, free from HiveSwap's shackles and finally able to champion Homestuck itself, only amplifies those feelings. And so this elegantly simple arrangement is able to mean so much at once despite it all.

Here's to more Homestuck, and here's to me one day finally reading it.

Guys I need help

This one part of Remedy gives me Homestuck vibes and I can’t figure out why

My brain is drawn to Sunslammer, Rex Duodecim Angelus, and BL1ND JUST1C3 1NV3ST1G4T1ON, but none of them feel quite right

Tho that last one 🤔 does have Justice in the title 🤔

The OST is objectively the best thing to come out of Homestuck

HELLO TUMBLER, IT SEEMS I HAVE MEMORY LOSS

(not actually but y'know I'm just a dent head)

I literally can't remember a thing about Homestuck but I'm very inspired to do some drawings

Fucking sucks too because my ass completely knows every character by name but cannot remember how they act or how their dynamics work or how the fuck the quadrant system thingy did.

Like literally all I understand is

- Bucket = 69 joke

- Dave is cool and sorta gay but hates to admit it

- Rose (I THINK??) is SUPER GAY with her vampire troll w o m an

- there was a puppet that dirk used to bully dave

-Space Stickman and space dog that fuses with people idfk.

- They were on earth, and then some fancy islands or something and then a meteor and then I really don't fucking remember?? Like it just cuts to final battle in my brain but ik there was something with a ton of other dumb shit but I can't remember

- some lore about terezi being blinded by vriska thanks to long distance brain controlly

- WHY IS THERE A FROG AGAIN??? THERE WAS A FROG?

- I told you about the stairs bro

- Calliope deserved better and is just a sweet bean(??)

- Ms crocker is mind control

- MAYO(R) in some sand area I don't remember anything else, but he's wholesome w his firefly fren

- WHY IS THE SOUNDTRACK SO GOOD oh right toby fox

- I do understand the aspect system to some extent but I can't remember who was who for the most part besides the original kids

- Beta kids (is that what they are called? The fuckin,,, timeline snagged kids that are like relatives technically and it makes all of em uncomfortable a little??)

Please just infodump lore about character dynamics dumb shit that I can't remember and PLEASE CORRECT ME? I feel like I'm not the only one here that's just silently riding along in the fandom but truly has no idea what the fuck is going on.
