      @Tasiezme 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I don't think that'll happen. If anything I think now that it's over, Homestuck's notoriety will over time begin to grow. It's a work of modern literature, a statement on our culture and generation, and that's really valuable to talk about even besides all of it's other forms of depth.
      Now that it's mostly "over", actual analysis work can begin, and people are already working on doing that. Stormingtheivory, TH-cam's Tex Talks, whoever else springs up--It's as exciting a time as ever to care deeply about Homestuck. Just in a different way. The Bible never faded away on completion, and neither have any other popular/impactful works we have now--there's no reason to think Homestuck will.
      And yeah there's also all the other exciting work Homestuck diaspora creators are doing. Undertale, Neo-Kosmos, Hiveswap, the list continues to grow. Homestuck fandom isn't going anywhere, I'm pretty certain of that.

    I'm usually protective of the songs that I really really love in anything, especially this one since it's my top favorite song of Homestuck. This song strikes a chord with me because of how it can go from gentle guitars to heavy electric then back to gentle piano and violins and I loved the song for being able to do that. You managed to replicate it all on one piano and keep the feel and sound of it. I love it so much.

    • @dothemusicything8541
      @dothemusicything8541  7 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Thank you! I do try very hard to make these recreate the effect of the originals (not just get the notes right) - which sometimes means that I won't arrange certain tracks that I like because I don't think I could do them justice on piano.

    Can...I just say some things?

    You..inspire me to play piano better than I already do. You have made me feel the need to practice more, play more and attempt to learn songs.
    This..was beautiful... So many tears fell from my eyes and down my cheeks yet it brought me so much happiness. Thank you so..so much.
    I play piano, but I cannot read sheet music..I play by ear so learning this will be tricky until I get the hang of reading sheet music.

      +Tia Silva Eh, they take time. That's really most of what there is to how I do them. Heir of Grief had to be done quickly to be ready for 4/13, but it still took hours of work. It basically comes down to paying attention to sonority and momentum when arranging, and being willing to do something difficult when necessary to do the music justice.

    Its so weird to listen to this being so far removed from when I was a fan of homestuck but still understanding the feelings I had then, and honestly it reminds me how much of a push homestuck was for my creativity even if I like to laugh about how cringey it is now. I was insanely into the god tier system and knew the ins and outs of it, I created so many indepth characters, I planned a whole fan comic of me and my friends with our god tiers figured out and started drawing the first pages, I even wrote themes for everyone and their lands on musescore. That music was some of the first music I ever wrote, and now here I am pursuing a degree in music composition. I dont give this series enough credit for how much it changed me in the year and a half that I read it from 8th grade into my freshman year of highschool, but damn, who knew these kids and their crazy adventure would change me so much.

    So maybe I shouldn’t be commenting but, welcome to 2019, 3 years after this was made and Homestuck officially ended, and a couple of days since the infamous Homestuck^2: Beyond Canon came out. With this comic and Hiveswap 2 making its way, I can safely say that 2019 nearby declares a new, although minuscule, wave of Homestucks. The time is now people, the space between the past and present closing ever so slowly, yet in the light of what has happened thus far, the world must prepare to have its breath taken away very, very soon.
    You have a feeling that 2020 is going to be a long year.
    Let me tell you about Homestuck.

    • @dothemusicything8541
      @dothemusicything8541  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      As that was a practice room piano, it's probably on wheels, which makes that a bit easier. But yes, pianos can shake a little bit when you're particularly emphatic. Thanks!

  • @LucyHeartfiliaasdfghj
    @LucyHeartfiliaasdfghj 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    There's so many emotions connected to this song. It's truly a masterpiece. It makes you feel how worn from the battle they are and yet how determined they are to win the fight... Their dreams, their memories. The stronger focus is on the humans (especially the four the comic started with) with each having their part in the song and their instrument in it.
    Though I feel like it's especially strong on John's side. First off the song is called "Heir of Grief". Who of the main characters is heir? John. Why grief? Well, he is the John from the pre-retcon/GAME OVER timeline after all. He remembers another outcome to the final battle. All of his friends had died before and he took all the blame for it. Though surely this battle was very emotional for him, him remembering everyone that died and fighting on for them....making this timeline have a better ending.

    • @dothemusicything8541
      @dothemusicything8541  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'll keep doing these! And good luck with learning to play it. You might also try playing A Taste for Adventure - while that one's long (and was difficult to record for that reason), it's one of my less difficult arrangements technically (and if nothing else, you could learn the easier sections of it). Sburban Jungle is probably the easiest arrangement I've done, if you can find someone to play it with.

    • @dothemusicything8541
      @dothemusicything8541  8 ปีที่แล้ว
