Q:I was a bit (read: severely) disappointed to see that Flare (Green Sun Remix) didn't end up on Vol. 10 (especially since, as I recall, you had originally said that it would be). Have you released it anywhere for download yet?

Volume 10 got done differently than most of the albums had; in the end, none of us had any say in which of our tracks we wanted to put out for release. Word was handed down from on high, and the Flare remix was not on the list.

I’d like to release it on my own Bandcamp, maybe with a few other unreleased Homestuck tunes of mine.

Q:What should game devs think about when commissioning music? What can they do to facilitate your job?

Just be honest about what you’re looking for! If I can help you with your project, I will!!

Q:The song that became Minotaur (Project Latitude was the old name if I remember right) was never used for vol. 10 for the Homestuck soundtrack. Is it alright to ask why? Also, since I think you said that you originally used Project Latitude as a code name, could you tell us what the track's original real name was? I'm assuming that it had something to do with Karkat?

Yep! It was a Karkat song. It was, and remained as Minotaur, a song about a character whose bad judgment and personality flaws have left them in a situation where they can no longer do anything but reflect on their mistakes. I always loved that about Karkat; he was so intense about trying to solve every problem facing him that his blind momentum brought him only to failure and loneliness, in the end.

I never did give it a proper title, which is why I gave it the silly codename Project Latitude in the first place (the specific “latitude” was the Tropic of Cancer, hoo hoo).

And I decided to publish it myself because Volume 10 wasn’t even on the horizon yet at the time! That album only started getting organized a few weeks ago, honestly. And I’m glad I did publish it when I did, because in the end none of us on the music team had any say about which songs we wanted to put on Volume 10.

look, it’s completely ridiculous to suggest that reaper takes off his mask and he’s just the fucking demoman. he needs to have the luxurious hair of a beautiful male model. please start drawing him this way immediately. if i see a single drawing of reaper where he doesnt look exactly like this i’m calling the cops until it sticks
