(Also, I forgot to say that SPI8ER HUNT and Heir Of Breath are currently in the backburner. They're just really complicated songs and need a LOT more time than I expected.)

Howdy! I have an exciting announcement - Act 8 Volume 1 will be released tomorrow! (Or later today, depending on your timezone.) I'd like to extend my thanks to everyone who contributed to the album, it turned out spectacularly, and I'm very excited to share it with you all. I will be posting the link here soon. If you see any information that is incorrect or that you would like changed, please PM me and I will change it right away! If you have been waiting to post art or music until after the release, I would recommend posting any time after 12:00PM PST, 9/16/16. Thank you so much for your patience, and I hope you enjoy the album as much as I enjoyed helping to put it together.

Hello everyone! I just wanted to post a quick PSA here, in response to some recent discussions about attribution. When you submit a song to be used in the comic or on an album, it is incredibly important to include whether or not the work is entirely original, and if it is not, whose work you are basing it off of, borrowing from, etc. As a general guideline, it is best to use others' work as nothing more than inspiration, or a frame of reference. However, if you directly incorporate any amount of someone else's work into your song, I need to be made aware of the name of the original song and the creator's name so that they may be, at the very least, properly credited. In terms of Homestuck fanworks, leitmotifs are typically safe to incorporate, but it is still an important precaution to let me know (as far in advance as possible) which ones you are planning to use, as some artists make their stance on such things clear, while others may need to be contacted. If you plan to directly sample someone else's work, whether it be through using a literal sample, using a preexisting MIDI or other project files, or creating a direct cover, please contact the creator for permission first. If you do not feel comfortable doing so, contact me, and I will be happy to help. This is not just common courtesy, it is also very important from a legal standpoint. I apologize for not bringing this to everyone's attention sooner, this is a learning experience for many of us, including myself, and I will do my best to be more diligent about making these things clear in the future. Thank you for your understanding!

Hey Alice, does this also include homestuck original tunes IE iconic things like Doctor or Black? because idk how to even go about contacting the creators of those and its literally notes i've inputting myself (my program doesnt let me use midis directly)
EDIT: Oh yeah its a leitmotif. HEY IM USING DOCTOR IN A SOng lmao so idk how to go about asking permission and stuff... since this thing will include mostly original melodies with the exception of that one iconic homestuck tune to say like "hey im a homestuck song" yknow? Idk its an Album song more so than a flash i would think at this point since the title i was planning was "Our Final Hour" as a Calliope alternate to Eternally Served Cold (since there wasnt one on cherubim. i think calliope deserves a big epic song like that anyways.)
Also! If anyone wants to shoot me any ideas for music im really good at writing things for CHARACTERS SPECIFICALLY. For instance DAMARA. I wrote the song Rust Witch thats on the beforus album (if you wanna take a peak hehehe). So if theres anything with her involved in the future give me LOADS OF NOTICE SO I CAN GET STARTED ON THAT STUFF. Hell you can use Rust Witch too if you wanted because im giving full permission of my music to be used for this project. Even if its old and from tindeck (forgottenfang) or soundcloud (caled fwelsh) Be sure to let me know on skype (forgotten-fang) though since im on that more than anything. It feels better than posting things publically because i like my songs to be almost like... magic tricks if you know what im saying. like HEY SURPRISE. also it saves me from writing huge paragraphs like these.
But yeah if you want me to do anything specific shoot me a message on skype and i'll get started as soon as i can.
ps i have bpd so getting things done becomes a minor issue so please give me lots of notice to account for bad depressive spells. thank you guys <33

Caledfwelsh, I am not at all musical so I can't give advice, but I'm really enjoying this peek into the musical process that you've given me with the chance to listen to works in progress.
