favorite songs from the ost?

Post by overThinker » Wed Apr 29, 2020 11:29 am

i'm really interested to see what others have to say regarding this because homestuck music was essentially my first creative outlet and is still pretty important to me. i remember learning to play moonsetter when i was twelve and being so proud of myself, lmao. my current favorites are probably even in death, doctor (or any variation), or dark rose/black hole/green sun.

if i have to choose one i would say without a doubt derse dreamers (at x1,25). don't know why exactly, it just mixes the violin with the beat so well.
second close are the three versions of showtime cause, joder, the feels. they hurt my soul.
the third position would go to even in death (i like both, but Morra's mix is, imo, better than the original)
then there would be a bunch other like Savior of the waking world, you killed my father (prepare to die), beatup, time on my side, umbral ultimatum, doctor, of gods and witches that i love but not that much.

derse dreamers is definitely good, it's one of the few songs of the ost that can stand alone as a song without a need for any associations with flashes or plot points. i love savior of the waking world too but that's what makes me unable to just enjoy it as a song, it feels like it needs the accompanying animation to induce its full effect.

also i forgot to mention ugly betty earlier lol

I'm personally unsure when it come's to this. I have a lot of favorites, but I either change my mind about them or just forget they even exists. I think for now my favorites are "Sburban Jungle", "Time on my side" , "Heir of Grief", "Fiduspawn, Go!", "Rex Duodecim Angelus" and "Moonsetter".

Black is a classic. More recently I've gotten into Superego from Colours and Mayhem, ominous moody songs are exactly my cup of tea. Speaking of moody, I'll insist until the day I die that Ace of Trump is one of if not the best songs in the entire Homestuck library. It's even better with rain effects.

I probably would say that Pendulum,Clockstopper and Orchid Horror from Colours and Mayhem Universe B are very underapreciatted and honestly should receive more love

Never stopped to think of my favorite song before. I have listed my favorite albums but in terms of songs...
It's probably a lot haha, but I can highlight Gold Pilot, Even in death (T'Morra's ver), Dawn of Man, Temporal Piano, Three in the morning (any ver).... ahaha

My absolute favorite album is Cherubim though.

Galaxy Hearts, Black, Crystamanthequins, and Purple Bard.

Gold Pilot, Fuschia Ruler, Cascade, and Eternity Served Cold have also always been really up there for me.

i really love three in the morning (aftermath), i think it does really well at establishing an environment, so to speak. aside from that, though, i like cyan beast and green ghost a lot! that might be due to character biases, though, and i like gamegrl and trollcops (if im remembering the name right). (if i can say a hs^2 song, i LOVE now i'm a villain.)

Orchid Horror <3

Doctor is a good choice though, I get so much nostalgia from that song, that act 4 walkaround was crazy when I first played it...

I love basically anything from volume 9, but ugly Betty is probably my top favorite. I also really like Homosuck Anthem... its funny but something about the chill piano music with SO MANY SHITTY SOUND EFFECTS just makes me really quite happy!
