Witch's Cadence: (booklet commentary)
You’ve seen a snake in your boot, now get ready for: a coup by your snake?? I really wanted the first major song on the album to be an utter banger, (at least as much as I could manage) and when I started on this one I knew it had to take that spot. This song’s sole existence really is only because of one thing, I was browsing the homestuck music wiki (hi guys :DDD) and came across the song “Dogfight”, which if you haven’t heard it, (and a horrid amount have not) it is an utterly brazen song of epic proportions. This song in of itself caused me to entirely rework this album from the ground up, and that is not a joke. For my song I took a lot of concepts from “Dogfight”, like the orchestral start, breaking out into a rocking groove, and the trumpets (Oh god the trumpets!!!). I started the song off with the “Void of the Moon” motif by Levc. This motif has mostly been correlated with Derse in the Desynced music canon, so I thought it made sense as a scene setter. I then had the little square like synth that comes in play some of Spad3s track “Snake-Eyes!”. All of the songs for Act 1 are for a specific Jack in Desynced; this one is for Snake Eye, the dragon session’s Jack. We don’t know a lot about him yet, other than he was a big troublemaker (if you couldn’t tell, that’s why I referenced “Snake-Eyes!” here, lol). The trumpet that comes in is played by me on my midi keyboard. And all of the guitar bits are played by me live aswell. Also of course there’s a devilish use of the “Black” motif for the transition to hype rock. I think I did an okay job at the guitar parts, I mean, it’s no “Dogfight” level of guitar solo but it still sounds cool, lol. I’m really happy with how everything comes together for the finale of the song, ending on the “Desynced Anthem” hits just right y’know? Overall this has become like my second favorite song I’ve made ever.
