Artist commentary:

Tensei: (composer, booklet commentary)

First of all, I'm not an EDM producer.

So I made this track called The King in Red. Here's the song:
PSYCH, that's the wrong song!

Sweet Fruity Loops - I use that.
Supa hot beats - I drop that.
John and Aradia - I ship that.

Tensei: (composer, Tumblr)

Anonymous asked: Also, call the song "Ascend", if there's any song that's earned the right it's that one

Credit for the song name goes here!

Edit: Apparently this was makinporing, the mod from the /r/Homestuck subreddit? If so, cool!
