do you remember Mechanic Panic and did RJ ever get permission to stick that on Jailbreak vol I? Or did he just cram it on as a bonus track and never tell you?

Michael Guy Bowman: (Bowmantown Discord, excerpt) 7/24/2017

I let him use Mechanic Panic, it was maybe the first thing I wrote for hs. I really wish I hadn't ok'd it, Jailbreak was a nail in the coffin for us.

I was never clear on the status of the Homestuck for the Holidays album or any of those related projects. I spent comparatively little time on Skype and was out of the loop on a lot of stuff. I'm amazed I got as much music done as I did before 2011, I was still busy with other stuff.

I love mechanic panic tbh

He didn't make it for the album, it was an unused homestuck track that the slipped on as a bonus track because it was chiptune

this was something i wrote using a couple of 3xosc channels in FL Studio right when i joined the project, back in the "loops only" phase

not really super fond of it, but i like the beat at 0:26
it should have just been all that with a melody or something
