Thomas Ferkol: (composer of The Lyrist, Tumblr)

HOMESTUCK MUSIC. FACTS.

DID YOU KNOW: the Lyrist was originally called The Muse’s Lyre. When tracks had to be made in pairs however, each pair (or group) of musicians decided on dichotomous but stylistically similar names for their pieces. The original idea was to have it as The Lyre and The Liar (or The Muse’s Lyre and The Lord’s a Liar), but turns out Caliborn isn’t much of a liar, really, so it became The Lyrist and The Lordling!

Also, DID YOU KNOW: Toby Fox is not actually a Fox? HAH, just pulling your leg. Of course he is!

#I really liked those names #why couldn't caliborn have been a big ole liar too
