Artist commentary:

Wights End: (booklet commentary)

Selene already has a bunch of music, so I was thinking of ways to put a unique spin on the idea. The answer was jazz. The answer is ALWAYS jazz. Anyway, everything in the song was built off of the main bass riff that manages to hit every single note on its way down. Trying to build chords around that was a challenge, and melodies around those chords even more so. I eventually landed on something I liked, but it took a lot of trial and error.

Wights End, Nights, and keyboard cait: (YouTube premiere live chat)

Wights End: anyways, not time for jazz
*now

nights: The opposite of taxes

NyarVAthotep: sensual sax
noted

Wights End: yeah, the only good sax VST I had. it's surprisingly hard to find half decent saxophone VSTs.

nights: Speaking of leitmotifs any time I suspect there is one , I usually think I'm just delusional
About oceanfalls music I mean

Wights End: there's some motifs to selene songs in here, but they're pretty loose

nights: Glad jazz is just loosely related to her and Lune lmao

NyarVAthotep: guy whos only heard homestuck music: this is just like drawing dead

cait: i come from the future. this is the famous "black cat" motif

nights: This is because lune is secretly a black cat

Wights End and Nights: (YouTube premiere live chat during Rondo of the Crimson Prince)

Freddy Vera: This album can be used in a fighting game, like skullgirls maybe

Wights End: Black Cat was really inspired by Skull Girls music actually

nights: That's hwy we need to maike the oceanfalls fighting game...
