Artist commentary:

Guffy: (Bandcamp about blurb)

the title isnt any specific reference, but i wanted something along the lines of who am i expectin' or thats what im expectin' and i just shoved the class in so its like. classpect. class aspect. yknow?

i was listening to the tony hawk pro skater 3 soundtrack while at work yesterday and just went "oh i love these more down low tracks that arent like heavy rock" and thought, hey that'd be a dope kinda thing while looking at a character select menu.

also thought about the MVC2 character select theme but it ended up being not too much like it lmao

got that nice baseline, added a bit of auto wah to it, and mostly left it as the loop bc thats what a bunch of them rap tracks in thps3 are like

i have NEVER done anything with a wah guitar before. i think its a bit messy, but i both wasnt sure how to do it and didnt have much time before the deadline lmao? deadline is in a few hours as i write this and i started the track maybe 16 hours ago

it felt super empty without having a rap section in there

if i could have, i would have found someone to rap SOMETHING over the top and get some dj ass scratches in, but again deadlines. in the end i just whipped out the trusty speak & spell samples and like. counted with it.

in the back part i got it to spell out every aspect, isnt that neat?

i wanted to do more with troll themes, but i just kinda shoved a rex duodecim angelus in there by the start and end, while the middle gets showtime, aggrieve, beatdown and dissension for the kids.

the horns were the last moment thing i added, and literally add like 15 minutes onto the load time of the session?? its rough out here in pro tools land. i just wanted something to fill space because it felt empty without it, ESPECIALLY the intro.

oh yeah theres also an old vinyl sound going in the background bc there was a texture in those thps3 tracks which was missing and this seemed to give it that? it also helped with the spindown at the end lol

oh also post deadline i added an organ with some homestuck anthem or whatever

mama mia
