(Continued from Yes, So Good)
Let's move on to The March of the One True Juggalo, the Gamzee song. This one has, like the others, it has a weird story.
It's insanely fast for its nature because I made each song's tempo a different multiple of 5 between 100 and 155 because I am an actual good person. I make my tempos multiples of 5 so it isn't impossible for people to determine them. Like, I don't know what's going through people's heads when they, presumably deliberately, set their song tempo to 123.856. Like, how are people supposed to work with those songs in that case? Yeah.
This song also has key signature gimmicks where each song is in a key signature one half-step higher than the previous, I guess? But I haven't noticed anyone themselves notice it. I mean, obviously I know most people don't have perfect pitch, but still, you'd expect someone to notice that if, maybe if that album was more popular.
I think I used only one actual Gamzee song in this because, again, as with Equius, he doesn't have a lot of actual musical material, but I did use a lot of Purple Bard in this, which is another good song that's kind of a longtime favorite of mine because it's from coloUrs and mayhem.
Yeah. A pretty weird and hectic song that isn't a march in the slightest! This song isn't even a little bit like a march because I am that bad at song names. Even when I come up with a dumb song name, I can't make a song actually stick to that song name because I'm that bad at songs.
Oh yeah, I used Let's All Rock the Heist for some reason. I completely forget why I used that. People were like, hey, why did you use that song? And I'm like, hell if I remember. At least the song Let's All Rock the Heist actually blends there, even if it's out of place. It does fit relatively well.
Oh yeah, this song also has five seconds of a thing from Beforus. I don't remember why I thought I had to squeeze that thing in.
Oh yeah, also has like three seconds of Purple Tyrant, which is an immensely catchy song that there's a really good remix of at le canrival on Volume 8, but I only used a few seconds of that for some reason. I don't remember why. I could have made this a Purple Tyrant remix, but my mind was like, "no" to that opportunity for some reason. That probably just led to a bunch of confusion instead.
But... what do you expect from a song about Gamzee? The character whose very existence is a running gag and a lot of people are like, no no no no no, Gamzee should be a serious character. And I see why people say that, but... I think he is a funny joke a lot of times, how things about him are really hand-wavy. I do think that's amusing, unlike a lot of other people.
Yeah, I forgot that I actually did things with drums. I hate writing drumlines. They're hard and boring, and I always do it with trial and error.
