Wake up moots - new Incarnate/Moon!Hector vibe is dropping!

I can't explain how/why this song applies to Incarnate!Hector, and what it represents from his character development, YET. (Trust me it'll make sense in due time - just avoiding spoilers for now 😏.) But this song itself is such a wonderful blast from the past and I needed to share it with you all, especially within the context of my fanfic.

One of my most favorite things about a lot of songs made about/inspired by Fresh is the amount of synths used. Synthesizers are electronic instruments that have their own unique sort of sounds, and they’re very different from the more traditional instruments. They’re still instruments, of course, but they’re a very different type; they’re synthetic. Artificial.

Fresh isn’t a skeleton. He’s a parasite that pilots skeletons. He pretends to be things he’s not. He’s very different from others, like how synths are very different from traditional instruments. Some might even say that he’s not a real person, like how some may say synths aren’t real instruments, but synths still make sound and are used in music, and Fresh is still a living being with his own thoughts and desires.

It’s also specific types of synths that I associate with Fresh. Like synths that have more treble (deeper, more bass-y synths remind me more of Error), which I can’t really explain why exactly it reminds of Fresh more than just any kind of synth, other than it’s what I’ve heard in a lot of Fresh songs, and that it’s kinda what I associate with how I imagine his voice is like, and it Just Makes Sense™️.

It’s also usually upbeat, fast-paced songs with those synths that I associate with Fresh the most (and it makes me very happy seeing fanmade Fresh songs have those sorts of elements to them), because he’s a very Upbeat and fun type of character, but there’s also similar music that sort of portrays his more serious and scary sides; his truer sides. Fast-paced music that sounds more intense, and makes me picture fight scenes, or scenes where Fresh is chasing down his next host <3

Guitar Picks

For me, this is the only thing that matters when you play music—a guitar pick, and the guitar that defines your sound you play on to use it. I was barely five when poetry changed my life forever. Although the title of the record like sand that the winds of time had swept off my mind, the poem ‘Seven Black Birds’ is still ringing in my ear to this day. Mom handed me a book and flipped the pages…

I don't know when I got obsessed with the silly little band of theater kids wearing masks- but the Storyteller just has one of the coolest designs that I HAD to draw it (despite the fact I haven't drawn an actual finished piece in months)

Ya know, one thing I think is really cool about Epic: The Musical is that it kinda returns The Odyssey back to its roots. Let me explain that.

So The Odyssey was originally a sung poem passed orally between singers called rhapsodes for generations before it was written down. It is this written version of essentially a really long song that would eventually become the text that we know of called The Odyssey. The Odyssey that we know is just one version of a larger piece of musical communal storytelling.

These days when people interact with The Odyssey it’s usually as a book (that’s probably not even read aloud) instead of as a musical performance. Aka most people who have read The Odyssey have never heard The Odyssey.

It’s also more static. The Odyssey is the “true” version, everything else is an adaptation at best. It’s no longer considered a communal story in which anyone can be an author.

Then Epic comes along. Like any adaptation it does contribute to as close as we can get to that original communal storytelling, but also, by being a musical, it does what only musical adaptations of The Odyssey can do. It makes The Odyssey a musical performance again, the way it originally was thousands of years ago.

And I just think that’s neat.

uendo's character theme is SO clever cause the first time you hear it, you notice all these odd shifts and feel like it's a little all over the place, but after the Twist, you realize these are distinct parts for each alter.

i tried to throw together what i mean with the intro - after this section they all kinda build over each other, symbolizing the shared consciousness!

This verse alone in Kendrick’s 6:16 in LA is better than anything in Drake’s discography omg
