MY MIDI MUSIC MASTERPOST

Alright. There may be even more out there that isn’t on here. This is a compilation of all the Tumblr posts of my music, and I intend on updating this post as time goes on.

All my music (circa 2023, and probably for the indefinite future) is rooted in midi composition, generally written in MuseScore (so they all have corresponding sheet music too) and edited over long periods of time to have varying soundfonts or... y’know, stuff.

ALBUMS (SUNSETTERS):

The Mythology of Empathy: the Sunsetters debut album. eight songs in nine tracks, mostly short songs, mostly hard rock. around 40 minutes. has “Rise of Her Rain” on it, a twelve-minute prog journey. with @rapturebones. - Drowning Under the Influence, introductory punk. - Burning Books, hard rock philosophy. - Hidden in the Trees, a weird one Part 1. - Memento Mori, a weird one Part 2, now a hard rock jam. - Perfection, an angry song about abuse. - Is This All? softer alt rock. - The Last Sunset, grief in electric piano. - Rise of Her Rain, a prog epic. - Reverie, duet for acoustic guitar and string.

Summer Sucks: the second Sunsetters album. five songs in an epic 95-minute symphony about apocalypse and the tarantella (the catchiest song alive condemning all who hear it to dance until they die). ambitious as fucking hell, almost like a joke taken seriously. with @rapturebones. - The Inferno Begins, The Metal One. - Pig Bruiser, The Bouncy One. - Found the Fountain of Mab, The Pretty One. - Tired Anthem Part 1, Part 2, The Big One. - Clowns Who Set The Sun, The Last One.

We Excavate: the third Sunsetters album. nine songs, decently lengthed songs, 77 minutes total. more of a proper synth-rock album with jazzy moments and moody moments, depicting a long walk to the bottom of the sea (and a bit lower than that too). with @rapturebones - Submerged Within, synth intro. - Oxen of the Sea, to be condemned by the sea gods... - We Excavate, to witness the gods eat... - The Lonely Seas, to journey alone through kelp forests... - Already Out of Breath, to maintain composure in the belly of a whale... - The Sinking Song, to be lost in your own eyes... - Siren of the Abyss, to catch your breath a moment... - Lowest Point, to offend the Earth and have your soul ripped from you... - In the Sunken Blue, ...is to be the modern man.

No Entry: the fourth Sunsetters album, their first with a new guitarist. twelve songs. shortest album in years, 65 minutes total. dark prog rock, tells the story of a conspiracy theorist who finds a journal in the woods. with @rapturebones - A Sick Story, begin. - Prophetic to the Blind, anthemic opener song. - Towers and Citadels, moody interlude. - Contract Desk Jockey (Shut up and Play), angry characterisation. - Being Watched, chill doom metal. - The Boy in the Lighthouse, suddenly a cute poppy song. - Electric Distant, chill instrumental. - Death of the Author, hard doom metal. - Follow Me unto the Brink, ominous interlude. - The Man Who Wasn’t There, dark dance of the slender man. - Colors of Grace, thrash metal. - Best Regards, jazzy proggy closer.

NO ENTRY: the fourth Sunsetters album is not ready yet, and its details are shrouded in... wait, what? What’s going on here? (me solo. soon!!!!!)

ALBUMS (COESTTS):

Reinventing the Wheel: the first Coestts album. This is essentially my first “solo” album, though Coestts have their own fiction. This album also is not finished yet. But I’ve released enough songs from it, so I’d may as well organize them. - Recovery, an intro piece that sticks with me. - Inquiry, a Finnegans Wake scene, mostly actually written by @rapturebones. - The Sounds of March in D# Minor, going somewhere fast. - A Swing, playing with rhythm and ending on mellotron. - The Hermit Part 1, the Coestts version of Blue Ghost Ages. So basically, the non-NES version of a song given below. This one was released to give context to Part 2. - The Hermit Part 2, taking the key signature and tempo of Part 1 as a base, predictive algorithm MuseNet gave me this main riff and I whipped up a song around it. - The Crawl (in F minor), a conclusive piece that haunts me. Variations on repetition.

ALBUMS (OTHER):

The PLAN 31 Official Soundtrack: Music for an Ace Attorney story of mine. Currently has several songs.

SINGLE SONGS:

- Half-A Step, rambly off-beat groove. - Bits and Boops, manic midi blues, very cute. - Chill Room, a calming Sega Genesis sound. - Nightfall, revision of Chill Room. - Minotaur of Stone, a piece for the villain of a game. - Groove in the Gallery, this one turns into a jam. - Fake Music For Fake Friends, an excerpt from Summer Sucks. - The Egg Dance, an excerpt from Summer Sucks. - Breathless, a different take on the first half of Almost Out of Breath. - Dark City, a Coestts experiment. - Harmonic Condenser Enginium (The Mole), a song I wrote while studying Finnegans Wake. drum, bass, and synth. kind of new-wave. - Convocation Jam, a study on the motifs of a bird-monster from the Fear Mythos, hard rock, written in a day.  - Blind Man, a study on the motifs of a memory-monster from the Fear Mythos, hard rock, written in a day. - Topography Genera Jam, a study in a weird rhythm and some nice synth grooves, inspired by a story a friend wrote in one of my canons. - EAT and Five, a post-processed take on the Genera jam. - Bahnhofstrasse, a James Joyce poem given a mini epic. - THE BLUE GHOST AGES. AS HOURS PASS. the first Homestuck fansong I did. instrumental, ruminating, about hermit John in the Epilogues. original composition. - THEY BRING YOUR DOOM. (MY ANBROIDS ARE SLOWER.) the second Homestuck fansong I did. takes Anbroids and goes a bit slower to dance with it. - three in the morning. featuring trafuris. another Homestuck fansong, this time with spoken-word vocals as @trafuris reads a poem I wrote, playing the part of the dead cherub. - Dededid, a cover and jam around King Dedede’s theme from the Kirby games. this was a fairly early song for me so it could probably use more polish. - Pokey Means Business... and Business is Good! a cover of Pokey Means Business from Earthbound. simple as that.

DEMOS:

- ???, this is a preview of an upcoming Sunsetters thing, so this entry will not remain forever. - Joy, one of the earlier songs I wrote (in one sitting) that somehow says a whole cohesive thing. I am likely to do something with it. - The God Machine, an old demo that was supposed to go on Summer Sucks but got spliced up into motifs instead. - The Cremator, my old mood demo for No Entry. May still end up on the album in some form. - Thus Wept the Bald Eagle, Lindsay’s old mood demo for No Entry. May still end up on the album in some form. - Ghost, an experiment with the Sonic & Knuckles soundfont. - Oxen of the Sea (Live), proof of concept for fictional “live” versions of fictional songs. Fun dance rendition of Sunsetters’s Oxen. - pfdemo, based around Power Fantasy from the Homestuck album Cherubim. I have done more work on this one but I’m not gonna release it for a while. - homestuck krunky beat, the main Homestuck theme but with a krunky beat. simple as that. - HCE 64, Harmonic Condenser Enginium but with Kirby 64 soundfont, as an experiment. - cute punk demo. it’s a demo. it’s punk. it’s cute. - a bunch of demos in one post. there’s a song that wound up on We Excavate, and then a lot of other songs that haven’t seen any further release yet.

Well finally Ranunculus is out. (promotion ver, okay, it was short)

General opinions ... Really liked the song and some arrangements out there. I love the drums, they’re the most incredible part out there with some Die riffs that add so much soul to the song. Bass doesn’t really stand out in this studio ver and I’m sad about it because it implies of course, simplicity within the new music... okay, well done fxckers, you did what you wanted lol  The lyrics I like them too. I am kind of surprised because it was so mild and gentle of what we’re all used. Even in the most mild DEG stuff we see some kind of development, or some..raging, or epic pace behind? That wasn’t here on this song imo, that’s what surprised me the most. The beginning part was weird too, something I’m not used to for DEG. Reminds me of course, of very prog bands. But not prog metal which is what I prefer tbh. I still want to ...leave place to surprise, I still...I still have some faith. But I know I won’t feel this album like say, the latest one.

The video? I hated it, it’s uncomfortable BUT in a different way of what I expect of DEG. I won’t see it again while enjoying the song. I think it creates some disturbance because I don’t get the video, the superfluous stuff happening there, too much to my eyes to such a mild song with detail. I think there is a ranunculus right? But it’s with a lot of low exposure on the video, can’t really see... and I liked some of the paintings hanging on there. Literally a messed up circus, with Kyo being the only clown there, I don’t like the vkei items of today, to be honest I became so sick of it. It totally seems like the rest of the band gives a fuck about those disguises lmao. It’s maybe me but I feel some perturbating imbalance.  I don’t understand kyo’s looks? Why is he wearing a nasal cannula???lmao.Nah, won’t watch that again. Even if the color scheme wasn’t a threat to my eyes and was good.

Me: I don’t think it’s fair to characterise me like that - I think my taste in music is pretty mainstream, for the most part.
