Homestuck Vol.8 - 32 Infinity Mechanism

[@SamsUndertale]

I love how it sounds like it starts in the middle of a song. Like you've stumbled on something monumental and will never see the full picture of.

[@easypeasypiano6118]

Something that's been going on for quite a while before you stumbled upon it? Maybe even an infinity?

@@evelyngoldman3547 What no. That's just a running theme in homestuck, like that's the whole thing with lord english. The whole ensuring own creation which ensures his own destruction ad infinitum.

[@porygon4023]

That's how it feels getting into Homestuck several years after it ended and its fandom became less active.

[@Absenteeee]

The animation in the comic gave the song a different feel. It's supposed to be the beat mesa, capable of creating a massive rift, but I can only think about the animation, where we were flying through skaia looking at kids through clouds

[@DSHC224]

+gamingLegacies It's appropriate either way, no? The Beat Mesa and its parallel constructs are infinity mechanisms in the sense that they can scratch a session, as is Skaia an infinity mechanism in the sense that its purpose is to create universes over and over. To infinitely create stable reality throughout paradox space as stable reality is infinitely destroyed throughout paradox space.

[@andrewroberts1508]

I hope that Hussie will create more Infinity mechanisms as he makes new comics, and when he ends have all of them just scratch MSPA

the violin part gets me every time...

[@cognitiveAfflatus]

I felt like I had heard it before, it might be from another song, but I have no idea which.

[@djracem8579]

I have too; it was a song from when I was younger and it was a song by Dan-o songs. You're not able to see it without buying it but I got it somehow and this is the song (not trying to rip money away from him; go buy his music if you think it's good. It gives you also royalties to use those songs you bought in your videos!): danosongs.com/music/danosongs.com-kira-fled-the-district.mp3

Djracem It does sound similar, but it's not quite the same. Not bad music though.

[@zanite8650]

To me, it felt like the beginning of the next bit of the story. Despite being the end of the intermission. You saw the future events in the clouds and saw Jane waking up in Prospit, showing the Alpha session had begun.

[@Ialsowriteandread0291]

This one always gave me a sense of nostalgia... Every time

[@spiritedconjurer]

Same.

[@timaeusTechnopath]

yeah

[@jojogape]

I just realized the pic is a metaphor. Red and green. LOHAC and the Scratch. Time and Space colliding.

[@DiomedesIsHit]

Nice. Don't forget the cherub metaphor, either.

[@jojogape]

True! That only makes it better...

[@DiomedesIsHit]

Come to think of it, Time and Space are always related to green and red, regardless of the session. Dave and Jade. Aradia and Kanaya. Damara and Porrim. Caliborn and Calliope.

[@naomabobian5098]

DiomedesIsHit Red and green are complementary colours; they complement each other. This implies that time and space are always intertwined. Hooray for deeper meanings

They're also the colors of Christmas. shit. lets be santa

@@Mathster321 to be fair i think at least one pair of those are the same basic melody, one just remixes the other, and honestly you could probably just say all of them cause they're all bangers from what i remember

[@halkon4412]

"11y ago" fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[@JohnVance]

This was my experience as well.

[@Yrrzy]

This track perfectly represents the beat mesa and, considering the beat mesa is a universal hard-reset button and all the implications of that, that makes this absolutely amazing.

[@coolman5242]

Aside from John's theme(Doctor) and it's remixes, this by far my favorite Homestuck theme... its such a relaxing yet upbeat song that it's hard to explain how awesome it is.

[@Szy96335]

I need a extended version of this song's beginning. So awesome

[@talonzero2595]

just think.....What if this was what played during [S] Cascade ? I mean sure the song is too short but.... actually nevermind you dont fuck with cascade Cascade fucks with you

[@fellower]

The guitar transition near the end is amazing

[@nicksterminator6]

I love this song. It has been on repeat on my iPod for several days now. I love the very mechanical, dark, epic sound of it. The background drums sound like a very large clock

[@LlyonaFang]

I used to listen to this song all the time around 2014 when I was a kid and used to basically live in my dad's office doing artwork on a really old apple laptop over summer break, so this song makes me really nostalgic for those times. I remember I used to have a ton of rotating homestuck wallpapers on that laptop too lol

Thing about Megalovania is that it's a remake of the final boss battle theme [of the same name] for an "Earthbound Halloween Hack," so it's supposed to loop somewhere before it fades out.

Favorite part is at 1:56

Sky Usanin I think it makes sense because it acts as a transition element in the song, just like how the Scratch transfers the universe from B1 to B2.
