Tensei - Cascade (Director's Cut)

A slightly updated/different version of my section of Cascade. The most notable differences are the altered melodies at the start and numerous production improvements such as rerecorded guitars, improved string sections, etc.

[@greatwhalegod4638]

Compared to the one that was used in Cascade this is almost a different song. The new melodies and more prominent strings give it a different feel, but it still keeps what it had in the flash.

Remember, most events on Homestuck happened because Jack didnt want to wear a hat

[@texasred8424]

based on the cyclical and paradoxical nature of the story you could say that about basically every single event in it and it would still stay true

Holy shit Tensei. Just...wow. Your songs are, for lack of another word, powerful. Really powerful. And it's amazing.

[@thelovelypenguin]

I also wanna thank you for doing this. Not only was it the best song in EoA5, I have to say that this is probably my favorite Homestuck song of all time. :3

[@Stizzalith]

+The Lovely Penguin How is it the best song in EoA6 if it played in EoA5?

[@xXErr4rXx]

+MemoryOfDarkness tensei's heir of grief was in eoa6

Oh man, this is awesome! I'm surprised this wasn't higher up on the list when I searched for "Homestuck Cascade".

This was the first "Heir of Grief" in the soundtrack.

By far, you are the best homestuck musician. Your music is beautiful AND badass, nothing but respect.

[@cubikanime]

God damn, I want to make a remix of this song using the last ten seconds of it because the cascade leitmotif with this awesome beat sounds incredible. Do you think it's a good idea ?

[@GavinB03]

ephraka that sounds awesome!

[@mysterycubes]

beautiful.

[@woodfur00]

This version has a lot of good things the flash doesn't, but I miss the complete stop around 2:35 more than I can say.

[@AlexNikkiClicky]

the reason its there is because the flash was divided to 5 different flashes and a program to load them all because it was WAYYY to long to be in one file, and when switching flashes, the audio would kinda glitch, so they just used a complete stop when different things happen, for example, before the green sun appears.

[@tatermaniac9319]

play this and [S] descend at the same time

[@CookieFonster]

important fact: this is not called cascade (alpha)

[@raptorcharly8055]

Important fact: Cascade (Alpha) is a song and here on KZbin it has a fucking amazing thumbnail.

EarthStuckTale From what I've heard, this was a remix way after Descend came out. I guess it was remade to fit the flash.

Are you Toby Fox?

[@minepose98]

No, he's the person who made this song.

He worked with Toby Fox for the Homestuck version of Megalovania and other songs for Homestuck, but isn't Toby Fox himself, hope this helps.
