That quiz showed me pretty quickly that my knowledge of Homestuck discography is downright wikipedic: that is to say, OK but incomplete and often outright inaccurate. So rather than posting my guesses, the spoiler tag contains another smidgeon of inane Markov titling. but really for what purpose would anyone just listen to the last like 2 minutes of Eternity Served Cold by itself? I've done that several times before it was used in the flash. It is pretty much its own independent thing, and it fits nicely with Savior of the Waking World and Savior of the Dreaming Dead as a sort of conclusion to a musical trilogy. I do wish it were titled after that pattern, though. I was running the markov chain generator again, and it revealed to me what I believe the title should have been: "Savior of the Furthest Ring." The computer has spoken!

Hey so, you know that bit in Flare (album version) around 1:40 where a new instrument comes in, like high pitched tinkling bells or something? It also appears in the Flare section of Solar Voyage.
Does... anyone have sheet music for that instrument's part?
I've spent the entire day trying and failing to transcribe it. I've tried everything. I've looked at every Flare transcription I can find (none seem to have it), I've opened it up in spectral pitch analysis... I even heavily filtered the frequencies, managed to isolate the instrument on its own, opened the isolated part up in a pitch analysis tool and set it to display by music notes... no luck. I mean, by doing that I get down something that sounds fairly close to how it sounds in the track itself, but for some reason in the software the pitches display oddly aligned, almost between notes, and there are lots of repeated notes with different strengths... I think that there's a lot of reverb and delay filters employed or something which are muddying the pitch analysis and making it hard to tell what is a distinct note and what is an echo. Every time I've tried getting it down I've ended up with a complex mess of clashing notes that never sounds quite right, and when I try to correct it by ear I just flounder.
If anybody has any sort of access to a transcription for that part, or another way to get that transcribed, it'd be a lifesaver. I'm half considering straight up asking Plazmataz for a midi of that section but I think I might be unlikely to receive one.

I remembered a few of the songs on the guessing game that I'd forgotten the name of. One is Teal Hunter, another is Guardian V2, and I think Fushia Moonrise is one of the songs as well (I thought it sounded like it was from Beforus). Also, a Musical Obvious Thing I Missed: There is a song on Lofam 3 called Scabbard that I only just realised is a reference to Unsheath'd from Volume 5. That explains the names.

Someone should do freestyle rapping over Stride. That would be pretty sweet IMO.
Also this quiz is ridiculously hard lol, even aggregate answers are still leaving out a very good chunk. Also I messed up, I meant Phantom Echoes instead of Elf Shanty, I just realized this

If there's something confirmed by AutoDevote, it needs to be Pilot Light, Irradiated, Rectify, Electric Fireflies, or Downtime. His full album isn't on xzaz's list (thanks for making that btw), and I think every song in the thing is at least mentioned on it. Only those songs have been used on other albums which then showed up on the list.

I was listening to some of the Homestuck Sound Test songs, and I found one of the ones from the quiz that I didn't know, called Non Compos Mentis. Apparently it's by Bill Bolin, which is probably why we didn't know it.

It does indeed, from 2:18 to 2:33. Also, in my last post I was talking about the Homestuck Sound Test album.

We all want to hear this song, the original full version of it, so why don't they give it to us? Are they saving it for something more special than Volume 10? I mean, will it be realised somewhere else? Or are they just enjoying trolling us? X)

X) it'll be released if toby ever finishes it it was legitimately going to be on volume 10 but he was too busy and, really, undertale or whatever else toby is doing dev-wise is a lot more time-worthy than penumbra phantasm

By combining all known lists, consulting with a few people on the /r/homestuck discord, and checking several myself, I've managed to reduce the list to just FIVE unknown songs. Of these five: - Three I know for a fact are lofam4 submissions.
- One of them - the midnight crew cover - I believe is also lofam4.
EffinCoy seemed to think the song was called H0nest Man, although there's no (public) song with that name. theh0nestman is the singer of Aquasex Renegade apparently. And yeah, he does sound like the singer here.
- One of them xzaz outright stated ought to be guessable, but not a single person has gotten it. A couple clues: it's been released already, and despite the generic strings, it is NOT an eidolonorpheus song.
The full list: pastebin.com/raw/8G7VctEg. I believe there are no mistakes in this list.
Also, for convenience, the 5 unidentified songs: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/183608682/unidentified.mp3. In order, they are lofam4, unknown generic strings song, lofam4, unknown (but presumed lofam4), and lofam4. Also holy shit everyone do check out the cool and new web comic album when it releases 7/2. There's gonna be a hype stream the night before too.

also for the record, my including lofam4 songs, while unfair, isn't anything new on past games i put things from colours and mayhem and lofam3 prior to their release plus things that were much, much harder to guess. you want some screamcatcher?

Sorry to keep posting these asides, but in case anyone is interested RJ is streaming work on music commissions. He picked his first title off the Markov chain-generated title list: Sweet Dreams of the New Extreme. You can see it here: www.twitch.tv/spellmynamewithabang

Hmm, I wish I'd taken part in the music fragment quiz when it was first posted now. No idea about the remaining ones, except that yes, that does sound like theh0nestman's voice in that one.
You planning to do any more of these, xzaz?
Edit: And I would have got Non Compos Mentos straight away had I taken part, because I went out of my way to locate it a while back when I was looking for the origin of the motif that appears in Descend. Darn, should have taken part (although generally my ability to recall specific track names is fairly bad, I'd definitely have got a fair few of them).
