Only Hussie could make us feel angry at losing something which literally never existed.
+thekaboominator1 Do you mean the loss of psiionic's life or the animation that used the song?
Shrewstur The animation.
I honestly think we only stood to gain from that, though.
One of the biggest advantages of a large cast is that whenever the pacing begins to slow, you can change focus.
Similarly, if the comic had progressed smoothly, Andrew couldn't have kept up with the pace of his narrative, so he used things like the glitches to slow the pacing.
how do you mean?
That's not true. As Hussie never existed.
I realized why Captors associate with bees. Bees can deliver a mighty sting, but only do so when it's very necessary. And when they sting, *they die* defending what they stand for. Or if they're *LUCKY*, they get TWO chances to attack.
And sollux raising bees in his hive
bee - b - b is the second letter of the alphabet
that could be another one
Plus there is two E's
commetsftw get your double dangs
And both sollux and mituna suffered horrible injuries defending their friends (with sollux half dying as a result of piloting the meteor)
Bless this song and how the "glitches" don't throw off the beat. It makes it so that the song is still pleasant to listen to.
Yeah
I agree. It sounds truly amazing.

Oh God. OH GOD. I just remembered.
Castor and Pollux, the twins of mythology? One was dead the other immortal and the immortal was so heartbroken at the death of his brother their father Zeus put them both up as Gemini so they could be together.
The Psiionic? He lost everyone and was forced to live as a glorified warp drive engine.
Sollux? He tried to save everyone but died of the attempt even though he succeeded.
Mituna? He lost his mind.
oh gog.
Argh
This is about the saddest take on their story and it FUCKING *WORKS*
Another version of the myth has One being the son of Zeus, and the other the son of a mortal (yet still twins somehow). When the mortal Pollux died, Castor begged Zeus to let them share his immortality. He agreed, so they could stay together: six months on olympus, and six in hades.
This connects to sollux's two dreamselves (one near the heavens of skaia, one near the abyss of the furthest ring), and his eventual half-dead status.
Psiionic lost his freedom
Sollux lost his sight
Mituna lost his mind
The worst part is, We will never be able to know what that Flash involving Grimbark Jade and the meteor was.
My bet is that tomorrow's update is going to be that flash without all the glitches.
***** I REALLY hope your right.
BillyBob Shoggoth well it wasn't the flash, but it DID explain things.
BillyBob Shoggoth I was pretty close, I guess...
Remind me, what was it about Grimbark Jade and what meteor?
After years of hating harps in music due to the morning flower alarm, I finally found a song that doesn't make me curl up in a wave of anxiety
FINALLY a person who thinks the morning flower alarm is kind of scary
The greatest flash we never saw.
Yep.
bootypopper Yeah, but it missed 4 minutes of the song/flash because caliborn ruined the cartridge
+Benjamin Engdahl Curse you Caliborn the cherub!
Brendyn Cassara wow never thought that would be used on me...funny...i guess
farmstink buttlass It is!
I really miss being into homestuck. It was my biggest hyperfixation for 3-4 years and then I slowly got disinterested. It's been a few years though, I'm going to try to finish the whole comic. No matter what though, it still holds an incredibly special place in my heart.
Same here friend! I literally just started listening to Homestuck music today, and ended up here cause I loved this one in the past. Happy to announce it still holds up after years of not hearing it. I have been a fan since 2012, but fell out of it years ago too. I miss it, I was thinking of reading it over the summer once my university term ends :D I wish you luck on finishing the comic! Also nice Giorno pfp lol, JJBA has been a current obsession of mine for a few years now and I love it a lot
same here, my hyperfixation comes in waves, i still constantly am a Homestuck fan, just waiting for the next time i get extremely interested again.
i only just got into homestuck about 6-7 months ago and i hope that i stay interested for a long time, i love it so much
I found out about homestuck in 2020 and finished it around the end of 2021 and I still love the comic to death. I wish I were there to experience its peak
Did you manage to finish that herculean story?
//realizes why it's called Pilot
//cries loudly
oh god
read your comment and then realized it
i am dying ; - ;
Equius Zahhak (source : mspa wiki ) "After the Disciple was spared by the E%ecutor, and the Dolorosa sold into slavery, the Ψiioniic was "enlisted in a far worse, if more prestigious service": being grafted to the flagship of the Condesce. He was forced to serve as its Helmsman, directing and powering the engine with his psychic abilities as a living battery. It was during his tenure here that the Condesce apparently grew fond of him, increasing his lifespan with her 'touch' until he finally died as a result of the Vast Glub while traveling back to the troll home planet."

This song also plays during one of the Act 6 Flashes, but I forget which one. I kinda skimmed through most of act 6 to be honest... But I do know the gist of what happened.
***** It plays in [S] Act 6 Act 6 Intermission 1 (I just realised myself :P)

Oh yeah. I remember now XD
The ancestor themes give me too many emotions.
Agreed.
Yeah...
*cough* Iron Infidel *cough*
Can I give you an idea?
They're all ancestor themes.
cough IRON BUTTCHEEKS cough cough ARSE OF STEEL cough cough
AUGH FEELS
All i can think about while listening to this is psiioniic being forced to pilot the ship
After the Condesce extended his lifespan, and all his friends are dead
Remembering what happened to all of them

theres so many fun or important little things that I never noticed
1:20 That part always send chills down my spine.
Thuy Nhi for me it's 2:03
You don't even need to be a stuck to know this song is amazing.
Personally, I am, but this music is better than even the webcomic in my opinion.
Yo. The reason it plays is even more amazing. Sick as fuck.
Amen. I don’t actually read Homestuck but I love the soundtrack.
Captain Spooky Dude you should read it
i dont mean to sound elitist but its really good
the morals made me just a better human in general
sorry about the weird return thing its just a typing quirk
This song make you a stuck
Wow! What a reception this has had! I'm so glad everyone has enjoyed it!
I still listen to this fairly often. You really do make some great stuff
still my favourite song from this album :)
11 years later and still one of the most unique, haunting, and beautiful compositions I‘ve heard
This was one of my favorite songs when I first started reading Homestuck. I had stopped reading it for about three years, then one day RUclips gave me this song in my recommended. I got to relive all of the emotions I had when I first listened to it and first started reading Homestuck, which led me to reread what I had and eventually finish it. It's still one of my favorite songs, probably like in general and not just Homestuck-related and always one of the first songs I recommend to people interested in Homestuck. I could go on and on about how much I appreciate this song, but I think I've gone on a bit already. I'll end by saying that you're super talented and thank you for creating this song! :)
this is one of my favorite songs of all time...is VERY special to me. Brings back so many memories
My mom died in 2012.
I really didn't know how to deal with it. I was scared, and alone, and confused.
I listened to this track every day. It felt comforting. It was like a little bit of order in my chaotic life.
This song helped me cope. And now, every time I listen to it, it makes me think of that time.
this track gave me lots of comfort too im happy it helped you as well❤
the glitch out part is the best
It really adds some nice character to the song!
I see where you’re coming from, but I personally prefer 4:27 where the melody inverts in itself while still staying in line with the overall mood of the song.
First you hear the Signless. Fade in to the execution, things happen, the arrow flies, the sound cuts, this song starts.
0:22 - The Dolorosa, dragged off.
0:50 - The Disciple, into the woods.
1:00 - The Psiioniic, motionless.
1:20 - A hand on his shoulder.
Role credits.

[S] MSPA Reader: Mental Breakdown (2x COMBO!!!)
i just finished homestuck like 20 minutes ago and it was the greatest thing i've ever experienced
same. just finished it like 2 hours ago and i feel really weird right now but i feel very content
I wish I could have that moment back man. Finished it with the community in 2016, discovered and caught up to it right before the final update. I saw its last blink of life.
Still is the greatest thing I experienced, so many years later and there's still nothing like it online. Pretty sure it won't happen again too.
I'm at the 6500s... Excited to see how it ends! I've heard to watch for Collide, and somehow I've dodged spoilers
@@anecro It was insane. I doubt it could happen again on that scale. There's something about a medium being that permissive, an author being that adventurous with style especially early on, and a fan base which had an explosive creativity that made it what it was. You could do a lot to make something similar, but you can't bottle this.
sometimes i think im the only homestuck fan that didn't really like much of it after the trolls got introduced, tumblr had it in a stranglehold and all. still the flashes were like, premium stuff.
*hasnt read or thought about homestuck in literal years* *gets a spontaneous compulsion to listen to all of the best soundtrack jams*
god same lmao
i listened to my old playlist of my favorite songs from the soundtrack a bit ago and got very tempted to reread it. i didnt, because i want my memories of the story being good to remain intact, but it was close
You ever think about the fact that since Psiionic was confirmed to be the battery for the Condense there was proof of Ancestors existing literally sitting right there in Condy’s ship for the other trolls to see and they just never fucking do
i see a lot of symbolism in this song. number one being rose piloting derses moon with the tumor, as she is the seer of light, which has a golden color. number two, is jade having to pilot the golden battleship through the yellow yard. then you got sollux, who’s blood is yellow, who piloted the meteor towards the green sun, which was the result of the tumor. then you got the Ψiioniic, who has yellow blood as well, who was the pilot of the condesces flagship.
AND THEN KANAYA RIDING ROSE :)
@@blakethesnake6686 that caught me off guard ill give you that
Hah.. "Pilot"..
Gold Battery fits better
one of those hs tracks that are great for 2:22am highway drives, and of the ones keenly missed on convenient music apps
I just realised I never knew who made this song. Turns out the creator only contributed this song to homestuck and its fandom. dude made a banger then left
iirc the songs on this album were from a fan song contest (I remember submitting a song that absolutely did not make the final cut lol)
Listening to this brings me back to 2011 when I first discovered Homestuck. Those first 5 acts were such a magical experience, and the crossing over of different narratives and characters' perspectives was so impressively well done I almost thought there would never be anything like Homestuck ever again. It made me totally rethink what I knew about story-telling. It was _this close_ to being a legitimate, modern day epic, on the same scale as Homer's Odyssey, no joke. It's really too bad Hussie shit the bed with the ending. He could have had something really fucking amazing on his hands, but he landed about 30 light years and 840 loose strings off base.
Honestly the more you look at the ending and how the entire story was written to begin with, the more you realize just how incredible the ending was.
@@ramu-silly HS2 sucks, im sorry.
Homestuck is such a major influence on me as a writer and was a huge creative inspiration for me. I was fine with how the comic ended but felt like there could've been more to it... [not gonna count the epilogues and HS^2 bc they're non canon and are stated as such (Beyond canon!!) ] I guess that's where the fan comics come in!
@@voidnoidoid Yeah I'm not a fan of HS^2 because it regresses a lot of the personal challenges that some of the characters from Homestuck overcame during their arc (lookin pretty hard at Jane and Dirk there).
Also homestucks ending was ok but Hussie really left a lot of loose ends that the viewers wanted to see tied up which I think is what really made the ending fall short (the epilogue stuff felt kind of trash honestly, both in the weird and unsatisfying outcomes in the candy vs meat timelines and in the fact is was just dumped out like some hastily written uni essay). Personally, I really liked the Act 8 Team for making a continuation to resolve some of that stuff and their flash here ruclips.net/video/qS9p2gD_Ou4/видео.html really did a really solid job on that. Also honourable mention to Homestuck Act Omega team because that was an cool unofficial continuation of the story too.
There was never any other way that it could've ended. The man interior to the story hated the comic from like 2016, maybe 2015, and nothing was ever planned out at all. It was all live improv, live, uhh, puppet theatre. The price of that, the price.of these specific writing decisions what constitute the comic, you see it paid in its ending.

This song can be for both Sollux and The Psiionic seeing as both used their powers to pilot a vessel
The Psiioniic is Sollux's ancestor.

It is soft and subtle, yet deeply complex; truly a song for broken minds.

*sigh* Is this the point at which I'm obligated to gasp and utter, 'Woah, that's fucking deep!!!! xD'
because it's not, and the song is not 'for broken minds', no matter how broken your analogy on a fucking youtube comment is

@@oliverhoare6779 I'm getting r/iamverysmart vibes
once every year the name of this song pops in my head and i scurry to listen every time. Im back once again after almost 10 years
This and Green Sun are the only two Homestuck songs I still come back to almost 7 years later to listen to from time to time. Incredible to think about how big a part of my teenage years this all was, and how our tightly knit community just fractured there at the end.
This is longer than Jade Mother, Olive Scribe, and Iron Infidel.
No shit Sherlock.
Yeah, but think about that for a minute.
Paris Mickelson HOLY SHIT IT'S BECAUSE THE PSIIONIIC LIVED A LOT OF TIME AHHHHHHH
wait... then the "glitches" could be because the goldbloods are not supposed to live this long
I am sad now
I love this song so much, but I listen to it with earbuds way too loud, but it makes it even better
I need to stop killing me ears
But so amazing
+Jane “Cricket” Crocker
You are right, it does make it better!
Jane Crocker shit dude its so fuckin worth to the point of making yourself deaf
gotta learn some new hand gestures from Nepeta's dancestor
Jane Crocker You aren't killing your ears, you're just helping them go God Tier.
genuineCorn you mean sign language? y'know, what deaf people and mute people use to communicate? coz that's what the "hand gestures" are.
Actually me right now
literally the best song in the whole soundtrack
Why did they have to go so hard for this. Theres entire movies who don't manage to make me feel this much
I don't know why, but whenever I listen to this song, I think of a dark, cold winter night
I think of the ancestors(esprcially the sufferer) look up in the sky fleeing from HIC
hey guys, by the way the composer of this song (first turn fold) has his own youtube if you wanna check out more of his music
ruclips.net/user/firstturnfold
I think this haunting melody is one of my favorites from Homestuck. I keep coming back, years later.
This track is simply beautiful. One of my favorites ever...
this is probably not the first time homestuck has infiltrated my life without me realizing
ive been exposed to the series since i was in 3rd grade,,, and yet i never tried reading it up until this year
seeing this song in a years old playlist and now being obsessed with homestuck really makes me think about how huge it really is
Lol I know this feeling. A few years ago I got into Minecraft modding and saw a homestuck mod and tried it without knowing what it was, and got confused and just removed it. When I read homestuck for the first time, the first thing I did was track down that mod and play it again.
I'm so glad theres still people like you finding it now. It played such an important part in my life like 10 years ago when my friend and me would nerd out about it on mumble/teamspeak everyday and it still is something really special to me now.
Trying to work out my classpect over the years also really helped me understand myself and how I work a lot better too (Mage of Blood here).
oh my god. third grade. i am so glad you did not read it in third grade. wtf
@@evelyntheidiot6 ME TOO
This song always makes me think that the doorbell is ringing and its really frustrating lol. I love it, it's just that every once in a while I forget that the bells are part of the song XD
+Sadie Claire It would be a dream come true.
what if doorbells are actually had multiple keys like a piano
and the tune of gold pilot is actually playable
If that happened, I'm sure tons of Homestucks would take the advantage
its not that expensive to make your own door bell
Iron Infidel - Disciple mode.
Thank you
For everything
Recently started rereading Homestuck and had memories of spending ages listening to the music that came with it. Couldn't remember the titles of many until this one popped up. Immediate flashbacks, it all came flooding back in. This song is hauntingly beautiful. I missed this so much.
This is the song I kept repeating and repeating when it came out
1:19 and 3:16 are the best moments.
hello from 2022, so many years have passed, I miss my wonderful teenage homestuck hyperfixation 💔 I love this music
This is strangely my favourite track from coloUrs and mayhem Universe A.
its my second fav, just before Iron Knight, its vastly superior, you just cant get those guitar riffs ANYWHERE else
Nothing strange about liking best troll.
"strangely"
Nothing strange about it
maybe it's because i'm simultaneously in my jojo and homestuck phase, but damn "gold pilot" would make a awesome stand name
HOLY CRAP THEY COOKED WITH THIS!!! this is such a good song...
I get chills when I listen to any of the Captor songs...
You have taken the freedom of an innocent troll and turned his blessings to a curse!
it's 2020 and this song still gives me chills
I used to listen to this song as the sun rose while I drove into work. Amazing way to start the day, would recommend 10/10
just got reminded of my favorite homestuck track. what a banger
Ok, so three years after I comment about the song lengths being related to their lifespans, I hit play on this song again. And I'm jamming along, la-de-da, while I'm scrolling through the comments. I see Violet Prince on the side and I'm like, yeah, I'll click on that when this is done. Feels like the song is winding down. Is it over yet? Scroll back up, nope. There's still a minute left. Ugh.
Realize what I've just done. Feel my heart fall out of my chest.
Never leave this song before it's over. Just out of respect, ok?
Honestly, this is my favorite track from these albums
god, this is gorgeous. the homestuck ost is a work of art in and of itself
I love this theme because its sad when you add the context of the comics but when you don't its just kind of just a random banger with 0 sad emotions.
I like how Eridan's still chopped in half in the cover art
I love how the ancestors music makes me feel like a whole story is being told
This is definitely my favorite of the ancestors themes. The way it switches ears is amazing and I love the glitching effects
this makes me imagine an au where the original 12 trolls try to safe psiionic in some kind of mission. they enter the ship, with those pink tendrils going throughout the ship and periodically pulsing with blue and red energy. throughout the journey to the heart of the ship they get glimpses of psiionics life through the energy in the tendrils, seeing how much he struggled and was tortured, all for a chance for him and all his fellow lowbloods to live a life worth living. at the end of the song they just see psiionic in a near catatonic state, the once great hero they had been seeing throughout the flashbacks now just a husk silently begging to be let free. he doesn't even notice as his descendant removes the tendrils, the only thing forcing psiionic to stay alive and suffer. finally, psiionic is allowed to rest, and he dies very quickly after he was removed and fell to the ground. sollux just watches as his ancestor dies with a slight look of relief on his face, and just takes off all the pink things on his, then just closes his eyes and the other 11 watch
everytime i hear this song, i fell a bit sad... and angry too. I WANTED TO SEE THAT FLASH
you ever come across a comment you made 6 years ago and immediately feel pain?
i don't know about you guys but every time i listen to this track i'm reminded of Mituna and his sacrifice #*dem FEELS*
Damn, you've just activated my feels Do8
commencing the opening of the flood FEELS gates...everyone get to high ground unless drowning in tears is your personal Friday night activity...
So am I, ; - ;
The Golden Pilot is one of Mittuna's two musical themes, which makes you think that he... emotionally thinks ?
?? Nigga he's still a person bro him being disabled doesn't change that
10 years later it still hits
goddamn this is one of the most beautiful and unique songs I've ever heard and now I remember why homestuck was what made me want to start making music
This song proves over and over again that one can fall in love with a collection of sounds.
Around the point where the music starts drowning out the glitchy noises is the Condense trying to drown out The Psiioniic's screams of agony.
This is probably one of the best soundtrack in Homestuck.
tbh this is actually super gr8 and gives a good idea of the psiioniic. i mean, there's the techno-y dubsteppy part that's obvious, but in the beginning, the shifting and balance-skewing pulsing reminds me a lot of the actual psionic part.
I know I’m seven years late in commenting, but god I would LOVE to see a dance performed to this. It feels so... modern-ballet.
I am indeed, and thank you so much, Edwannabe! It's been mind-blowing watching the response to this song be so positive. It is very gratifying and to know people are enjoying my work!
One of my favorite songs in the entire discography.

I love Homestuck more than any other non living thing or idea (lol that sounds weird) but actually it's really, really fucking tragic when you think about it. :(
I mean, there's this whole "sadstuck" genre of fan art but really the whole fandom is crushingly depressing. :(

Every time I hear this or moonsetter I cry.Homestuck came along at a dark time in my life and united me and my best friends, who are still with me to this day. I still can’t believe it’s been over 3 years since it ended... thanks for saving me hussie
This has been stuck in my head since it came out. Just an absolute banger all around. I wish i could get a song tattooed on me somehow lol
best song in the album change my mind
GOD this slaps so hard
holy shit ive already been listening to this song for 7 months? i swear i watched that flash for the first time yestreday
Mituna's theme! I love Mituna _sooo_ much!
I literally punched the air in happiness when I realized what song this was.
It's actually the Psiionic's theme, not Mituna's. But he is Mituna's ancestor so I guess you could say that Mituna have something in common with this song ^_^
But I think the Wiki page lists it as one of the themes for Mituna...
//Mari Easter Mituna is Psiionic.............\\
Emmaline Haesel Hmm weird... I don't think we always can believe the wikia :-/ But the title "Gold Pilot" is refering to the Psiioniic because he was forced to serve as a Helmsman. And if you look up the track art you will also find a Picture of the Psiioniic. But i could be wrong, I don't know :-P
Well, either way, like Jade Harley said, Mituna is the Psiioniic.
Humans are like murals, points of fixation, ought to be completed.
The part at the end when the melody muddles and fades always makes me imagine the Psiionic finally overclocking himself and suffering an agonizing death
cease
Still remember the first time I heard this song. Was playing minecraft on a server with a homestuck resource pack and this was on one of the cds and when it came on I was transfixed, listened to the whole thing multiple times on repeat and to this day it still holds up.
i need to comment on this, i doubt anyone will read it
idk why, but im feeling something weird, i was just seeing some of the more emotional flashes in Karkat Goes To A Convention (no spoilers here tho), checking if Cole had updated it, and i remembered a song from Homestuck, and i wanted to find it.
and ended up seeing Gold Pilot again, its been a long while since i listened to it
i read homestuck in 2020, (srry new reader stuff lolol.) and sure sometimes i felt the retroactive FOMO of not having been there when it was being written, but i overcame that.
Homestuck's cool, i like it, thats kinda most of what i have to say rn, this isnt that much about homestuck. as after after 10 seconds into Gold Pilot, staring at the coloUrs and mayhem Universe A cover, i started feeling this weird feeling, its not catharsis, similar but not quite it; its not really sad, its not happy either; the best way i can describe is that its a very "human" feeling.
having trouble identifying it.
i guess just, the relationship between humans and art and fiction is just really strange
Maybe it's a sense of longing for being a part of the fandom back when it was popular. People making HS content in droves, fans anticipating the next update and being optimistic, theories being made on characters and symbolism, etc. Without a doubt, HS is much quieter and less widespread now than it was during its peak, so seeing all of the videos and comments left here years ago feels like you're stumbling upon relics of an older time.
You're a fan of HS, but you don't have much of a emotional connection to these videos and comments because you weren't there when HS was big. If I were to use a metaphor, it's like when you come across an abandoned park in a town you've just moved into. Without a doubt, that park holds good memories from a long time ago, but since you never went there before, your brain is imagining nostalgia without you actually having nostalgia. Hope this helped, I kinda went through the same stuff you're going through.
@@ajgameguy3674
hey
i think its some of that, yeah
reading your reply i was pretty much thinking you didnt even read my comment, but after finishing it and reflecting on that feeling again, it probably has a lot more to do with this "pseudo-nostalgia" than i thought before.
still; something about it is just, cosmical, maybe to do with hs's vast plot and space-time shenanigans in the size of multiverses. like i said, its human, i think i feel something empathetic, im not thinking of just the tragedy of the Psyoniic, its about more than that, like... a bigger picture kinda thing?
yeah, idk, at least idk it fully.
anyways tho, thank you for replying :)
This is a real weird coincidence. 'Gold Pilot' makes me think of Stanford Pines, while 'Gold Mage' makes me think of Stanley Pines. These songs are assigned to the Gemini trolls. Gemini = the twins.
I'm so done.

this sounds amazing with headphones !!
The composer/musician is firstturnfold. Hear his other music and see a picture of him at his channel. He has made several comments, mostly to thank the listeners. He is overwhelmed by the response to this song. He continues to produce other music, mostly commission pieces, but would like to get back to things like this if time would allow. He is a professional digital artist and animator and has been very busy with the company he works for. I know all of this about him because I am his dad.
man the glitch parts are so good
This song is one of the reasons I love being a Gemini.
I listen to this way too much.

if i was born 20 days later (i'm from the 4th of May) then i would be a Gemini too, but i'm a Taurus.
this song is also one of the reasons why i love being a reality warping dog
The theme of the Psiioniic.
All roads lead to Rome, all youtube autoplay paths lead to gold pilot.

The glitches slow down the song… like how they slow down the pacing *And it’s made amazing, maybe more*

Coming back to listen iconic Homestuck songs is so nostalgic 😿
