Days to Christmas Countdown: 12

Howdy, everyone! This is the first song to kick off the "Undertale AU Community 12 Days to Christmas", a period from Dec. 13 (today/tonight) to Dec. 24 where I post UT/DR-related songs every 1-3 days prior to Christmas. On Dec. 24-25 I will post a special song that I've been planning for months.

For the first song I wanted to start off with something simple and appropriate for the holiday season. Initially I was going to do a slightly more remix-y version of "Snowy" with additional elements sprinkled in, but due to time constraints, I made a simple GB recreation of the original song instead. Someday I may post the other version in its remixed glory. Enjoy!

HEEEEEEEERE's the full (first) 100 follower special as promised, plus the 2nd "12 Days to Christmas" song! Sorry it took so long for this song to come out, but I was incredibly busy with finals and trying to make this song as good as I possibly could.

The main cover starts at 1:02, before I finalized everything I decided to make an accompanying Taletwist "BtERtD", hence "Defiance of Fate". I hope you enjoy this track!

i literally had no idea what to do today without rushing out a big song so here's another megalo cover. there's a bit of modification, especially in the brass and slow od sections, and there's a little bit of extra melodies added here and there.

Exactly 128 years ago, on Friday, December 18th, history was made when Tchaikovsky's popular holiday ballet "The Nutcracker" premiered at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia. Today it is a popular tradition to celebrate this wonderful children's story with concerts and dance performances to Tchaikovsky's timeless score, and it has shaped many memories for holiday-goers and the dancers who partake in the ballet.

While the ballet was initially unsuccessful upon its premiere, over time, the story and especially the music has become very popular. One of the most famous compositions that Tchaikovsky wrote for the ballet is the "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy," which is notable for its use of the heavenly celesta.

When I started making music on Soundcloud, one of the first tracks I uploaded was a mashup of "Waterfall" from Undertale and "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy." Since then my musical style and polish have evolved and this holiday season is an appropriate time for me to share an update to this fitting track.

Happy 128th Anniversary of "The Nutcracker", and (early) Happy Holidays!

Bit of an early post, but here's a "Track 71" for Terraformed and/or Greatershift. I've actually promised this as another 100 followers special in the past and so far it's currently a WIP, but I say I did a pretty good job on this one all things considered. The only thing I'm uncertain about is which motifs to use for the additional piano melodies (the ones at 1:53-2:11/2:31-2:49, 3:46-4:04 and 4:05-4:23/4:24-4:42/5:20-5:38/5:39-5:57), although I may use a modified 2nd part of "Run!" for the bit at 4:43-5:01/5:02-5:20.

Leitmotif{s}:
- Guitar: 3rd part of "Alphys"
- OUaT Part A: But the Earth Refused to Die (modified and extended)
- BG Strings: Spear of Justice/Undyne
- OUaT Part B: Ruins/2nd part of "Spear of Justice" (modified)

Also here's an unrelated RR inquiry poll: https://strawpoll.com/4kku16cap (Which RR Frisk design by Azzy should be canon in your opinion? I'm not quite sure because both are really great.)

Note (12/24): Posting this early due to concerns of unsafe weather and potential loss of electrical power on the East Coast. Also consider this the finale of the UTAU 12 Days to Christmas series.

* You feel a strange sensation come over you.
* Things are changing, faster and faster.
* A place deep in your heart and memory...
* Starts to feel unfamiliar, unrecognizable.
* This feels like a nightmare.
* You feel something... DISENCHANTING.

I think this is the first ever Megalo to exist that's based off of "The Nutcracker", or a ballet in general. Hope you enjoy, and Happy Holidays!

Here's a guide for the leitmotifs:
- Bells (Intro/Brass): Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy
- Main Lead (Piano and E. Guitar): Miniature Overture
- Background Bells: Departure of the Guests ~ Night (1st part)
- Square: Final Waltz, syncopated to 4/4
- Brass: More parts of Final Waltz, syncopated to 4/4
- Slow OD: Departure of the Guests ~ Night (Transformation part/growth of the Christmas tree)
- Strings (End Solo): Decoration of the Christmas Tree + Waltz of the Flowers (latter syncopated to 4/4)

Howdy! I'm HyperFlowey. I'm an UT/DR fan who has neat AU ideas under his belt; although I do have other, non-Toby Fox stuff to present as well.

Q&A:

Q: What AU projects do you own?

A: My AUs are as follows:
- "Leaptale: Dream Epic" (Leap!/Ballerina x Undertale AU with some original gameplay ideas) (currently on hiatus)
- "Reality's Reflection" (my take of Mirrored Inversion that attempts to be more like TS!Underswap in terms of expanding on characters' roles and how their actions shape the world around them) (in progress)
Check it out here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1k11bsNynS98FuGEzP1m3WNCdV4eFluR7DKnookRlFJY/edit?usp=sharing

Q: Do you take song requests?

A: It's perfectly fine to request songs, and I'm happy to do them as long as I have the time and effort to spare.

Q: Will there be any special music events?

A: Expect the usual [insert 100+] follower specials and maybe birthday specials, but there may also be an Ebott Roulette once in a while. It helps to have a variety of tracks so I don't get tired out, y'know?

Q: Are we allowed to re-upload and/or extend any tracks?

A: I'm on the fence about unpermitted re-uploads or extensions, though when I have the resources on YouTube I may extend my own tracks someday. If you're very honest about the re-uploads and ask through DMs, then I may allow you to download it, but otherwise please try to hold off on it. Cool? Cool.

Q: What about comments related to AU projects? More specifically, can we post joke comments on your tracks?

A: If the track in question's nothing serious, then I don't mind joke comments, but please make sure to respect the official AU material, whether it would be mine or someone else's. I kindly ask that we don't put personality swap comments in tracks for my AUs because it would undermine the point of the characters and story of the AU in question.

Q: What's your music making software?

A: My current software for making tracks is Garageband 6.0.5, though I may get a new software someday to allow for a more conventional style.

I hope you enjoy my tracks, and stay tuned for more!
