Today's artwork directly references the titular style of "New Super Mario Bros." for the Nintendo DS, graphically designed by me; the background features sprites from said game which were ripped by Jouw. Check out the full sheet here: https://www.spriters-resource.com/fullview/8415/

Surprise, listeners! It's Brandon; do you recognize me?! After a three month wait, I've returned just a LITTLE bit earlier than Thursday to deliver something very exciting. If you're interested in where I've been or how I'm feeling, I'll be posting an audio update this Thursday to tell you what's happened in my life. Until then, let's focus on the exciting matter at hand...

Five long years ago, the beloved project known as UNDERTOAD welcomed a game-changing addition to its vast soundtrack; this addition was known as "REVOLUTION". With UNDERTOAD being a harmony of Nintendo's signature IP and UNDERTALE's riveting concepts, "REVOLUTION" aimed to capture the atmosphere of an intense battle against one of our most beloved and historic friends, Mario, composed by industry giants LucasPucas and Galactigal. As the years would pass by, the song would boast critical acclaim among fans, and while spawning its fair share of fan works and dedications, it would go through many different official renditions; I would get the chance to work on quite a few of these renditions myself, all the while being alongside some seriously professional partners. After much doting on the song and what it meant to the story, the concept became tiresome to many longtime fans as well as the creatively gifted development team, and it would be touched less and less until the UNDERTOAD project went on an indefinite hiatus. It was but a whispered memory...

Rekindle that whisper into a screaming roar of victory with "The Starman's Riot", a nearly four minute dusting off of the beloved track, "REVOLUTION". Taking deep root in your heart with a soul shaking unison of blasting drums, widened synths, fierce guitars, easing keys, and familiar Nintendo sounds, "The Starman's Riot" aims to signify the end of a wonderful world with a fiery explosion. Let your spirit free with the simplest of bongos and hats pushing along an intensely detailed composition, completely dedicated to the emotions of Mario's meaningful adventures. From the fast-paced energies of a fight to the death in Super Mario World to the softly spoken farewells of Super Mario 64's "Staff Roll", let your heart sing with the passions that only Nintendo's Koji Kondo can bring you. Indulge yourself in the creative liberties that I've taken to ensure my own spirit can be heard through such a strong emotional cry, and perhaps resonate with me in my attempt to communicate the true weight of such a tale, and its tried and true end. 

Riot to the end, for the end...riot for a revolution.

Interesting Facts:
- I initially began reinventing "REVOLUTION" around the time that "Cognitive Assumptions" was posted, but felt that the project had too much high end and not enough sound width.
- I dedicated the next few months to rigorous experimentation on spreading the mono sounds of the SNES equally across the space. It was a success!
- I was reminded of my time working with four other members on a rendition of "REVOLUTION" during this, and I felt happiness in the presence of this memory.
- 1:32 onwards may be my favorite part of the song, but it's truthfully hard to tell. It fills me with much excitement to listen to the entire thing.
- Did you miss me?! I missed you. Maybe I'll see you this Thursday so we can talk...?

Bye!
