HS Music Discussion 3: Universe B is where all the Mayhem is at!

[Nich]

Gah, that Mutiny vid turns into piercing static at about 20 seconds in.

[mysteriousOutsider]

I haven't listened to any of his music and I kind of... don't... want to.

Ouch, I'm just going to snip those two links

The ghost of Bolin haunts us to this day!

Which is impressive for a guy who's almost certainly still alive.

[MyUsernamesMud]

We need a curator for [dropbox]Bolin[/URL] preservation

[Niklink]

Mud, that would be me. Still rockin out to Stress (Speed Mix) to this very day.

[Crispiness]

(actually, the word "entitled" has only been said four times in the thread, twice in completely unrelated things, and twice by you )

Counting shows you care.

[Flotilla]

I do miss Bolin's contributions to Homestuck, the Midnight Crew flash just isn't the same without a moon bopping to the beat

[kaoticAntagonist]

Today I realised that most current readers of Homestuck have not even heard of Bill Bolin. It made me sad.

[Nightlife]
[Mutiny]

Was going to link Guardian v2 as well, but couldn't find it anywhere.

you can find the original bolin flashes in the depths of skaianet.

just so you know.

[curiousTerminal]

I take it since the modsnip was because of static, it's okay to link this page?
http://ib.skaia.net/post/list/old_version/1
That's the page with the Bolin music.

[Squid Pilgrim]

I feel like it shouldn't be allowed to put Bolin in a good light without also including the fact that he's a fucking asshole.

It's cool to like his music, but that's also important. It's like Billy Corgin.

[Crispiness]

I like his tunes but I like the tracks that replaced them more.

Will that work?

[MyUsernamesMud]

As curator, I took thorough record of the events as they transpired.
Just affix this to any old Bolin flashes or songs.

[Niklink]

So I have to ask.

Why did the dude make such a completely redundant number of Beatdown remixes??? I mean seriously? Did he have a hard-on for good ol' Blakeslee?

This is beautiful. Is there some actual public record of those events? I've always been curious.

[nostalgebraist]

Wow, I like most of Bolin's songs more than the ones that replaced them. It's a shame they were removed (though I take it they were removed for good reason).

[MyUsernamesMud]

Is this like one of those zen questions?

It's fucking beatdown

[Ktalaki]

A little bit of googling led me to [tumblr]this[/url] supposed log of the events. I haven't fully read it yet, so I cannot vouch for its authenticity, but I'm just gonna go ahead and guess that it's probably accurate.

(And if this kind of link isn't supposed to be posted, a mod can go ahead and remove it from my post.)

[Xzaz]

yeah, i'm pretty sure it's accurate.

[Ace of Dark-Hearts]

Oh my goodness. I do declare that this man is rather dickish. Pity, his music was nice.

fucking hell that's a lot of words

The professionalism bit is hilarious

[Soleron]

He had one tiny point in that Andrew doesn't really collaborate with the music team. Based on the music team streams, most of them have barely spoken to him, and he doesn't give them any comic info that isn't public.

The current music team is evidently fine with that, but I guess Bill thought it would be otherwise.

[nostalgebraist]

God I can't stop listening to this Bolin song from Jade: Retrieve Package. SO GOOD.

I'm not sure what to say about the post that was linked. I could imagine his complaints being legitimate (if intemperately stated), and I don't enough information to really judge them one way or the other. But then again, if it was really that bad, why was he the only Music Team member (out of many) bothered by it? Sounds more like a mismatch between creative styles than any objective "unprofessionalism" on Andrew's part.

[Flotilla]

Bolin had legitimate complaints that could have been given to Andrew in a more professional manner, he decided not to do so and rather have a piss party on the forums about it

In other news it gives me the giggles reading that transcript while listening to Mutiny

[Niklink]

I'm sure that the music team is bored to hell and back from us mentioning Bolin so much but it's so funny in it's own way.

And Mud come on surely there has to be a limit on the number of Beatdown remixes one man can make right?
