I recently started playing piano a lot more often. I'm mostly playing Homestuck songs. I know AN arrangement of Penumbra Phantasm and also The Carnival, from page "5x showdown combo". I'm also learning Rex Doudecum Angelus. Penumbra and Rex are really long. I'm also thinking of posting these on YouTube, and have been TRYING to get a good full take of Penumbra. WHY ARE ALL THE EASY PARTS IN THE LATTER HALF OF THE SONG?


Anyway, I want to know if anyone else here has been playing Homestuck songs on piano, and if so, which ones?

I understand All of the time travel in Homestuck. All of it.

i've played piano but I was never any good at it, if you get a hang of any of them (especially Rex Doudecum Angelus) you should totally post it somewhere!

I play the piano, but I haven't found any piano arrangements yet, and I'm a little intimidated by the idea of trying to create some myself!

I usually find mine on MuseScore. It has a lot of videogame and other stuff sheet music.

I'll have to check that out, then! I've got a neglected copy of Musescore 4 on my laptop so I should be able to use the files.

I have to agree with a lot of the other people on this thread. MuseScore is helpful, it has a lot of tracks or piano versions of tracks for Homestuck songs. It's really helpful as someone who doesn't play the piano except for playing HS music.

Nicely done! I swear, playing the piano is fun, but recording on the piano is absolute agony.

I want to edit the video a bit - add some text, crop out my face - but idk what software to use. I would just installed Capcut, but I noticed that it has a 3.4 star review, and is obviously riddled "AI enhancement features". Again, these are pretty simple edits, so maybe I can do it without even using a different software, idk.

I don't really play piano, but I'm working on a few transcriptions of some of the soundtracks, I might post those here if I'm ever motivated enough to actually finish any.

When the beat drops I'm going to fucking kill myself
