* MUSTACHE GIRL EX ATK 180 DEF 280
* Guess she did have a breaking point, after all.
* ...There must be a way to get through to her.
Time’s End is an AHIT/Undertale crossover AU of sorts, taking place in the aftermath of a timeline where you lose the final boss fight against Mustache Girl. You can find the write-up here! In addition, you can find the write-ups for the Neutral Endings and TimeWarp Route Requirements on Google Drive!
The logo for Time's End was designed by @bittybattybunny. She's an incredible artist, be sure to check out their work here on Tumblr and over on Twitter!! Like holy FUCK, I can not stress enough how awesome they are to work with. They're amazing!!
Motifs:
Mustache Girl EX
Main Theme/Title Screen
Reflections Past
Judge, Jury and Executioner
You can also listen to this track in high quality on the AU’s SoundCloud here!
The rest of the description is underneath the Read More.
Mustache Girl takes on a hybrid Asgore and Asriel role. Already feeling trapped and conflicted, her emotions are finally pushed over the edge when an incredibly large group of people -- though it feels more like the entire world with how suffocating the crowd is -- barge into her throne room and hurl insults her way, telling her to "get lost!" among other things …and (almost) all in the name of Bow Kid, mirroring what happened years ago to a disturbing degree. Finally overwhelmed by all her painful thoughts and emotions bubbling back to the surface, she snaps and violently shatters a Time Piece in a fit of rage. And thus history is made to repeat itself once more. But this time, something's different.
BABY'S FIRST HOPES AND DREAMS REPLACEMENT FOR THE WIN :D
Also Happy belated New Year to all my peeps here on Tumblr lmao
But ye, this is actually happening! Aside from using similar instruments (and a somewhat loose idea for the very beginning of my track,) this is very deliberately unfaithful to the typical H&D structure. Knew right away that I wanted to use Mustache Girl EX as the base for this track, and that sticking too rigidly to the structure of any other H&D would do a disservice to the feel I wanted to go for: that same kick-you-in-the-dick level of power from Mu EX, but with a LOT more of a melancholy vibe underlying all that fury. Plus, bit of a fun fact: adjustments have been made since obviously, but the first "complete" mixing draft of this track was finished on New Year's Eve 2023! (This kind of constant revising is why the His Theme track is still not done on my part btw lmaooooo.)
Also… I'll fully admit something here. For the first time on a track I've done, the drumbeat's backbone is comprised of loops I got when I bought Mixcraft 10 (especially with some of the things they were offering during the first week of its launch,) and the only supplemental VST I used was Abbey Road 80's Drummer for the left panned hi-hats. I know that EDM-type stuff similar to the actual Mu EX track is completely out of my wheelhouse, and I didn't want to royally screw up the drum pattern with this different metal-ish take on it, seeing as those are something I have a TON of trouble with. All things considered, drumline came out ok!
And ye on the whole, I'm incredibly happy with this track, and it's easily the most ambitious arrangement I've done to date (and the most difficult too in some aspects.) Hope you all enjoy! :)
Your Contract Has Expired, but it's sky instrumental
Art and music could have come out better, but not fate, and even more so I'm very sick, so I can't squeeze something out of myself better. And I recently noticed some missing part at the beginning of the music, but it's too late.
Okay here separate art with him
the next post will no longer be dedicated to music, I hope.
I'll be perfectly honest... I'm fine with posting major stuff as MP3s here still, but for comparatively "smaller" tracks like this, I'm losing interest in compressing and porting them. I don't want there to be outright no documentation for em on my Tumblr tho, so I'm gonna be making use of Tumblr's audio embed feature a decent bit from now on. Sorry in advance. XP
These two tracks are in relation to Cooking Cat and Goofy Mafia, the joint Toriel replacements. By the point that these tracks play, both have become very split over the issue of how to deal with Bow Kid. Their friendship sits at a tipping point, but though things are tense, Cooking Cat is still more than happy to let Bow rest at their house as long as she needs. For the funni flavor text stuff (and any more in depth notes,) you can read the descriptions on the SoundCloud posts proper. For timeline's sake, the tracks have been put underneath the cut.
the thing about getting into a new musical is that i'm sure to the people around me, the fact that i've brought it up already a few times this week is absolutely overkill
but these songs are stuck in my head pretty much whenever i'm awake, so from my point of view, the fact that i am not constantly inflicting a one-woman rendition of the catchier numbers on everyone in my vicinity really does come down to near-legendary self-control and i would like a medal for my ironclad restraint, please—
