aurora - a minecraft inspired piece 

Glad that you continued to create this "cubic" masterpieces. Thank you for your work. : ]

"Aurora? At this time of day, in this part of the world, entirely made in YOUR recording studio?" "Yes." "May I hear it?" (pre-release) "...No."

oh wait this guy has a discord i did not know. But im not gonna delete this comment (peak humor)

i'm late af to this but i do want to turn this into a mod / data pack that people can use, idk who to talk to get that to happen though lmao

@@CDMusicYT theexiledfellow is the only guy i know that made a minecraft music mod

when i find someone who can do it / find out how you can add songs to the music cycle ingmae

@@CDMusicYT I might be able to, I've done a couple resource packs with music. If you wanna know how it works, the game has a bunch of different music events that trigger depending on where you are, and each one has its own list of tracks it can play. Some are biome/dimension specific, some are general (like game, which is used in most overworld biomes that don't have their own event), and some are special (like dragon and credits, which have dedicated tracks). The 24 events (as of 1.19) are: creative, credits, dragon, end, game (used for most normal gameplay), menu, basalt_deltas, crimson_forest, nether_wastes, soul_sand_valley, warped_forest, deep_dark, dripstone_caves, frozen_peaks, grove, jagged_peaks, jungle_and_forest, lush_caves, meadow, old_growth_taiga, snowy_slopes, stony_peaks, swamp, and under_water. And then there's all the music discs. You can edit each event's track list with a json file, and/or replace the existing music the typical resource pack way. Editing the lists with a json would let you put specific tracks for each event. For example, you could set Aurora, Cooldown, and the base game's Wet Hands as the tracks that play for snowy_slopes. Or add Beyond alongside the base game's The End (which I tested and got to work). I could probably do it/help with it if someone hasn't already, but you or someone more musically inclined than me would have to determine what songs would go well with what event. And whether you'd want to fully replace the music in game, or just add to it. Anyways, love your music man! Aurora's one of my favorites from Cubic Vol 1 :)

making music for something as popular and highly regarded as calamity is far more challenging than anyone would usually think it would be, especially when you're essentially living in the shadow of a giant constantly. when you also have thousands of eyes silently watching you can't help but have at least some pressure on yourself when making something like the calamity ost, its a genuinely stressful process when you have people expecting only the best from you - couple that with inner dev drama that just continued to escalate until it boiled over last december didn't help me either. i didn't want to disappoint the community, but also wanted to preserve my already deteriorating mental health - which is because of reasons i'd rather not discuss publicly due to privacy reasons. put all that together and you have a recipe for disaster. my reasoning for disliking the modding community extends far further back as well, the ancients awakened mod turmoil back in 2020 already had a negative impact on my stance regarding terraria modding as a whole, and for more dev drama to happen in calamity when i thought i'd found somewhere better only made me feel worse about it all; any sane person would want to get out of there if it got too bad, and that's exactly what happened. i would discuss it more openly in videos and such, but there's the fact i hate reading scripts (and am just bad at it), can't keep the subject coherent for more than 30 seconds and me being paranoid about the chance that i'll come across as some sort of crybaby. idk what else to say really, sorry for being so vague about things.
