Seeking Contributors For Our Homestuck Fan Music Project!
Hey, everybody! Welcome to TheVoiceActingBrigadeβs very first musical themed project for our βLetβs Dub of Homestuck.β Though the official comic has ended, we still intend to keep the love of the comic alive and well amongst the fans. Β After some heavy deliberation and consideration, we have decided to make our own character and land based tracks for those characters that we felt were left to the wayside in other projects.
Our main focus will be on the Beforan trolls, their ancestors, and their lives both on Beforus and in the game. This project will be separated into three chapters/disks:
βββ
β’ Disc 1: Will mainly be music pertaining to the Beforan trollβs Ancestors and also to the lands that the Beforan trolls were respectively in.
β’ Disc 2: Will be fanon themes for each of the 12 Beforan trolls. We feel it would be nice if each troll got at least 2 theme tracks.
β’ Disc 3: Will be any extra themes and or any long pieces of music that were not able to fit eloquently into the other two disks.
βββ
While working on this project it will henceforth be known as the Alternia B.C. (Before Us) project.
βββ
As this project is still in its early stages, we donβt have very much information to release right now. However, more information will come once we have more contributors signed on!
We are looking for applicants from the public, so if you want to take part in making Alternia B.C. (Before Us) a reality, please get in touch! You can do so via this blog: @thevoiceactingbrigade
Sample works may be necessary, as weβll need to evaluate applicants through their previous examples. Slots are of course subject to availability, but if you get in quick itβs not unlikely that youβll get a place. So please do get in touch quickly!
More details about the nature of the project will initially be revealed to contributors as they get in touch with us, and then weβll make a more public notice later once the ball is rolling!
We hope to hear from many willing applicants who wish to fill that musical fanon void in the Homestuck community.

Alternia B.C. (Before Us): Information and Applications
Alternia B.C. (Before Us) is the current musical project for TheVoiceActingBrigadeβs βLetβs Dub Homestuckβ project. Overseen by the Brigadeβs core team of mods, we aim to recruit fan artists and musicians from across the Homestuck fandom to contribute their work through an open application process!
How To Apply To The Alternia B.C. (Before Us) Project
Applications both for musicians and visual artists are currently open for the Alternia B.C. (Before Us) project. Anyone can apply for a place on the project, regardless of prior experience! However, unlike with other projects, places are limited, and consequently, we can only accept a small number of applicants, and the sample work quality benchmark will likely be higher to reflect this!
Given this, please do include your very best prior work in your application to give yourself the best chance of being allocated a place on the project. Also, please note that we are looking for musicians and artists to fulfill more specific roles on this project as opposed to on other works, so please donβt be disheartened if you apply with work of a high quality and it is rejected! We will often be looking for certain stylistic qualities to an applicantβs work that will fit with a given project role.
βββ
Both musicians and artists can apply to Alternia B.C. (Before Us) by following the following steps:
1. Navigate to our submissions page, and write out a post including the following information:
β’ The name/username you wish to be addressed as β’ Your Tumblr URL β’ Contribution medium (e.g. musician, visual artist, both, other) β’ Contact email address and/or links to the best way to reach out to you
2. In your submission, link to an example, or examples, of any previous work in your medium.
If you are a visual artist, for instance, you should include some of your previous artwork. If you are a musician, some of your music. Please ensure that you provide work that is representative of the quality of work you would be able to produce for Alternia B.C. (Before Us). And please keep in mind that the better quality your submitted example is, the higher chance there is of you being accepted onto the project!
3. Hit send!
We will respond to you once we have reviewed your information and tell you whether your application has been accepted or not, and if so, weβll then give you additional information pertaining to the project and your contribution.
Important Note:
TheVoiceActingBrigadeβs Alternia B.C. (Before Us) project will, as a rule, not be accepting previously used work to be a part of the project. All content on Alternia B.C. (Before Us) will be unique for the project, specifically assigned to our contributors after they have been accepted through the application process.
This means that if you have already used a piece of music or artwork prior Alternia B.C. (Before Us), we will not be interested in including it on the album release. You can use such work as your application example work, but keep in mind that work submitted as part of your application will not appear on Alternia B.C. (Before Us), and is for evaluation purposes only!
Thank you for reading, and we hope to see/hear your work on the project!
