My name is Tyler Dever. I'm a college kid who makes official music for MS Paint Adventures. You can see my contributions and projects here, on my music blog. Recently I began composing for the brilliant comic Olympus Overdrive.
This is my general blog for shenanigans and reblogs. I will reblog everything from my music blog though.

Music

My first released work was Candles and Clockwork from Homestuck Volume 5. After that came two songs on the unofficial charity album Homestuck for the Holidays. A remix of Candles and Clockwork that became a bonus track, the other being Candlelight, a remix by RJ Lake.

I wrote a piece for the Alterniabound album, L’etat de l’ambivalence, which was cut. I released it on the fan album a few months later.

Later in the summer came my biggest project. My solo album, Sburb, came out in July at the same time as The Wanderers, which I had one track on: Requiem for an Exile. Thanks to Jeremy “Solatrus” Iamurri for helping so much with the Wanderers track. Many thanks go out to a large amount of people for helping with Sburb. Primarily, Erik Scheele saved me so much by performing each track in amazing quality for the album.

Also, I would like to thank Vivian Ng for doing the awesome artwork for my album.

More recently, Homestuck Volume 8 was released with another track made by me (Gust of Heir), with much help from Michael Guy Bowman and Clark Powell. Around the same time came the unofficial album Jailbreak, where I had the song Be the Other Guy with help from Perry Sullivan.

In 2012, I opened the year with one small contribution to Michael Guy Bowman’s solo effort Ithaca. Most of the year was spent with personal life auditions for a school of music and writing to get into the composition program here. Still a work in progress!

In June, the Homestuck music team released the next volume album: Volume 9. On the album I contributed two more songs. Red Miles, a theme for the deudley super attack in the comic, and yet another reworking of Candles and Clockwork. This time, the wonderful expertise of Albatross Soup aided me in turning it into possibly my most favorite version.
