Closing Hours | Spamta Claus (Deltarune AU) by MysteryMan published on 2022-07-29T22:24:46Z Due to the sheer length (plus wanting to preserve the format,) you can find the accompanying dialogue for this post on Google Docs. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eYF7LWWtMvuCFZenX8c3xfbvYwI9KG3iYdGTiwgpN0Q/edit?usp=sharing ------------ Spamta Claus is a Deltarune AU that pulls inspiration from the infamous "Spamelle" concept, but with a fair few twists in comparison. Something goes wrong when the fountain in the library is forming in Chapter 2, causing Spamton to be forced into Noelle's body. You can read more details on the swaps + general premise over on Google Docs! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nmrK2CWTqOjEVIql6V9H2_5S5hyRrmaHoGOAGgjQMZ8/edit?usp=sharing The brand new Spamelle design + the art in the thumbnail were done by BittyBattyBunny (https://bittybattybunny.tumblr.com / https://twitter.com/bittybattybunny.) She did a really great job bringing my vision for this AU's version of the character to life, and I'm incredibly happy with the final result. ------------ Motifs: -Silent Night -Dialtone -Lost Girl (Modified) ------------ Spamelle technically takes the role of Spamton. (Or does she *keep* it???) After something with the fountain's formation in the library goes very wrong, Spamton is forced into Noelle's body. Now Spamton is the [[BIG SHOT]] making all the [[Deal(s)]], while poor Noelle is stuck as a passenger in her own mind, watching as the world and the events there within change around her. While she's not the dominant force by any means however, Noelle's various terrified/pained thoughts *do* wind up seeping into Spamton's dialogue a fair bit, much to Spamelle's occasional chagrin. ------------ So ye, I've done exactly what I said I would in A Real Girl's description: there is now a (second) Dialtone replacement for Spamelle here on SoundCloud! This was initially going to BE the first one, but there was **no fuckin way** I was gonna post a Spamta Claus track with yet ANOTHER unfitting public Spamelle design, so it was worth holding this back for the awesome thumbnail art + AU-specific Spamelle design! Someone beat me to the punch (https://soundcloud.com/adrjj/jingle) during the thumbnail's creation timeline, and I'm honestly kinda happy about that. It's low-key tiring/frustrating at times being the only one to even *think* of trying to fill certain musical gaps with my limited skill, whether it's UT/DR or AHIT, so I'm glad SOMEONE else had a similar thought for once! Anyhow, back on topic. I decided to take a cue from a track that already inspired me before, and base this Dialtone on a holiday carol. And considering how well the time signature lined up already, Silent Night was just an obvious perfect fit for me. On top of that tho, I also included a tiny bit of the original Dialtone melody at the very end of the piano's melody, and modified Lost Girl into the french horn part in the second half. Speaking of which, yeah! I actually decided to go for a more orchestral style in the second half (all while keeping the same phone ringing and dinky toy-like piano underpinning it all.) I figured it would help both bring a somewhat unique flair to this, as well as (hopefully) aid the intended underlying melancholy in this arrangement. All in all, p damn happy with how this turned out, and I hope you guys enjoy! ------------ Based on Motifs by Franz Xaver Gruber and Toby Fox Arranged by MysteryMan Genre Dialtone Comment by Legoguy75 LOVE the use of silent night! 2024-03-12T15:42:11Z Comment by colors silent night 2023-04-06T18:08:29Z Comment by SANTIMS V2 i love the usage of silent night!!! 2022-12-24T17:53:46Z Comment by KennethV2000 I need to make a original au quickly 2022-08-26T20:19:45Z Comment by Glass of Water Neat idea 2022-08-01T22:49:12Z
