The Curbstomp Song makes it to TVtropes.
When I went to investigate this little detail, I was even more surprised to discover that it wasn't merely referenced, it was top of the page as a (as I look, THE) Defining Quote of 'Curb Stomp Battle'.
How sweet is that?
Now, I admit I'm not the most impressive of singers. But I managed to pull this off just having fun with the track. And it's not just singing either, it's voice acting. I did all the voices from my normal to some more outlandish sounding, but it's all me. The hardest part was the chorus. I had to make sure the house was clear, borderline screamo'd that, and burned my vocal cords out for three days. Which is, probably the reason I haven't attempted a new recording.
Anyway:
How about a challenge then? Can you sing?
If you can sing, and you'd like to make an attempt at the Curbstomp Song, contact me. I have the instrument only version available. I don't need to give contact instructions. If you can't find a way to contact me among this account, or any of the ones I've linked to on the 'Directions to Nowhere', you have problems that make Ryoga Hibiki's sense of direction look godlike.

Sleeping with the Girls: Vol II Chapter 3

Mr. Clandestine Mk II
A little piece of music I recently reuploaded to youtube. This is part of my work for project 'Magical Girl'.
Mr. Clandestine is a track to define extremely dangerous sneaking around things much bigger and stronger than you are
The updated version contains less repetative moments, with a bit more complexity to many of the layers in the music. You will feel the sneaking, the great sneaking, the BADASS sneaking... your heart will pound when you're almost caught, you'll sneak some more, it will be EPIC.
Then suddenly! You've been spotted! Now it's all or nothing!
The track is also posted over on youtube. You can follow the signpost off on the side, or you can click HERE.

Sleeping with the Girls Vol II: Chaos Theory, chapter 2
For those wandering in here wondering what this is all about. Sleeping with the Girls is an experimental piece of fiction I began in February. The premise is essentially what happens if you do a self-insert that's as close to how you really are in life as possible (flaws and all), with the catch that all those twisted self-gratifying fantasies most dime a dozen kid writers create won't even come close to playing out nice and smooth.
Combine this with the insert's already in-depth knowledge of the things they're being inserted into, and you have a recipe for something that takes one look at the fourth wall, and sneers at it.
The experiment has been a popular read, garning at this point, more than three hundred hits a day on average, with peaks as high as 1.5 THOUSAND in the 24 hours after each chapter release.
As such, I've done my best to continue the story in a timely manner.
Currently, Volume One, 'Fictional Reality', consists of the first twenty one chapters. This set is complete.
Volume Two is under way, and the latest chapter, titled: Two Point One, is now up.
It can be read by following the signpost to my fanfiction.net account to the right.
Or you can go directly to it here.
It's a self-insert. But it is a self insert done with the consequences of action in mind. Don't be lead to believe what you think the title means right off the bat. The title is both a misnomer, and dead accurate.
