So, there is a really common misconception that because Homestuck is so big and popular, that everyone who worked on it is super famous and rich. The opposite is true. Most of the people who worked on this great thing you love are regular folks trying to get by paycheck to paycheck, and some of them are struggling even there. I know for a fact that I have thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands more followers than a large amount of the music team. I just yell about the thing they made, and they get none of the attention!
When it comes to Homestuck music, here is how it works. A bunch of musicians make a bunch of music, then it gets selected for albums. There can only be so many songs on an album, so a lot of the music that was made for Homestuck was never officially released. Hundreds, if not thousands of songs.
One such prolific, hard working Homestuck musician (who composed the top played songs across all of my devices ((Softly))) Robert J! Lake is releasing to the world just that - hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of Homestuck songs that nobody has ever heard before.
But since it is being released through his personal Bandcamp, nobody knows it exists.
Aside from Stuckhome Syndrome, next time you listen to Homestuck music, take note of the songs you like. Look them up! Find out who made it, and follow their work. Homestuck was a group effort, and everyone who helped make it deserves to be recognized.
