March of the Batterwitch

This is one of my submissions to the Homestuck album contest.

As a theme for Betty Crocker, the piano intro is meant to evoke an image of the batterwitch scheming in her kitchen. As the song evolves, I tried to conjure the image of her walking outside to look upon her army of drones, marching into battle.

I ran out of time, but I was planning to add an ambient wash of kitchen sounds that I recorded to complement the piano solo. I’ve been informed that I’ll be allowed to make such changes before the final album version if this song is accepted.
