Throughout the major ups & downs of the Arrowverse, there is one aspect that has yet to be criticized as deeply as the others, The Music.
Mostly composed by the great Blake Neely (except for the Constantine theme, that was Bear MCreary), the many Themes of the Arrowverse have garnered great approval, wether it's iconic ones such as The Flash & Arrow's main themes, unforgettable ones like Damian Dharks Theme, Reverse Flash, Savitar, Reign Etc. and ones that cant seem to decide on a theme like Legends of Tomorrow, the music of the Arrowverse has been one of the less egregious things to come from it.
with many people quickly becoming fans of the Arrowverses Music, quite a few of them would arise to do as many would in the early 2010s- REMIX THE SHRAP OUT OF THEM!
notable persons of interest include
and the subject of todays post- Slade Foley
Who was actually one of the more prevalent Music Remixers out there(He's the guy who made the Godspeed theme used by LottaExcite). with a seemingly very exciting comeback (after a year long break) planned for the near future, however much like Michael Jacksons "This is It" Tour, it apparently wasn't meant to be....
Late June 2022, Slade had posted a new Album onto his Soundcloud entitled "In a Flash" possibly as a sequel to his 2019 Arrow Tribute Album "Sacrifice". With it, he'd posted a community post on his Youtube Channel letting his YT viewers know of it's...well, existence. all seemed well & good, with Slade posting a new community post seemingly every week. which was fine, just wanted to connect with some fans, give people a sneak peek of what was coming down the pipelines in the future during his major comeback. however! merely 3 days after his "In a Flash" album was posted, his channel disappeared. As in, was deleted off YouTube completely! with not even the Wayback Machine showing any archives of it's existence!
Within the first few hours of it's disappearance the 404 page showed the standard "Account terminated due to community guidelines strikes" which seemed...odd, to say the least.
There didn't appear to be any violations present leading up to his deletion, there wasn't any Spam Rules broken, any Child Safety Rules broken, any Hate Speech broken, and certainly not any Inactivity rules broken.
so...what gives? did Slade just pull an Astro Soup & randomly decide to delete his channel? did he delete it on accident? did he ACTUALLY break some of the sacred YouTube Rules & end up suffering the wrath of Wojcicki?
With any luck those questions will be answered sooner rather than later.
what i'm focused on here, is the question: what to do if he never responds or finds out?
cause like i'd said, leading up to his deletion disappearance he was very active in the community posts. so it feels very strange that in the past month he hasn't seemed to notice; or if he has, he hasn't said anything about it. Not on his Twitter, Soundcloud or Facebook.
but aside from that, my main worry here isn't if he will come back or not, my main worry is the idea that there is now 3-4 years worth of Lost Media on our hands! Going back to the start of this post, the arrowverse has seem pretty amazingtheme songs & his remixes of which were ALSO very amazing! but as of right now, it's all gone!
...or atleast, it would be, if I myself didn't have his entire Year One Album (2016-2017) backed up on my PC. Aswell as 2 songs from his Year Two Album, one of which being an Original track that he'd created entirely himself.
So now i turn the conversation over to YOU, does anyone else here know of Slade Foley? know what really happened to him? were able to get in contact with him? or better yet! have any records of his music from years 2-4.
Cause like stated above, we don't know if , or when he'll be back.
Just like Matt Lestcher.
