"My ears are bleeding in the best way."

—justice9000^note, on "Cont� Hit & Run"

Tropes that apply to Futret:

Author Avatar: That brown/orange creature seen above is his official fursona.
Camp Gay: The themes of Gay Deer World Takeover.
Cloudcuckoolander
Futstep
Gag Dub: ''JACKLE APP SHITS AN EGG AT BRONYCON AND ITS PRETTY FUCKIN LAME!!!!!!!!!!'' does this to Journey's "Don't Stop Believin.'"
Gayngst/ Gay Aesop: "(More than) Deer to me"
Genre Shift/ Surprisingly Gentle Song: To the usual electronic and synth, "(More than) Deer to me" was based on vocals and piano.
"I Want" Song: "Stag Night"
"I WANNA TAKE YOU TO A GAY BAH!
I WANNA TAKE YOU TO A GAY BAH!
I WANNA TAKE YOU TO A GAY BAH, GAY BAH, GAY BAH!"
Long Title: AUGH SO MANY
Lyrical Dissonance: "Nerves". The verses are both fast-paced and high-pitched; without paying attention, the lyrics and tune seem fairly happy. But, upon comprehension: The listener realizes that the song is about serial killers.
Mad Doctor: The basis of "Upward Infection", though the man confesses he doesn't actually have a diploma.
Mischiefcore
Name's the Same/ Mistaken Identity: There was a confusion about him and some guy claiming to be "Futret" on ChristianFur.
I DONT OWN A CHRISTIANFUR ACCOUNT, THAT PERSON ISNT ME, SORRY TO DISAPPOINT
Non Appearing Title: "Upward Infection"
Recurring Element: His visual art is almost always stylized with the distinctive futura typeface, which he describes as "very kawaii".
- In addition, he often gives his creatures his trademark set of teeth.
Sampling: Prevalent in a majority of his songs. Full list can be seen here.
Musical Satire
Self-Deprecation: He occasionally writes things like ^this:"ENJOY THIS TRASH AS IT LEAVES MY LIFE FOR GOOD :^ ) :^ ) :^ )" on his bandcamp.
- And especially on his album DON'T EVER PAY MONEY FOR THIS ALBUM [FOR SERIOUS]^note
Slogans: A multitude, yet still the same concept: ^1: ^2: ^3: ^4:
Springtime for Hitler: DON'T EVER PAY MONEY FOR THIS ALBUM was made mainly in response to the LegalSounds.com piracy conflict^note. Despite the fact, people seemed to still love the album.
Stylistic Suck: Most of his work revolves around this, especially since he's partially inspired by Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff.
Tribute Album: To Cupcakes; and additionally, BALLS OUT MAGIC [MLP:FML] was again dedicated to the fandom.
What Could Have Been: Futret had originally been conceived as a grindcore project.
