Funny thing about this tune is the first draft was an entirely different animal. This version formed toward the end of the round and came together in 5 days.
This one actually placed first.

Now a decade old, I thought I would revisit this mix again. I have done this a few times as I continue to learn the craft. I thought it would be a good exercise to undertake as a start thinking about writing again for the next record.
