ok, so i've got this broken down into a flow of ideas, even if i can't date it well. i think most of it had to be after august because i remember doing it in the house i moved to in august. anyways...

i've got two incomplete mixes from 2002. neither can be a final mix.

the first one was made in cakewalk. i seem to have then modified the output on it and saved over it, which wouldn't have been an error - it's how i worked. so, i only have that version in mp3. this has been the version i've been uploading to places since 2010, because i wasn't happy with the final one and didn't want to sit down and fix it. i'm going to reconstruct it in cubase - that won't be difficult, as i have all the source files. it's just a question of lining them up and setting the levels. i'll upload a remaster of this because it's the only version anybody's ever heard.

the second mix was supposed to be the completed one and was done in the old cool edit way of pasting files on top of the collage. i didn't have a fast enough computer to keep going in cakewalk. i stayed with this process for years, until i upgraded the old pc in 2007. the problem with this mix is that i put really goofy prog rock guitar and synth parts into it that kind of broke it. i'm going to reconstruct this and upload it, but with the volume on those parts down a little.

before i do these things, i need to check the score. the score as it is is going to come up in soundblaster-rendered midi song form. depending on how much i add, i may do that a second time. a final score version will also go through a vst render process.

when that's all done, i'll need to combine everything together for a final mix.

that sounds like a lot of work but it's really not. christmas at the latest.
