clarity (redone original demo) (final mix)

yes, a redone original demo.

i had an instrumental demo of clarity from november, 2001 that i had used to construct the first completed version. somehow, it got lost except in mp3 form. so i reconstructed the demo from the samples and completed it as i did the first time. the redone part is rather trivial - it is virtually identical to the november demo.

this version is structurally different than the version which appears with vocals on the rabit demo. i modified the form of the piece to better facilitate a vocal part. in the absence of that vocal part, it made sense to revert to the original form.

i just feel it's worth capturing in this state, as it was pivotal at this point between being a rabit tune and being for one of my own projects. the initial intent for the piece was for it to open a hypothetical third inri record, named trinri. i'm glad that never happened. so, this is the branching point.

created in the fall of 2001. final reconstruction date is oct 13, 2014.

there's one rule when mixing: don't mix under the influence of anything. i broke that rule, and am going to have to redo the redone clarity original demo. the volume on the mix is all wrong...
