I guess lost media isn't always lost forever...

This track was made back in 2018 as a remix by a user named ATNation. After the account mysteriously disappeared halfway through the competition, I took it upon myself to delete my track and restore the draft back to its original state in a failed attempt to keep the competition going.

This track lived on my SoundCloud for a bit, which is why I was fine with deleting it here, but I eventually took it off to make room for other things. I was okay with this, since the original file still existed on my school account's Google Drive.

Unfortunately, when I graduated, that account along with everything on it was deleted, which left no more traces of the file in existence for over five years.

...Until today, when on a whim I decided to check the bookmarks of the original draft. Massive credit to Audiotool, because I didn't know they did this, but apparently every time you publish a draft it saves a new bookmark. All I had to do was go back to the bookmark before the current one, and there was my track, just as I had left it.

This track isn't very good. It has no business being five minutes long and it sounds like dogshit, but it's the most beautiful thing I've heard in a while. I'm publishing it because I feel this track, after being borderline lost media for over five years, deserves to exist. I always like a track with a story, and this is one of my greatest stories yet.

More serious music later this month
