What's Happened to You?
Track one of the first album, and the first song to go fully 2026.
Music
Original Songs. Reimagined Reach.
Original archive samples, Reimagined Edition teasers, release notes, credits, Bandcamp support links, and streaming destinations in one focused place.
Before and after
Make The Difference Obvious.
The core interaction is intentionally simple: play the original archive excerpt, then flip to the 2026 version mid-play and back again. One song plays at a time, always at the same spot.
Girl Just Like Mary Tyler Moore
The fan-favorite archive oddity, finally given a finished version.
As the Sun Sets
The same opening thirty seconds, twenty-five years apart.
Discard
A dorm-room recording first, then the 2026 rebuild of the same passage.
Risk Is Everything
The title track, side by side with its Reimagined Edition.
Something
One of the quieter archive recordings, with the most room to grow.
You Only Know Yourself
Straight from the original sessions into the 2026 production.
The Hopeless Romantic Love Song
The same hopeless romance, restored for 2026.
