Hey there Will. I had made a mistake when uploading the single on the official website. Well, actually, I made two mistakes. The first .zip i uploaded, my remix in particular wasn't comparative in volume as Matt's other songs, so it sounded really off when listening to them in a track list. The second upload, i accidentally mixed up two of my songs and had another (that wasn't the remix) in there tagged AS the remix. I didn't catch that soon enough and only realized it on the way to class this morning. The correct upload IS up and has the right files this time. Download it again just to make sure you have the correct files. How many more mistakes can i make?

Thanks!

Thanks for the request, I'm glad you enjoy the music. You can help support this DIY project by sharing it with your friends and coming by the website and making purchases. You can also help you get free music by sending your email address to nevynnowhere at gmail.com It'll be even more helpful as I ditch myspace, which will happen at some point.
