I See Now, ft Bruce Tessmer

My father and I have debated on and off for decades as to whether sampling can be legitimately considered "making your own music." The issue was finally settled this week when I went into full Avalanches-mode and heavily chopped stems from two of his old tracks ("I See" and "Now"), then mashed them into a completely different song, genre, and performance.
He loved it.
This is that track. All bass guitar and vocal samples were originally recorded by my dad in the mid-90s and recovered by me as FX-less stems in the late 2000s from old VS-880 backup CDs. The drums are chopped from four freesound samples (CC0). Everything else is on-board M8 synths.
