Avec Mere - New York

I had another track done on MONDAY - really been feeling the urge to knock these out early this late in the game. Then I heard from an old friend of mine Jordan, and I just had to let that dude know I was thinking about him.
So here we have a resurrection of a song we collaborated on almost 20 years ago. I can't remember the actual genesis of everything, but I think he sent me a bunch of demos, and this one inspired me to lay down a piano track using my family piano at the house I grew up in. It's about as honest as it gets - I used the first mic I could find (1/8" computer deal), played in one room while my dad watched tv in the other, and my mom goofed around on the internet (fun mom fact: whenever she was done browsing the internet, she would back her browser up, back...back...back... to the first page she started on before she actually quit).
Anyway this song became a favorite, and always served as like a beacon of our friendship... you can't do these kinds of things without connections you can't explain.
I took the old mp3 bounce, spruced it up a little for 2022, edited on the m8, added some backing rhythm and RAN'd chip melodies.
Thank you Jordan.
ps. I joined WB two weeks late, and that's always bugged the completionist in me. So to make up for it, let's take the original song I was going to post (proof below), send it straight to the aether, and call that week 1.
I'll make up the 2nd week I missed before this whole thing blows over.
