Today Grimes drops the extremely caffeinated demo for “Go.” She expressed on her tumblr she wasn’t sure how it leaked, but that it “doesn’t seem to hurt anything” considering it’s not that far off from the mastered version that surfaced earlier in this year.
She had the following to say in addition:
haha james just sent me this weird demo of go, considering the wackiness of the breakdown i assume this is the orig demo cuz we were extremely caffeinated that day
in any case i dunno if its particularly different from the ‘final version’ but im always interested in hearing demo versions of things so i figured yall mite b. i think we mighta mixed a bit of the soul out of it in retrospect, i appreciate the absurdity of mike’s 2nd drop, the thicker snares in the intro etc. its a bit more crowded
also these are demo vocals for songwriting purposes only and they suck a lot so dont mind them.
** also have no idea how this leaked but it doesn’t seem to hurt anything that it exists
Listen to the “Go” demo below.
