Of Space and Time (Original Demo)

Back when this song was about to come out, the Dine Alone records team released a few video teasers. I instantly fell in love with the song. Because I am both insanely impatient, and a huge fan, I put together a compilation of the released audio at that time.

Totally forgot about it until tonight, when it randomly came up in shuffle. In the released final versions of the song, Dallas sings high, which sounds great, but this version sounds much rawer, and imo, its as good as it gets. Enjoy!

Fast forward to 8:23. Of Space and Time was floating around for a while…

I remember watching this when it came out and people started asking about the Of Time and Space clip, so much that DA had to respond and say that the full song would be on the next album.

My guess is that they didn’t include it on Little Hell as it is about him exiting AOF, and this album came out a couple of months before that announcement.

Yep, that's the recording this audio came from. I just looped the chorus and patched in the other part to make it longer than just a short snippet.

Happy to share the wealth. If only they had released a teaser with the first verse and the first half of the second verse. I love this version of the song.
