Download features 10 bonus tracks. Quasar Nebula: (wiki editor) Thanks to a copyright claim on the stock cloud photo in its album cover, [[album:archive|the original Archive release]] was taken down in July 2018. After workshopping a new cover made from original assets, Bowman worked with [[artist:hadron]] to create the final artwork for this September 2018 re-release. The track list was also shuffled around, with ten taken from the main list and made into bonus tracks, [[track:awake-archive]] renamed as [[track:awake-2013-version]], [[track:crimesters-credits]] renamed as [[track:emerys-theme]], and [[track:crimesters-theme]] renamed as [[track:emerys-theme-fast-version]]. Michael Guy Bowman: (Bowmantown Discord, excerpts, 9/4/2018) I've been playing with some ideas for a new version of the cover, I wanted to see what you thought. Here's a really rough one I put together a few days ago: Unfinished "Archive" 2nd edition cover. > oh wow that’s really cool too
> that could be pretty sick
> although I don’t know how well it fits the calmer songs like awake Interesting, is the EYE too abrasive? I've considered versions with an all-seeing Illuminati-esque eye on the screen. What do you think of using a laptop It's the actual one I used until 2012 so it has special significance. It's been shopped a little to make it more symmetrical, just like the old picture. Michael Guy Bowman: (Bowmantown Discord, excerpts, 9/24/2018) [[artist:hadron|@Hadronus]] did great work on the new art and gave me way more than I expected from the new computer he rendered The hand was his idea

I added the same gradient map as before It should be on Spotify soon and I’ll make a new “best of” playlist This has been hanging over me for a while so I’m glad to get this done Banner Artists: - Hadron Banner Dimensions: 975x100 Banner File Extension: png Wallpaper Artists: - Hadron Wallpaper Style: 'opacity: 0.7;' --- Section: Main album --- Track: Awake (2012 Version) Directory: awake-2012-version-archive-2018 Originally Released As: Awake (2012 Version) Duration: '3:32' URLs: - https://bowman.bandcamp.com/track/awake-2012-version - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2RhvFHAbB0 Commentary: |- Michael Guy Bowman: ([Bandcamp about blurb](https://bowman.bandcamp.com/track/awake-2012-version)) Kickstarter reward for Kaolin Maia Cash, 2012 --- Track: Got It?
