Bubblilities.wav

Do you have a "bubblilities.wav" hiding on your hard drive? A forgotten recording, a typo that became a title, a sketch that never became a song? Tell me about it in the comments. Let’s build a library of the almost-works.

I don’t remember recording it. I don’t remember exporting it. But every six months, when my algorithm feeds me a vaporwave track or I hear the glug of a coffee maker, I search my memory for that file. I open it in Audacity.
