Grimes Shares Music Video for Unreleased Song “REALiTi”

Grimes has shared the music video for the previously-unreleased track “REALiTi” from her scrapped follow-up to 2012’s Visions. The track was recorded in early 2013 for what was supposed to be her fourth LP, but the project was eventually scrapped when she decided to change the direction of the record after the reception from the lead single “Go.”

In a description for the video, the Montreal artist (Claire Boucher) laid out the history of the track and why she decided to let it see the light of day:

Since this is no longer gonna be on the album, I’m releasing it as a special thank you to everyone in Singapore, KL, Manila, Jakarta, HK, Shanghai, Beijing, Taipei, Seoul, Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo who came out to the shows! It was an honor to play with a bunch of amazing bands and travel to places I would never otherwise be able to go[.]

This song was never finished. its a demo from the lost album , recorded early 2013. i lost the ableton file, so its not mixed or mastered. i tried to doctor the mp3 into a listenable state, but it was poorly recorded in the first place and never meant to be heard by anyone, so it’s a bit of a mess haha.
