This is a bit of a funny one as we actually have 6 unreleased tracks that sort of go together, and only one semi-released track
Unreleased Tracks - Personal Theme Songs from Project Atma Kickstarter
When people ask what was so tough about the Project Atma Kickstarter, I usually start with our travails around tracking most of the album but then the band almost breaking up, switching producers, and starting over from scratch.
However, the other thing that was fun but honestly just took a LOT of work were all of the weird quirky rewards we thought up. One of my favorites, but also one that was incredibly hard, was that people could sign up at a reward level to have IFD write their personal theme song.
I didn't want to skimp out, so these kept getting pushed off until I could find time to write them and we could get into the studio to record them. Finally in September of 2015 (2.5 years after we launched the kickstarter!) we delivered these to people, and were officially at the end of the Kickstarter. But so far they're never been heard beyond the people that bought them! I've taken out any name identifiers from the file names in case people want to remain anonymous, but I thought I'd share them here because they're a lot of fun.
Semi-Released Track - "The Legend of Zelda Theme - Studio Version"
We initially recorded this to go on Welcome To The Breakdown, but in the end we actually couldn't get a mechanical license for it - apparently at the time Nintendo had withheld all of their intellectual property from officially being "released" (a practice which I'm 99% sure has since changed) which meant that no one could release a legally licensed cover of their material (obviously lots of non-legal covers existed).
So it was cut from the EP, but I had already sent it out to some folks like our Lifetime Members, so it's been floating out in the world for a select few.
