The instrumental of this track was released on Donald Glover/Childish Gambino’s Kauai EP, but the vocals are from an acapella track that was hidden in the HTML script code of one of his websites, becausetheinter.net – Glover later confirmed the two were intended to be combined together. The two tracks are separate pieces of a puzzle that serendipitously fit together, and the dichotomy of what we consider old and new media is what allows them to exist independently of each other. However, the fact that they were released in digital form – one as an instrumental EP track, one as hidden easter egg on a website – and discovered to fit together at all, is because of the way we as an audience interact with culture and with each other. And the above mix, which gels the two together organically into one track, only exists #becausetheinternet has given us the tools to become remixers.

See – I understand what Intermediality is, even if it’s a silly word. 😉
