Digital/Vinyl Differences
The version featured on the 12" vinyl features several differences when compared to the original digital release. The piano is much sharper and less muted, some of the stringy sounding synth from the reprise of the main piano motif is missing, and the drum outro is completely gone and replaced with nary a sign of a beat at all. It's more implied by bouncing synthesizers than with any kind of percussion.
In an email released by Sacred Bones it was revealed that in fact the vinyl version was a demo, which Trent and Atticus decided to rework after the vinyl had already been pressed. The vinyl plates have not been updated erronously.
