It was 2:47 AM, and the only light in Leo’s bedroom came from the cold glow of his monitor. His band had broken up two months ago, but the unfinished song still haunted him—a half-recorded demo of a track called Echoes in Static . The vocals were raw, the guitars were loose, and the mix was a muddy disaster. But Leo believed it could be saved.
He launched it.
And then—his monitor flickered.
“Don’t worry. I autosaved.”
