I hope it was clear Ruby and Quiet Village are the exact versions that appeared on the Dionysus Lost Episode release. The other two tracks, which are posted, are just flutes and drumkit so I wonder if its Baxter at all. No singing. Do you hear any of his signatures in these tracks? I want to think the drums have a Baxter sound (loose jazz beat, reverb) but it can be anything.

Baxter or not, I wonder why they released such acetates. To promote airplay? To check EQ?
