==Critical Reception==
Despite being only a demo, REALiTi received critical acclaim. MTV says that after "listening to the song, you'll be wondering why Grimes left the track off her album”.http://www.mtv.com/news/2099662/grimes-realiti-video/ Stereogum agreed, saying that REALiTi was "a very good new song" and that "if she's willing to toss great songs like these into the ether, then when is she coming with something official?”.http://www.stereogum.com/1787656/grimes-says-that-she-isnt-scrapping-music-because-of-negative-reactions/news/ The Atlantic notes that the song "is as good as anything on the radio" and goes on to claim that "the song is fabulous" and adds that the recording-quality issues don't prevent the song from sounding better than anything on the radio.http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2015/03/grimes-new-old-song-suggests-her-lost-album-was-incredible/387217/ Pitchfork Media claims the song is the best new Grimes release since Visions and calls it a "compelling step forth", which "absorbs EDM and trance in Boucher's seemingly infinite palette of sound”.http://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/17367-grimes-realiti/ Furthermore, Consequence of Sound named REALiTi the 5th best song of 2015.http://consequenceofsound.net/2015/11/top-50-songs-of-2015/6/
The reaction to the song online was so positive that Grimes said she would consider adding it to her new album, although she believes she has "better". The announcement of the tracklisting to Art Angels revealed that she ultimately complied and added the song to the album, both a new version and the demo which is included in the CD edition.http://www.ew.com/article/2015/10/26/grimes-shares-album-release-date-new-music-and-surreal-video
