Notes: Another in the Homebrew series, Homebrew 4 was first available at live shows in late 2009 and in a Japanese boxset of all four Homebrews, before a general release in the first half of 2010.

1: themes for "Beginnings"
2: an edit of Howe's initial acoustic version then into the first full recording of this piece on Turbulence
3: became the first half of "Novalis" on Turbulence
4: early version of piece on Quantum Guitar
5: alternate version of the piece on Natural Timbre
6: alternate version of the piece on Homebrew 2 and The Grand Scheme of Things
7: written after the birth of daughter Georgia, while on tour with Asia
8: alternate version of the piece on Homebrew 3 and Natural Timbre
9: became the main riff of "Turbulence" on Turbulence; also developed by GTR for an unreleased piece called "The Future"
10: early version of the piece on Turbulence and the second theme from this was used in "I Could have Waited Forever" on Union
11: contains three later released pieces, being a vocal version of "Time Runs Slow" and "Distant Seas" with the riff from GTR's "Still Get Through"
12: early version, before lyrics had been written, of "Wish I'd Known All Along" on Asia's Phoenix
13: early version of the piece on Natural Timbre and later became "Over and Over" on Asia's Phoenix
14: early version of Asia's "One Step Closer"; Wetton wrote new lyrics for the Asia song, but seems to have been inspired by the line here "Making every moment bring us closer than before"
15: demo of the song written with Annie Haslam
16: contains parts of "Distant Seas" and ABWH's "Long Lost Brother of Mine" (with an alternate lyric)
17: early version of the piece sung by Yes on the Drama tour: Howe explains that the Yes version had lyrics by Horn, developed from Howe's initial ideas
18: vocal version of "The Go Between" on Homebrew 2, which became part of "Quartet: I Wanna Learn" on ABWH
19: written while in Bodast and an alternate version of the piece on The Bodast Tapes, this is an edit between a vocal/guitar version and the same piece with overdubs
