I’ve disappeared into a total rabbit hole with these 70s/80s synths. This one features the ARP2600 (in several guises), the Jupiter 8, Prophet 5 and the Fairlight (what a machine that was back in the day!)

This started in my head as another electronic/chill out track but it took on a life of its own and I just went with the flow. Kind of reminds me of ELO in places? I’m currently back in the UK so I’ve got all of my groovy basses at my disposal, so naturally I chose the cheapest one I’ve got to play on this track - a Precision ‘Bitsa’ kindly given to me as a gift by a very good friend.

Thanks @Andrew - Flatwound strings and very meaty Precision pickups of unknown origin!

I was wondering what you meant by "reminds you of ELO", and then every now and then there was a momentary "oh yeah! I see what you mean", but then I don't know what bit it was that made me feel it!!! (So that's a good thing). Cool track, digging the bass sound.
