Bace - where did you go

Photo: coffee mill, Santa Ana, El Salvador, 2010.

Some more chilled stuff, seems to be the way of things for the moment.

Drums: NI Kontakt sample pack.
Bass: Sandberg Elektra 4-string with flats through NI Guitar Rig with an octaver on from time to time which gives it a kinda synth bass vibe..
Guitars: Godin Montreal Semi-Acoustic with flats into NI Guitar Rig and Archetype Mateus Asato and Arturia Efx Motions.
Keys: various NI and Arturia keys. The intro rising pad Arturia Mini-V. 
Mastering: Ozone 10 Standard because Ozone 11 crashed!!!
DAW: Ableton 12.

Started out with the bassline against the drum sample at the beginning of the track and seemed to need a second section / theme. Most notable as I dug out my Jim Dunlop wah for the first time in a number of years for this one as well.

Hope you enjoy - as ever please listen all the way through = good karma.

Drums and percussion: NI Kontakt sample pack through Baby Audio IHNY-2 compressor and NI Transient Master.
Bass: Sandberg Elektra 4-string with flats through NI Guitar Rig + separate DI channel with Klanghelm MJUCJR compressor and stock Ableton EQ.
Guitars: Godin Montreal Semi-Acoustic with flats into NI Guitar Rig and Archetype Mateus Asato + Jim Dunlop wah. 
Keys: lots of synths for the pad build section with various NI and Arturia keys (mainly Juno). Some Crow Hill Dulcet Voice and Cosmos. Also some Spitfire BlankFor and UAD PolyMax. Rhodes is NI as well.
Mastering: Ozone 11.
DAW: Ableton 12.

SC seems to be adding some distortion to bass/kick which sounds fine in WAV, hopefully won't be an issue for Spotify etc. It sounds fine on Bandcamp as well and it's free to listen there https://ubomusic.bandcamp.com/track/in-retrospect - thanks.

Pretty laid back, this started out with bass and drums and seemed to need go somewhere. The simple piano melody in the middle section is a grouping of 5-notes but off-set by 1/16 and then various delays added.

Drums: NI Kontakt sample pack.
Bass: Sandberg Elektra 4-string with flats through NI Guitar Rig.
Guitars: Godin Montreal Semi-Acoustic with flats and a Suhr Custom Classic both into Archetype Mateus Asato.
Keys: various NI and Arturia keys. Spitfire piano with Crow Hill Piano Rack.
Strings: Crow Hill Small String Gestures.
Mastering: Ozone 11 Standard.
DAW: Ableton 12.

Initially bass and drums came together before I was messing about trying to mimic the 'Everything in its right place' synth sound, failed on that but liked the resultant Prophet 5 sound so repeated the guitar chords on that. The second section of the track has a Latin bass I guess, with a repeating 7-note ascending melody (I'm fond of these). There's a guitar part as sequence of 7-notes that is doubled on Rhodes.

Drums: NI Kontakt sample pack.
Bass: Sandberg Elektra 4-string with flats through NI Guitar Rig.
Guitars: Suhr Custom Classic both into Archetype Mateus Asato.
Keys: various NI and Arturia keys. Crow Hill Piano Rack on the Prophet there's some Crow Hill Cosmos double the Juno sustained pad later one.
Mastering: Ozone 11 Standard.
DAW: Ableton 12.
