@musicweeklies challenge for "UpsideDown".

Each of the chords is voiced upside down. So, the Cmaj chord is voiced G-E-C. I tried to make sure that the 5th of the chord was always in the bass until the very end.

Grubbing through my hard-drive I found a partial track from 2021 - gave it an new drum groove. It was going to be part of a 4 song cycle about the moon. This was the Full moon track.
