Tried to make something a little more upbeat, not sure I succeded at that, also might have got a little too messy with all the different synths (jx-03, microkorg xl, volca keys, volca bass, analog lab).  I really struggled this week, probably spent the most time so far for this week yet not sure about the result.  Thanks for listening and any comments.

I like the abstract quality, but I wouldn't call it upbeat.

Really dig it when it gets funky!
Chords, stabs and voices are real nice!
And well done ending!

Makes me want to get up and dance! smile

The piano progression doesn't marry that well woth the superfunky bassline and the fantastic acidic line. It's like listening to two songs altogether, though both are great. Maybe developing the funky one would take you to a more uptempo vibe?

Guess this is what Giphy understands as "uptempo":
