Suerte

This one's a pure struck of shiny luck!
It seems that I made this track back in mid 2019 when I first installed Ableton Live 10, in order to test the new devices. Track was 99% percent done and I just touched a couple of levels.
I sincerely didn't remembered any of it, so it saved my week.
On a personal side:
I'm always vague when I sometimes mention "being on duty" and "real world troubles" and like many people here in WB, I have a job that sometimes interfere with music making. I'm not special because of that in any sense.
I work as a helicopter pilot for the emergency medical national health public service. As you may have heard in the news, Spain is now under lockdown measures in order to contain the epidemic. Numbers slowly start to improve but there's a lot to accomplish yet.
I can fortunately say that these days have been relatively quiet for me and my family, even counting that they also work in health care. I'm heading back home today after a 10 day shift away from home. I'm feeling strangely lonely and isolated, even counting the fact that I work "on the street". Not specially bad, but not calm or in peace either.
Don't get me wrong. I don't want to "play the hero card" in any way or steal the merits of the actual people that are handling COVID19 patients on a daily basis. Helicopters are valuable resources so the actual transport operations these days have decreased, in order to reserve the medium for critical cases. Most of the time, I'm just "the driver" and clearly just a part of a greater team of people.
I'm still available for things like heart attacks and traffic accidents, but since the heavy movement restrictions, those are fortunately quite rare. Most of my daytime now has been about planning, new paperwork and lots, lots of cleaning
I don't exactly know the reason for this rant. I just found this song almost in mastered form hidden in my hard drive when I was about to give up this week and feel a little bit emotional, like hit by a sudden and bright struck of "suerte" or, as you say in English, luck.
Please take care of yourselves and your families and love ones. Stay safe in these strange days.
Lots of love to you, wherever you are.
