The main instrument here is Scenic. Used it for several sounds. Also used a bit Expanse, Legend. But Scenic really set the tone for this track with it's blend of natural/electronic kind of style.
I'm quite surprised to say that the growly bass is Sidmaster. Not something you'd expect from a chip synth.

Love it, what did you use for drums? Also the acoustic guitar sounding instrument in the background, is that Scenic?

Thanks.
There isn't that much stuff going on in this track, so I might as well make a little instrument breakdown.

Scenic: Main melody lead.
Scenic: Lead at 0:34.
Scenic: String plucks in the background at 0:34.
Scenic: Arpeggio plucks at 0:51.
Expanse: Guitar sounding instrument.
Legend: Synth lead/chords at 1:09.
Legend: Noise Sweeps.
Sidmaster: Bass.
Oberon: Plays along with the bass to add some stereo width and movement. It's pretty subtle. You'll hear it more at 1:17 just before the main bass kicks in.
Europa: Raspy background effect at 1:38.
Rytmik: Kick, snare, hi hats, percussion. Though most of the sound/character comes from Crapre2 and Disperser. The beat was originally inspired from a Beatmap groove, but I've made changes to it.
Dr Octo Rex: Percussion loop.

That was actually more stuff than I thought. :)

That bass sounds very good, it greatly reinforces the harmony in some parts.
0:49 and 2:10 are my favorite parts, those chords sound epic.

Thanks. Those parts were the last I wrote for the track. They were pretty much done by force when I realized I needed another part. So I'm glad to hear that it worked out.
