Sunday Ambient #33

It’s Sunday and that means it’s time for a new ambient jam. I’m going dark and droning this time with some deep percussion sounds mixed in. All of my Moog voices were used, even the often chaotic Subharmonicon. I enjoyed pulling them all into a nice mellow piece.

Not everything is necessarily used for each recording. I record live to my HS6 recorder.
