Sunday Ambient #38

Here’s a jam that is inspired by mellow jazz. The Mother 32 synth can produce some rather saxophone-like timbres, which works well over a slow bass/percussion line by the DFAM synth. I recorded this piece over the holidays and enjoyed listening to it again on this lovely Sunday morning. Have a peaceful day!
