Happy Sunday y’all! Wow, another weekend got away from me and here I am doing a late Sunday evening ambient jam post. Lots going on lately and there’s not as much time as I’d like for music making. Still, I’m trying to be disciplined in doing a weekly post. Here we go!

This is a short piece I recorded a while back while playing with the After Later Audio Dice module I picked up. Here it sequences my Mother 32 duo. That’s about all I remember, as I was too busy at the time to document the patch. Obviously have some delay going on and there’s a good bit of modulation, mostly from the Chaos module I’m sure.

I listened to this while running some errands today and felt like it was just what I needed to hear. It helped lighten my melancholic mood and reminded me how fortunate I am to have some wonderful synths and a bit of free time to play around with them once in a while.
