Sunday Ambient #39

Here’s a mellow jam for a kind of dreary Sunday afternoon. We’ve got light rain off and on, which I won’t complain about - we definitely need it. This jam has a gentle lounge music sort of vibe to it. The DFAM plucks the bass while the Subharmonicon and Mother 32 play their melodies. Get your headphones on, maybe have a cup of coffee or tea, then sit back and chill for a bit.
