Made for Friendly Music Jam 3 - Break The Rules

https://itch.io/jam/friendly-music-jam-3

For the Friendly Music Jam 3, I tried to capture the feel of the theme image, which evoked a 'Boards of Canada' style to work with. This inspired a warm, subdued chord progression that evolves throughout the piece.

To avoid the limitations of a purely ambient track within the "break the rules" theme, I approached several differing elements. The percussion is inspired by Autechre's Amber. Drums are on a quarter swing, and evolve throughout the track.

Harmonic shifts and key changes occur throughout the song. While certain sections repeat, the accompanying instrumentation evolves.
