Works beautifully, the rhythmic aspects are pretty close to a real world phenomenon like rain pattering on something metal, a flag against a flagpole in the wind, or similar. It ebbs and flows nicely, but I wouldn't even think to try and count it so it doesn't feel weird at all.

I like the rhythm you have created here. Sounds like someone playing park railings with a plimsoll.

So the Disquiet Junto assignment this week was simply to make a piece of music in 29/16 time. This is a super weird time signature. I remembered fooling about with Dilla-type beats using quintuplets (where you count 5s between every beat) and I figured exploring groups of 5 16ths might be worth it. It's a strange feeling to try and take a very mathsy approach, like fitting beats tightly on a fixed grid of 29 steps, and try to replicate some kind of "real" shuffle.

In the second half of the track I use this sample pack from Freesound. A Korean instrument that sounds like a koto. https://freesound.org/people/spt3125/packs/1534/
