This was fun. It's mostly analog piano chords -my files say
"Dm over F, Em over G and Bm" stretched in Audacity, along with some cello notes turned metallic from stretching, and a few clinks and clanks and stuff. An old music box. My daughter offering some spooky vocals.

Thanks for listening y'all!
