For this project I recorded a few guitar picks and looped the recording. To this I added some spare synth notes. The whole thing then went into a granular reverb. I gradually raised the effect level and finally removed the input entirely.

My goal - as to the prompt - was to put the listener into a meditative state. For this reason, the track is rather long and well above my usual two minute goal. The last few minutes are pretty meditative and I recommend listening only in company of a trained meditation guide so that you don’t get lost forever. You have been warned!
