My first ambient track using Sonic Pi

Creations & Ideas

Hi to all! I started playing around with Sonic Pi and after some days of trying and tweaking here is my first (and very basic) ambient song (and my first song in general).
I know it’s very simple and naive, so suggestions are very appreciated :slight_smile:
