Nice, mellow groove!

FYI, code is easier to share if you wrap it in pairs of three backticks (`).

Like this:

```ruby

use_bpm 92

live_loop :chords do
use_synth :hollow

play chord(:e3, :minor7), release: 3, amp: 1.2
sleep 2

play chord(:c3, :major7), release: 3, amp: 1.1
sleep 2

play chord(:g3, :major7), release: 3, amp: 1.1
sleep 2

play chord(:d3, :sus2), release: 3, amp: 1.1
sleep 2
end

live_loop :drums do
sample :bd_haus, amp: 2
sleep 1

sample :sn_dolf, amp: 1
sleep 1

sample :bd_haus, amp: 1.8
sleep 1

sample :sn_dolf, amp: 1
sleep 1
end

live_loop :hats do
sample :drum_cymbal_closed, amp: 0.4
sleep 0.25
end

live_loop :glitch do
sleep 4
sample :vinyl_backspin, rate: 0.8, amp: 0.6
end

```

Hello, I have made some modifications to the code. I also used the ZynAddSubFX synthesizer.
