I initially started making this track as a sort of test for the kalimba I got at the time. I had been meaning to get an actual kalimba for the longest time due to the fact that there weren't too many good virtual instrument kalimbas. I had finally gotten around to getting one, and the kalimba you hear in the track was completely recorded in real-time with the one I got into my microphone by me, no VST kalimbas in sight.
As for what purpose this track serves in the tracklisting: I wanted a track that was in the middle of being a beat-oriented track and an ambient interlude-type track. I wanted this to basically feel like a sort of airy version of like Traversa or something.

One of the most wonderful pieces of folktronica I have ever heard, lots of fantastic instrumentation that's very dreamy and layered; if you need a record to simply reflect life on, this should be IT MinimusNoah
Extremely playful, lively, fun, fluid and smooth, all the descriptors that I can describe this with all apply; this one is such a fantastic listen front to back, the world built here is so fantastic MinimusNoah
A wide range of remixes of Wyhatt's fun synthpop travel-themed EP 'The Oregon Trail' that can go from hard-hitting to gentle to scary to fun, and more, really cool stuff on this one MinimusNoah
