kennethreitz 1123e773e4 Silk Road: dry-to-wet koto, tabla grows with caravan, remove Culture Clash
Koto starts bone dry, reverb fades in like mist over 16 bars.
Tabla volume/velocity increases as each civilization joins.
Culture Clash removed for rework.

kennethreitz 256d2d45c9 Tracks 6 & 7: Silk Road + 2AM
Silk Road: D minor, 95 BPM. Koto → sitar+tabla → mandolin+doumbek →
guitar+cajon → all together. Musicians join the caravan, nobody leaves.

2AM: Eb minor, 72 BPM, swing 0.15. Lo-fi hip hop study beats.
Rhodes, vinyl crackle, lazy boom-bap, upright bass, saxophone.
The anti-acid track. Just vibes.
