Baroque flute soaring above the quartet, harp cascading arps.
Sub bass sidechain doubled for harder pump. Flute and harp both
play through the DnB interruption.

Added separate 808 kick at volume 0.8, velocity 125 — four on the floor
layered under the breakbeat. Breakbeat bumped to 0.6, sub bass to 0.7.
Bar 33 should now feel like a wall hitting you.

King Tubby at midnight. One drop kick, upright bass, offbeat skank guitar,
melodica drenched in delay, trumpet stabs echoing into infinity.
Cathedral reverb on everything. Space between the hits IS the music.

D minor, 85 BPM (170 feel when DnB hits). Pure classical string quartet
for 32 bars — violin 1 melody, violin 2 harmony, viola chords, cello bass.
Bar 33: breakbeat SLAMS in with sub bass and reese. Strings keep playing
like nothing happened. Beat dissolves, strings win, play out alone.

Dropped taj_mahal reverb for short algorithmic (0.5s decay).
Volume 0.4 → 0.5. Should cut through clean now.

Etheric/gypsy intro texture:
- Tingsha strikes every 3 bars, ringing in taj mahal reverb
- Rainstick slow wash every 4 bars
- Finger cymbal accents scattered through first 16 bars
- Deep singing bowl (B1) every 8 bars
All fade out as the drones take over.
