Thanks for the background info on the DX7.  I'm not super knowledgeable about different sorts of synths, so it's always cool to learn a bit more about them.  Some really nice textures here and it does give those floaty feels for sure.

Yes, it is almost massage music sounding synth . I tried to make the chords relaxing, but include a few harmonies that are not just basic triads, to give it a small edge. The giant reverb took the edge away, anyway   Thanks, I am glad you liked it and found it soothing.

Haha . This reminds me of the story that Thomas Dolby told in a podcast lately. Before he made his name as a solo artist he did a lot of session work and was hired to update the sound for Foreigner, the famous British/US AOR band. They were recording the album Foreigner 4 and they wanted to use synths; therefore they hired Thomas. One night he had done a beautiful synth intro for a track (which was to become the hit of the album), they guys arrived next morning to hear what he had done. The track was played and an awkward silence resulted... then the bass player said...."well...that sounds a bit like massage music".
