Excited to be back for another year, hope to have 52 beats again this year, already starting off rushed with my Wednesday submission.  Off to the mountains for some snowboarding can't wait to hear new music and be inspired by all of you.  Thanks for listening.

this track shines with a snowy blissful kind of lovely heart

The keys so sound so good! Very organic. Great start to the year!

Nice to see you again this year!

That vocal layer on top of the etheral intro is sooo tasty. Nice beat on top of that. The congo percussion layer is also a great choice, with the additional diversity of frequencies. Is there some tabla in the lower layers too?

Great start of the year and I'm looking forward to hearing more! Enjoy the snowboarding!

It really does give off a nice winter wonderland vibe and the Indian style percussion adds a nice unexpected twist.

Very cruisy peaceful vibes. Love it!

I feel myself snowboarding on this. No snow here so I listen to this a couple of times...

Good vibe like the one I get from the lofi radio for study/relax, except more interesting musically. The tabla sample is great, really colors the track. It feels like there are many intertwined layers, esp the pads. But it sounds peaceful and clean, inspiring to think about how you put many (or few?) layers together to make it sound so pure and rich at the same time.

well done!

Awesome job! Rich and essential at the same time. I really like the tabla layer!

Oh yais glad to hear your laid back vibes again this year.  Love the sound of the epiano.  The percussion is a nice contrast to it as well especially when the rides kick in.  Nice work on the outro too.

Brings me back to the downtempo days

And so it begins, indeed.
*head bobs along with this chillness*

This track has a therapeutic value for me. Very peaceful and soothing. Thanks.

Very nice peaceful track, really enjoyed, dig the tablas. A vibe I enjoy for sure. Just the right amount of everything in the mix. Glad to see you back here, looking forward to hearing more in the year ahead.

This one cooled my mind, thank you

love the fuzzy artifacts. Very cool.

This is beautiful

a chiller. enjoyed this.

this is so dope,love it

I am playing hooky from walking dogs in order to tap out this message about how great this track sounds:  The vibe is epic & the mix is impeccable (<— repeat that x3, as fast as possible).  And you were kind enough to mark it a cc0 so don't be surprised if a you hear parts of it remixed in a later WB

Thanks for the kind words, it would be the best compliment if someone uses part of this

Off to a wonderful start. Beautiful vocals, relaxing percussion, and just nice sounds overall.

As the prophecy foretold, I sampled a pad sound from this song in my track for week 06.  Thank you for releasing music under a permissive license!
