Close your eyes and float away into the dreams of others in the hive, connected through this calm ambient piece.

# Process Notes
I made this track entirely using Hive 2 - every sound generated in this track comes from one of the 12 instances of Hive 2 in this track.
I limited myself to a single synth for two main reasons, firstly because I just bought Hive 2 on a Black Friday sale and wanted to get to know it quickly and also secondly because I enjoy the creative freedom that ironically comes with working within restrictions and limitations in choice.
