'Dronea' - New Original Music - Playing w/ Some Wavetable Synth Sounds

I realized last night that I haven't been

using the Ableton wavetable synth much recently, if it all, so I decided to try out some presets, as well as making some custom sounds. I started with a few different drone sounds, with Track 1 providing the basis for everything. It plays the chords pictured below, with a distorted, super long release synth sound that I really like. The progression is as follows (sticking to only 3 note chords, so some notes are left out of some places): C, F6, Ebadd2, Abadd2, then C, Amin, Dmin and Amin. The chords borrowed from C minor (the Eb and Ab) add some nice variation, keeping it from being just a straight diatonic thing. Track 2 only plays a single note at the start of each loop, and provides more of a texture rather than anything melodic or harmonic. Track 3 plays single notes, again using a droney, long-release sound, and only plays over every other chord, starting with the 1st, then the 3rd, etc. I played with some automation here, affecting the LFO speed and filter, to give it a lot more variety as it plays. Track is like Track 2, single notes, but it plays in the gaps where Track 2 doesn't play, providing a squishy, bassy sound. Finally, we have Track 5, which adds an actual bassline with an arp. bass sound. I like this idea so far; it definitely isn't super filled in, and maybe a bit slow, but I think there's potential here to dig into.
