Rainy city: smooth jazz to the sound of rain and rare drops on the glass “Rainy-city smooth jazz: steady rain and occasional drops tapping on glass as the atmospheric layer. Soft electric piano with subtle chorus, muted trumpet with a velvety tone, upright bass, brushes with sparse snare accents. The rain should feel like a cozy blanket around the instruments. 78–85 BPM, minor key, intimate, close-mic’d production with a touch of tape saturation. Feel: cozy, reflective, urban intimacy.
