      I can hear japaneese inspirations there. And also 90's acid jazz stuff (ala Incognito).

    Every now and again I’ll wake up with the most beautiful melody rolling around in my ears and think excitedly to myself, “what a beautiful song this could be!” And a few minutes into fleshing it out on guitar or bass I realize I just woke up with Meditation stuck in my head.
    This song is a dream, thank you for sharing it with us all.
