Always feel a fraud when these projects are about music but i made this & found it pleasing:
I Googled about, stumbled through music theory on Wikipedia; chose an appealing chord from here [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-diminished_seventh_chord] & then produced it with relevant sine waves [identified here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_key_frequencies] through individual mixer channels in Audiomulch. I then played these waves back into my front room through conventional stereo equipment, moving the recorder after two minutes of each wave.
In Audacity i mixed the recorded and re-recorded constituent notes back together - deliberately roughly - before tinkering with them in FruityLoops - fading, chopping, phasing, adding reverb &c &c &c
I'm fully prepared to learn that i have done this incorrectly.
