Hey there, for this kind of vibe you may be best off hunting in the more organic domain rather than trying to synthesise it yourself.

Of course, synths can make pretty much any known sound with enough programming and trial and error. But organic instruments often have beautiful and unique harmonics that sound amazing instantly. For these kind of sounds experiment with single notes and chords on a good quality Rhodes, organs and wurlitzer instruments – there are some great ones available for Kontakt.

Sampling, chopping, adding reverb, reversing and playing at different pitches. Also time stretching the samples in something like Paul’s Stretch and then loading back into a sampler can give cool results. But one tip would be think organic rather than synthetic for the source harmonics. hope this helps 🙂
