I just sit down with 2-3 synths plugged into my interface/recorder and basically improvise my mood. I either give myself permission to do something totally unstructured and ambient, or focus on trying to get a solid 5-10 minutes of coherent, deliberate sounding playing with chord changes and few mistakes. When I get a good coherent take, I'll just layer upon that and tweak it in the DAW until it's a finished track. The ambient stuff I save in a folder in case I want to paste it on top of something later or use it to bridge songs together. Taking a tip from Brian Eno, I play my rough tracks on a playlist in the background while I do other work to get ideas and figure out if it really sucks or not. My process could probably use tightening up (10 minute rule sounds like a pro-tip).
