Public Radio bumper music

Unsolved

I heard an instrumental song on my public radio station yesterday between segments. I think it’s kinda popular because I’ve heard it before but never knew the name. I was driving and couldn’t Shazam it at the time.

Kind of a 70s mellow smooth jazz vibe. It has a basic drum beat that propels it along at a relaxed 70bpm or so. The main melody is by two harmonizing flutes or recorders. They play two bars of the main riff, repeat for another two bars, then a guitar plays an ascending scale pattern and takes over another melodic line.

I’ve sort of notated two bars of the harmonized flute/recorder melody. Any recognition?

EDIT: Here's the best I could approximate it with the online sequencer. Couldn't figure out ties and slurs for articulation, so it's an approximation. The last ascending scale pattern is when the guitar takes over the next melody.
