Beautiful, immersive track. Thanks for sharing tech tips and info about Santoka as well!

Undoubtedly one of my favourite haiku poets of the nineteenth century, Santoka spent 16 years of his life as a mendicant Zen priest, probably one of the last of his kind in Japan.

We spoke about Santoka and his poetry many times, and the most detailed article about him I’ve come across is by Simply Haiku: https://simplyhaiku.com/SHv3n3/features/stanford_forrester-santoka.html, which I strongly recommend to those interested in his life and poetry.
