@douglasmseidel: bass, drums, oscillators, stylophone, water bottle, wheel frame, zither, other stuff
@walltone: guitar in the middle
todd: vocal, words

words:
we told her she was headed for some kind of fractured future 
the same lame farce in near-field infrared even more severe
transmission bursting quindar tones describe in static beeps 
a dozen fire tornadoes
these were the many hot hydra heads that cooked me

drop the reigns on the hydra heads 
douse the flames on the hydra heads 
drop the reigns on the hydra heads that cooked me

if you put that thing on a stick will it cook how close and for how long
shove the pitchfork in the soil 
the worm has turned

watch the nasturtium turn to regretting
hard frost in a standing wave
profusions 
of getting for the getting

take a ticket take a tab 
stick a marker chit chitty flags and stamps 
unrub the lavender

take a ticket tab 
sticker marker chit chitty flag stamp 
unrub the lavender

unrub

woodpecker dust carpenter ants termites and thrushes
that spar is done honey they got the best part 
its no good to either of us now lets throw this thing over the hill
whattaya want for lunch 
I'm dreaming toasted pine nuts on a slurry of baba ganoushes

woodpecker dust

Nightfall

This is my first time submitting a piece. The sound quality is often times very poor, due to making a decision to incorporate a low-quality mp3 in with the mix, and do an awful lot of pitch/tempo manipulations with this, a recording of cello and solo guitar recording. Also used a tiny bit of sound from the Disquiet Junto-0122 project. A bunch of samples eating one another.

Naviarhaiku 020 - Voyage not over

Made for the Naviar Haiku Group   { http://soundcloud.com/groups/naviar-laboratory/info } 

This week's haiku = <i>Voyage not over; 
                                     traveler’s forgotten shame
                                     under the night sky </i>

This reminded me of a track I'd been working on and put aside which evoked the story of The Wander, Eardstapa (an Old English poem). Possibly a long bow to draw, but here's the result anyway. As I recall, the original sample was a fragment of Gregorian chant.

<b>The Wanderer conveys the meditations of a solitary exile on his past happiness as a member of his lord's band of retainers, his present hardships and the values of forbearance and faith in the heavenly Lord. The warrior is identified as Eardstapa, usually translated as "wanderer", who roams the cold seas and walks "paths of exile".</b>

A Stormy Time

Multi-instrumentalist and music explorer...er...back from a long expedition! Never get banished to an island full of clarinets and other people, presumably some are clarinetists plucked from rehearsals. Some jerk will want to make a clarinet flare exhibition for passing aircraft, SOS and the likes. Many people with wooden clarinets will have broken hearts. They will, instead, whistle. At which point...get off of the island!!! Hopefully your coordinates are already known by a large ship full of friends who like food similar to your favorite foods and are aware of all allergies. 
(Musically, I will have compensated for this typed intro by some point if you leave some on and forget all about them having been on, awhile later. Since you are probably already on Clarinet Island.  Some tracks are a direct antidote to Island Clarinet Carbons Sickness of the Upper Ankle.
