after the typhoon
I walk around alone -
sunshine everywhere

by: Hosomi Ayako

Hosomi Ayako (1907–1997) was a prominent haiku poet from Aogaki, Hyogo. After a series of personal tragedies, including the deaths of her husband and mother, she found solace in haiku during an illness. She later married Sawaki Kinichi, leader of the modern haiku group Kaze, and was deeply involved in the haiku community until her passing at 90.

I Dreamed I Flew With Segmented Angels (naviarhaiku598)

My attempt at a suspense cue for an imagined film. 

I got commissioned to write a film score recently. It ended up being rejected but as luck would have it, shortly thereafter  Marc’s @disquiet assignment came up. So I had quite a bit of material left over from these sessions. I felt they fit the “spooky and tense” bill just nicely. So using these as a starting point, I proceeded to add and remove layers, and a bass synth makes a rare appearance here, as well. Hope you enjoy it!

UN GAUCHO – solo bass

A simple, heartfelt solo bass piece — part of a series of intimate instrumental moments I play live or record at home for fun.
Five-string bass (high C), light effect pedals — just melody, warmth, and a great instrument.

Thanks for listening!

Little song for Kinsha haiku:
"Some starlight
spared from being scooped up
four-handed net."

The title “Llum recollida amb les mans" in my island language is like "Light gathered in the hands” trying to evoke the image of the haiku where light is harvested with a single gesture, as if it were a living substance. The literal translation of haiku takes on another meaning, and the words must be changed so that they have the same poetic meaning.

I came across this poem in the book "An Anthology of Haiku, Ancient and Modern" by Asataro Miyamori. The poet’s surname and the publication date are unknown; only the name Kinsha remains.
