disquiet0678 - 2024 (60sec)

on New Year's Day
everywhere, a corrupt world's
blossoms.

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa (1763-1828) was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun.

Even though afar
a feeling of coolness comes
from those mountain pines

by: Kagami Shikō

Kagami Shikō was a Japanese poet, considered one of the ten outstanding disciples (Shōmon jittetsu 蕉門十哲) of Matsuo Bashō. He was in turn the master of the famous poetess Fukuda Chiyo-ni.

Originally from the present-day Gifu Prefecture, Kagami Shikō became a monk at Daichi-ji Temple, and in 1690 he became a pupil of Bashō, later accompanying him on some of his journeys and recording his last will in 1694.

After Basho's death, he kept travelling around Japan, writing several essays on haiku and collections of writings until his death in 1731.

Disquiet Junto Project 0681: Drama Course
The Assignment: Record a piece of music to transform a walk or a run into something theatrical.

I started with a bassline and had a kind of wet step drum. I wanted the bass and drums to swell on and off, two people chasing each other and stopping to look around. The main motif that builds up depicts the chaser getting closer and closer. All but the mastering is done in my old trusted caustic app.

I read the haiku and imagined the smell of a rose and all the interesting places our memories can go to.  All sounds are native devices in Ableton Live, using my own presets/racks, all being played by multiple instances of a sequencer I put together in Max For Live with the help of Claude.ai.

a thought takes flight,

I translated Vincenzo's haiku from Italian, and made some minor variations. I hope you'll find it inspiring.
