Recorded, mixed & mastered 23 Oct 2024 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa.

I put together three generative parts for this in Reason - using Monotone, Felt Instruments Lekko & Subtractor. I then moved over to Ableton Live and did some processing there - shifted each track slightly off-time by stretching. 

This original version of "Surfactant Is Cool" was submitted as part of Naviar Haiku 564, Fog clears Away…

Fog clears away:
the waterfall shows up
bit by bit.

by: Natsume Sōseki (Tr. Sōiku Shigematsu)

Undoubtedly one of the most important Japanese novelists in modern history, Natsume Sōseki began his career publishing haiku and renku poems in a number of newspapers and periodicals. Early in his career he met Masaoka Shiki, who encouraged him to become a writer and tutored him in the art of composing haiku.

Between 1900 and 1903 he studied at the UCL in London, but this proved to be quite a dramatic experience for the young Soseki. Despite this, when Soseki returned to Japan, he exploded into prolific writing activity.

Surfactant Is Cool (naviarhaiku564)

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0669: Phonosynthesis
The Assignment: Make music to help a forest regenerate.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0669 discussion thread on Lines:

Hope the music that we've all created will help forests to grow and flourish. The trees and their friends here in our yard seemed appreciative when I played this for them. 

Created with Ableton Live using Slate+Ash Choreographs, Spectres, and Max4Live devices along with loops, samples and field recordings. Valhalla Delay and Arturia Fragments were used for effects. Photo is from a native Monterey Pine forest next to where I live here in California.

Disquiet Junto Project 0674: Cerberus Sample
The Assignment: Make a song not just with but from just one sample.

Step 1: You’re going to make a song with just one short sample as its entire sonic source material. Select your sample wisely.

Step 2: Make a song in which the sample you selected in Step 1 serves as the raw resource for all the different parts of the song. Use nothing but that solitary sample. Here is one example of a song with four parts: melody, backing chordal material, bass, and beat. Three parts may be best, but make as complex and busy a piece of music as you desire, certainly.

Tasks Upon Completion:

Label: Include “disquiet0674” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.

Upload: Post your track to a public account (SoundCloud preferred but by no means required). It’s best to focus on one track, but if you post more than one, clarify which is the “main” rendition.

Share: Post your track and a description/explanation at https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0674-cerberus-sample/

For this I used 3 instances of VCV Rack running Voxglitch ArpSeq within Ableton Live. In Live, I was running FL Studio with Sytrus loaded, Live's Wavetable and Arturia's Arp 2600. From about 23 minutes, I used this small section towards the end and did a bit of editing.

This original version of "So Glad To See You Again" was submitted as part of Naviar Haiku 571, Stillness.  

stillness:
the sound of petals
sifting down together.
by: Miura Chora

Miura Chora (1729-1780) was a Japanese poet from Toba (present-day Mie Prefecture). Early in his career, he came into contact with the Teimon School, and bonded with the great Yosa Buson. An admirer of Matsuo Bashō, he strived for a return to the simple tones and spirit of the latter's poetics, criticizing the vulgarization of haiku of his era and advocating the so-called "return" to a Bashō's style.
