Lazing In Shadows  ( Naviarhaiku 504 )

Lazing in shadows,
Conceding the drawing room
to moonrays

Natsume Seibi (1749-1816) was the son of a wealthy Edo rice broker and was acquainted with a number of other famous poets, including Oshima Ryota and Kobayashi Issa. In addition to his poetry, Seibi left behind a number of fine examples of haikai prose.

Lazing & conceding (naviarhaiku504)

Hexfarm is 

Phil Bywater - Saxophones/Flutes
Dane Renshaw - Drums
Mat Ward - Bass Guitar/Vox

The first new track from Hexfarm - who  have managed to jam once a year in 2022 then 2023 for the first time in many many many years. 2 of us now live in Australia with our Japanese residing Drummer flying in once a year for some fun. This was recorded remotely and hot mixed in my home studio - rough garage sounds : ) Lots of improv stuff on tape to see the light of day too in the vault

Lazing in shadows,
Conceding the drawing room
to moonrays
-------------------

When I thought about this haiku, the 'drawing room' made me think  about the place I make music, my music room which I call the blue room as its painted blue.  But as it happens I'm shortly leaving this room so my partner can put her easel up in here and paint where the light (south facing room) is better and I'm moving my music stuff to the north facing side of the house - where I can make music in the gloom!    So this haiku to me seems to sum up my move to a different room in the house, perhaps a change of room will hopefully help my creativity!?

More about this haiku....

Hello again, dear Listeners 😁

It's been awhile, but here's our first Recording Session after a 2 month Summer hiatus...  and OMG, did we ever miss playing together! 😃 

And now that we're back, i just sense that somehow, what emerged here in this almost overly exuberant session presages what's ahead of the two of us this Fall and Winter. I mean, it seems like Our Muses obviously want to activate us, and let the Music continue to flow through us! 

So...  Many Many Thanks from both of us to our Listeners. We appreciate you immensely.  

In this Session, Tim is playing a Custom 1980's Attila 'Tone Monster' electric guitar, and i am  once again on his ancient Upright Heintzman Grand Piano.  

And as you'll hear... it was quite a lengthy conversation!  :-D

May you enJOY! 
 
🕊️Peace, ❤️Love, 🙏Respect
