haiku #363: only a chirping insect / told me it was night / so bright was the moon

Borrowed my old man's Fender PM-3 to possible do some more stuff with a steel-string acoustic (since I never really got around getting one myself). Been working on two arrangements lately (Olivia Rodrigos 'drivers licene' and another Sven Helbig piece). I did this short improvisational piece while diddling around with a slide. 

Granted I went way too heavy on the reverb with one of the tracks, I thought the textures/soundscapes themselves turned out quite nice. 

Let me know what you think !

Also: I've got my first soundtrack on Bandcamp, so if you want a free download of cool sci-fi sounds head on over to the following link. You can also check out the last three original albums I've done.

Improvisation_19: Ambient/experimental textures on the Fender PM-3

Nora(naviarhaiku382)

The beginning of all art:
a song when planting a rice field
in the country’s inmost part.

Ichihara Tayo-Jo (1776 – 1865) lost her husband at 31, and for many years she had to take care of her family and business on her own. Tayo discovered haiku thanks to Ishii Ukoo, a local, accomplished haiku poet and friend of hers; she moved to Edo in 1823, where she lived as a haiku master until very old age.

A section (piano melody, bass, piano, mallets piano and field recording backing tracks)
B section (piano melody is routed to a percussion sample bank, randomly triggering percussive sounds, backing tracks continue)
A section (piano melody returns over backing tracks)

For this challenge @disquiet:
Step 1: There’s a now famous quote from the opening of the 2006 film The Prestige. It goes as follows. Give it a read:

“Every magic trick consists of three parts – or acts. The first part is called the Pledge. The magician shows you something ordinary: a deck of cards, a bird, or a man. He shows you this object. Perhaps he asks you to inspect it – to see if it is, indeed, real. You know: unaltered, normal. But of course … it probably isn’t. The second act is called the Turn. The magician takes the ordinary something and makes it do something extraordinary. Now, you’re looking for the secret, but you won’t find it, because of course you’re not really looking. You don’t really want to know. You want to be fooled. But you wouldn’t clap yet. Because making something disappear isn’t enough. You have to bring it back. That’s why every magic trick has a third act, the hardest part, the part we call the Prestige.”

Step 2: This arc, moving from Pledge to Turn to Prestige, can be read as a take on the classic ABA structure, in which a theme is introduced, then something else occurs, and then the piece returns to where it began.

Step 3: Compose and record a piece of music that takes the process described in The Prestige as its blueprint.

NaviarHaiku 363 :
only a chirping insect
told me it was night
so bright was the moon

written by. "Kinkaoo"  Ochi Etsujin (1656-1739)
https://www.naviarrecords.com/about/naviar-haiku

This haiku reminds me of the full moon lit nights that do look like a spooky kind of daylight in the bush- from the chirping insects I imagine drifting back in moon time, many moons and thousands of years.

Many moons ago(NaviarHaiku363)

My original thought was to make a synth insect chirp, but in the end I started experimenting with cross modulating oscillators with noise, filters and VCAs and used that as a 'insect' texture. The bright repeated element was meant to evoke the procession of night, while the drones were the darkness and moon. I think some field recorded ambience would have been a nice addition, but overall it worked okay.
