This week's Disquiet Junto, number 0717, invited us to collaborate with an ancestor. I recalled my kinship with a certain pioneering electronic musician, my reclusive great aunt Carly Wendos. (Her catalog is strangely absent from most streaming services, but she was something of a sensation in classical music.)

The piece is a favorite of hers, an interpretation of Beethoven's Piano Trio #5 in D Major, Op. 70 No.1, the so-called "Ghost Movement". Aunt Carly rocks the Moogs while I supply the string section via live electric violin.

In all seriousness, this one is dedicated to my trans elder Wendy Carlos. Thank you for making a way for us.

Potshotsera Freonsone

Abstract ambient instrumental with a gentle pulse — playfully shifting between major and minor moods.
Layered synthesizers (10 tracks across 6 synths), all performed in real time — no sequencing, just hands-on, old-school playing.

Inspired by this haiku:

an autumn nightfall
the skeleton of a huge fish
drawn back by the sea.

— Saitō Sanki (1900–1962)

skeleton by the sea - naviarhaiku617

A reworking for this track in my archive originally created in autumn 2024, after a few versions in the last year i  find it fits well with the context of Haiku Music Challenge Naviarhaiku 617



an autumn nightfall
the skeleton of a huge fish
drawn back by the sea.

by: Saitō Sanki



Saitō Sanki (1900 – 1962) was a dentist who discovered his passion for haiku poetry in his mid-thirties, when his colleagues at the hospital in Soto Kanda convinced him to write a haiku for a collection. Later, he became one of the most important exponents of wartime haiku: he was imprisoned in 1940 during the government’s World War II persecution of controversial artists, and was officially forbidden to write until the end of the war.

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0722: Spook Street. The Assignment: Make music for a haunted spy film.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0722 discussion thread on Lines:

Used a sample of the theme music from the classic spy film with the similar name as the foundation of this piece. It was pitched down in Ableton Live and altered using mainly Soundtoys effects. Additional tracks were added using Native Instruments PlayBox, Madrona Labs Sumu and Slate+Ash Choreographs. Hope everyone has a very frightful night…

the harp player (Naviarhaiku 618)

I create original experimental, postpunk, and experiential music from my studio in Chicago. The Hard Times described my work as "creepy, haunted, but also a little bit uplifting." Prolific.
