naviarhaiku471 – Evening sky
Evening sky,
the silhouettes of farmers in their fields
deepen.

(translated by James Abrams)

A wandering poet and ascetic Zen priest, Santōka was a disciple of Ogiwara Seisensui, one of the first poets to discard the traditional use of the 5-7-5 structure in haiku.

Santōka’s poetry emphasizes the necessity of sabi (solitude) in order to achieve spiritual enlightenment and serenity.

Seven days to make music in response to the assigned haiku: to participate visit https://www.naviarrecords.com/about/naviar-haiku

Deadline: 18th January 2023

This is a track inspired by what has got to be one of the more influential Rock Albums in my World!
It seemed like to right time to put this one out: The World in General continues to be an increasingly less friendly place--featuring animalistic behavior from those in any position of authority right on down to all the rest.
I've been experimenting with tunings lately; and I've found that my somewhat "vintage" Gibson Les Paul Special seems to favor being tuned in "D Standard"...which is the original tuning employed for this iconic and timeless Pink Floyd number.
I've given this version an "outro treatment" employing a "Dog Combat Soundtrack" edit and mix (with light "phase", of course!); which seemed appropriate, since the original had some "Dog Audio Samples" inserted in it, as well!
As per usual, I'm responsible for all of the sounds you are hearing here--including concept, performance and production. - Thrust

Born in Montreal, Andy Kim was inspired by the Beatles, Hank Williams, Frank Sinatra, Elvis, Buddy Holly, and Bob Dylan. He found fame in New York City at just 16 years old when he wrote How’d We Ever Get This Way?, the first of nine Billboard Top 40 hits, including #1 songs Rock Me Gently and Sugar, Sugar, one of Billboard’s “Greatest Songs of All Time.” A true Canadian son, Andy has been awarded the country’s top industry honours three times, the JUNO Award for outstanding achievements in the record industry, as well as the Indie Award for Favorite Solo Artist and a star on Canada’s Walk Of Fame. Andy is a member of Songwriters Hall of Fame and was inducted into Billboard’s Hit Parade Hall of Fame. Over his epic career, Andy has sold over 30 million records, and The Archies’ “Sugar, Sugar” has been streamed over 350 million times on Spotify and YouTube.
For nearly 20 years, The Andy Kim Christmas has been gathering friends and fans together to celebrate the spirit and generosity of the musical community with all proceeds going to charity. The concerts have brought people together from coast to coast on television and in concert, bringing its cumulative money raised to over $2.3 million. The one-of-a-kind charity event has previously included performances by some of the country’s most sought-after singer-songwriters and performers. Past guests include Ron Sexsmith, Kim Mitchell, Sarah McLachlan, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Feist, The Sheepdogs, City and Colour, Nelly Furtado, and more.

Tom Wilson is a Canadian music legend, famed storyteller, and visual artist, is a three-time Juno winning Canadian musician with multiple gold records. He has written for and recorded songs with Sarah McLachlan, City and Colour, Jason Isbell, Colin James, Lucinda Williams, Billy Ray Cyrus, Mavis Staples, and The Rankin Family. His band Junkhouse has scored eleven top-ten hits, and his iconic, Americana-fuelled Blackie and the Rodeo Kings have organically evolved into one of the finest roots-oriented bands in music and remains one of Canada’s greatest treasures. Tom’s most recent incarnation, Lee Harvey Osmond, has received extensive praise and airplay throughout North America. His art has shown in galleries in New York City, Vancouver, Toronto and more recently, Ottawa.
But uncovering a web of family secrets set him off on a lifelong journey to reconnect with his identity. With a rare gift for storytelling and an astonishing story to tell, in his critically acclaimed autobiography, Beautiful Scars, Tom writes with unflinching honesty and extraordinary compassion about his search for the truth. It's a story about scars, about the ones that hurt us, and the ones that make us who we are.

The assignment this week was to produce a song with as much silence as notes. I did not interpret silence as being total silence.

Sample Sighs

MMMMM...O
there hung an Iroquois sign
by the neon tubes above the Hang Moon Bar
music on the warm night air...bare thighs stickin to the hood of my beat up car
keepin to ice water...pullin tangles from my hair...catchin up on Old Town gossip
same old stuff, I swear
yea...and this hood still holds the heat
of too much highway...
the fever of the lines has lost its grip, and
sittin here - by the swingin pine
of the Iroquois sign
misfirin' neon gas
murmurin out the evenin
...at the Hang Moon Bar
and here I go...on
thighs stickin to the hood of my ole beat up car
yea...get on for a cruise
up to the drive in lot
tumbleweeds in congress with the old spent shells of my buckshot
roll me out tobacco for the ones who wander on
ghosts on the highway...
past the bar...with the Iroquois sign

The Vanishing Path II
marks the final step of the album Tides of Melancholy. Nine chapters of doubt, longing, and inner struggles lead to this very moment – the end of a long and burdensome journey. Sadness lingers in its melodies, with the piano opening like a distant memory of everything that has passed. Yet with every note, something greater unfolds: choirs, strings, and percussion transform melancholy into something majestic, almost comforting.

This finale is not only a farewell but also a promise. It reminds us that every path, no matter how difficult, eventually reaches its end – and within that end, peace can be found. For those caught in darkness and doubt, this track seeks to offer courage: the courage to keep moving forward, the courage to let go, and the courage to discover a quiet strength in transience.

The Vanishing Path II bildet den letzten Schritt des Albums Tides of Melancholy. Neun Stationen voller Zweifel, Sehnsucht und innerer Kämpfe führen zu diesem Moment – dem Ende eines langen, beschwerlichen Weges. Traurigkeit liegt in den Klängen, das Klavier eröffnet leise wie eine Erinnerung an alles Vergangene. Doch mit jedem Ton entfaltet sich etwas Größeres: Chöre, Streicher und Schlagwerk erheben die Melancholie in etwas Erhabenes, fast Tröstliches.

Dieses Finale ist nicht nur ein Abschied, sondern auch ein Versprechen. Es erinnert daran, dass jeder Weg, so schwer er auch sein mag, irgendwann sein Ende findet – und dass im Ende auch Frieden liegt. Für all jene, die in Dunkelheit und Zweifel gefangen sind, will dieser Track Mut sein: Mut, weiterzugehen, Mut, loszulassen und im Vergänglichen eine stille Stärke zu finden.
