just like the sea....feels fluid and timeless in its character.....good use of multiple timbres and effects.....well don, roland!....and great on the Cafe Oto DEc 7 gig!!

Intriguing balance between serene and tense. The sounds are all bright, but the mood is 'edge of your seat' skittery. :)

Gives me images of an intensely particulate-filled windstorm on a long dead alien planet. Desolate and beautiful. :)

wondrous. could totally see this scoring a Jarmusch film.

I had the pleasure of making this track for the Naviar Haiku challenge for the haiku below.

This was recorded in preparation for the https://soundcloud.com/naviar-records curated Naviar Haiku Fest at Cafe Oto, London, on 7 December.
More details here: https://www.cafeoto.co.uk/events/naviar-haiku-fest/

Music inspired by this haiku:

The spring sea:
all day long
undulating, undulating.

One of the four great haiku masters, Yosa Buson studied both Japanese and Chinese poetry. He was also an accomplished painter, and most of his poems were accompanied by paintings, resulting in a more diverse and individual set of works than the one by his main historical influence, Basho.

Happy New Year everybody!

This is a live recording in preparation for my recent gig at Cafe Oto, unedited.

Just starting the journey somewhere, working things out as I go along.

Enjoy!

This is the closing track off of "Hyphae", a collection of tracks I made with fellow ambient guitarist Wodwo (Ray Robinson -- https://soundcloud.com/user-364196783-552705040). 

It all started with discovering each other’s work on Soundcloud and grew into a lively exchange of ideas and sketches. With both being on a quest to take the less obvious sonic route, always searching for the uncommon guitar sound, and their fondness for spacious and slightly unsettling ambient compositions, the sessions were kickstarted with the appropriately titled "Germ", which gestated into what became the first completed track of this long-distance collaboration between Munich and Derby. 

The title for the second track, "Hyphae" came to mind after reading Merlin Sheldrake’s fascinating “Entangled Life”. It seems apt to draw parallels between the massive mycorrhizal fungi hyphae networks (the "Wood Wide Web") that connect different species of plants and transport substances and information between them, and the to and fro of abstract layers of sonic matter that passed between the two musicians. 

The collection closes with "Simulacrum", probing the terrain where a bright major key tonality coalesces with a bit-crushed low-end undercurrent. And despite what your ears might lead you to believe, no keyboards or synths were used in any of this music! 

Hyphae is also available from Wodwo's Bandcamp page: rayrobinson.bandcamp.com/album/hyphae
