This work combined recording of acoustic instruments (violoncello and violin), synthesizer outputs and environmental sounds. My approach here is very close to anecdotal music: the sound sources became unimportant; they are merged together in a new context musically. The sounds left their original environments and meet in an unknown space.

Departure

Natural Architecture moves the Frond sound into more rich and rhythmic territory than Frond's previous work. This piece still employs field recordings, home made textures and the idiosyncratic slow reveal, but really lets the synth do the talking. This tracks celebrates the inspiration that remote natural environments have on the human experience.

They met at the shores of the Licca. Oberlin came from the north, via
Augusta Vindelicorum, Xu from the south via Tridentum. Like travellers
of old on the Via Raetia just with the exception that their luggage
contained some electronic devices, Xu brought a couple of analog
synthesizers and some looper and fx pedals with him, Oberlin had a 9HE
Eurorack together with his sleeping bag on his back and a guitar under
the arm. Nights were quiet, you could hear the river flow and some
nightbirds from the trees. The two travellers did not want to disturb
the silence too much; instead they tried to take up the atmosphere
around them and to resonate it with their electronic and musical means.
So here you can listen to the musical diary of their time spent together
on this ancient roman street... and when the two parted, they knew it
was not forever. They would continue their journey sometime somewhere.

Xu & Oberlin would like to thank Andrea Porcu very much for his support
and for giving them a home on his beautiful label.

This is a serendipitous sketch that arose from preparing for an upcoming live concert with my friend, composer and video artist Robert Coburn.  I did a free improv by looping my small Buchla system and Robert created a video sketch -- the music and video crossed in the email and I merely laid in the music to his video. You can see/hear those results here: http://vimeo.com/57860736

Thanks for stopping by - please enjoy what you hear! 🤗 Any time you want to look as well as listen, head over to the YouTube channel ...

Apparently, the ‘hai’ in ‘haiku’ translates to ‘joke’, ‘fun’, or ‘unusual’, which is part of the inspiration for the odd name of this venture; an evolving project nurtured by Darren Bourne, in collaboration with countless others, past and present. The ongoing obsessions of halF unusuaL are improvisation, chance and the music / non-music boundary, with the aim of (impossibly) creating sound worlds never heard before ... Thank you so much for your support 🥰
