haiku #385: moonbeams / like fishes – / swim over the river

... maybe so or maybe not

Ships(beat)

Improvisation on  ryūteki

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.

In My Head (Final Conversation With The Room Mix)

live from UZESTE

The main motif is a 5-beat phrase, counting the rest at the end; so it keeps turning around in 4/4 time.

I debated whether or not to scrap this one completely or just finish it, but I couldn't start anything else either, I was in such a rut. So, I took a couple of weeks off. It's hard to get out of a rut when you can barely get out of your house, but we went kayaking, and cooked some good meals and drank. a lot, a whole lot,  and I finally felt inspired enough to finish it. I've already started a new one so maybe the block has passed...

That's the first descant i've ever done in the outro, des CAN'T? more like des CAN, okay it's more of a des MAYBE...enough, I hate singing lol

You are everything to  me  
You loosened up the chains and set me free
Thank you for the love you’ve given me 
You are my destiny

I can see the magic in your smile
I’m sure that this is paradise
Slowly spinning out of time
Till I’m floating weightless in your eyes

It doesn’t have to feel this way
We don’t need the fireworks every day
Just holding hands can make me feel the same
I’m not ashamed to say

It’s the little things make it all worthwhile
Every day give me one more smile	
It’s a little bit of dancing on a Saturday night
A little bit of laughter when things don’t go right

the little things mean the most to me
A lazy day is all I need
A little bit of tenderness to ease the pain
A little bit of love to chase the blues away my baby

Look at all the ways our world has changed
Everything around us is so strange
But I would go through all of this again
For you my love and my best friend…

Welcome to halF unusuaL, an evolving space inspired by play in the spirit of ‘hai’ (meaning “fun” or “unusual” in the word haiku). Here, improvisation connects the unexpected, mining the boundary between music and non-music to shape sound worlds that feel oddly familiar in their oddity. Listen freely, explore deeply, and for the sounds to live for your eyes as well as your ears, please stop by the YouTube channel. Thank you for joining this journey! Your support helps keep this afloat ... and is HUGELY appreciated 🥰

Naviar is a music community and label. Through regular publications, open projects and events, we explore the connection between experimental music and traditional Japanese poetry.
