Maybe a little more than half unusual…I love this one!

Naviar haiku challenge 582, details here: https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

Assembled using a combination of Voltage Modular and Bento, the noise synth from Giorgio Sancristoforo; https://www.giorgiosancristoforo.net (Bento is about 2/3 of the way down the list).

I started out with Bento, got it set up worked out which controls I wanted to manipulate the moved onto Voltage Modular and patched together the other elements I'd need. Although a bit of a fiddle, I'd assigned all my physical controls to Bento so had to control all the VM components with the mouse, everything was manipulated and recorder in a single live take.

Ōshima Ryōta was a Japanese poet of the Edo period. Some sources say he was a disciple of Yosa Buson, while others say his master was Hattori Ransetsu. He's mostly remembered for his essay “Bashō ku kai” 芭蕉句解 ('Study of Bashō's haiku') published in 1759, a magnum opus of his studies and literary theories on Matsuo Bashō's work.

I dig around thε edges t0 uneΔrth non-mμ§ic musics — sliding into nσ!§ε, glitch, chΔnce, Δ$MR, and σther soundwσrlds that feel oddly familiar in their oddity …

✨👂 L!§†εn cΔrεfu!l¥ … 👀 εxplσrε dεεpl¥ … 🎵💫
