This was made for the disquiet junti 0642 with the assignment: Use carbonation to make a beat. I recorded the sound of opening some beer and soda bottles, pitched one of them down to create a kickdrum an dloded then all in Nysthi's QuadSimpler. In search of an appropriate melody, I borrowed the famous drinking song from Siegmund Romberg's operetta The Student Prince and converted it into 4/4 beat. And then added a bass.

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 🥰
