naviarhaiku479 – Summer night

Sotto la coltre verde della foresta esiste un`incessante attività della natura. Non solo statici e rassicuranti droni sonori, ma soprattutto impulsi ritmici e percussivi.
Under the green blanket of the forest there is an incessant activity of nature. Not only static and reassuring sound drones, but above all rhythmic and percussive impulses.

Ants Bees And Fleas (naviarhaiku479)

Early morning,
One star remaining,
It’s a good day too.

A wandering poet and ascetic Zen priest, Santōka was a disciple of Ogiwara Seisensui, one of the first poets to discard the traditional use of the 5-7-5 structure in haiku.

Santōka’s poetry emphasizes the necessity of sabi (solitude) in order to achieve spiritual enlightenment and serenity.

It’s A Good Day Too (naviarhaiku492)

Naviarhaiku 497

I cancelli e le porte sono aperte o sempre chiuse?
Se il portone si chiude sei dentro o sei fuori?
E sei sicuro che, se il tempio dorme, tutto sia perfettamente immobile, fermo e in silenzio?
Non ti senti in trappola, dove il sonno diventa incubo?
Lo vedi adesso il nemico?

"Ed un giorno mi disse
Entra ti aspetterò
Ma il nemico da sempre si cattura così
Apri bene la porta
Fallo entrare da te
Lei l'ha fatto settembre
Lei l'ha fatto con me"

Alberto Fortis  Settembre   1981



Are the gates and doors open or always closed?
If the gate closes are you in or are you out?
And are you sure that, if the temple sleeps, everything is perfectly still, static and silent?
Don't you feel trapped, where sleep becomes nightmare?
Do you see the enemy now?

"And one day she told me
Come in, I'll wait for you
But the enemy has always been caught like this
Open the door well
Let him in for you
She did it September
She did it with me"

Alberto Fortis "September" 1981

Settembre - The Gate Shuts (naviarhaiku497)

This track is meant to make the listener feel floating - like being in love. Of course there are also moments of uncertainty and confusion...
Being on cloud number nine translates to être sur un petit nuage - this explains the title.

Heaven’s Gate (disquiet0604)

Uê: Quartet for Clarinet-Guitar-Harp-Bassclarinet

Something I've been meaning to do is explore the (electric) upright bass, which has hardly been used over the years it's been in the house. A disquiet YouTube video is also well overdue and I have also been meaning to experiment with a bottleneck on bass ... So, this is a triple whammy of stuff I've been wanting to get around to ...

This track was created for the Disquiet Junto project 0618 (details see below): A 50 year old local newspaper-article was to be read, accompanied by music.
I found an article from 28th October 1973 from the "Seckenheimer Bote" (Seckenheim is 5 km away from where I live). It is available here
https://druckschriften-digital.marchivum.de/zd/periodical/zoom/510335.
The article announced a concert of Zarah Leander in Seckenheim, as part of the farewell tour of the then 66 year old Swedish singer and actress.
Zarah Leander is still known for her song "Ich weiss, es wird einmal ein Wunder geschehen" (https://soundcloud.com/zarah-leander-official/ich-weiss-es-wird-212274359) from 1942. This influenced the choice of music for this track.

Zarah (Disquiet0618)

Hello everyone! here we have a brand new release, inspired by the seen of the movie: Inception (Christopher Nolan_2010).
it influenced me much.
a very beautiful and complex movie.
I working on this music for a six month about
the most complex (and long) musical project I ever do 'till now
with his 41 track and 7.30 duration.
My friend Paolo Caputo offer me his collaboration to do something on his Hank drum and I'm very grateful to him for his approach that gives to the piece an even more dreamlike atmosphere..
Many thanks to Him and his life partner Chiara Pepe for the pic.

Chiara is a fantastic painter, and Paolo an excellent musician

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 🥰
