Yes! thunderous. And I thought MY track was epic...

A recording of Masai Mara(https://freesound.org/people/AugustSandberg/sounds/202874/) (wink to [Chris Watson's(https://chriswatsonreleases.bandcamp.com/track/river-mara-at-night)), downloaded from Freesound (thanks to [August Sandberg](https://freesound.org/people/AugustSandberg/)), is used as a "constant". Different filter and resonance configurations and tools (soundtoys' FilterFreaks, Phase Mistress; Lexicon PianoChords, FabFilter and Izotope EQs), with some time envelope graphical programming and LFOs, plus some massive reverbs, are applied on the ambiance, in order to create movement and sensations of unreality.

The Rift

Studio  E .

trommel faining

thunder :::: gibson guitar (layered and downtuned), china cymbals pushed through plate reverbs, garbled voices fed into guitar cab and amp simulators, layer upon layer of samples (hammer smashed pianos, metal shelves, video games, drum loops, synths), hi-hats playing the word "thunder" in morse code, a quiet 7/8 piano melody, programmed drums fed through pitch shifters and distortion plugins... and other stuff...

[naviarhaiku531] thunder

The first thunder
Is likely to shake
The tiered doll stand.

Like Santoka and Seisensui, Kawahigashi Hekigoto (1873-1937) was an important advocate of the free verse haiku.
Besides being a writer and critic of haiku, Hekigoto was a literary scholar, noh dancer, art critic, calligrapher, social commentator, and mountain climber.

Frozen Regard (naviarhaiku534)

Mbane

Only the river shines in the moonlight
And beyond the water an unknown tribe

This people used to care for you, through rain and thunder
And yet we came here to plunder 

Lighting campfires, makes a commotion
Tomorrow we’ll meet and define this space
Who’ll be the ruler of this place,

Inspired by Nikolai Gumilev
