#4196 92.50% 340 left): Jun. 10, 2025: And softly make a rosy peace (again, William Butler Yeats from May 22, 2025) 

So gently does the mind risk forgetting to embrace the rosy peace of dawn.

In “and softly make a rosy peace,” Chair House blends into the morning’s pale light, painting tranquility in soft sonic hues. A dewy, lingering touch evokes the scent of petals, kindling a quiet celebration within. On the drizzly dawn of 250518, this improvisation strikes the perfect balance of calm and tender nostalgia.

Subway No2

Summer sky

Created as a response to:

insect tremolo
soberingly cools the heat
of farmland roads

Naviar haiku challenge 603, details here: https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

Created using Voltage Modular and a lot of crickets from freesound. 

The synth elements are quite minimal and all driven semi-randomly, there's a fair amount of subtle random modulation built into each element so the final track, while a live take was mostly a mix with only a few other controls.

All the cricket samples were CC0, I'll add attribution and links when I work out which ones I actually used. :)
