Little song for Fusae Fubasami haiku:
"Reminding me not to forget
a toad goes out
to the verdant world."

To the verdant toad (naviarhaiku615)

The Legal Birth Act

Little improvised song for Tanaka Hiroaki haiku:"
Whenever we meet
it’s raining
green walnuts"

We meet (naviarhaiku616)

First there was a common funky beat for 2 minutes or so. Then there was a bass played during those 2 minutes in a complete improv mood. Then a nylon guitar came breaking time. Then a steel guitar came bending time. Then some djembes, shakers and seeds came defying the beat and eliminating it.

In the spirit of mixing traditional instruments with free jazz approach, a simple though "we are lost in time" emerges.



Lost in time

PRODOMO

This week's haiku is by Takarai Kikaku:
Springtime in Edo, / Not a day passes without / A temple bell sold

I created a slowly drifting patch on the modular, using multiple clocks that gradually speed up and slow down. The sequences driven by these clocks interlock, such that the whole feels integrated. Over this, I ad libbed on BS2, JP-8080, and nord piano, with lots of effects (reverb and delays)

Not A Day Passes (naviarhaiku191)

This will be my place for Naviar Haiku and Disquiet Junto entries.

I make electronic ambient and drone music using modular synthesis to explore themes of nature, space, isolation, man/machine interaction, and the borders of the sleep/wake cycle.
