Low key chill ambient instrumental pieces I’ve created/produced/composed/sculpted/etched for the Naviar Haiku weekly challenge.

“Natural Tendencies”

This is a totally throw away able track. just some riffs that never quite came together correctly. This is mostly for keeping my Soundcloud active rather then posting what I'm actually working on. I'm deep in the labs mixing and recording vocals for the Debut EP coming this spring.

Au Bord De La Nuit (11/2023)

We were once children.

Written 1978, another of my older songs I am trying to get off the pages of my notebooks. Here, especially in the bridge I am having trouble with the melody/chords but after a little more work on it, I expect to rewrite and re-record and then re-load the corrected track. 
I am choosing this way as there are many songs I hope to post here with more detail (melody/chords) than simply the lyrics from a notebook page.

Cry Your Little Heart Out (ukulele demo)

Memories can twist over time, influenced by new experiences and emotions, leading to different interpretations. This malleability can cause frustration when accuracy is essential, as recollections may vary significantly, even within the same individual, creating a complex interplay between memory and reality.

Twisted Memories

A distant mountain
Seen in the sunlight:
A desolate field

out of my dreams
the distant croaking
green frogs

Croaking Green Frogs

Croaking Green Frogs - (naviarhaiku544)

violin bass clarinet and undercurrent omnisphere patch/ forebodingness abounds

forebodingsssss

Some silences are active: they breathe, they change, they remember. In the void beyond meaning, thoughts fluctuate without sequence, and identity dissolves in waves of colorless rhythm. The self stops, and what remains is a pulse that belongs to no one. Faces bloom in fiction, and love forgets how to undulate. Even the future casts shadows here.

Flicker in a Sentence

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known

James is a multi-instrumentalist creator of music as well as a contemporary artist. He plays stringed instruments (guitars, cello, ukulele, bass, etc.) and uses a midi controller for any instruments he doesn't have access to; such as a timpani or a glockenspiel.

James creates music that is inspired by the pure love and joy of making music. The style of music he creates varies from piece to piece. He will go from songs that are accompanied by guitar or ukulele to full arrangements of a traditional North American band to orchestral scores that you could easily hear backing a film or video. 

By browsing his music you're likely to come across traditional pieces of music sounding as old as time and other pieces sounding as new as yesterday's jingle. 

Instruments inspire him to make new sounds come together to form music and combining old and new sounds is something he very much enjoys exploring.

While music and sounds are a big part of James' personality so is making art, graphics, and videos. James has worked professionally as a technical illustrator/graphics specialist since 1991. So James almost always creates art specifically for each piece of music he puts out into the world. The art may or may not be directly related to the piece of music in context but it will definitely give you another perspective on how the music has inspired him or makes him feel.

To learn more about James and/or see his art seek him out on Instagram.com and YouTube.com; he’s easy to find if you spell his name correctly.  A pseudonym also being used by James is Mildred Stain.

If you are interested in collaborating in any way, contact him!
