The Sloth - The Producers Corner Sample Challenge #225

Saitō Sanki (1900 – 1962) was a dentist who discovered his passion for haiku poetry in his mid-thirties, when his colleagues at the hospital in Soto Kanda convinced him to write a haiku for a collection. Later, he became one of the most important exponents of wartime haiku: he was imprisoned in 1940 during the government’s World War II persecution of controversial artists, and was officially forbidden to write until the end of the war.

This haiku is included in The Kobe Hotel, a collection that depicts the author’s wartime experiences in Kobe, the struggles of ordinary people to endure war, defeat and occupation.

Minimal Viable Product (MVP) is a development and commercialization practice in which a new concept is introduced to the market with basic features. The intention is to maximize the amount of learning, in order to assess product fertility, while minimizing the amount of resource investment.

The general template of an MVP consists of listing the key characteristics of the product that customers will deem essential, usually in the form of questions. These are then coupled with elements that can be designed and manufactured within aggressive time and cost guardrails. Subsequent iterations of the MVP render an offering of increasing maturity, ideally and hopefully, before it transforms the market for which it’s targeted.

Suss Müsik took an MVP approach to this week’s Junto project. The primary questions regarding viability might be interpreted as: to what extent do acoustic and electric guitar fragments, when pressurized under certain constraints, no longer render themselves as inherently musical? At what point do these fragments cease to offer acousmatic value to the listener? And to what extent would an audience be willing to subject themselves to that experience? 

The responses to these inquiries, as with all instances of MVP concept testing, are subject to input from a respective target audience. In this case, that audience is you. 

The piece is titled MVP v.1 and was recorded live to 8-track in February 2022. The image is a schematic overlay of an actual instrument prototype.

Major thanks to Saga Söderback for having come up with this project.

High on the ashes of light [naviarhaiku442]

Yesterday midnight, after I got the email , I dared to sing some tracks improvising harmonies in C major.
It was fun, I did some serious Melodyne, particularly on the first basic tracks (2 of them) then two more falsetto improvisations and a 5th track using pitch shift for some extreme lows.

The rest is 4 reverbs:
Valhalla Hypemassive
Lexicon Random Hall (@22 sec)
St Patrick cathedral impulse response
Some automated LFO  filter on a long Valhalla reverb

Created on the first hours of Friday July 1st 2022.
