An Echo Calling Home

A track produced for the 600th Naviar Records Haiku Challenge; 7 days in which to write and record a piece in response to the haiku posted. The haiku, 'thinking of us, the sound of wind, among the pines' made me think of the 'us' as several voices carried in the wind through the forest, so I used solely voice samples for the track.

Yatsuka Ishihara (1919–1998) was a Japanese poet and co-founder of the journal Aki 秋 with Akira Matsuzawa. He also served as an advisor to the Modern Haiku Association (Gendai Haiku Kyōkai) and the Association of Haiku Poets (Haijin Kyōkai).

The "one sentence that in some manner describes your artistic practice", step two of this week's Disquiet Junto brief, is as follows:

I make music to explore sound and the boundary of what is considered ‘music’ … and I use chance so that, in turn, sound can explore me through the process, as well as, at best, anyone else who listens. 

Perhaps ironically, the SoundCloud algorithm doesn't consider this track 'music' enough to recommend to potentially interested listeners ... so it might actually be worth a listen! 😁😜

Great to be contributing to Musikfestival Bern again with this exploration!

Tōge Morita (1924-2013) was a Japanese teacher and poet from Osaka. In the early 50s, he started publishing his poems in the Katsuragi 葛城 magazine, later becoming its editor-in-chief and, in 1990, its editor.

Live improvisation - hardware synths. No AI but pure RHI

In what century?

This track was inspired by this week's Disquiet Junto project: The barcode of the softcover Penguin edition of Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking, Fast and Slow" was used as the timeline for the rhythm, and the track was created with this beat as inspiration.
The other elements followed, found through intuition or happy accidents.
The result is a far groovier track than I initially assumed.

I love listening to music. I love making music 

I love technology, but only as a means to an end when it comes to music making. 

I'm after music that has life not music that is perfectly constructed
