Part2 - excerpt from the album Of the Waters / A Apelor

I take the same old, bumpy bus home from work every day. No matter how loud I turn up the music on my headphones, the old vehicle's creaking and creaking can always be heard. So one of my trips home, I recorded and layered in its creaking so you can hear it too. :D

Little song for Mizuhara Shuoshi haiku:
"Star above the peak -
a silk worm-breeding village
silently asleep."

Silk Peak (naviarhaiku613)

“Glissando” – an abstract orchestral–ambient soundscape with a cinematic edge.  
Blending real instruments and string samples, it evokes the mood of a modern trailer soundtrack: immersive, expansive, and atmospheric.

Asleep [Naviar Haiku # 613]

Made for the haiku challenge 613 of Naviar records.

Star above the peak - a silk worm-breeding village silently asleep

by: Mizuhara Shuoshi

Mizuhara Shuoshi was a 20th century Japanese poet. Shuoshi rebelled against the principles of emotional detachment in haiku, which he thought limited his ability to emotionally express himself through poetry: he started a magazine called Staggerbush which focused on a more romantic, lyrical type of haiku.
