Lost In Thought

Moments of Reflection on a Lazy Day

This track is built around the sound of the wind shear produced by cracking open the door of my wood-burning heater.

Contribution to Naviar Haiku challenge 538:

Only the moon remains
floating in the memory upon
Kinokawa River

Challenge details here:https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

I made the river the central element and created the ambience using samples form Freesound then added generative drone elements in virtual modular using VCV Rack. I  let that run and played an improvised layer using a free Shakuhachi sample pack from Samplephonics: https://www.samplephonics.com/products?term=Shakuhachi  with added reverb.


Freesound samples used:

Ambiance_Brook_Calm_Stereo by Nox_Sound,
Water dripping down rocks at the edge of the dam in St Saturnin Les Apt, France by Raphael.Malf...,
water on rocks, calm, manitoulin by TRP
Mineiros Brasil selva - 3.12.17 - midnight frog chorus long by 
samwd,
frogpocalypse by spoonboysf.

Sillage

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.
