Composition inspired by haiku by Shubham Dasgupta

in dark autumn nights
dew and the new bamboo shoots
reaching out to moon

Shubham Dasgupta, hailing from the picturesque city of Guwahati, India, introduces himself as a student of law. However, his true passion lies in his enchanting affair with words and the mesmerizing world of poetry. With an innate ability to discover beauty in the most ordinary aspects of life, he finds solace in daydreaming. Mastering the art of crafting Haiku poems on a daily basis, he effortlessly weaves emotions into syllables, creating captivating pieces of art. Occasionally, he ventures into the realm of painting, giving life to his vivid imagination.

Bamboo Moon

Bamboo Moon - (naviarhaiku511)

Hi, lately I’ve been working a lot (for a professional assignment) on orchestral soundscapes, so my previous Soundcloud shares were done using sample libraries, a friend’s cello performance and my own upright basses (using my bow)

This one, recorded yesterday and edited and finished today (Friday the 27th Oct 2023 is just me and my multitracked bowed bass , to achieve a noisy, creepy tone I didn’t use any rosin on the bow, so i could get some nasty tones bowing very hard and all around the strings. It was fun, just improvising one track on top of the previous and playing around some cathedral convolution reverbs, a Lexicon Hall at 18 seconds and one instance of the great Valhalla Supermassive (always useful for this stuff, with the right settings it transforms a noisy harmonic into a gorgeous sustained pad )

This one’s dedicated to William Burroughs and is called Rotten Ectoplasm.
Happy Halloween to everybody.
