naviarhaiku402 – 
How cool cut hay smells
when carried through the farm gate
as the sun comes up

Nozawa Bonchō was a haikai poet and disciple of Basho who worked as a doctor in Kyoto. Later in life Bonchō distanced himself from Basho’s school and was imprisoned for a crime. He died in 1714.

For this track I made heavy use of Spitfire Audio's LABS Instruments: Soft Piano, Tape Orchestra Strings Flautando and Peel Guitar Ensemble. The field recordings in the background are from LABS' magnificent Tundra Atmos.

On the spring equinox
Clouds wander about
The entrance of a mountain temple.

Darkness,
Wet with
The sound of the waves

A wandering poet and ascetic Zen priest, Santōka was a disciple of Ogiwara Seisensui, one of the first poets to discard the traditional use of the 5-7-5 structure in haiku.

Santōka’s poetry emphasizes the necessity of sabi (solitude) in order to achieve spiritual enlightenment and serenity.

Klang Wellt

Klang Wellt (naviarhaiku409)

Hello, this is a composition of some water recordings that I did earlier this year. They came in well for this haiku !
Submission for https://www.naviarrecords.com/about/naviar-haiku/

The water recordings begin calmly, then become more intense, but then breathing becomes almost like the water, the same movement. Deeply, profoundly, the air gets surrounded by deep water. As if meditation transforms the lungs of thos of an ancient dragon.
