Summer night
transforms to daybreak.
I count fleas.

This is my response to this week's @naviar-records Haiku prompt.

Sound of mountain
sound of ocean
everywhere spring rain.

Sôen Nakagawa was a key figure in the transmission of Zen Buddhism from Japan to the Western world. Author Sean Murphy, in his “One Bird, One Stone: 108 Contemporary Zen Stories”, tells us an interesting story about the Zen Buddhist master during his time in the U.S.:

“Soen loved to walk around New York City. He’d stare at the lighted skyscrapers, at their tops, he claimed he saw Buddha figures in the lights. “Look at the Buddha,” he’d point, “Shining Buddha!” He’d fill the sleeves of his robes with nuts and berries from Central Park or herbs growing in the sidewalk cracks, and add them to his bowl at the next meal. He loved the musical Fiddler on the Roof, and when asked a question about why some particular point of ceremony needed to be performed in a certain way, he might burst into song, responding “Tradition…!”

With https://soundcloud.com/mikey_a/tete-a-deux-disquiet0593, https://soundcloud.com/encym/tete-a-tete-disquiet0592 and https://soundcloud.com/andreas-kitzmann-27370936/disquiet0591.

All three source tracks loaded onto Radio Music, stepping between the first second and third iterations randomly. Processing in two parts, one steady pulsing gates, one slower envelopes into a granular processor. Some editing and ambience added in Live.

No one’s sure which way to go 
To make sure we don’t miss the show
Could be north it could be south 
With last nights flavors in your mouth 
You’ve gotta grab the final shout
And put your real self about 
So throw some vox at one o five 
Then darker shadows can arrive 

Speed down the yard with your handbrake turn 
Bang up the sounds let the baseline churn
Revel and roll in the ecstasy 
Then open the door lets your senses free

Go Rolling in the sonic well 
Let fiery purges leap from hell
Jump back in the frying pan 
And send a text out to the clan 
Psycho beats to make them vibe
Reminding that they’re still alive 
Pretty Floyd or Ugly Jo 
Become the local folk hero 

Speed down the yard with your handbrake turn 
Bang up the sounds let the baseline churn
Revel and roll in the ecstasy 
Then open the door lets your senses free

Then you get that sign up call 
So will you let your morals fall 
Make that million dollar vid
But who the fuck they tryna kid
Remember honest tunes you sang 
And finally get to join the gang 
Set you up so you can fail 
And pull the sting right out your tail

Speed down the yard with your handbrake turn 
Bang up the sounds let the baseline churn
Revel and roll in the ecstasy 
Then open the door lets your senses free

ONE O FIVE

🎧 Paracosm 3 [album]
🙌 Pueblo Vista
📼 https://pvmm.ffm.to/paracosm3

"Paracosm 3" is the most personal chapter yet in Pueblo Vista’s ongoing journey through sound and memory. Released on Paul’s wedding anniversary, the album serves as both an ode to the birth of his inner world and a reflection on the profound loss of his wife ~ the spark that gave rise to this paracosm. Spanning 15 tracks, including four with vocals, the record expands far beyond lofi conventions, weaving hip hop, drum’n’bass, breakbeat, and unexpected influences into a rich, emotional tapestry. Smooth atmospheres and cinematic textures balance with restless rhythms, creating a duality that mirrors grief and growth. Paul’s closest friend, @lampros_mak (aka Milo Maven), played a pivotal role in the instrumentalization, giving shape and depth where Paul’s limited instrumental skills left space for collaboration. The result is Pueblo Vista’s most ambitious and emotionally layered release to date ~ a deeply human album that drifts between pain, memory, and transcendence.
