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.

I gaze into the seven spaces, and there is naught

naviarhaiku403:
On the spring equinox
Clouds wander about
The entrance of a mountain temple.

Disquiet Junto Project 0515: Talking Cure
The Assignment: Write music for a psychotherapist’s waiting room.

Step 1. Imagine that you are about to consult a therapist. You are sitting in the waiting room of his/her/their office.

Step 2. Picture some comfortable chairs, abstract artworks on the wall, and some large plants in the corners of the room. The perfect music for this moment is playing out of a high quality, vintage-looking speaker. You are ready for your appointment.

Step 3. Create a piece of music that you imagine hearing in this situation. The duration of the piece is up to you. If you are OK with your work potentially being excerpted, please license it with a CC license that permits derivative works (i.e., any CC license that does not include ND, “no derivative works”).

Oh, everyone wants a cheery Christmas song. John's character in A Letter to Santa has hit hard times, but hopefully we all remember to share the love in the spirit of the season. Perhaps. it's time for a little more Bach, love, and forgiveness.

Santa, Dear Santa i been bad
I've tried to be good
But that's such a drag
I know when it started, you see
Been nothing but trouble, with a capital T

They opened those dispensaries
Seems one, every hour
Each containing reems
Of the most delicate flower
Santa, the memory is fuzzy these days
The fog has lifted, but not the haze

Chorus
Santa, Dear Santa
Please forgive me
There's nothing under
My Christmas tree
But the dispensary's open
And they ship for free

Where was i, oh yeah
About all the chaos, you see
It's been one big party
Far out,
Look at the Christmas tree

In closing, Dear Santa
I am out of my bean
Take a left turn and hit the gas
You don't want no part of this scene 

Chorus

A Letter To Santa (lyrics: John Eagle)

A collection of tracks I made in the last couple of years that resonated with me, showcasing a more ambient and lyrical side of my project

It can be envisioned as the soundtrack of an imaginary video game, movie, or a meaningful experience about growth

Some of them had early incarnations in the exclusive mixtape I did a while ago for Ex Magazine: soundcloud.com/ex-magazine/ex002-zero-crossing-point-1

cover made using Midjourney and a bunch of product and fashion pictures as references
