haiku #543: rain on the cherry blossoms / with bamboo in the mist - / so pale and green

Prophecies

An immersive soundscape, that merges field recordings with a track by Snow*Omen @snow_omen (Improvisation Nr. 9 for two guitars and voice). Field recordings: Westhafen (West harbour), Berlin. 
Except for the musical part and not in order of appearance: 
A freight train passes.
A small boat rattles against the mooring.
Scrap metal is transported from one scrap heap to another.
Trucks drive past.
A crane lifts containers. 
An annoying repetitive electronic signal starts and stops at some point. 
A rude dude asks me from a distance to switch off the camera that I don't have, as I record with my Zoom H2N.
Small waves splash against the harbor basin.
And there's wind...

All Sounds Snow*Omen & VSS; Mixing and production VSS; Image: site map of Westhafen, Friedrich Krause,  Berlin 1923 (coloring: VSS).

“…He had the world all to himself, that early summer morning. The dewy woodland, as he threaded it, was solitary and still: the green fields that succeeded the trees were his own to do as he liked with…”

Pale and Green - (naviarhaiku543)

Created in response to Naviar Haiku challenge 543:

so pale and green

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

A different approach for this one, no modular just audio samples and instrument and effect plugins. Mainly because I wanted to see what I could do with the Stochas probabilistic sequencer. https://stochas.org I also had some other effects and instruments that I wanted to give a proper outing.

All the samples are from here: https://www.luftrum.com/free-field-recordings  Some are from the Free pack but I bought the full library a few weeks ago but again hadn't used them in anything.

Vincenzo, aka El Wud, is an electronic musician from Naples, Italy.

A regular participant in the Naviar haiku music challenge, El Wud uses sound overlaps, causal collisions and cosmic echoes to create evocative soundscapes.

Naviar's Marco translated Vincenzo's haiku from Italian, and made some minor variations.

Reconditus (disquiet0668)

I'm primarily a visual artist both 2D and 3D, for the last decade I've operated almost exclusively in the digital 3D realm.   since the late 80s I've made periodic forays into the sonic world, MIDI sequencing, minimalism, musique concrète, found sounds  and improvisation. I am seldom happy with anything and seldom consider a piece finished.

Naviar is a music community and label. Through regular publications, open projects and events, we explore the connection between experimental music and traditional Japanese poetry.
