Created in response to:

caged bird
glaring with envious eyes
at butterflies!

Naviar haiku challenge 594, details here  https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

Performed and mixed in a single live improvisation** from elements assembled in virtual modular using Voltage Modular from Cherry Audio. Other than mastering no additional effects were used.

For the caged canary I edited together the parts I liked from a set of samples I sourced from Freedsound:

     CanaryArtie-3.wav -- https://freesound.org/s/85403/ 
     CanaryArtie-1.wav -- https://freesound.org/s/85401/
     CanaryArtie-2.wav -- https://freesound.org/s/85402/ 
     CanaryArtie-4.wav -- https://freesound.org/s/85404/

This was randomised and extended using the Granular Synth module from Adroit Synthesis. After the first appearance of the "Butterflies" this song is distorted with envy using The Zeit Voltage-Controlled Delay Line and associated Time Stream Integrator both from Dome Music Technologies'  Zeit Year 50 Collection.

**  Having used probabilistic switching (DMT Bernoulli), to decide the direction of the Butterflies, which worked fine while developing the patch, during the recording the virtual coin came up Heads seven times in a row :) So yes I cheated and reversed the left/right channels on a couple of them.

I am still looking, trying and experimenting, I really like electronic ambient for many years, but it only works as a live percussionist. In short, nothing is black or white:)
In today's hectic world I need quiet sounds and the vast majority of songs created at night, so are my compositions such as they are.

My tracks is based on the absolute freedom of the use of sound. Arises as if I painted a picture. In the head is the base, and then adding the details here and there.
As well as if I were his music told the story.

I use: Ableton-Live-Suite with Partnerinstrumets, Kontakt Player + virtual instrumentzs,NI-Machine, Ableton Push, Acces Virus TI Snow, Waldorf Blofeld, AKAI MPK 49, Korg Microkorg XL+,KORG Kaossilator,Kaosspad,KORG Wavedrum, Roland HPD 20, nord lead A1 r, Yamaha mx49, Roland Edirol for Fieldrecordings - and various live percussion.(Kalimba, frame drum, tombak, koshi etc)

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.

Making music is about being surprised.
