haiku #590: dreadful the stream / without so much as a name! / early-summer rains

Recorded, mixed & mastered on 23 Apr 2025 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa. 

Synths & effects.

This original version of "Downstream Procrastination" was submitted as part of Naviar Haiku 590: Dreadful The Stream.

dreadful the stream
without so much as a name!
early-summer rains

by: Yosa Buson

One of the four great haiku masters, Yosa Buson studied both Japanese and Chinese poetry. He was also an accomplished painter, and most of his poems were accompanied by paintings, resulting in a more diverse and individual set of works than the one by his main historical influence, Basho.

Although everything was generated and controlled in Voltage Modular I tried something a little different, rather than recording audio I routed and recorded sequenced Midi data that was passed to external instruments, Speldosa and Slammer for the drums, both from Klevgrand.

There are also a couple of field recordings:

slightly faint
yet clear
the milky way

oshio Kiyosaki (1922-1999) was a Japanese haiku poet and scholar of Japanese literature. He published a biography of Kyoshi Takahama in 1966 and co-authored Kyoshi Monogatari, another study on the renowned haiku poet, in 1979.

The Milky Way (amanogawa, or "Heavenly River" in Japanese) is a kigo for Autumn, mainly because that's when the galaxy is most visible in Japan.

Granular Sampler Test  No 3

Dream your beautiful dream.

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.
