Naviar Broadcast #337 - I write, erase, rewrite – Wednesday 18th September 2024

Created in response to:

Year's end,
all corners
of this floating world, swept.

Naviar Haiku challenge 573, challenge details here: https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

The haiku more or less said it all for this one, so yes a bit obvious but had to be done. I knew I was going to start and end with collages of samples so created sequenced elements and some semi-random pings in virtual modular using VCV Rack. As usual I set up multi-track recording and physical controls then recorded a live one take improvisation. 

I then added the sampled elements, initially the New Year midnight chimes, these are my own recording. The bell as recorded didn't fit the final mis so I pitched it down a couple of semitones.

All the other samples are from Freesound:
