I had slightly conflicting ideas with this haiku. The poem and the picture are both beautiful and peaceful, but my thoughts went to Khaled Hosseini's "the Kite Runner", which is not so pretty, although beautifully written.

The speed of the Buchla Easel 5 step sequence is cv-controlled by the envelope generator, which has a slow attack, and thus increases the speed. The result is fed through the crunchy KOMA BBD delay, with its delay time randomly controlled by MakeNoise Wogglebug. Add to this delay and reverb from the Space Echo RE-201. This was recorded as one stereo track with plenty of realtime manipulations.

To introduce some softness I recorded an off-beat string arpeggio from the Quantum, with realtime manipulations of the arpeggiator, ADSR envelope and filter.

Last but not least, to bring it all together, I added a huge sound from the Moog, also played live throughout the composition.

Gear:
Buchla Easel
Waldorf Quantum
Moog One
Roland Space Echo RE-201
KOMA BD101
MakeNoise Wogglebug

Recorded in Logic Pro X with a Soundcraft 22MTK.

OneAmbient4 - The Last Kite Carries The Setting Sun In Its Wings (Naviarhaiku 320)

This weeks haiku inspired a study of film music, with concentration on the styles of Danny Elfman, Howard Shore, and Hans Zimmer.
