Georg (naviarhaiku405)

My plan was to make 2 drones representing Summer and Autumn. This was combined with a small sequencer looping to represent a rainbow. I felt like it was a bit thin so I added a 3rd bass drone section. It was made on a live stream so you can watch the end to end process here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1170647209 .

This track was inspired by the following Haiku:

Autumn Rainbow (naviarhaiku405)

I had a nice recording of an FM radio falling out of tune recorded outside on a Autumn morning with the rain failing off a tent. Its quite evocative so I took this and added some background music. I sent this recording into various channels and effects and with some nice synth sounds it felt like the classic era Aphex Twin Selected Ambient Works sound. So added some low key beats chugging away in a very 90s ambient house sort of way! 

The haiku and the sounds match in my mind.. the synths are the summer and the rainbows fading and the beats are the years progress and the hiss and static and rain are the damp days of Autumn.
