Naviar Haiku 020

This is my first time submitting a piece. The sound quality is often times very poor, due to making a decision to incorporate a low-quality mp3 in with the mix, and do an awful lot of pitch/tempo manipulations with this, a recording of cello and solo guitar recording. Also used a tiny bit of sound from the Disquiet Junto-0122 project. A bunch of samples eating one another.

Naviarhaiku 020 - Voyage not over

Made for the Naviar Haiku Group   { http://soundcloud.com/groups/naviar-laboratory/info } 

This week's haiku = <i>Voyage not over; 
                                     traveler’s forgotten shame
                                     under the night sky </i>

This reminded me of a track I'd been working on and put aside which evoked the story of The Wander, Eardstapa (an Old English poem). Possibly a long bow to draw, but here's the result anyway. As I recall, the original sample was a fragment of Gregorian chant.

<b>The Wanderer conveys the meditations of a solitary exile on his past happiness as a member of his lord's band of retainers, his present hardships and the values of forbearance and faith in the heavenly Lord. The warrior is identified as Eardstapa, usually translated as "wanderer", who roams the cold seas and walks "paths of exile".</b>
