If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku: http://haikuguy.com/issa/

Disquiet Junto Project 0635: ’Round the Bend
The Assignment: You’re in a duo, and your bandmate is a train.

I took a part from the long train recording and added different kinds of improvisations, following my intuition, using a MicroFreak thru Soma Cosmos (avoiding any rhythm) and some Landform. The maxim was to use the rhythm in order to ignore it as much as possible.

Thanks to the train sound here:

Easy Rain

Easy Rain_Naviarhaiku 530

The source material for this week's Disquiet Junto's prompt reminded me of a non-existent movie: A couple in a car stops at a railroad crossing in the middle of nowhere. The camera slowly zooms out of the vehicle through the window pane. You can only see her talking and get an idea of what she’s saying only by looking at his reactions. 

I tried to write a soundtrack for that moment (which would be too long for a regular movie). The gear: S&A Spectres, Teletone Ondine, Felt Instruments Nisko, and an old Gleetchlab 3.0 experiment from 14 years ago.

What She Said When They Stopped The Car [disquiet0635]

Recorded, mixed & mastered 23 Jun 2019, 02/03 Mar 2024 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa.

Instruments -
Ableton Live 12 beta, Operator and other native devices, iOS/iAbyssal, field recordings of train provided by Todd “toaster” Elliot.

Process notes -
From the original audio recording of a train by Todd Elliot - 
- I derived the melodic elements and drum bits with Live’s audio-to-midi features. 
- I further split, duplicated, stretched & gated the original shorter audio train recording - heard here as rhythmic bursts. 
- Looped a section of the original audio to form a very loose rhythm. 

I also added another rhythmic element using a segment of an iPhone recording I made on 23 Jun 2019 using the app iAbyssal.
