Shih-Lin Hung: Electroacoustic Etude“Pò”(迫), 06.24, 2024

“Exhaustion is the only form of gentleness I can manage when facing the storm."

”疲憊是我面對風暴時，唯一可以做到的一種溫柔。“

Electroacoustic Etude“Pò”(迫), 06.24, 2024

From inspiration to realisation is only a matter of minutes, sometimes.

This is one such instance, encompassing guitar --> looping --> layering --> getting rid of loads of that stuff and --> shifting the remainder back and forth until it seemed to fit.

Enjoy!

(Note: the tuning on this is C G C G B F)

HAIKU MUSIC CHALLENGE

Naviarhaiku 564

Fog clears away:
the waterfall shows up
bit by bit.
 
Undoubtedly one of the most important Japanese novelists in modern history, Natsume Sōseki began his career publishing haiku and renku poems in a number of newspapers and periodicals. Early in his career he met Masaoka Shiki, who encouraged him to become a writer and tutored him in the art of composing haiku.

Between 1900 and 1903 he studied at the UCL in London, but this proved to be quite a dramatic experience for the young Soseki. Despite this, when Soseki returned to Japan, he exploded into prolific writing activity.

Time

I imagined a walk in the woods, which starts out blissfully enough and then ends in darkness and a tangle of aggressive branches and unseen monsters. Hence the cheery sequence, all in C major, that starts off the track which then begins to break down, first with a bit of dissonance before being completely taken over by a low drone that takes the hapless walker into the dark lodge of their dreams. All this was done in Logic, using Arturia's "mallets" plug in and granular effects.

This is an experimental electronic music project performed and produced by Saif. He has been creating music since the age of 16.   with various instruments and methods – mainly focusing on playing guitar and using multi-track analogue equipment for recording and production. 

His approach to music is a daringly beautiful combination of atmospheric music with emphasis on rhythms, variety of tone and the layering of electronic textures over a more traditional approach. 
Saif describes his song writing method as being vertical "I add layers and subtract others over shifting and interlocking rhythmic parts. The main theme of the track is always there in one form or another. it's usually the first idea I start with. everything around it is a result of that first spark" 

Welcome to my “musical” diary…. A Sonic sketch book of feelings and impressions.
