haiku #378: snowflakes gently fall / cold winter’s pale sakura / I envy the birds

Not as well aligned with the subject as I'd planned, but I took a slightly unusual approach. I recorded myself reading the haiku, then used that as my sole sound source (albeit significantly processed). The result is quite interesting, if not exactly as I'd intended.

This track was inspired by the following Haiku:
Snowflakes gently fall,
cold winter's pale sakura -
I envy the birds.

On concrete fields

Hypnosphere explores the surreal, fragmented realm of sleeplessness.
The theme centers around sleep or the haunting absence of it.
Each track captures the haze of exhaustion, the ebb and flow of hallucinations, and the desperate craving for rest that never comes.
It's an intimate journey through the mind's twilight, where the line between dream and waking life dissolves into an otherworldly soundscapes.

Lullabies for the Lost

Euryale cries for her sister, Medusa, turned to stone by her own gaze.

A song of stone

Little song for Kjmunro haiku:

"The harp player
moves under cover
market day."

"Mercat" is the word "Market" in my language. This is my market of my little island.

I’ve been meaning for ages now to make a track using only one single suite of plugins … and this week’s Disquiet Junto brief has finally inspired me into action! ALL of the sounds you hear in this track are courtesy of wonderful Sinevibes plugins, and it’s been really fun to explore more of what these genius little plugins can bring … with plenty more exploration to be had! @sinevibes

This track uses Torsion as the main synth source, with Diffusion also providing sounds from its wave shape modelling synth engine. As you can hear, I’ve gone slightly mad on the effects front! I’ve made use of Sinevibes’ Emission, Hexonator, Inertia, Luminance, Multitude, Cluster, Drift, Droplet, Octagon, Array, Zap, Albedo, Atom, and Dispersion …!

Enjoy! 😁🤗 It's been enjoyable, and there could easily have been a 20 minute version of this! 😂

UN GAUCHO – solo bass

A simple, heartfelt solo bass piece — part of a series of intimate instrumental moments I play live or record at home for fun.
Five-string bass (high C), light effect pedals — just melody, warmth, and a great instrument.

Thanks for listening!
