haiku #591: steady spring rains... / both dream and reality / Mount Yoshino!

it's a first draft of the piece certainly worth investigating the sonic possibilities it offers. 
the synth always behaves differently in re-proposing the sequence, depending on the envelope phase in which it is found, I am fascinated by it, I have been looking for a sound like this for a long time.
I find it very meditative, so much so that it reminded me of seeing the splendid paintings of the painter Aldo Mondino, more than twenty years ago, in an exhibition at Villa delle Rose in Bologna. 
I immediately fell in love with those fantastic paintings. 
On the cover a detail of the work: Master of Fantasmagorie.

Mount Yoshino! 

Ōshima Ryōta was a Japanese poet of the Edo period. Some sources say he was a disciple of Yosa Buson, while others say his master was Hattori Ransetsu. He's mostly remembered for his essay “Bashō ku kai” 芭蕉句解 ('Study of Bashō's haiku') published in 1759, a magnum opus of his studies and literary theories on Matsuo Bashō's work.

The rain field recording felt inevitable as a starting point—once in place, the chimes followed naturally. Two measures of gentle drones and a few understated piano notes later, and the piece settled into a safe haven. Nothing more felt necessary.

Here's my musical resonance to this week's haiku from @naviar-records.

Thanks to Marco Sebastiano Alessi from Naviar records.

The forest (naviarhaiku592)

Sound Ripples is a sound installation by Marco Sebastiano Alessi, created for the Sapporo Tenjinyama Art Studio. Inspired by the cultural legacy of the Ainu people, Alessi and members of the online music community Naviar Records reflected on the roots of their own local traditions, and created sounds inspired by the landscapes and stories of their respective environments.
Combining field recordings from across Japan, ambient compositions by Naviar Records’ community, and sounds captured during Alessi’s time in Sapporo, this installation invites listeners to experience sound as a vessel of memory, transmission, and transformation.
This immersive experience aims to highlight the importance of music as a connector that brings cultures into dialogue: a medium that transcends space and time to build bridges between distant communities.

Blue Mounds

J'air repris ici dans une toute nouvelle version un de mes premiers morceaux créés au moment où je m'étais acheté, il y a maintenant déjà quelques années, mon piano numérique (Roland FP30) qui m'enchantait à lui tout seul par ses sonorités nouvelles pour moi. Il perd malheureusement beaucoup ici de sa sonorité, car je ne peux le brancher à ma carte audio que par sa sortie casque. De cette première version et de son arrangement d'époque j'ai cependant conservé ici  la partie centrale. J'espère que vous apprécierez son ambiance très rêveuse
