haiku #514: gale in the mountains – / watch how the fallen blossoms / carpet the water

I've been exploring scanned synthesis - and this is a glitchy little number using that approach to interpret the latest haiku from Naviar Records ... Enjoy!

gale in the mountains –
watch how the fallen blossoms
carpet the water

Gale In The Mountains   (Naviarhaiku 514 )

hello everyone,

i took one of my favourite lines from wallace stevens

"sad men made angels of the sun"

and converted it to morse code midi, which i then used to trigger the different parts of a sampled drum kit.

kick = steady beat

sad = hihats
men = snare
made = floor tom
angels = rack toms
of = ride cymbal
the = agogo
sun = finger cymbals

the drums slowly fade into a return track (shifter at -12st >> reverb >> distortion)

the cymbals slowly fade into another return track (arturia efx fragments) which then slowly bleeds back into the first return track

An electronic composition, sounds from various sources.

Left - To - Right (disquiet0619)

I seldom work like this: creating a charged “full steam” pattern and placing it at the end of a crescendo, then moving backwards removing stuff till there’s nothing left at the beginning. I did it with drum programs a lot, but also with repetitive stuff (pianos, guitars) à la Reich/Riley. I like to have an idea of my “tutti”, my maximum peak in density and intensity, then going there from zero.
This track, recorded today Friday November 10th 2023, started with a programmed drum beat (using for the first time in decades my good old Alesis D4 module that remained unplugged in my rack, just to fill a space)
To complete I added two tracks of a Matrix 12 synth and cello samples (noisy)
The patter is 16 beats long but never in 4x4 time signature, it does something like 7x8 + 6x8 + 3x8
The synths are in straight 4/4.
The weirdness of the drum patter becomes evident as we progress and more elements appear.

The photo is mine, I can’t recall what that is. Paris 2019, it says in the folder…

[disquiet0619] Ritm

From a simple start to a complex rhythm - this track slowly builds a complex beat from scratch - as suggested by the Disquiet Junto Project 0619.

There's no need for percussions to do this - the beat is mainly built with orchestral instruments, adding layer by layer, but electronic and other instruments also join in.

In my track https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/deconstructivism-explained the process runs backwards, starting with the complete, complex rhythm and removing layer by layer to deconstruct it.

Constructivism Explained  (Disquiet0619)

This was my initial entry for the Disquiet Junto 0619 contest. The prompt was to create a complex beat by successively accruing elements on top of one another.
A more elaborate version is in progress, as a follow-up to the first part of that contest.
