haiku #340: All across the sky / A star has burned itself out / Above the cold sea

This week we celebrate the 500th Naviar Haiku weekly challenge. My first response to the Naviar Haiku challenge was on week 3. Naviar Haiku is my muse and I have submitted over 60 pieces in response to the challenge over the last 500 weeks. Thanks Marco, for building a great community around this idea!

Celebrating 500 Naviar Haiku

Primogenitor

Primogenitor (Naviarhaiku004 - New Radio)

Full of Dreams (Naviarhaiku008 - Empty Seashell)

Winter Ghosts (Naviarhaiku 009 - Winter Ghosts)

This piece was planned on the Haiku: "They encounter a cathedral of ice at the end of the world".  The seed of inspiration started with the thought of wind, cracking ice and what the inside of an ice cavern might sound like.
The composition is 4/4, 120 BPM, and in Cm.  There are 7 tracks of laser gun zaps, time stretched, reversed, chopped and screwed, mostly providing the wind-like sounds and some sub harmonics.  I used 3 tracks of Ice cracking Foley.  Everything is done in the box on a MacBook Pro, using Logic Pro X, Native Instruments Kontakt for singing bowls and the strings, Massive for bass, and Absynth for the melody and an FX track.  The large drum, cymbal roll, and sweep are from Quantum Leap Storm Drum 2.  The tuba, trombone section, and horn section are EastWest Hollywood Brass. I used Izotope Alloy 2 and Ozone 5 for mixing and mastering.

all across the sky  (naviarhaiku340)

Some reflection is painful and beautifully sad.

Cold Burning Reflection

Cold Burning Reflection (NaviarHaiku340)

I'm a composer, working from a 3' x 5' studio (some may call it a dinette) in a 5th wheel camper, while traveling the United States. I've been on the road for six years, so most of my recent work will have come from a different state (of mind and location) during my travels.

Music makes me feel better about everything. I don't know that I'm ever happier than when I am creating. I sometimes wonder if creativity isn't one of the primary keys to happiness. Do you ever feel better than when you say, "Look what I did."? This phrase magically conjures the purest sense of childlike joy.

Music works for every part of our lives. We all have music for when we are sad, happy, celebrating, meeting others, when we are alone, and even when we are lonely. Did a song come to mind as you read each of those situations? I remember the first song I ever heard on the radio, on my first bus ride to kindergarten. One of my favorite musical memories is playing in a band for steel beach on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz.

I love telling stories with music. Everybody loves John Coffey in the Green Mile, but Mr. Jingles should have a song commemorating his reaching and joining the circus at Mouseville. If you agree, join me for this and similar journeys. The music here is synthetic, but as real as you would choose to have it.

My music most often lands on Soundcloud first and is inspired by one of my favorite communities, Naviar Haiku:

I find writing to a Haiku prompt sufficiently limiting and exquisitely inspiring.
