My Naviar Haiku interpretations

This is a part of the Naviar Haiku Music challenge. Making music inspired by a haiku. In this case // afternoon heat // the heavenly dance of // cumulus clouds // by Hege A. Jakobsen.

Disquiet Junto Project 0604: Heaven’s Gate 

I used a video on YT as a live score. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNEjw1fMk-8&t=2550s
28:42
35:24

I divided the screen into 5 parts.
Each part is linked to an instrument channel.
Every time a cloud enters or leaves one of the 5 areas it activates a trigger/gate.

1)	Guzheng/Percussion kit
2)	Harp Harmonic - wood
3)	Prepared Kalimba
4) 	Percussion kit 2
5)	Contrabass col legno

As sound binder I used a loop generated by Reaktor (TG-8H Live by Rick Scott)

The track is a very mechanical walk, created by generative sequencers. The sounds, as in recent times, are percussive / acoustic.
Ergo very short sound envelope in order not to saturate ears and acoustic field.

Thank you for your time.

60bpmb • G# /  Ab

A dubby modular type composition using a Dannysound En-129 TZFM VCO as the a mid-freq synth voice, sequenced/performed by the Moog Grandmother arpeggiator. There were some filter pings from Serge Variable Q VCF as a rhythmic element.

Then I stumbled into a strangely interesting formant-y bass sound by manipulating Ableton's Warp settings and using M4L 'Envelope Midi' to shape the filter controlling it. The drums are one-hits sampled from modular and then resampled + rechopped using Twisted Wave and Ableton, and programmed with Drum Rack.

Transient Melter • 60bpm [Disquiet 0609]

Moonlight Blessing The Temple

Something I've been meaning to do is explore the (electric) upright bass, which has hardly been used over the years it's been in the house. A disquiet YouTube video is also well overdue and I have also been meaning to experiment with a bottleneck on bass ... So, this is a triple whammy of stuff I've been wanting to get around to ...

This is in response to the wonderful naviarhaiku series from Naviar Records in the UK. this is challenge 511, I did the first 52 the first year and occassionally through the years to show my support of collaboration. Starting to be back into it now and enjoying it. Hope you do as well, it is emoting what the haiku says, I hope.
