haiku #515: Last bloom before autumn / Stares back at me with a smile / My younger brother

story
**On a silent moonlit night, the pure white moonlight reflects off the water, creating a mystical scene.**  
As the melody of a piano flows, along with its notes, the figures of cat ninjas can be seen darting across ancient rooftops and through swaying bamboo groves. Their movements are flawless, and occasionally, eyes illuminated by the moonlight hint at their next move.

STORY

Their destination is a massive structure resembling an ancient temple. From within this structure, futuristic blue lights and electronic sounds can be heard. Here lies an AI that holds sway over the fates of many.

As they approach the temple, a glitch-like noise resonates, and in an instant, the entire temple is enveloped in a protective barrier of light. Faced with this barrier, the cat ninjas momentarily seem lost.

Suddenly, from a distant village, a voice echoes, "Are you ready?" Faces from the village appear in the out-of-focus background, their voices laden with hope and anxiety.

Among the ninjas, one steps forward. From beneath his fur, wires and cables resembling that of a cyborg emerge. He connects these to the core of the AI and, in a flash, deciphers the information, disabling the protective barrier.

Taking a deep breath, he smiles at his comrades and says, "Everyone, I hope you're not too shocked, but truth be told, I'm an AI." In that moment, under the moonlight, a touching scene unfolds as their bond deepens

AI Ninja

Orchestral soundscape.

I've been "testing" some gorgeous string orchestra libraries I have because next week I have a job to do with it, mostly quiet orchestral pads and soft beds. So This junto comes at the right time to try that, I played some quiet episodes combining different sample libraries and different convolutions reverbs and some Valhalla Supermassive.
The only real instrument I played is the bowed double bass, triple-tracked.
I tried to leave some pure silence a couple of time, filling it with pure reverb and resonances, I'm not sure the silent parts are what I was aiming for, I may rework this during the week end, but this is the result of this morning's work (Friday October the 20th)

My younger brother

Haiku by: John Wright  https://soundcloud.com/thgirwnhoj

About this interpretation: 

My 'younger brother' here is my (much) younger self in the early 1980s, pictured here, when I proudly owned an Octave Cat monosynth and a 4-track portastudio to make music with. What you hear is pre-planned; each part played by hand, multitracked, and bounced down to extend beyond the 4 cassette tracks available. So, for example, drums were recorded part by part, as was each note of each chord, each sound created from scratch - with no presets ... So, please be kind to my 'younger brother' before judging TOO harshly! ;-)

This is an original mixdown to stereo cassette, no editing or remixing - including the terrible 'drum break'! - so it couldn't be more authentic! Enjoy! 😜
