Very nice atmosphere and fits the thoughts of the words.  Nice, Jo!

listening back makes this even more poignant as an interlude:)

this is another song recorded on a mt50 4track cassette........ ........not sure why i cant reply as my comments arnt being saved, cheers for the listen


hey babe what you thinking
have you gone and made up your mind
why this ship's, just drifting
and there aint no land in sight

no bell tower in the distance
no moon to guide the way
it's hidden far behind the darkness
waiting for dawn, morning brings another day
waiting for dawn

so long, we been waiting
for the tide to turn the other way
heavy rain, wind was howling
ripped right through our sails

and what waits down below
is much to deep to say
try as we might we can't get it right like the dawn
morning brings another day
waiting for dawn

Waiting For Dawn

Digital Lair

Keep it in the Clothed

Keep it in the clothed

Mayan space gods part 4- stargate realignment.

That the powerful play goes on..and you may contribute a verse...what will your verse be?

Re-mixed by Tanisha

what will your verse be?

Ukulele and Vox and Synth...

Ivy has lost her voice
Ivy has lost her face
Ivy is losing her north
Ivy is losing her place

Deep in the rocks there
Opening clocks there
The water will flow over all

Ivy is losing her choice
Ivy has lost her faith
Ivy is losing her birth

Deep in the rocks there
Opening clocks there
The water will flow over all

Opening Clocks

Seems like this is the second track of a jazz album with my humble sax on Hendrik's relaxed composition. Cheers @cosmic-ratzzz !

David D has been doing some legacy production for a close friend. David envisioned this head-to-toe tattooed woman as a feature in a traveling circus or carnival, but in her private life and dreams wanting to be a younger normal person, not an object of scorn or bewilderment. 

He asked me if I had any ideas about incorporating some of Clara's lovely voice. And since the song is a very fun idea and deviates from the norms through this crushing mix of genres, of course I wanted to do what I could.
Hope you get a surprising and pleasant listen. ;)

the perennial art of bleaching
time supplies linnen to tuck
children in - nothing ever goes missing
but stains on a paper map

POETRY IS VITAL

This threshold space exists for those who feel like listening to some of my quite professional poetry embedded in rather amateurishly recorded but judiciously arranged sound, a modicum of purely acoustic work notwithstanding.  Fortunately, some other artists have also transformed the symbolic expression of my words into the tangible beauty of real songs and soundscapes - just listen to Sympoetic Ultrasounds: https://soundcloud.com/sonic-textures/sets/sympoetic-ultrasounds !

SOUND, SPACE AND TIME

Tend your listening senses gently. Even though my general approach welcomes and embraces lo-fi concepts like the precision of spontaneously occuring imprecisions, headphones worth their membranes are recommended - unless you like your sounds flat, mangled, battered and helpless. You don't, do you? Be kind to these soundscapes.

STRUCTURING IMPULSE

Due to the nature of "poetry soundscapes", your listening expectations regarding traditionally structured "songs", sonically purified "raw wildlife soundscapes", keyboard-laden "ambient recordings" or voice-centered "readings" might not be met. You will find some of those in my list of /likes/. "Noise" is a recurring structural element like any other. This is what this sounds like - within its own rights, limitations, tangents and interconnections. Sonic structures. Silent stretches. Poetry emerges from the gaps between the ruts, seeps in from the undergrowth, sweeps down.

CARVING, CHISELLING, KNEADING, MORPHING

A quick glance into my toolshed rests on Zoom recorders, Samplitude software and a dizzying array of diverse sonic machinery.

LARGE AND SMALL GIFTS

-----------------------------
Small Gifts

the less to remember, the more to listen
gifts from the ice age reverberate
a simple story, a forest, a coastline
entangled in silence, one starts to relate
---------------------------------------------

In case you have read up to this point, you might be a sonic creator yourself. May I ask you for a helping ear? Above, there is a tiny poem of mine that I do not understand how to translate into sound. If you do - please act on it. It is a matter of common decency, of course, to keep the title (Small Gifts) and to credit the lyrics to me (jo richter). And please do notify me of your version via a soundcloud message. One bewilderingly beautiful version crafted by mono-lux has already gone public, as well as an amazing version by cthonicist.  You'll find both in my playlist Sympoetic Ultrasounds. This is just a small gift, not a challenge - life already has more than enough of those on offer, doesn't it? Treat it this way.

POETRY IS VITAL
sound, space and time
structuring impulse
carving, chiselling, kneading, morphing
large and small gifts
poetry is vital

GENERAL POLICY regarding the use of LIKES, REPOSTS and FOLLOWS:
I like what I like and want to hear again.
I only repost what I've had a hand in creating.
I follow when I see directions or arrivals I like, not when followed (though I might peek in to get an idea of what your sounds are about). I have set myself a limit of accounts I follow not to be all too overwhelmed. Not following does therefore not mean I do not appreciate what you contribute to the enjoyments of soundcloud.
Do not expect other behaviour from me.
(jo richter)
