Saitō Sanki (1900 – 1962) was a dentist who discovered his passion for haiku poetry in his mid-thirties, when his colleagues at the hospital in Soto Kanda convinced him to write a haiku for a collection. Later, he became one of the most important exponents of wartime haiku: he was imprisoned in 1940 during the government’s World War II persecution of controversial artists, and was officially forbidden to write until the end of the war.

Fishbones (NaviarHaiku617)

With these miniatures, as they keep getting smaller, the focus becomes increasingly on the detail. While the imprecise timings of each piano note (a simulated grand on Logic Pro) are kept, but the volume of individual notes are adjusted to remove the harsh. A faint synth string enters and fits in, faithfully keeping the unconnected series of notes imagined separate to the repeated piano motif, and the foley birdsong completes "a garden".

This was written during the weekly @naviar-records regular Saturday morning quiet session where we gather on Dischord in response to this week's haiku challenge. A curious poem this one, here's the information on that:

“Don’t pick it!”
then picks and gives to me
a garden plum

Tan Taigi was a haiku poet of the Edo period. He was a wanderer for most of his life and admired by Yosa Buson for his ability to transcend his eclectic and unconventional lifestyle with sublime poetry.

Sorting through many hours of playing stolen in the cracks of an extraordinarily busy winter and spring, many of these pieces were gifts of the wee small hours. Absolutely loving new plugins from Acustica Audio! This features their Fairchild 670 and Manley Massive Passive incarnations and they have stunning depth and tone. CPU hogs to be sure but fantastic new tools!

Squidwerks aka Greg Heimbecker is a Northern Colorado based recording engineer, sometimes saxophonist & longtime fan of music across many genres. I have a particular soft spot for ambient music in the tradition of the "great bald one" Brian Eno. As my SoundCloud develops there will be collections of my engineering efforts as well as a section of ambient music composed and performed by myself and a few of my close friends over the past 30 years or so...(be sure to check out https://soundcloud.com/nine-horse-johnson!) enjoy!
