Through a world of sound
the only filter I have
my discerning ear

Naviar Haiku challenge 562, details here; https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge/

In a change from my usual live method this track was very much assembled. That said each synth element was improvised in conjunction with and added to the existing material as the track evolved. 

I started by taking a long ambient drone (Borrowed from another project), generated with Points And Lines* and processed it through the Free Ghost  Radio VST plugin from Quilcom to produce the short wave radio like sounds, details here: (it's near the end of the list): https://flowstoners.com/quilcom

Then in conjunction with that I assembled the field recordings that open the track. A bit of a mish-mash,

Circus Atmosphere,
brixton road, london, busy afternoon with voices, passing busses, traffic,
11 o' clock bells from the catania cathedral of st agatha, sicily.

With the opening set I then recorded the rhythmic pulses and sequences using a small virtual modular VCV Rack patch that I'd prepared earlier. With that done I went back and added the synth surf, separate VCV patch, synth wind, Bento* and random chirps and synth whales to swim in the synthetic sea, Creature From Then ID.*

A World of Sound - (Naviarhaiku - 562)

I'm primarily a visual artist both 2D and 3D, for the last decade I've operated almost exclusively in the digital 3D realm.   since the late 80s I've made periodic forays into the sonic world, MIDI sequencing, minimalism, musique concrète, found sounds  and improvisation. I am seldom happy with anything and seldom consider a piece finished.
