naviar haiku

my entry for this week's naviar haiku:

yuki wa haretaru
kodomora no koe ni
hi ga ataru

snow stopped
in the voices of children
the sun shines

i used a variety of field recordings, including one by herbert boland (cc-by licensed)

my submission for naviar haiku 227:

morning coolness:
dewdrops swaying
in the spiderweb

see http://www.naviarrecords.com/2018/05/09/naviarhaiku227-morning-coolness/

i made it a drone in f, with the electric piano exploring the f lydian sharp 9 scale. made with kontakt in reaper, adding plenty of reverb and some tape saturation.

morning coolness [naviarhaiku 227]

after a hiatus due to computer problems, i am picking up my series of vcv rack experiments again, and combined today's patch with the naviar haiku challenge: http://www.naviarrecords.com/2018/05/16/naviarhaiku228-a-snail/

i started out making a simple patch that aims to be musically pleasing. i used the turing machine to generate notes, which are quantized into a mixolydian scale. this then triggers rings, the resonator, as our sound source.

i added a second channel for sound processing with clouds as granular delay and reverb. the patch also uses caudal as chaotic lfo for modulation.

the vcv rack output was then sent to reaper for some further processing, most importantly more reverb and shimmer.

Psychedelic Skies

my submission for this week's naviar haiku, written by kobayashi issa:

finally, a clear sky
yet no moon...
summer mountain

see http://www.naviarrecords.com/2018/05/23/naviarhaiku229-finally-a-clear-sky/

this composition was made with two kontakt instruments made with bamboo, and a liberal helping of reverb

my submission for this week's naviar haiku:

to the end of the field
all alone i go
autumn sky

http://www.naviarrecords.com/2018/05/30/naviarhaiku230-to-the-end-of-the-field/

made with a single row of modules, as a simple self-generative patch

Episodes of a Tunnel Ride

An exploration of three very interesting VCV Rack modules: Bidoo's TiARE and ForK, and Audible's Resonator.

day 35 of my 50 day challenge doing vcv rack experiments is also my submission for naviar haiku week 234:

when the cicadas cease
what coolness!
the voice of the pines

http://www.naviarrecords.com/2018/06/27/naviarhaiku234-when-the-cicadas-cease/

i used three samples from field recordings of birds found in pine forests, bee-eaters, pine warblers, and woodpeckers, by benboncan, dobroide, and kvgarlic, from freesound.org

i played these in a sampler module in vcv rack, and i also played the woodpecker sample in klirrfactory's grain oscillator, tuned two octaves down, the output of which was then also sent to the resonator module (mutable instruments rings) in sympathetic strings mode

all sounds were also sent to the plateau reverb module, and everything was heavily modulated, especially the speed of the sample playback

Local Canons (ASR study)

Made with VCVrack, and a physical rack. One go recording. Just hall reverb effects added in postprocess.

Tankestutsar om natten / Mind jumps during the night

I was a bit late with day 3. I attempted another generative patch in VCV rack. I think it went pretty well. The only problem is creating more variation in the patch. Feedback is appreciated.

Day 3 #21DaysofVGM

My patch for the Portland Weather Contest. I sadly never been to Portland, but it is meant to be a stroll trough the city on an evening in rain an storm. Enjoy!

Jazzy Weather In Portland

Named from where it was composed. 
Computer (vcv rack) and human (electric guitar) generated.

Hometown Road

My patch for the Submarine PO 204 Contest. Enjoy!

i'm using this account to post my vcv rack experiments, that i'm making as part of a 50 day challenge. i will post an experiment most days of the week, until i get to a total of 50.

vcv rack is a free and open source software emulation of a eurorack modular synthesizer, with many modules contributed freely by the community.

as much as i can, i will also post videos on my youtube channel explaining my experiments.

all my music is released under a cc-by-sa license (unless i use samples licensed differently), which means you can download and reuse my music for your own use, add to it, remix it, mangle it, as long as you publish it under the same license.
