A lightning bolt  ( Naviarhaiku 337 )

I attempted to mix some synths playing harmonic and melodic elements with various field recordings and effects. I also employed a traditional Japanese scale (called in, related to the phyrgian mode). The mix didn't gel quite as I'd hoped but the overall impression I was going for is there.

This track was inspired by the following Haiku:
A lightning bolt,
splits in two and strikes -
the mountaintop

Mountaintop Bolt (naviarhaiku337)

A lightning bolt
splits in two and strikes
the mountaintop.
