I guess your dog's howling deserves a study of its own!

a world of sound [naviarhaiku562]

Another witches’ brew of sound, lost and found. A drone track of uncertain origin mixed with a heavily mistreated recording of my dog howling, combined with three stretched and pitch-altered versions of a recording of brass sleigh bells treated with excessive amounts of delay and a few other Audacity plugins.

"Bract" from new the album "Seeds"
https://placement.bandcamp.com/album/seeds
Love -  I've always shied away from the four letter word. Maybe it was the schmaltz of popular music, but I'd had enough of "moon in June" love songs before I was old enough to buy recordings - and I guess, it's taken me until now to get over it!

However this album is undeniably about being "in love". That's human love, but it also touches on the love of things, the love of ideas and my enduring love, of places. All these loves are genuine - and because of this, it was very easy to be inspired by them.

The musical driving force was what I guess you'd call intuition.
I did not plan this album. I just went along thinking "I want this track to feel like this" and then let it happen...

This assignment fitted with the track I was working on at the time, a single-take improv on a recent Naviar Haiku Challenge track. I simply added some reverb to mask a couple of misjudged moments and a “space” version courtesy of Abstract Chamber. I enhanced the fade-in and fade-out which were a bit faint.

The title is from Ray Bradbury’s “The Fog Horn”

“I'll make me a sound and an apparatus and they'll call it a Fog Horn and whoever hears it will know the sadness of eternity and the briefness of life."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...
