Name: Spirit of the pines [Naviar Haiku170] by Tuonela in Haiku #170: Wind through the pines, / Shadows of the pines; / I'm lying down in the shade.
Duration: 6 min 58 s
Description: Made for the Blue Spruce and the grove of pines behind my house, and for http://www.naviarrecords.com/2017/04/05/naviarhaiku170-wind-through-the-pines/

Listening to these wonderful & transporting sounds makes me feel that I am sitting in the midst of a pine grove on a warm day, feeling the very gentle breeze and experiencing the smell of the pines, all while imagining the peace and equanimity with which I would experience the world if I looked at it from the perspective of a pine tree -- the distant washes of organ-like sounds are particularly beautiful, as is their slow and subtle buildup -- many thanks, as always, for another sublime & inspiring track!

Haiku #170: Wind through the pines, / Shadows of the pines; / I'm lying down in the shade.

Word 
became flesh
He dwelt among us
became man

Body of His flesh,
through death
presents us
holy blameless

[chorus in Greek]
In the beginning was the Word
and the Word was with God
and God was the Word

Spirit
descends
remained on Him,
like a dove

Only begotten Son
Christ is king,
Before all time

No 
earthly thing
can separate us
From God’s love

[chorus]

God
Made all things
through Him and for Him
all abide

Every Good thing
is from the father
of Heavenly lights

Walk 
in the light
The way revealed 
to eternal life

Joy
Complete
born again
in spirit
for all time

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~ Aldous Huxley

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it. ~ Jean Cocteau

All music is beautiful. ~ Billy Strayhorn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

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...
