I found out today that John passed away. John participated in the Naviar Haiku challenge for over 4 years, almost every week, and shared both his music and poetry with us. He'll be deeply missed.

"John Hinks, aka FlownBlue, was a prolific and talented composer, and a regular participant in the Haiku challenge. Aside from his solo project, John was also involved in multiple projects: ‘Windfall Light‘ (with Jim Tetlow), ‘Abstract Blue‘ (with Kevin Buckland), ‘Light Fragments‘ (with Steve Escott), Szukanie (with Michał Wojciechowski), and Meadowlight (with Emma Reed)."

Until Darkness Falls (naviarhaiku536)

Recorded for the Naviar Haiku challenge #536.

The intention is to illustrate the passing; peacefully, into darkness, into light.

Starting with a simple arpeggio on the Vintage Vibe, running through a Space Echo, followed by a slow and mellow bass on the Moog One and a bit of space glitter from the Waldorf Quantum. Finished off with an ambiguous melody on the Moog.

Recorded in Logic Pro X with a Soundcraft MTK22.

The cormorant in the forest;
The cherry blossoms
Along the evening path.
