My latest album release “Hexad” is exclusive to Soundcloud and consists of 4 tracks all related through themes/sounds and by using a maximum of 6 synthesizers (+ vox samples of me from my Octatrack). Hexad I-IV differ somewhat in mood, structure, melody & length. Slower, more downtempo vibe here as the tempo sits around 88-110 bpm. Enjoy!

Hexad II

Recorded, mixed & mastered 07 Jun 2019, 27 Oct 2021 & 09-10 Feb 2024 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa.

Process notes

09 Feb 2024
I have a 5-track Live template for my Bubble Memory project name, so I loaded a windy backyard recording of a kalimba & a glass from Oct 2021 into that. I split the backyard recording into the two tracks I have set aside for field recordings. Each has tons of processing loaded in already. The template includes kick and snare parts so I started by creating a minimal beat that might hopefully hold this thing together and added some lesser probability to those notes. 

I also have a Simpler track in the template so I loaded some of the backyard recording into that one too. I found the entire thing too constantly noisy and wrote some ideas to my notes about gating & adjusting some of the effects before shutting down for the night.

10 Feb 2024
Loading this back up, I first worked on adding some gates to a few of the tracks to thin out the noise bits. I added an iAbyssal recording I made in 2019 to the final track in the template. Added sparingly both an Arpeggiator to the Simpler track & a Note Repeat to the drum track. Then I worked a bit on other automations, including panning. This felt like it was done and I rendered both a mastered and unmastered mix for later use and for this Junto. It still felt like wind to me.

The first thunder
Is likely to shake
The tiered doll stand.

Is the poem for the HaikuChallnge531
Like Santoka and Seisensui, Kawahigashi Hekigoto (1873-1937) was an important advocate of the free verse haiku.
Besides being a writer and critic of haiku, Hekigoto was a literary scholar, noh dancer, art critic, calligrapher, social commentator, and mountain climber.
