haiku #575: Even though afar / a feeling of coolness / comes from those mountain pines

Inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0666, I set to music my view of the devil - a now abstract concept with its origins in myth. I love myths and reading about them - from Joseph Campbell to Stephen Fry...

More on the 666th weekly Disquiet Junto project, Beauty and the Beast — The Assignment: We’ve hit a devilish numerical milestone. Do your thing. — at https://disquiet.com/0666/

The Devil is an Abstract Concept  (Disquiet0666)

More Angel Heart than burning fires but there you go.....

[disquiet0666] Descent

Recorded, mixed & mastered 02/03 Oct 2024 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa.

For this, I started with a very casual absently-minded piano piece using  QuNexus, Noire Felt & Bitwig. I pulled a section of this for this Naviar Haiku and another section for this week’s Disquiet Junto. I moved an audio copy of this section to Ableton Live and added a dronish patch I put together in Vital. I added some Chow Tape Model to the piano track. That’s really it. 

This original version of "Trunk, Redeclared" was submitted as part of Naviar Haiku 561, stars on the pond…

stars on the pond...
again the pitter-pattering
freezing drizzle

by: Tachibana Hokushi

Tachibana Hokushi, whose real name was Tachibana Genjiro, was born in Kanazawa in 1665. Hokushi was one of Basho’s most famous students at the time, and he even accompanied the great master during part of his famous journey through the narrow roads of the North, from Kanazawa to Matsuoka.

My submission for Naviar Haiku #574.

I really recommend listening with good headphones!

Blossoming Deception - naviarhaiku574

Even though afar
a feeling of coolness comes
from those mountain pines

Kagami Shikō was a Japanese poet, considered one of the ten outstanding disciples of Matsuo Bashō. He was in turn the master of the famous poetess Fukuda Chiyo-ni.

Originally from the present-day Gifu Prefecture, Kagami Shikō became a monk at Daichi-ji Temple, and in 1690 he became a pupil of Bashō, later accompanying him on some of his journeys and recording his last will in 1694.

After Basho's death, he kept travelling around Japan, writing several essays on haiku and collections of writings until his death in 1731.

Even Though Afar ( Naviarhaiku 575 )

This strange little tune uses only the single spoken word 'pine' as it's sole source material, making use of various forms of sampling and manipulation, including the wonderful Synplant 2 ... Enjoy! 😁

Although be careful, it's so odd the SC algorithm has warned me it won't be recommending it to potentially interested listeners ... Presumably, it's not considered 'music' by the machine?! Result! 😜
