This turned out a bit more Hallowe'en than I was expecting, but given the date, maybe that's OK 😁💀🎃

Saitō Sanki (1900 – 1962) was a dentist who discovered his passion for haiku poetry in his mid-thirties, when his colleagues at the hospital in Soto Kanda convinced him to write a haiku for a collection. Later, he became one of the most important exponents of wartime haiku: he was imprisoned in 1940 during the government’s World War II persecution of controversial artists, and was officially forbidden to write until the end of the war.

The brief for this week’s Disquiet Junto challenge noted how the singing of ‘Happy Birthday’ often falls apart around the name stage … This idea of musical collapse immediately made me think of Anglican church services, when the organ - along with those who are confident of the hymn being sung - sometimes falls into desperately trying to pull everyone along, never far from falling apart. In this piece, a recording I made of a service I attended a while back (which has its own backstory) becomes the material for electronic mangling and rhythmic snipping for my take on the idea of repeated collapse. It’s VERY far from being in the same league, but parts of the result remind me a little of Jonathan Harvey’s extraordinary Mortuos Plango, Vivos Voco (1980) - one of my all-time favourite electroacoustic masterpieces ...

il mio obbiettivo sarebbe produrre una lunga traccia di “musique d’ameublement”, quindi se qualcuno volesse aggiungere i propri suoni - pochi, sparsi e quieti - la cosa sarebbe molto gradita. Nel caso, fatemi sapere.

Prima cosa, un doveroso ringraziamento a Remo De Vico, che ha offerto gratutamente diversi AMXD di sua progettazione.  Grazie soprattutto per i 4 progetti di Ableton riguardanti varie tecniche di Musica Generativa.

Per questo pezzo ho usato il primo progetto, che ha pilotato vari strumenti, tra cui i soliti piani preparati, 3 contrabbassi e un clarinetto.
IL tutto filtrato da reverberi, delays e altri FX.


First, a heartfelt "thank you" to Remo De Vico, who freely offered several AMXDs of his designs.
Thanks especially for the four Ableton projects covering various Generative Music techniques.

For this track I used the first project, which drove various instruments, including the usual prepared pianos, three double basses (with different settings), and a clarinet.
All filtered with reverbs, delays, and other FX.
