Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun. If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku: http://haikuguy.com/issa/

Spring Rain

Spring Rain (naviarhaiku530)

Recorded, mixed & mastered 23 Jun 2019, 02/03 Mar 2024 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa.

Instruments -
Ableton Live 12 beta, Operator and other native devices, iOS/iAbyssal, field recordings of train provided by Todd “toaster” Elliot.

Process notes -
From the original audio recording of a train by Todd Elliot - 
- I derived the melodic elements and drum bits with Live’s audio-to-midi features. 
- I further split, duplicated, stretched & gated the original shorter audio train recording - heard here as rhythmic bursts. 
- Looped a section of the original audio to form a very loose rhythm. 

I also added another rhythmic element using a segment of an iPhone recording I made on 23 Jun 2019 using the app iAbyssal.

Disquiet Junto Project 0636: Left (1 of 3)

The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.

Please note: While this project is the start of a three-part sequence that will unfold over the course of three weeks, you can participate in any or all three of those parts.

Step 1: This week’s Junto project is the first in a sequence intended to encourage and reward collaboration. You will be recording something with the understanding that it will remain unfinished for the time being. Your part will be done, but more will happen. Read on.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record a short and original piece of music using any instrumentation of your choice. Conceive the piece as something that leaves room for something else — other instruments, other people — to join in. (Keep in mind that your piece would appear panned to the left in the finished recording, after three weeks.)

Step 3: Record a short piece of music, roughly two to three minutes in length, as described in Step 2.

Step 4: This is important: be sure to make your track downloadable because it may be used by someone else in the next Disquiet Junto project, and then after that.
