naviarhaiku565 – springtime woods

The haiku shared by Naviar Records this week reminded me that I had a recording of bushland waiting for a soundtrack.

My track is busier than the poem might suggest, but I like to think the bubbling bassline reflects the dreams of the raptors.

No noise music


 

Disquiet Junto 0670 Right of Way

The Junto prompt this week is the turn signal on a car.

I like the symbolism, since it's the US election.

So I promote turning left, but acknowledge that the left-leaning choice isn't far from the centre-right.

Disquiet Junto 0669 Phonosynthesis

The Junto assignment this week is to "Make music to help a forest regenerate."

I went looking through my recent ideas and liked the way the organ holds this piece together with a sense of soul like that I can imagine is the role of fungal activity.

There's also the steady rhythm and I decided to give a sense of decay to the melody line, which is a significant contribution from fungi in a forest.

Burial on drums

“I know when I’m happy with my drums because they look like a nice fishbone. When they look just skeletal as [feck] in front of me, and so I know they’ll sound good.”

Disquiet Junto 0668 All Right Then, Keep Your Secrets

 

The Disquiet Junto prompt this week is fun: "Bury a secret sound until it is no longer identifiable."

Not sure how much to share about my process as the sound is still intelligible to my ears, however it does have an accompaniament that makes it feel at home.
