Shifting Sands (naviarhaiku173)

After listening to the fantastic output of Naviar Records and their weekly Haiku challenge for a while, I thought it was about time I submitted a track and contributed to this excellent idea.

The idea of the Naviar Haiku is to respond with music to the Haiku.

My piece started as an attempt to make a grainy sand like sound, I used a recording with a lot of hiss and grain and built up some repeating loops from here, I went for what I hope is a hypnotic repetition, as if lost in the sand deep in a desert. The shifting flow of the music reflects the shifting sands.
