Haiku Music Challenge 26
Welcome to the twenty-sixth iteration of the Haiku Music Challenge, hosted by Naviar Records.
It seems that many members of our community got hooked on Talk to Transformer! Here’s a haiku written by our friend Corine Timmer using the AI software. Corine lives in the countryside in the south of Portugal: she is an interior designer, animal lover, haiku poet, and a self-published author.
a bright star
in a moonless sky —
gentle breeze
Corine’s poem inspired nineteen tracks, and here are three I selected this week for you:
Track: moonless
Artist: How the Night Came
Genre: electronicThis guitar piece by How the Night Came makes a perfect fit for the haiku it’s inspired by, as it combines peaceful guitar melodies and carefully crafted ambient textures into a short cinematic experience.
Track: A Bright Star
Artist: GHel Haiku
Genre: ambientBy alternating quiet moments with simple, enigmatic melodies and crescendos, GHel seems to be capturing the mood and solitude of a lone space traveler.
Track: A Bright Star
Artist: Scott Lawlor
Genre: ambientThis 10-minute ambient track by Scott Lawlor is cinematic space music at its best, reminiscent of the Tangerine Dream’s electronic experiments of the early 70s.
Listen to Scott Lawlor – A Bright Star (naviarhaiku 287) byNaviar Records on hearthis.at
Thank you for listening. Next week we’ll be listening to music inspired by a haiku by Kobayashi Issa:
a clear waterfall
into the ripples
fall green pine needles
The deadline to submit your track is 17 July. To find out more and participate, please visit the Naviar Records site.
