So now there's a Wikipedia in Toki Pona. It's a constructed language, comparable to #esperanto, but much more modern, and with a curious philosophy of having as few words as possible.

I know very little about Toki Pona. You can read more about it in English in the English Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toki_Pona

#TokiPona written in sitelen Lasin is a phonetic language, meaning that it's possible to generate all available rhymes from just the written words. So I did that.

Guess what? It's time for the 46th track of the year :)

I'm not sure how I should describe this one. Some kind of lo fi trip hop or #downtempo I suppose. With a deep, slow bass, and some rather broken piano.

The beat is certainly a bit broken too. But all these bits fit quite well together, I think, as if all the imperfections could blend into something more wholesome. Or maybe not?

#TokiPona

@_elena @MichelPatrice @filipe #tokipona still missing? ;)

For now, back in a box.

Eventually they'll be framed and displayed here in #ThisOldClownHouse.

One other glorious find...

During our initial explorations of #tokipona and clown, we made a bunch of 'gift tags' for a show. They were inscribed with the 'jan nasa pona' glyph we created.

The best of the bunch was scanned, vectorised, and became the glyph on the footer of our website.

I found the tag we used! It's going in a curio cabinet for a bit, so I can see it in the lounge while resting.

And it's that time of the week again... Here's the 45th track of 2025 :)

I suppose this can still be called #dub #techno, though it also certainly sounds like a variety of other things. This kinds of reminds me of Boards of Canada while not sounding like Boards of Canada at all.

For me, it probably triggers the vague and distant memory of one of their tracks, or some forgotten feeling somehow linked to that vibe. I'm not sure.

I'd be curious to know what it makes you feel.

#TokiPona

Hey there, it seems like it's time for the 44th track of 2025 :)

And apparently we're back in #dub #techno territories, with warm saturated sounds and a rather #ambient vibe, even if the beat has a bit more presence than in the previous track.

I love sailing along the thin frontier between distant chords and quiet noise, where everything blends into a fuzzy ocean of soothing static yet keeps some structure and musicality.

Today I'm reminded of one of the first nonessential creative objects I threw together in #ThisOldClownHouse

There was a cheap clock on the wall with a pushy religious phrase.

I tore it apart. I destroyed it. Broke it. Remade it. It isn't even a clock anymore.

It now has a glyphtic phrase in #tokipona on it:

'Ijo wan lon tenpo wan'

(One thing in one time)

The word lon also means present, here, and truth.

An arrow points directly at it, as if to say, "You're not too late, it's still now."

Still mildly interested in learning Toki Pona. (You know, among the 99 other things I'm interested in learning right now but who knows if I'll ever make time for any of it.) Debating how much effort I should put into learning .


I rarely see it used, but then I also haven't looked very hard and mostly base that on Toki Pona posts on fedi and gemini.

On the other hand, it's just kinda neat.

This is the end of 2025's 43rd week, so here's my 43rd track.

https://lectronice.bandcamp.com/track/weka-seli

It seems drones and pads may stay for a while. I find rather interesting to keep exploring atmospheric textures while keeping a minimalist structure with a barely audible rhythm. It's kind of warm and fuzzy, not so far from dub techno... but without the techno, and with only a hint of dub.

Hey, it’s time for the 42nd track of 2025 :)

This one is kind of quiet. A lot more than the previous ones.

https://lectronice.bandcamp.com/track/ken-la-mi-lape

I felt the need to go back to beatless #ambient. It’s not exactly drone, but it’s close enough.

#TokiPona

Hey there, here comes track number 41 :)

It was supposed to be breakcore. It's not. In fact, it's rather relaxed even if the tempo is still at 180. This is some bizarre flavor of trip hop, with a big bass and a cheesy melody.

https://lectronice.bandcamp.com/track/toki-insa-kule

Yes, I like cheesy melodies...

It's been 40 weeks... So here comes the 40th track :)

I suppose we're still in those strange breaks territories, except it now sounds a bit like a bizarre memory of Boards of Canada and World's End Girlfriend trying to jam together while obviously too drunk.

https://lectronice.bandcamp.com/track/mi-sona-ala-la-mi-sona-ale

I hope you'll have as much fun listening to this as I had making it.
