Disquiet Junto Project 0576: Casual Resolution
The Assignment: Get a musical New Year’s resolution out of the way.

A musical resolution for 2023 for me is to finish tracks. Finish. More. Tracks.

My submission was at risk of becoming another 40 second WIP. But now its finished :) My approach was doing something fun, sample based and mostly in the box with heavy timeline and midi editing. No random or generative this time. And LOUD.

Disquiet Junto Project 0591: The Loneliest Number
The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.
More info on Disquiet Junto: disquiet.com/0591/

Last summer, after an accident, I had to stop playing double bass. This is my second attempt to get back to the instrument after months of silence, I thought this could be a nice opportunity to share the process and slowly start to get my hands on it to see how it feels and how my body responds to playing.
Focused on improvisation, gesture, silence and number 7. 

7 seconds of music are followed by 7 seconds of silence. 14 seconds of music are followed by 14 seconds of silence. 21 seconds of music are followed by 21 seconds of silence. Repeat and then decrease time until the last 7 seconds of silence.
Loosely based on recording pre-count at ~ 60.50 bpm 
No timer was used during the process, so there may be irregularities.
I only played my double bass open G string with a bow.
Added some slight Mimeophon delay-modulation then a bit of chorus + phaser + tape effect (encoderaudio Ferro) in Ableton Live.
I kept volume low in order to make it possible to work on it and mix further things for future use.

7 + 7 + 7 (disquiet0591)

Plucking Blink Wink) (disquiet0610)

This track, my contribution to the Disquiet Junto Project 0629, was created in exceptional circumstances and has a very special meaning to me.

For creating this I selected the middle section of my track https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/rabbits-delight, cut in into a jigsaw puzzle of 6 pieces, present these pieces to the listener first, and then put the puzzle together piece by piece.

Rabbit's New Life  (Disquiet0629)

A nice prompt!

I started with a 4-second, mid-heavy ambience loop you hear at the start. Everything else is made from this one loop… so it was a plug-fest.

I used Micron Cascade for granular reverb, eFx Motion for, well, motion, Q-3 for EQing, Portal for granular madness, Mf-105S Murf for movement, Neutron for overall balance, and a transient designer to get some drumlike sounds.

There’s not much going on, so 1:20 felt long enough.

Disquiet Junto Project 0631: In a Silent Waveform

The Assignment: Take one held tone and make it dance slowly.

There is just one step to this project: Take one held tone and make it dance slowly.

As with any Junto project, interpret as you see fit.

Seven Important Steps When Your Track Is Done:

Step 1: Include “disquiet0631” (no spaces or quotation marks) in the name of your tracks.

Step 2: If your audio-hosting platform allows for tags, be sure to also include the project tag “disquiet0631” (no spaces or quotation marks). If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to subsequent location of tracks for the creation of a project playlist.

Step 3: Upload your tracks. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your tracks.

Step 4: Post your track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0631-in-a-silent-waveform/

Step 5: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process.

Step 6: If posting on social media, please consider using the hashtag #DisquietJunto so fellow participants are more likely to locate your communication.

Step 7: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Note: Please post one track for this weekly Junto project. If you choose to post more than one, and do so on SoundCloud, please let me know which you’d like added to the playlist. Thanks.

Additional Details:

Length: The length is up to you.

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, February 5, 2024, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, February 1, 2024.
