This is a strange atmosphere, it is absorbing... A great track!

Helsinki Downspout Crackles (disquiet0581)

A rhythmic field-recording of a downspout in Helsinki serves as the basis for this track, inspired by the Disquiet Junto Projet 0581 (details see below).

Somehow Helsinki immediately  triggered thoughts of Aki Kaurismäki and his many beautiful films. Especially https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drifting_Clouds_(film) came to mind and gave the track its title.
I hope the track does it justice. Since it was created rather technically it is a result of the versatility of randomness and the power of art.

I proceeded as follows: First, low-pass and high-pass filtered versions of the field-recording were created. Then hit-points and midi-notes were extracted from these three variants. These were assigned to different instruments.
Two variants of the field-recording created with PaulXStretch are also included.

Raindrops Keep Falling On My Tin Foil Hat (disquiet0581)

This was my contribution for the Disquiet Junto Project 0581:Helsinki Downspout

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0581 discussion thread:

I went in a lot of different directions at first trying to figure out how to incorporate the rhythmic field recording but finally settled on using it alongside more ambient tracks. Hopefully the source audio isn't lost or too much in the background.

This was created in Ableton Live using Slate+Ash Choreographs and ThePhonoLoop Tapes.01. The sample was modulated with Max for Live Slink Devices with added effects using Valhalla Supermassive and Baby Audio Spaced Out.

Thanks to Scott Fletcher for allowing us to use his recorded sample. Water drops image is by sneaky-head via Unsplash.

I had two ideas for a new Techno subgenre: “Fibonacci Techno” and “Technoviking Techno”. The first would follow Fibonacci numbers as closely as possible. The second would sound like the first track in the famous Technoviking meme video (acoustics, not melodies or beats). The first I deemed easy to pull off, the second impossible. So to make a challenge out of this, I merged the two genres into “Fibonacci Viking Techno”. I followed the numbers as closely as possible, e.g. setting all values of instruments and effects to Fibonacci numbers (which musically makes little sense - but the concept asked for). The bass drum is on 8, most other things on 1, 2, 3, 5, 13 or 21. For effects I went up to 89 - wow! Then I tried to boost tone whole thing to Viking level, which I unfortunately did not reach. Kept it really short with lots of breaks, which is the norm in this genre.

KimberlaID, Claude Murder - NOW

"Composite things are like dreams. Fantasies. Bubbles. Thoughts. Like a dewdrop and a flash of lightning; A new dress and a burning tire; Grains of sand and sinking ships; The shadow of a statue and an entry in a diary; A brain tumor and an ice cream sundae. They are thus to be regarded."
