Decaying A Little More Each Day (disquiet0684)

Disquiet Junto Project 0684: Early Bird
The Assignment: Record not so much an alarm as a guided wakening.

Step 1: You are going to record a piece of music intended for someone to listen to almost immediately upon waking up. Think about your mornings, and what a more optimal morning might entail.

Step 2: Consider a scenario in which someone wakes up and, rather than look at their work or check the news, they take a period of time to just get centered. Think about how long you might want this to take, say three minutes, or five minutes, or twenty minutes.

Step 3: Consider the stages of awakening, from quiet to loud, from slow to fast (or a middling pace), from simple to complex. Perhaps the sounds go full circle, returning to where they started.

Step 4: Consider what sound at the end — a gong, a bell, a bird call, etc. — might signal that the waking process has concluded.

Step 5: Having reflected on the topics brought up in the instructions thus far, record a track that might guide someone slowly into consciousness upon waking each morning.

morning song disquiet0684

This week, members of the Disquiet Junto were invited to make a piece of music intended for listening to while awakening from sleep. My first thought was, "I'm going to try really hard to not make this creepy." Was I successful?

The title is an anagram of my full name— how cool is that? My composition is, as Bjork might say, not only musical but scientifical. I'm using binaural mixing to create a 6Hz oscillation that slowly transitions from theta waves to alpha waves, providing neural feedback that guides the listener from a  meditative state to a calmly wakeful one. Note that you can only experience this effect using headphones.

This track features many layers of evolving pads, gentle ebow guitar, and integrated field recordings. You might be surprised at which ones are which. The vocals are organic. 

Please tell me it's not creepy.

[Disquiet Junto 0684] Light blue ripples on the morning

The track starts off with simulated bird sounds, courtesy of the Wing Pinger. Gradually, a C+ chord emerges, which is then joined by a bouncy sequence and eventually a rather standard techno beat, which will hopefully get one out of bed and onto the sidewalk for a good morning run.

"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."
