All the sounds in this track are derived from original recordings of ice cubes in a glass.

Ice Cubism (disquiet0679)

sound art for disquiet0679.

I have quite a few of my sound sculptures outside in my garden at the moment. Mostly to create space in my cramped studio, but also to let them get exposed to some weather. Letting nature in, to change them and the way they sound, collecting rain water and going rusty. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday the weather has been sub-zero in the mornings so the sculptures got frozen. I picked a few and took them into the studio to record.

The main body of the track is an idea from a sound installation I did in 2024 called The Trickle. It used an apparent running water sound that was created by playing coins embedded in wood with animal bones. This seemed to fit with the idea of the frozen landscape thawing as the sun came up.

I put some of the sculptures on top of a radiator to melt the ice a bit and then swirled the ice and rain water around inside a sculpture with a tin on it, like ice cubes in a drink.

The sculpture with golden flowers got played with animal bones, just like the coins.

All recorded with contact mics and no effects. A bit of EQing.

Disquiet Junto Project 0679: Ice Age
The Assignment: Record the sound of ice in a glass and make something with it.

With my Zoom H5 I recorded some Ice Cubes falling into and moving inside a salad bowl made of glass. I made a lot of efforts to get most out of the sound, for example I placed the bowl on a clotheshorse, so that it can swing more freely … but at the end I didn't use these sounds. I applied a lot of diverse stretching and reverb to get some pads and made a Pigments granular patch with some sounds I liked most. What I had planned didn't work and I made a lot of unusable detours. Now it's mostly an improvisation over some kind of instable repetitive structure, and I like it. All sound is based on the ice cube glass recordings; you may assume there are water noises, but it's really (stretched) ice, maybe sometimes with some surrounding meltwater.

The recordings can be found on my Freesound page

ICEDESCENCE [disquiet0679]

split up a recording of ice in a glass into several parts - one part with rattling ice ended up frozen in a granular sampler's buffer, scrubbed through. two others triggered independently. layered in two other parts afterwards in ableton live - one just the ticking/sliding sound of the ice melting, with a lot of gain; the other layer is the glass being tapped.

An ice cube dropped into a glass - that is the starting point. Aside from the melancholic drone via a CS-80 emulation, all the sounds are derived from the original sample, with the processing being done via Arturia's Fragments and Motions plug ins.

This is a collaboration project for the traditional Ice challenge to start the year of 2025. The ice cube is the recording of a frozen lake. Thank you Fer, Seb & Rob for our nice recording session.

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0679: Ice Age. The Assignment: Record the sound of ice in a glass and make something with it.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0679 discussion thread on Lines:

At first I wasn’t sure if I had time but am glad I’m able to participate in the first Disquiet Junto for the new year. Created this dark noisy soundscape using field recordings of ice rattling in two different drinking vessels. Then copied these sounds into a 64hp rack that included Morphagene, Function, Ikarie and Nautilus. Combined everything in Ableton Live and added a couple random field recordings, samples and an additional track using Slate+Ash Primaries Strings. This turned out more chaotic and dense than I would have liked but enjoyed the creative process of putting this together.
