Plucks & Pad (disquiet0609)

This week's assignment left me somewhat conflicted. 

I wanted to leave enough room for Disquiet Junto members to take parts of the track and add their ideas. On the other hand, it should sound like a track and not like an assembly of 4-bar loops. I hope I left enough space for you to add. If not, there's always the possibility to EQ the s*** out of it. 

Second, 60 BPM feels like 120 BPM when you add 16th hi-hats to it... but I couldn't resist doing it.

First Disquiet

Digitakt + Syntakt + Norns + Mood2 + Guitar + Blooper

Piano sample from another project

Small guitar ambient guitar sample using Blooper as a fast delay with the glitch effect. Created tones using sustainer pickup and fading in to the delay line.

Kept it minimal to allow for space if other instruments come.

Added reverb kick on Syntakt

Added hi hat on 1, 3, 4 - just felt better

Added notes on Norns Awake application into Mood2 reverb. Captured small glitchy samples.

Lots of repeating ideas so I grabbed a few passes of the glitch to leave in as a choice.

Added a lot of gain in post processing. Need to look at my gain staging!

Disquiet Junto Project 0609: Speed Limit Pt 1
The Assignment: Record a track at precisely 60 BPM with the intention someone will subsequently rework it.

Step 1: You’re going to record a simple track at 60 BPM in 4/4 that will be reworked subsequently by other musicians, including potentially being combined with other tracks. Think about how you want to structure something with that intention.

Step 2: Record a 60 BPM track in 4/4 based on the thinking that resulted from Step 1.

Note: This is the first part of a two-part project. You don’t need to participate in both. In the Junto, all projects are intended to be doable as standalones. However, there often are sequences. The intended second project of this project, next week, will build on this one, so please consider making your track downloadable and available for reworking/remixing.

Track notes:
 
I started by creating some simple 60bpm arpeggiated sequences on a Microkorg and improvised over the top of this with synth, guitar and a vibraphone patch. To top it off and give the track something a bit asynchronous, I added an 1950s field recording of a Australian Blue Faced Honeyeater, which provides a playful - and oddly complimentary - counterpoint to the otherwise rigid arrangement. 

This recording has 32 bars of the 60bpm track with no fades.

60bpm Stomp [disquiet0609]

After my first few tries with Ableton Note ended in 60 BPM Venetian Snares territory, I decided to keep my submission simple and easy to add to. So it is just a simple chord progression made with Microfreak and the fantastic acrostic. I resisted adding layers or effects to it.

Sleep Spindles (disquiet0609)

My submission for the Disquiet Junto 0609 with the assignment: Record a track at precisely 60 BPM with the intention someone will subsequently rework it.

I just viewed Tobias Reber's interview with Marc Weidenbaum, so I thought: let's make something in Éliane Radigue style. Frankly that's all there is to say to it.

Speed Limt Pt 1 (disquiet0609)

Speed Limit Pt 1 (disquiet0609)

60bpmb • G# /  Ab

A dubby modular type composition using a Dannysound En-129 TZFM VCO as the a mid-freq synth voice, sequenced/performed by the Moog Grandmother arpeggiator. There were some filter pings from Serge Variable Q VCF as a rhythmic element.

Then I stumbled into a strangely interesting formant-y bass sound by manipulating Ableton's Warp settings and using M4L 'Envelope Midi' to shape the filter controlling it. The drums are one-hits sampled from modular and then resampled + rechopped using Twisted Wave and Ableton, and programmed with Drum Rack.
