Blood and Sacrifice

ok...

While making those tracks, all I wanted was to give my thoughts the sound they deserved...

Fusions

Washington Square Collage (disquiet0478)

as per the brief, I used parts from the archives, whether field recordings or audio snippets from previous projects to populate the various phrases in this piece. Post effects include Echo and multiband compression to help gel the somewhat random parts together.

Concrete [disquiet0458]

As I've just finished binge watching Mindhunter on Netflix, it's probably not surprising that it and the atmospheric image fused in my mind and the two became the inspiration for this track.
Done almost entirely using the Korg Wavestate, except for the crackles, which was Arturia's CMI V through Vallhalla Supermassive.

The Fog Of Doubt (disquiet0476)

Long time, no time. This piece is a response to the weekly Disquiet Junto Challenge. This time, the assignment was:

Record a piece of music in which some substantial portion is performed without looking.

Inspired by a recent musical tool (the XLNAudio XO), using my mouse and a map of drum samples, I randomly traveled different samples by moving my mouse over the map with my eyes closed. The sampled output of that "journey" ends when the mouse exited the map and no sounds were left. Using the first and only recording of that exploration, i added some spectral noise and a few strings and chords trying to convey the strange emotion that I encountered, listening to the samples.

The Uncertainty Principle (disquiet0477)

**Production Notes**

Boy, this was a fun assignment! Don’t know about the other participants in this challenge, but it felt great to close my eyes and just start to play.  But first I learnt that it’s impossible to patch and play a three-row Modular blindfolded. There’s too much tactile information, too many knobs, and you get tangled in the cables. 

So I turned to the Cocoquantus for a gritty base pad sound. Finding knobs and patchpoints was much easier with this instrument. 

Next step was an Easel Command, which arrived just two weeks ago. I was quite nervous while playing it (still have a lot to learn), but actually, it was easier to wiggle than I thought. And it just felt great.  

Last step was the Moog Matriarch and its lovely delay. Again, I patched with my eyes closed, corrected a misplaced connection and started playing a bass, some chords and just some weird delay and filter sounds. 

Threw everything together in Ableton, pre-mastered in Ozone. Time spent: 3 hours.

** Disquiet Junto Project 0477: Flying Blind**

The Assignment: Record a piece of music in which some substantial portion is performed without looking.

There is just one step this week.

Step 1: Play something blind. That is to say, record a piece of music in which some substantial portion is performed without looking.

Seven More Important Steps When Your Track Is Done:

Step 1: Include “disquiet0477” (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 “disquiet0477” (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 tracks in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0477-flying-blind/

Step 5: Annotate your tracks 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.

Additional Details:

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, February 22, 2021, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, February 18, 2021.

Length: The length is up to you. (You’re closing your eyes, not holding your breath.)
