There’s no such things as a free lunch, especially on the internet. 

Ads were always a nuisance, first in Radio, then in TV, now on YouTube. The problem is – and I don’t have to mention that in the Lines community - that other people are making the money, not the artist, unless you’re really popular. If I upload my track to YouTube (it’s Creative Commons), Google will inject at least 2-3 ads and cash in the money without my consent. And I’ll never see a cent of that. 

The idea of injecting ads to break the cycle, as the assignment says, came fast. But it took two days until I had „the product“  ready. It contains Playbox, the awesome Mercury from Cherry Audio, SQ-80, Reaktor and a ton of drums. I also recorded some ads from YouTube and skipped them after the obligatory seconds. Mixing took another half day, so I spent at least 12-18 hours with the assignment. 

I’ve uploaded an ads-free and free to download version on Soundcloud, also.

Disquiet Junto Project 0553: Break That Cycle The Assignment: Record in a steady tempo but break it on occasion.  This is a one-step project: Record in a steady tempo but break it on occasion. For example, you might record a piece of music in 4/4 at a steady pace, but occasionally break it by including an extra bar or a stray three-bar sequence, or a segment that’s notably faster or slower.  Eight Important Steps When Your Track Is Done:  Step 1: Include “disquiet0553” (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 “disquiet0553” (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 track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co:  Project discussion takes place on llllllll.co: https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0553-break-that-cycle/  Step 5: Annotate your track 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.  Step 8: Also join in the discussion on the Disquiet Junto Slack. Send your email address to marc@disquiet.com for Slack inclusion.  Note: Please post one track for this weekly Junto project. If you choose to post more than one, and do so on SoundCloud, please let me know which you’d like added to the playlist. Thanks.  Additional Details:  Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, August 8, 2022, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, August 4, 2022.  Length: The length is up to you.  (…)

Kurt Baggaley, also known under the alias as Scape One is an electronic music producer based in England. Over the course of his career his music has ranged from driving futuristic electro of his early EPs to more deep and experimental ambient electronica of his Tau Sagittarii releases. His output has gradually become more conceptual with works such as 2012's Natural Phases which focuses on down tempo stripped down low-fi beats with wave formed harmonics. 2015's Former Self consisting of intricate and a slowly building hypnosis of synth sequences.

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.

During the early 1990s I studied Mathematics and Computer Science. The world wide web was still largely text-based and mostly empty. Today things are obviously different, though I still thoroughly enjoy art, design, cinema and music in all its forms. I have traveled all over the world for nearly two decades, visiting just over 140 countries. Japan is my favorite. All of this I attempt to incorporate into my music and art.

Dear listeners
As a child, my dream was to become a fireman.  While waiting for my dream to come true I spent 
most of my  time sketching, drawing and listening to sound's and music .  At school I used to draw even in my copybooks and 
wherever I found an empty space.
When I left school I joined the army and served for three years in a combat unit.  All this time, 
during my army service, I was drawing  recording sounds whenever I could.
I never thought that my art will become so important and a center issue in my life. I realized that I 
have to explore and widen my knowledge in the field. Therefore I decided to study in an Israeli 
college for fine arts Faculty of Arts - Hamidrasha.
As I graduated I took a position of an art teacher and for10 years I was teaching people with 
special needs.
During the years i exhibit my art work in several galleries and alternative spaces.
I look at my art as a tool to discover and explore the greatness and mystery of life.

I hope that this brief description will enlighten your interest.
Sincerely, 
Oded  Berghaus
