So nice. Love the moments of restraint and wisps of sound trail away before things start blooming again. Thanks heaps for using my track here!

brilliant refractunes splintering and catching beautiful shimmering waves.....punchtuations  of a gentile bass thuds for seeding melodies and immediately sprutting from it +++++

Simply devine! Love the repeating washes of reverb.

Disquiet Junto Project 0610: Speed Limit Pt 2
The Assignment: Combine two or more pre-existing 60 BPM tracks into something new — at half the speed.

Step 1: In the previous Disquiet Junto project, participants recorded a variety of tracks at a standard pace of 60 BPM.

Step 2: Select two or more tracks from the provided ones, slow them to half their original pace — that is, to 30 BPM — and use editing techniques to combine them into one new piece of music.

=============

Track notes:

It was difficult not to reflect on Steve Roden this morning in Adelaide. So inevitably my thoughts were concentrated very much on his wonderful body of work, especially his aesthetic of 'lowercase' music. Lawrence English put it so well last night in a FB post that Steve Roden would "cherish  the minor, the incidental, the unexpected, the hushed"

In this spirit, I used tracks from @henklass and @leonclowes and reformatted them to 30bpm. I used two segments of henklass's kick pulse and waves of noise/random notes and layered these with leonclowes meander of resonant, sustained tones. Against this, I used an archived recording of my own (some radio static) and pitched this so that it harmonised with the other two audio sources.

I experimented with the volume levels until I achieved an equilibrium of sorts. Then I put the bounced audio file onto my phone and took it downstairs to my kitchen. With our Bluetooth speaker atop the toaster (its usual spot), I placed an ambisonic recorder on a mug next to the sink. With the recorder running, I then went to the adjoining laundry room and started the track's playback from the Bluetooth speaker.

Along with the quiet ambience of the kitchen space, this morning there were the traces of stormy weather from overnight, so gusts of wind were brushing through the trees in our courtyard. Inside, the fridge hummed gently, and to my surprise, the stronger notes from leonclowes track resonated the interior of the toaster that the Bluetooth speaker was positioned on top of.

[Disquiet_Junto_0610] The Ongoing Moment - for Steve Roden (30 bpm)

For this assignment I used my own submission from last week paired with a.a.miles Key Limit which then morphs into Michele Isoni's Chirper which is finally joined by Sunbear's lovely submission. All the parts where brought into ableton, slowed down by half and then warped back to their original pitch. After it was all sequenced I then used a bunch of puremagnetic effects to give the whole thing that worn out vibe (which also resulted in some strange drop outs and flutters which i left)

Many thanks to all that got involved, so many interesting takes on the assignment!

Blues In Two Phases [disquiet0610]

Many thanks to the relevant artists for the three tracks I used. I downloaded them simply because they are around the same length:
undermulden - Sleep Spindles
wasabicube - chwe deg
Johanthan Zorn - Disquiet0609 60bpm
After changing the tempo as required, extensive editing & a touch of reverb, this is the result.

Plucking Blink Wink) (disquiet0610)

@tristan_louth_robins' Refactored Drift clicked with me, as well as @krakenkraft's Catnip in 60bpm and @Gianantonio_Patella's salience inferiore. While the latter two tracks build a rhythmic foundation, the guitar does the rest. Tons of reverb, new toys from Unfiltered Audio (Silo's great). To stick to the slow tempo, there are gaps to reduce speed. Drive safely.

Slow Blink [disquiet0610]

This track is a rework of the wonderful tracks https://soundcloud.com/noodletwister/plucks-pad-disquiet0609 by @noodletwister and https://soundcloud.com/henklasschuit/speed-limit-pt-1-disquiet0609 by @henklasschuit inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0609: Both tracks were slowed down from 60 to 30 BPM and combined using different effects to create this track.
