Name: disquiet0698 by Andreas Kitzmann in Disquiet Junto Project 0698: Second Third
Duration: 2 min 48 s
Description: As usual, there is an abundance of fantastic pieces to collaborate with. I finally decided on Aaron Hofman's work, because there was something about its slightly off kilter ambience that seemed to suit the later spring rain that is settling in for a few days. I added just a bit of gritty drone, augmented with a bit of reverb to further set the mood.

Disquiet Junto Project 0698: Second Third

The Assignment: Record the second third of a trio.

There are two versions of the instructions for this week’s project — one very short, the other very long.

Very short version (about 25 words): Select a track from last week’s project (disquiet.com/0697), pan it to the left, and add your own line to the right, leaving room in the center for someone to eventually turn it into a trio.

Very long version (over 600 words) at disquiet.com/0698.

Deadline: Monday, May 19, 2025, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.

Synth & effects

Having worked with musicians who aren't always mindful of leaving space in their playing, I dedicate this piece to them. I drew upon that experience while creating this work.

Based on a piano performance by @leonclowes, I played an OB-E (thanks, Tom Oberheim & @gforce-software) over Leon’s piano. I was going for a streamlined version of something quiet by Ravel — a kind of synthetic tone poem. Both the piano and strings are fake, but hopefully there’s still room to build.

A bass track over @half-unusual 's groove.
I played electric bass guitar (maple fender jazz bass with a pick and mute and a crunchy amp) with an overdrive pedal and a “skidder” effect tweaked in real time.

#4193 92.44% 343 left): Jun.7, 2025: Before you were or any hearts to beat  (again, William Butler Yeats from May 22, 2025) 

“I never expected my heart to tremble so deeply”

In “before you were or any hearts to beat,” Chair House captures the ephemeral pulse arising from stillness, crystallizing it into notes. The transparent touch reminiscent of post-rain air gently caresses past memories. As the title suggests, this melody preserves the warmth of days when hearts still raced, instantly transporting listeners back to their former selves—where improvisational inspiration and meticulous sound design weave the unique Chair House soundscape.

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.
