Love this track Angela Winter! You can get some free plays by using the free demo promotion from fanmajor, just google it.

this is ¶radio hummingbird’s contribution to this week’s disquiet junto with the serial number 0499. in short, the requirement for this contribution was to record a sound(scape)on top of a field recording as if it was originally part of it.

i have chosen a relatively recent field recording of mine, made in spring this year in rural franconia, germany. it hasn't been released otherwise until now and features a cacophony of birds and countryside sounds. played back within my little 100hp eurorack system, i created dense layers of synth soundscapes and drones on top of the prominently featured bird songs.

a daw or computers were only used for a little mastering in ableton live. easy.


please enjoy and listen loud.
:)

This is a response to Disquiet Junto Project 0499 — Out of a Landscape.

The base recording is https://freesound.org/people/daveincamas/sounds/45481/

For the "extra sound" it's itself resonating. I sent it through the Rings eurorack module using various notes and settings, manually providing modulations with the knobs, then I spliced the different takes together to form chords and drones; I even played a little melody on the rain sounds through rings. 

Apologies to anyone tired of the "rings sound".

Five minutes of wind and rain; precursor to a storm early on Monday morning. Overlaid is a sonicLAB Thermo, which undergoes various wave folds, EQ modulations, granular reversals and filtration throughout the track.

Disquiet Junto Project 0499: Out of the Landscape

The Assignment: Record a piece of music in which a sound emerges from a field recording. Add a subtle sound to a preexisting field recording of a soundscape, have that sound slowly gain prominence, and then let it disappear, leaving nothing but the original field recording behind at the end.

Jubilee Sparsity (disquiet0499)

I took a field recording from freesound user klankbeeld: https://freesound.org/people/klankbeeld/sounds/178374/

On top of this I layered an instrument which is built from a few different sound sources, the result is an eery chime at the attack, and a long drone following. This starts subtly, with the chimes almost blending into the recording, eventually with the drone becoming more prominent before fading out.

Strange Encounter [disquiet0499]

This track was created along the assignment of the Disquiet Junto Project 0499 (see below). The music conveys the feelings and thoughts emerging while travelling home on the train after a long working day.

The wonderful field recording from inside an ICE-train heard throughout the track was supplied by So0N here: https://freesound.org/people/So0N/sounds/538265/

Used an old field recording of mine, with the Tascam sat in the bird feeder in the garden, April 2020.  Drone sounds from my eurorack modular system emerging from this background.

PITP's 2023 End of Year Playlist

23 in 23' :: PITP's 2023 End of Year Playlist

The venerable Gayatri mantra is a meditation on spiritual light. It is considered to be the essence of all mantras; its purpose is to uplift human consciousness. 

The base of “Gayatri” is a field recording of me chanting 108 repetitions of this mantra during a dawn chorus outside my home in Carrboro, North Carolina. I transformed this field recording into an ambient soundscape suitable for playing during quiet work, meditation, yoga, bodywork, cloud-watching, daydreaming, stargazing, gardening, contemplation, and/or slipping into other worlds. 

Each time you play “Gayatri,” you are helping uplift all of human consciousness. 

We need this urgently and now. Please listen often and share it with your communities. I would be so grateful.

Wishing you all a peaceful, reflective holiday season.

With love and gratitude,
Angela
