Very nice - I think your additions and the original track mesh together perfectly

Took on this week's project at least in 'spirit' if not purist interpretation - maybe this is a remix not an OverVersion?
It was hard to see quite how to fit the kind of live instrumental playing I (shyly) do, over this track. But the straight stacked bass was like an empty road dead ahead; kind of beckoning. Just needed something for the top end...

Made 7 'voices' synched/derived from original track; using mostly filter resonance to stripe the arrangement, distortions to texture the voices, delay lines/gating to set up pulsing rhythms and reverberation to get feedback sustain. Settled them all into a rough agreement, then ran the track live while manipulating the mix&balance for recording.

Disquiet Junto Project 0173: Over Version
Do an “over” rather than a “cover” of a pre-existing track.

In other words, create a palimpsest of the source material. These are the steps for this project:

Step 1: Download the Hermético track “Daisy Daisy (A Blinding White Light Remix)” from the InoQuo netlabel at this URL:

https://archive.org/download/inoquo068/01hermetico-daisy-daisyABWL-remix.mp3

You can read up on the release at this page:

http://www.inoquo.com/release.php?&id=68

Step 2: Listen to the track straight through.

Step 3: Record yourself playing on top of the original.

Step 4: Upload your track to the Disquiet Junto group on SoundCloud.

Step 5: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Deadline: This assignment was made in the evening, California time, on Thursday, April 23, 2015, with a deadline of 11:59pm wherever you are on Monday, April 27, 2015.

Length: The length of your finished work should be the length of the original, 5:39, or slightly longer.

Upload: Please when posting your track on SoundCloud, only upload one track for this assignment, and include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto. Photos, video, and lists of equipment are always appreciated.

Title/Tag: When adding your track to the Disquiet Junto group on Soundcloud.com, please include the term “disquiet0173-overversion” in the title of your track, and as a tag for your track.

Download: Set your track as downloadable, and allowing for attributed remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution).

Linking: When posting the track, please be sure to include this information:

не спеша наносят чертежи
по которым мы сверяем жизнь
траектории охотников ведут
за добычу почитая труд

поздней ночью
заболочена
местность
засекречена
чем-то 
озабочена
вечность
обеспечена

Чертежи / blueprints (with Somebody Bo)

This is my first attempt to contribute to this Disquiet Junto project thing.  This week's project was to take two piano compositions by Nils Frahm, called "Do" and "Re", and remix them together.  Modifying the samples was allowed, but no new sounds could be added.

I decided to try doing something interesting as quickly as I could, with as little care as I could handle.  I threw the tracks into Ableton Live, sliced them into sample grids, and pitched several of the samples down in a haphazard manner, not paying attention to which i was choosing to modify.

Each composition was in its own track.  "Do" got a nice big load of reverb on it, plus a bit of treatment from Live's Beat Repeat plugin.  "Re" had 3 effects paths.  Path 1 filtered out all but some of the higher frequencies and added a HP filtered delay, path 2 had downsampling and LP filtering, and path 3 had a gated Beat Repeat.  Both tracks were sent a bit to a Send channel with heavy compression, "Re" was sent through another Send channel for a clean signal, and then everything was compressed a bit more.  I think compression is the coolest thing ever and I use it as much as I can because it makes me look cool, like smoking cigarettes.

This was all set up in a manner so I could press play and it could just keep going forever.  I guess that's what some folks call "generative".  I set an audio track to listen to the Master channel and armed it to record.  When I started recording, I discovered that I forgot to set it to NOT send audio back to the Master channel, and therefore got some crazy feedback.  I decided to just leave it be, and messed with the channel's amplitude to control the feedback.
