Wenu Wenu (Where is she?) English translation lyrics:
Where is she? Where is she?
The one who I loved where is she?
Where is she? Where is she?
The one who I loved where is she?
And with her delicate mouth
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
And with her delicate mouth
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
Tell me how are you my love?
You, the one with a beautiful good heart
Tell me how are you my love?
You, the one with a beautiful good heart
You didn’t want me to suffer, you, my precious beloved
You didn’t want me to suffer, you, my precious beloved
Where is she? Where is she?
The one who I loved where is she?
Where is she? Where is she?
The one who I loved where is she?
How are you doing my treasure? You’re always on my mind
How are you doing my treasure? You’re always on my mind
Though you’re torturing me I can never forget you
Though you’re torturing me I can never forget you
Where is she? Where is she?
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
And with her delicate mouth
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
Where is she? Where is she?
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
Where is she? Where is she?
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
And with her delicate mouth
Who kills with her beautiful eyes

UNICAT

3 Tracks grabbed live from the Stoch 4 Lunetta instrument. Drum track was run first against a sparse metronome. Two melodic lines dubbed over; once the loop point had been fixed. Chromaticism was determined by the native trilling of the Stoch. Final mix balanced out in PC software; just light filtering and pan/levels.

The Stoch generously delivered structure without prior deliberation - it was challenging for this purpose to achieve interaction with the triggers to form a plausible tight loop from the percussive bursts. The two instrumental tracks are bound together by switch selected scale distributions. Their triggering was manipulated to hook motifs into the phrasing accents of the base percussion loop.

Axial [disquiet0153-groovelock]

Used my own track - Axial - already randomly generated and waiting to come to terms with. Picked up  Steve Moshier's — No Cause for Alarm (disquiet0153-groovelock) - a solid contrast of speed/density and sat well harmonically. Stacked the loops in PC sequencer, with some re-pitching into bass and scattering into higher registers. Braided a long echoing software synth across to hold it all together and mimic Steve's voicing.

Spoiled for choice with so many great samples ... used a couple more as meat for effects/filters and sprinkled them through. Thanks to:

The Assignment: Create a track from two locked grooves.

This week’s Disquiet Junto project builds on last week’s. Last week, 67 different musicians uploaded as many locked grooves. This week we’ll make new music atop the locked grooves. Here are the steps. Note that there are some options:

Step 1: Choose two locked grooves from the set at http://goo.gl/0s4WmM. You can accomplish this in several ways. You can choose random numbers between 1 and 67 and use those tracks, or you can just select the tracks you most want to work with. Note that most of the tracks should be set to allow, via Creative Commons, for non-commercial re-use. However, if you aren’t sure, please contact the musician to confirm.

Step 2: Make a new track alternating the two locked grooves for between one and two minutes.

Step 3: Use the track that resulted from step 2 as the foundation for a new piece of music. Transform it as you desire, which might include altering the foundational track and adding new material atop it.

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

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

Length: Your finished work should be between roughly 1 and 2 minutes long.

 


CoAxial [disquiet0154-grooveunlocked]

After a couple of failed experiments, decided to keep it simple and cadge around sampling of the melodic hints from the originals. Nuts and bolts sequencing, but set up the playback as if being run through 'shutters' at mismatched rates, so the coincidence varies. The Salamander version features as a highly fragmented&delayed background drift.

----------------------------------------------------------

Step 1: Download the following two tracks. The first is “Waiting…” by Yellow Salamand’r and the second is a reworking of it, titled “Waiting (A Yellow Salamander Re-hash),” by Colab.

https://soundcloud.com/yellow-salamandr-4-1/yellow-salamandr-4-waiting

https://soundcloud.com/colab/waiting-a-yellow-salamander-re-hash

Step 2: Create a new track that combines the two source tracks. 
Don’t add any new audio, though you can transform the source material as you wish.

Step 3: Upload the finished track to the Disquiet Junto group on SoundCloud.

Step 4: Listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Length: Your finished work should be between roughly 3 to 4 minutes long.

Tachistoson [disquiet0155 - Mixmatch]

OK, hope it doesn't stretch the rules too far... A year spent jamming tables in a SQL warehouse; did grow some vegetables, but no decent date ordered catalogue of audio projects. Synopsis? = calendar is represented here by 12 months detailed daily weather data from logging station at the end of the road, downloaded, stitched and mangled per DBA's professional manner. Pushed as series into Arduino controller, and spooled back out algorithmically as MIDI for recording. Approx. 5 sec each month.

As a 'journal' it reflects the spirit and experiences of the year, and summarisies the audio techniques I've mucked about with.

Disquiet Junto Project 0156: Audio Journal 2014
The Assignment: Create a sonic diary of the past year with a dozen five-second segments.

This week’s project is a sound journal, an audio history of the past year. You will select a different audio element to represent each of the past 12 months of 2014. You will then select one five-second segment from each of these audio elements. Then you will stitch these dozen five-second segments together in chronological order to form one single one-minute track. There should be no overlap or gap between segments; they should simply proceed from one to the next.

These audio elements will most likely be of music that you have yourself composed and recorded, but they might also consist of phone messages, field recordings, or other source material. These items should be somehow personal in nature, suitable to the autobiographical intention of the project; they should be of your own making, and not drawn from third-party sources.

When done, upload the finished track to the Disquiet Junto group on SoundCloud. Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Deadline: 11:59pm wherever you are on Monday, December 29, 2014.

Length: Your finished work should be 60 seconds long.

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.

Information: Please, when posting your track on SoundCloud, list the source of each of the 12 elements.

Title/Tag: When adding your track to the Disquiet Junto group on Soundcloud.com, please include the term “disquiet0156-audiojournal2014” in the title of your track, and as a tag for your track.

Download: It is preferable that your track is set as downloadable, and that it allows 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:

Meteorologic [disquiet0156 - Audiojournal2014]

A very pretty glass with curves made many harmonics as the ice went in. Took around 15 samples. A couple were reserved for waveform synthesis - the rest went straight onto a 'drum' track. From there it came together quickly.
Nothing but ice, glass and water.

-----------------------------------------------------
Disquiet Junto Project 0157: A Little Ice Music
The Assignment: Record the sound of ice in a glass and make something of it.

Happy new year! This week’s project is as follows:

Step 1: Please record the sound of an ice cube rattling in a glass, and make something of it.

Step 2: Upload the finished track to the Disquiet Junto group on SoundCloud.

Step 3: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Background: Longtime participants in, and observers of, the Disquiet Junto series will recognize this single-sentence assignment as the very first Disquiet Junto project, the same one that launched the series on the first Thursday of 2012. Revisiting it a year and two years later, on the first Thursdays of 2013 and 2014, provided a fitting way to begin the new year. Now, at the start of the fourth year of the Disquiet Junto, it is a tradition. A weekly project series can come to overemphasize novelty, and it’s helpful to revisit old projects as much as it is to engage with new ones. Also, by its very nature, the Disquiet Junto suggests itself as a fast pace: a four-day production window, a weekly habit. It’s beneficial to step back and see things from a longer perspective.

Deadline: 11:59pm wherever you are on Monday, January 5, 2015.

Length: The length of your finished work should be between one minute and four minutes.

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 “disquiet0157-icemusic2015” in the title of your track, and as a tag for your track.

Download: It is preferable that your track is set as downloadable, and that it allows for attributed remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution).

Hydra [Disquiet Junto Project 0157: A Little Ice Music]

After a few issues getting to the source, I finally found it elsewhere and downloaded it. As I was listening the first time through I instantaneously decided on vocals... I don't sing, so I went for a walk thinking about it. Then I thought of using a recording of my father reading one of his own poems... in order to make the poem fit the length of the original piece I tried a few things out. Ended up whit what you hear - the poem stretched and frozen by me in realtime using HourGlass - and as an ending; the poem as originally read with nothing done to it...

“disquiet0173-overversion” autobiographical object

**Production Notes**

What a rumbling fest this was! I had to tame the frequencies of the original material with an EQ, but there’s still a good deal of bass frequencies left. 

Duplicated the original twice, used Abletons transient detection for some "HiHats" and "Toms". I added a drum layer (FM Kick Drum, FM Glass Hit) for some rhythmic variations. 

After that the real fun began. I added the Rounds Reaktor ensemble and my newly purchased TC 303 clone ABL. Layed out some simple chords and a hook line. Then it was time to fiddle with the knobs!

Way too much happening here, but it was fun.

Scuba [disquiet0173-overversion]

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.
