Love this!  I thought there was something wrong with my computer...

Using sustained tones and the spatial components of music to create an immersive sound experience for the listener. Melodies and harmonies occur through resonances and auditory illusions. It would be wonderful, if music had healing power. I hope it has.

This track makes use of a stylised drawing of the word 'unusuaL', which is used as a filter on an original track. You can see exactly how the filter operates in the video @ https://youtu.be/RV0lPDF63oA

Disquiet Junto Project 0602: Choice Words
The Assignment: Make a piece of music that strives to express a specific word.

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0602-choice-words/63203/4

Step 1: Choose a word — either a favorite word, or one at random from a dictionary, a book your reading, or any such source.

Step 2: Compose a short piece of music that expresses that word as best you can. Perhaps it communicates an underlying concept, or follows the shape of the word when spoken, or utilizes it as an extremely short lyric. Come up with your own approach, which might be determined by the word, rather than imposed on the word.

I used an online random word generator and got the word: torch.
I thought of an old style wooden torch that would burn very brightly before slowly going out and tried to express that with this short track. Hope you like it! Have a good day.

Torch (disquiet 0602)

An electronic composition, sounds created in Pure Data. Shoogly = unsteady, unstable, uncertain, shaky, wobbly.

Saturated (disquiet0602)

I chose "gestalt" as my word for this challenge; the idea of the whole being more than the sum of its parts.

Three Sampleson Meta Pianos playing the same melody, only the first plays the melody over 4 bars, the second plays the same melody but over 3 bars, and the third plays it over 2.5 bars. As the rounds continue an echo and reverb are brought to bear.

This is a composition based on the letters of the names of my children. I rendered a distinctive sample to each letter and composed a piece of music from these samples. They are mainly field recordings, but there are some synth parts too. I dedicate this piece to my children.
