ABOUT || 
A little over a year ago I worked on a game project. It was really fun, and a very nice experience for me as a composer and as a sound designer. I thought it was a shame that the game never got further, because I was very happy with the music tracks that I had managed to concoct for it. Now I'm ready to "anonymise" it and release it as a part of my portfolio. 

The track is called "The Mystery of the Goddess", and it was supposed to be the music for the main menu of the game.

Disquiet Junto Project 0434: Beat Kit
The Assignment: Create music with beats crafted by fellow Junto participants.

Thanks to folks on the Disquiet Junto Slack for helping to plan this.

Step 1: As with the past five weeks, this week’s project is intended to encourage and reward collaboration. This project is the second in a sequence that began last week.

Step 2: The project is to create music using kits of beats created by other Junto participants last week. There are two ways to locate the beats. You can check out the llllllll.co discussion thread from the previous project:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0433-kit-bits/

Or you can check out the playlist from last week. Note that this playlist (1) only contains one track per participant (click through to each individual’s account to check out the full slate of beats) and (2) doesn’t include tracks that weren’t posted on SoundCloud. For those, you’ll need to look at the llllllll.co link directly above.

Step 3: Use one (or, if you elect to, more than one) of the sets of beats from last week to create one original piece of music. When posting your track, be sure to credit the beatmaker(s) whose work you employed.

Seven More Important Steps When Your Sample Kit Is Done:

Step 1: Include “disquiet0434

Naviar Records · Haiku #329: Creativity, / for which springtime light is lit / like fire in my mind


 



Ray considers himself more accomplished as a composer than a performer, though he most often plays each part of a composition onto a recorded MIDI track using a keyboard controller. He enjoys making his productions completely “in the box” and finds satisfaction in trying to make sure a trumpet or guitar part sound real even though they are virtual instruments played from a keyboard. While he would like nothing more than to collaborate with “real” instrumentalists in his work, he always wants to know if you think the articulation and sound could be more realistic in any part. Ray played trumpet from elementary school through graduation from high school.

He considers himself fortunate to be a teenager in the birth years of the Sequential Circuits SixTrak (Prophet 610) and the Roland JX-8P. These instruments brought to him the many colors of synthesis and all the possibilities of electronic music. When he discovered MasterTracks Pro for Commodore 64 and realized his SixTrak had one of the very first Musical Instrument Digital Interfaces, his electronic music journey launched in earnest.

What Ray loves most about Naviar Haiku is the freedom to pursue an idea freely to whatever end. Sometimes the poem feels like a soundtrack and other times it evokes jazz, dubstep, rock, or an ambient piece. Sometimes it evens starts as one and ends as another.

Ray participates in the Haiku challenge as Stull.
