Homer Mix (disquiet0503)

This was fun! A challenge to create a track purely from distorted voices. I had a bunch of vocal samples laying around so I thought, why not?

I used all inbuilt Ableton effects; starting with the whispers, reversed, and adding a filter delay. 
Then the 'drums' - a chopped up sample, with 'loop off beat' and 'brute compression' added. This was hard to mix!
The more natural 'ooo' has a phaser (phased and confused)
The glitchy, trebl-y squeak and the deep bass are that same 'ooo' transposed way up/way down.

Disquiet Junto #0503: Sing Song

Disquiet Junto Project 0503: Sing Song. The Assignment: Record a song using only your voice transformed beyond recognition.

I used already recorded samples of my voice (originally made for a "voice beatbox"). All voice transformation was done in Caustic for Android, mostly via Speed, Looping, Filters, Bitcrushers. Remix with some FX in Reaper.

Hypnagogia (disquiet0503)

Vocalizing and processing audio that initially started as a guitar riff, that I tried to vocally harmonize, then processed with various plugins.

Sinny: voices processed to oblivion

For the week ending August 23, the prompt was to create a song only using the human voice, albeit processed beyond recognition. I had been considering this song approach for a while, but the prompt solidified my decision to bring the idea to fruition.

To start things off, I set the BPM to 112 in 3/4 time. This was to provide some sort of guidance and not meant to serve any use after recording the first track. I recorded a series of grunts to a metronome as I wanted some sort of pulse throughout.

Before proceeding to record anything else, I experimented with various effects that would help mask my voice. I ended up going with some whammy, a phaser with a high sweep ceiling, various filters, and a generous amount of delay, all panned slightly to the left. A similar track was later recorded with right panning to balance things out.

Other elements include vocal sweeps, exhales, squeals, and muffled melodic murmurings. One early idea was to recite a corrupted synopsis of the Tokyo Olympics, but this was abandoned by the first day of recording. Some splicing and pitch shifting was conducted to add more sonic variety.

This account was made specifically for Disquiet Junto series tracks. The track was started on August 19th and completed on August 23rd.

SOULSIGNAL (Slowed + Reverb)

I am a human animal & through my creative practices seek to connect to the flow of life to let my innate intuition guide me before my logical mind controls me. To undo or at least side-step some of my cultural conditioning so the spirits of the place I am in can express through me. This  forest I am in, the rock I sit on beside this stream, the footpath below my feet, this vast planet we all live upon. The natural world so often unconsidered, ignored, I aim to give it some voice.
