Drone of Arc (disquiet0675)

Nothing like a good drone to pass a winter's day. My go to instruments for droning are the Arp 2600 and the Buchla Easel, both of which were tuned to the same pitch. I let them drone on, playing with the resonance, timbre and filter controls as time went by. A third channel was recorded with the two routed through the Cosmos and the "cinema everything" patch on the Zoia. Once in Logic, further effects were added, notably Arturia's Motion and Fragments, along with a lot of panning and faders going up and down. The result is, well a drone, best heard on headphones while under a blanket.

Recorded, mixed & mastered on 05 Dec 2024 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa. 

Process notes - I started by working in VCV Rack, capturing a 7 minute stereo recording. I pulled this into Ableton Live and layered the track six times, each track being treated differently. I mixed/mastered on the same night. 

Tools used 
VCV Rack - VCV-native modules, Vult Bleak, Surge XT Modern VCO, Frozen Wasteland Seriously Slow LFO, BogAudio VCF & LFO, JW-Modules Clock, Aaron Static’s Chord CV, Daniel Davies’ Sequel_8, Sckitam Waveguide Delay, Squinky Labs Stairway filter. 
Ableton Live - native Live devices and Cycling 74’s multiharmonizer

Performing A Choke (disquiet0675)

In response to the disquiet junto assignment: Record a drone that goes from simple to complex to simple.

Loosly based on Saba Makam. Combination of Basille and Surge synths with clarinets and horns form BBC orchestra (Spitfire audio)

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0675: Arc of the Drone.
The assignment: Record a drone that goes from simple to complex to simple.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0675 discussion thread on Lines:

Tried to create a ambient drone that subtly transitioned from simple to complex to simple. Hopefully that came across in this piece.  

Created in Ableton Live using Slate + Ash Primaries/Strings, Madrona Labs Sumu, and Amazing Noises Grain Scanner soft instruments. Delay in Ableton along with Phonolyth Cascade reverb were the effects used. Image by Pawel Czerwinski via Unplash.

**Disquiet Junto Project 0675: Arc of the Drone**  
The Assignment: Record a drone that goes from simple to complex to simple.

Step 1: You may, yourself, be experienced recording drone music, or you may never have recorded any. You may not even be sure what drone music is, in which case read up a bit. Not matter your experience and familiarity, please give some thought as to what constitutes drone music.

Step 2: Now think about what makes a drone simple and what makes a drone complex.

Step 3: Now record a piece of drone music that begins simple, gets complex, and then gets simple again. And note: The simple drone at the end needn’t necessarily be the same sort of drone with which the piece opens.
