Part 2 of a 3 part Disquiet Junto collaboration.

I loved the grooving drum track created last week by creaturesOnce. I added a bass line in Ableton, in F minor and B♭ minor, letting the structure of the drum track lead the way. It's ready for someone to play a mid to high range melody or chord jam on top.

For this second part of the three-part Junto, I chose the sparse bassline by @seramind - and added a flute-like sound made using pink noise through a phaser and with a slow attack fed into Rings, plus a bit of a background drone which is also processed through a spring reverb, a BBD, and clouds to add some grit and warble.  I panned my parts mainly right (with some echoes and reverb adding a little to the left field) and then extended seramind's part and panned it slightly to the right for balance. There should be plenty of space in the middle for part three! :-)

The Assignment: Record the second third of an asynchronous trio.
The first step to this assignment was selecting a track from last weeks submissions. I decided on a track by Paul Reiners (https://soundcloud.com/paul-reiners-1). Paul's tracks are for me probably the most instantly recognisable of the regular participants of Disquiet Junto. And while I think our approaches to music are probably very different, they never fail to bring a smile to my face.
So it was a joy to work with the rhythmic track he made: https://soundcloud.com/paul-reiners-1/magic-number-disquiet0525?si=87c5b7222b0f41449e5d58c06d3266db&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing.
Since the idea is that the track can be used for the third part of this Junto, my main challenge was to not make the track too full for someone to add on to. What I decided on was to re-use Paul's rhythmic pattern, but now as the basis for a more melodic layer.

Disquiet Junto Project 0527: Magic Number (3 of 3)

The Assignment: Complete an asynchronous trio begun by two other musicians.

Step 1: This week’s Disquiet Junto project is the third in a sequence that encourages and rewards asynchronous collaboration. This week you will be adding music to a pre-existing track, which you will source from the previous week’s Junto project (disquiet.com/0526). Note that you are finishing a trio — you’re creating the third part of what two previous musicians began. Please keep this in mind.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record an original piece of music, on any instrumentation of your choice, as a complement to a pre-existing track. First, however, you must select the piece of music to which you will be adding your own music. There are tracks by numerous musicians to choose from. The majority are in this playlist:

https://soundcloud.com/disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0526 2

And additional tracks appear in the discussion:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0526-magic-number-2-of-3/

Step 3: Record a piece of music, roughly the length of the piece of music you selected in Step 2. Your track should complement the piece from Step 2, and it should be placed dead center between the left and right stereo channels. When composing and recording your part, do not alter the original piece of music at all. To be clear: the track you upload won’t be your piece of music alone; it will be a combination of the track from Step 2 and yours.

Step 4: Also be sure, when done, to make the finished track downloadable, because it may be used by someone else in a subsequent Junto project.

Step 5: As with last week, you can contribute more than one track this week. You can do up to two total. If you choose to do a second, you should preferably try to use a duet track that no one else has used yet. The goal is for many as people as possible to benefit from the experience of being part of an asynchronous collaboration. After a lot of detailed instruction, that is the spirit of this project.

Eight Important Steps When Your Track Is Done:

Step 1: Include “disquiet0527” (no spaces or quotation marks) in the name of your tracks.

Step 2: If your audio-hosting platform allows for tags, be sure to also include the project tag “disquiet0527” (no spaces or quotation marks). If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to subsequent location of tracks for the creation of a project playlist.

Step 3: Upload your tracks. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your tracks.

Step 4: Post your track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0527-magic-number-3-of-3/

Step 5: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process.

Step 6: If posting on social media, please consider using the hashtag #DisquietJunto so fellow participants are more likely to locate your communication.

Step 7: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Step 8: Also join in the discussion on the Disquiet Junto Slack. Send your email address to marc@disquiet.com for Slack inclusion.

Disquiet Junto Project 0527: Magic Number (3 of 3)
The Assignment: Complete an asynchronous trio begun by two other musicians.

After finishing my first virtual trio of disquiet0527 I went on listening to the duo tracks.

When I arrived at https://soundcloud.com/daniel-diaz/about-the-sun by  https://soundcloud.com/daniel-diaz, based on https://soundcloud.com/melondruie/cold-sun-disquiet0525 by https://soundcloud.com/melondruie, I was instantly drawn to it.

I started improvising some motives on the first evening and nothing fitted. DeDe had already added so much life to melondruies already hypnotic track, my contribution seemed simply pathetic and poor. So I buried the idea of this trio, decided to sell my musical instruments and watched Netflix.

The day after the cold sun shined and I tried it again – and somehow with a lot of improvised things and a lot of snipping work I think it’s endurable.

Here I added a Spitfire Audio LABS London Atmos (2 on the Plaform) track and a bass track with a patch on the  KarmaFX software modular. These were sidechained with the original recording and passed through a couple of wave folders to give them grit.
