My contribution to Magic Number 2 of 3 for J. Benjamin Niemi's January 21 Look Again. I ran his track through Mutable Beads and did three live takes manipulating the Density, Time, and Size by hand, then editing out what I didn't like. His original track is on the left, my track is on the right.

@DeDe made such a lovely contribution with "Unfinished" to kick off disquiet0525. I was inspired to play with it. I had various ideas including creating some kind of harmonic piping over the rich bass string sound, but ended up playing with the rhythmic structure of the piece. I'm not sure what could come next, but I hope someone gets inspired to complete the work.

I added more layers of Daniel's beautiful recording over the top of what he had performed and put together. A small number of clips were time stretched to vary the tempo more freely.

The Assignment: Record the second third of an asynchronous trio.

Step 1: This week’s Disquiet Junto project is the second in a sequence intended to encourage and reward asynchronous collaboration. This week you’ll be adding music to a pre-existing track, which you will source from the previous week’s Junto project (disquiet.com/0525). Note that you aren’t creating a duet — you’re creating the second third of what will eventually be a trio. Important: Leave space for what is yet to come.

"Record a short 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 leave room for an eventual third piece of music. "

Marc W said we could contribute more than one track this week, so I did 🙃

Played along to the left channel with a simple bass-y Plaits patch on my small modular skiff, just manual triggers and tweaking wet/dry Beads as I went along.

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.

Soundtrack that takes me back to my first day in school and all the adventures and excitement, the friends I made and some nerves too - immersive track to chill out too and hopefully enjoy!
