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

And additional tracks appear in the discussion:

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

(Note that it’s possible another track or two will pop up in or disappear from that playlist and discussion. Things are fluid on the internet.)

To select a track, you can listen through all those and choose one, or simply look around and select, or you can come up with a random approach to sifting through them.

Note: It’s fine if more than one person uses the same original duet track as the basis for their trio.

It is strongly encouraged that you look through the above discussion on the Lines forum, because many tracks include additional contextual information there.

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.

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

with paul-beaudoin & morgulbee 
My recording over two A minor drones

based on https://soundcloud.com/paul-beaudoin/disquiet0526-v2-a-minor-drone
that was based on https://soundcloud.com/morgulbee/a-minor-drone-disquiet0525


I played my Indian Harmonium and punctuated each end of stanza with a single upright bass note.

Recitativo Lamentoso Quasi Requiem (disquiet0527) with paul-beaudoin & morgulbee

Based on https://soundcloud.com/undermulden/lamps-with-nate-trier-magic-number-2-of-3-disquiet0526
track is developed from Nate Trier's wonderful https://soundcloud.com/triermusic/baridrone-disquiet0525

I played an electric bass part (harmonics imitating the original track's crystal drop melodies). I wasn't happy so I added a rhythmic picked bass part (that I edited afterwards)
Still not happy I performed a solo on my electric bass but it wasn't quite working. So reversed it. But still not happy I recorded a fourth track, adding a Twin Peaks style bass.
So I ended up recording 4 tracks on the very same instrument....not a good clue.
So I don't think I did nothing good to the beautiful original. I may revisit this.

Atonal Unfinished Trio (disquiet0527)

Based on parts two and three of Disquiet Juno 0525 / 0526 recorded by  Sternklang and SliverSounds here:  https://soundcloud.com/sternklang/now-positive-too-with-sliversounds-now-positivedisquiet0526, this is the third controbution to the series of collaborative recordings as outlined here: https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0527-magic-number-3-of-3/52448

For this contribution, Juno-60 swells and DX-7 twinkles were added to the mix, hopefully lifting us all somewhere closer to the stars.

The second of two contributions to Disquiet Junto 0527, this time using material recorded by per33 and Zedakh over the last fortnight and uploaded to https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0526-magic-number-2-of-3/52210/72

An extemporised riff on an MFB Dominion Club was added to their excellent groundwork, the results being run through a Space Echo emulation VST just to give it some sparkle, and a little hint of Valhalla Supermassive for some shine too.

The Assignment: Complete an asynchronous trio begun by two other musicians.
Based on the earlier works of Morgulbee and Krakenkraft
Morgulbee – A-minor-drone-disquiet0525
Winterer – Droneminer-disquiet0526

I missed the deadline on this one.
The photograph by August Sander is one of the seeds that lead to the song. I know it from the book About Looking by John Berger.
Much more to be said, but also easily too much.
