My Disquiet Contributions 2014

not much to say, found a suitable middle eastern percussion set, a synth sound and added a couple of effects.

Palmyra Palmyra [disquiet0108-freebassel]

decided to jot down a certain amount of places over the track where I wanted to place my sounds. After doing that I processed a theremin-ish synth sound, adding distortion, compression and delay. More on this 109th Disquiet Junto project (“Insert musical objects into an urban soundscape.”) at:

Three little Flangers [disquiet0136-thricederivative]

Decided to record a couple of Theremin layers, applying a few filters and effects to each. Added some vintage percussiveness from a TR-808 soundpack, and a couple of extra keys from an old lounge piano library.

Thereminging [disquiet0137-oldtimeelectronica]

Went for a chiming sound from a bicycle, then recorded a few layers of soundscapes around that theme. Placed some percussiveness on the background to counter all the light tones of the chiming.

Chime on [disquiet0138-videosonicvoid]

Recorded my own garden's irrigation noise during a fine summery evening. Did a bit of compression and reverb and not much else.

Not A Colonic Irrigation [disquiet0147 - slightnoise]

I love William Gibson. I went for the glum ambient sound, which I achieved by recording some electronic percussion tracks and play with the effects to fill the emptiness.

Don't call me anymore [disquiet0148-peripherallistening]

Decided to go for a brazilian percussive track, as the Carnival rehearsals are starting in full swing this side of the equator. Recorded each percussion line separately, and mixed them all up. Applied a few filters here and there, but only to enhance the sound.

Rei Momo [disquiet0153-groovelock]

Used the following tracks:

1) Constant Oregos https://soundcloud.com/purling/constant-oregos-disquiet0153-groovelock (by Kent Sparling https://soundcloud.com/purling)
2) G TOWN https://soundcloud.com/calamusk/g-town-disquiet0153-groovelock?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0153 (by Calamusk https://soundcloud.com/calamusk)

Decided these two worked together, not by alternating but by playing them at the same time. Included a couple of extra layers of precussive noise and some filters.
