This is a little etude of a technique I've been playing with lately, in which I take a song and convolve it with a short, pitched impulse response. I've found that songs with relatively little harmonic and rhythmic change and very compressed dynamics work well. Bachata is a great genre for this. 
For this track, I took the song "Bajame el pantalón" by Neidy Molaco and convolved it with a recording of a synthesized guitar string. I then layered duplicates of the result in different tracks, EQing and applying a few other effects.

Bajame [disquiet0139-techtechnique]

Performance by Patchwork (Noa Even and Stephen Klunk), 
Spectrum NYC, June 12, 2016

Program Note:
When I was a teenager, I had a fascination with progressive rock, a genre that emphasizes technical precision and rhythmic complexity. Often the eclectic and wildly contrasting sections that comprise its long form songs are stitched together with short interludes. These are frequently unrelated to the sections they bridge, but nevertheless have recurring tactics: rhythmic unisons, repeating and gradually lengthening melodies, and sudden, incongruent silences. "Interstitch" expands on these tropes, creating a whole piece out of transition material inspired by "prog rock" classics.
