Summer Night ( Naviarhaiku 479 )

“SchPCTR” is an acronym of „Schönberg“ and „spectrality“. It is based on one of my favorite pieces by Arnold Schönberg, the "Begleitmusik für eine Lichtspielszene" from 1929. It was a music for a film that never existed, thus an imaginary media piece. In the last third of the piece, the harmonium plays a series of sustained chords. I stretched these chords extremely and permuted them using the twelve-tone scale of the piece. In the course of the piece, the higher spectral components of the sounds increase continuously, thus becoming increasingly noisy at the end. The twelve-tone series was also the basis for the melodic elements that developed from the preceding figurations. Finally, the whole construct was once again "painted over" improvisationally.

Building on @wasabicube's https://soundcloud.com/wasabicube/snake-eyes-disquiet0592 (which in turn built on @encym's https://soundcloud.com/encym/the-loneliest-number-disquiet0591)- picked this as I really enjoyed the result of the collaboration between these two - some lovely atmosphere and room to explore

Used this as an opportunity to explore glitchy percussion processing with Beads, tried to slow it down and space things out enough to not drown out the original elements.

disquiet0593 - III (feat. wasabicube and encym)

Disquiet Junto Project 0593: The Charm
The Assignment: Record the second third of an asynchronous trio.

Please note: While this is the third part of a three-part project sequence, you can participate in one, two, or all three of the parts, which have occurred over the course of three consecutive weeks.

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/0592 7). 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:

It was an interesting balancing act, to add something fresh while still leave enough space for the original material to breathe.

This is my 2nd iteration.
Initially, I wanted to just record a drum part but wasn’t satisfied with the end result.
I wanted something more subtle.

So for the 2nd iteration, I came up with a process that allowed me to explore a few of my current interests at the same time. Probably that’s why I was willing to give this piece so much attention. Hm…

Below is a somewhat detailed description of the process and context.
It’s long & detailed, because I wanted to capture a few thoughts while they’re still fresh.

Context:

earlier this week, I studied interviews with Nils Frahm about his current improvised live concerts (How I Play Live: Nils Frahm | DJMag.com). My take-away for me was that playing all parts by hand (e.g. not relying on quantized sequencers) is a part of his organic sound that I like so much.
That motivated me to play keyboard a lot more - mostly piano & electric piano sounds with a touch of tape delay effect - and discover that this is currently my favorite thing to do, musically.

yesterday, I repaired the broken switch of the audio input preamp on my Buchla Easel, and my mind was naturally wondering about how to employ it in the next projects…

earlier today, I read an interview with Biosphere (In the studio with Biosphere | Headphone Commute) - another artist whose sound I like a lot.
I liked the idea of processing samples of acoustic instruments (he mentions sampling classical music) through synths/filters/etc.

yesterday, I found the perfect reverb effect pairing for the Easel - a modulated space reverb pedal.

All of the above coming together to form the idea for a process.

Frugal3ty feat Marc Eisenschink and encym [disquiet0593]

With https://soundcloud.com/mikey_a/tete-a-deux-disquiet0593, https://soundcloud.com/encym/tete-a-tete-disquiet0592 and https://soundcloud.com/andreas-kitzmann-27370936/disquiet0591.

All three source tracks loaded onto Radio Music, stepping between the first second and third iterations randomly. Processing in two parts, one steady pulsing gates, one slower envelopes into a granular processor. Some editing and ambience added in Live.

 Shariful Islam pres. Midnight Mirage- Medic 

Shariful Islam introduces his evocative new alias Midnight Mirage to the world with the release of Medic, a deeply moving focus track released on the picturesque label. Rooted in minimal piano melodies and guided by a slow, cinematic arrangement, Medic radiates emotional depth and quiet intensity. With haunting vocals performed by Shariful himself, the track captures the essence of healing, loss, and resilience—infused with a profound sense of deep soul. This release marks not just a new musical chapter but a vulnerable and heartfelt artistic expression that lingers long after the final note.
