Yeah the time-based delay/reverb here is a nice touch

Vocazione / Berufung / Vocation - After a dear friend of mine who had a call. Made with ❤️ on a Synthstrom Deluge and an ASM Hydrasynth.

Disquiet Junto Project 0602: Choice Words
The Assignment: Make a piece of music that strives to express a specific word.

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0602-choice-words/63203/4

Step 1: Choose a word — either a favorite word, or one at random from a dictionary, a book your reading, or any such source.

Step 2: Compose a short piece of music that expresses that word as best you can. Perhaps it communicates an underlying concept, or follows the shape of the word when spoken, or utilizes it as an extremely short lyric. Come up with your own approach, which might be determined by the word, rather than imposed on the word.

I used an online random word generator and got the word: torch.
I thought of an old style wooden torch that would burn very brightly before slowly going out and tried to express that with this short track. Hope you like it! Have a good day.

I chose "gestalt" as my word for this challenge; the idea of the whole being more than the sum of its parts.

Three Sampleson Meta Pianos playing the same melody, only the first plays the melody over 4 bars, the second plays the same melody but over 3 bars, and the third plays it over 2.5 bars. As the rounds continue an echo and reverb are brought to bear.

"Chiaroscuro", italian for "light-dark" [...] is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition.
I chose the word "chiaroscuro" as I find this contrast appropriate to my mood of this period of my life.

For this patch I recorded bass into Morphagene and then effected it with a bit of Mimeophon. Then I added a lead line made with ARP2600 clone into Norns Pedalboard with Phaser and Resonator, then plugged into a preamp and then to QPAS for further effects. 
The bass plays harmonics A-D-A (7-7-5 frets) and G-D-G (5-5-3 frets).
I used G double harmonic scale (G-Ab-B-C-D-Eb-F#) for the lead voice.

Morphagene -> Mimeophon -> Out 2
Wogglebug Int Clock out -> Mimeophon Clock In
Maths Ch. 4 (Cycle) -> Morphagene R in (Pmin option on)

Arp out(osc1 and osc2 square out +filter+ar)-> Norns Pedalboard (Phaser + Resonator) -> preamp -> QPAS smile out -> Out 1
Preamp -> mult -> QPAS, Maths Ch. 1 In
Maths Ch. 1 out -> QPAS Freq 1 in
Maths Inv out -> QPAS Q In
