I've been meaning to get back into disquiet again, but meaning and doing are rather different things, so in the meantime I've mostly ... not.

this week's (and last week) really interested me. the instruction was “Add a thin foundational bed to beats of pin-prick audio”.  

I listened through last week's tracks to select one to work with, and landed on "skull pressure" by Detritus Tabu (https://soundcloud.com/detritus-tabu/skull-pressure-disquiet0215-tinyrhythms)
the near-random beat left lots of sonic room to play with.
I added a pad, piano, synth bass and a light beat - and with each of them I reduced EQ and applied effects that would remove sonic depth (bass, mid-range), to try to "thin" them out. I didn't want anything heavy, or that would weigh down the sound.

the end result is close to what I was hoping for.

I tinker with musical toys. sometimes they behave and sometimes they don't. sometimes they run and tell lies to their mom about what I called them. in the end we always make up and laugh about it.

I release music as colab; through collaborations; and by remixing/producing other artists’ music from my home studio in Toronto, Canada.

if you like what you hear, send me a message and perhaps we'll be able to collaborate on something. assuming I'm not too busy drinking. 

which has been known to happen.
