I love the process, great idea - thinking of a matrix mixer approach as well

Really like this particular section. Overall, a great approach with the effect chaining. It really gives the impression of the sounds spilling out from their original source. The treatments themselves are very diverse and expressive too! I really nice progression throughout the track.

Disquiet Junto Project 0691: Un-Ravel
The Assignment: Make a recording of a string quartet fall apart.

Step 1: Download the first movement of the Ravel string quartet at this URL: https://bit.ly/un-ravel

The original source is the Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/3-capet-sq-col-d-15057-60-ravel-1928-mov-3/

Step 2: Listen to the track closely.

Step 3: Create a new piece of music by employing the provided recording as source material. The goal for your piece is that it should make the Ravel sound like it is falling apart — that is, like it is unraveling, or un-Ravel-ing.

Deadline: Monday, March 31, 2024, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.

halF unravelleD [disquiet0691]

Disquiet 0691 gave us an audio file of the first movement of a Ravel piece for string quartet, and asked us to "unravel" it.

To bring this nightmarish piece to life, I started with a Frankenstein arrangement that came in around 3:30 in length: some close listening, editing, and assembly of the sections to my liking. Next I created 6 auxiliary channels, each with a specific effect chain, its own tape delay, and a carefully tuned distortion via Chromaglow. To prepare to perform, I routed the sends on the single audio track to each of the 6 channels, assigned to six knobs on my Nektar Panorama control surface. The recorded performance consisted of mixing mulitple sends in realtime— I wish I had thought to record that to video.

The source piece is in the public domain and can be found on the Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/3-capet-sq-col-d-15057-60-ravel-1928-mov-3/?utm_source=DisquietJunto&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=disquiet-junto-project-0691-un-ravel

Das Chaos-Quartett (disquiet0691)

I selected the 4th movement of the quartet, chopped it up and remixed it to a stereo track. Then, by means of many adjustments and various effects, I converted it to a modern atonal/microtonal composition.

Ravel Revamped (disquiet0691)

Unraveling Smoke (disquiet0691)

UN GAUCHO – solo bass

A simple, heartfelt solo bass piece — part of a series of intimate instrumental moments I play live or record at home for fun.
Five-string bass (high C), light effect pedals — just melody, warmth, and a great instrument.

Thanks for listening!

Frayvalence

I create original electronic, postpunk, and experiential music from my studio in Chicago. The Hard Times described my work as "creepy, haunted, but also a little bit uplifting." Prolific.

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.
