One thing I'd like to remember to do throughout 2023 is to regularly remix the voices and noises in this song, maybe once or twice a month, and release every version as they're made.

A few years ago, a friend left me a voicemail, part of which is included here.  It was kind of a "performance art voicemail" for lack of a better term.  I saved the voicemail and have been altering and doing a "cut up technique" on it ever since.

While I regularly reuse certain ideas and loops in my work, I've never thought about doing it to such an extent.  It might be a fun idea to worry to it's natural conclusion.  I can't imagine that I would run out of ideas by February.  I'll add a calendar reminder and see what happens.

This Is A Burner Phone (disquiet0576)

"Think of something, recording-wise, you want to accomplish musically this year"

interpreted this on a more meta level with a resolution to listen more and interfere less - be it tweaking knobs, patching, etc. - here responding to the prompt with a 1hr session where I slowly added in elements, each time listening for ~3min without doing anything to the patch - starting with the most fundamental, a pure sine wave, then adding in an envelope, pitch, etc.

cut down these segments in the recording for the benefit of the listener to a more digestible length, along with an ambience recording by the window, an artifact of what was happening in the world outside at the exact same time

Disquiet Junto Project 0576: Casual Resolution
The Assignment: Get a musical New Year’s resolution out of the way.

Everytime I label or tag something "ambient" I think it's wrong: It's not casual enough, you can hardly listen to it on the side, you actually have to listen with your brain, it doesn't drone harmlessly enough, it's too intense and it's still too interesting(your opinion may differ and it may only be a problem of my interpretation of the "ambient" tag ;-).

So for this year I planned to make a couple of what I think may be "true ambient" tracks. One-hour sound baths during which you can work and also listen to on loop for a week. This is the first one, it started as a single scene in Ableton and was refined in Reaper. Main synth is Repro-5, which was on sale at Native Instruments and is really a nice piece of software.

Solid Steel (26th May) In Hour 1 we welcome Djrum to Solid Steel, a producer who has been turning heads since 2010 with his early productions on Smokin' Sessions, On The Edge and his Mountains EP on 2nd Drop Records. Some of his best mixes have been a soundtrack to an imaginary movie and it's no exception here, with music from Bjork, Randomer, Lurka, Gila, Colin Stetson, Kowton, Trus'me and Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto included to accompany a film in your mind. He told us;
"This mix has been conceived as a soundtrack to an imaginary movie. It differs from the kind of mix that i would do in a club, as the focus is more on creating an atmosphere or mood than it is about rhythmic drive."
