Slow Version from XTC Wake Up from 1984;) Love it!

As ever, a wonderful, beautiful interpretation of the project brief. Love love love it...

Wonderful. The polyrhythms created by the bass make me think of a slowed down version of Reich's Electric Counterpoint-gorgeous work!

Sounds great ... not much more of a comment than that.

Some experimental tracks combining classical instruments, glitch & noise, samples, field recordings, electronica and treatments.

Winter waterfall a rock untouched by sunrise or sunset

by: Setsuko Nozawa

Inspired by the works of Bashō and Rinka Ōno, she started writing haiku in the 1930s, joined the magazine Shakunagein 1939, and later moved to Hama in 1946. Later in life, she dedicated herself fully to poetry and ikebana, and in 1971 she founded the haiku magazine Ran, later directed by Kōzaburō Wada.

Kaga no Chiyo-jo (1703–1775) was a haiku poet discovered by Kagami Shiko at a very young age. She became a Buddhist nun at 52 and wrote around 1,900 haiku in her lifetime. A highlight of her poetry career was presenting haiku to a Korean delegation in 1763, one of the first cultural exchanges of this kind.

Disquiet Junto Project 0272: Exoplanetary Intervals
The Assignment: Use music to express the relationships between planets.

Exoplanetary Ingredients:
Backround sound courtesy of NASA.
Electric Bass Guitar (Drake DIAZ CUSTOM5) 6 tracks
Synthesizer
Reverb and filters

Exoplanetary Recipe:
1-Download some background sounds from NASA’s site, to create the right ambience.
2-Record a click track with 2 harmonics (D+G) on El. Bass, playing a 5 beat pattern (five 1/4th notes)
3-Create a simple, not really earthy harmony: E7#9 – EbMaj7 – G/D, performed on a warm synth pad.
4-Play that harmony in 4 partswith short rhythmic notes (1/4th) with four  El.Basses.
5-Following Mark Lentczner’s excellent dissection on the TRAPPIST-1 Exoplanets: the ratios of the orbits are 8:5 , 5:3 , 3:2 (twice) and 4:3
So first harmony voice (bass1) performs 8 notes every 5 clicks, second harmony voice (bass2) perform its voice on 5:3 (5 notes every 3 clicks) etc.
6-Add a low bass part performing the tonics in a 3+2 beat pattern .
7-Add one instance of bFilter to each voice, play with its cutoff and drive.

It’s been a while since I don’t follow this “intellectual” modus-operandi instead of the usual “musical” one, trusting my ears.
Here I followed the exoplanet orbit’s ratios to create a coherent yet out of phase poly-rhythm. Recorded each track just listening to my 5 beat click (harmonics). Then I un-soloed every track to hear how this mess sounded like.
Well, it has that cosmological Steve Reich side that’s charming, but it still sounds as messy as it was supposed to.
Comments are welcome more than ever!
Love DD

Recently, scientists announced the discovery of a nearby star system, TRAPPIST-1. Orbiting its ultra-cool dwarf star are seven planets, three in the habitable zone. From the slowest, the planets orbit at: 1x, 4/3x 2x, 3x, 5x, 8x. Create an original musical composition that explores the exoplanets’ relationships.

Disquiet Junto Project 0331: Born Under a Bad Sine
What does it sound like when a robot has the blues?

Can’t quite tell for other cities, but believe me: this is  the kind of music robots like to listen to in my hometown when they get sad and low.
Buenos Aires is a melancholic city, and robots are not spared.

I won’t be surprised if this track becomes a hit among robots, my vacuum cleaner got weird while I was mixing this earlier this morning.
Me too, mind...

bio here:
http://dedeland.com/daniel-diaz-bio/


In some words:
Composer, arranger, producer, multi-instrumentalist. Born in Argentina,
I studied music in Buenos Aires, New York, Boston, Los Angeles and Paris.

For 20 years, I developed an important career as a session and backing musician in Argentina and Europe, playing, among other instruments, the bass, touring and recording with many jazz, rock, fusion, world, Latin and tango bands.

At the same time, I worked as an arranger, producer and musical director with many projects and artists in the USA, Argentina and Europe.

From 1992 to 1997, I performed my compositions live with my own band in Buenos Aires and began a solo recording career with the worldwide release of my first album "The Years Alone" on the North American label Green Linnet/Xenophile. On this album I arranged and performed 11 of my songs written between 1986 and 1993. I played most of the instruments, but included guest appearances by some great South American players.

My recording career continued with "Segundo Ciclo" (1997), released worldwide by Timeless Records, and 12 more albums released between 2000 and 2016.

Currently, I work as an on-demand film/TV composer while continuing to play live and produce.
