This was one that I started several years ago, but I finished tonight.  The project seemed like an appropriate time to let it go as/is.  It was intended for the Orphan Work record I made; the inspiration was reading accounts of anthracite miners.  Unfortunately, I couldn't get it together in a way that made sense with the rest of the songs I was working on.  There's some midi mellotron, violin, guitar and I manipulated cassettes. . .

Disquiet0481 Sometimes You're The Ghost

For this challenge, Type Set, I used the sound of a keyboard typing the first two stanza's of Edgar Allan Poe's, 'The Raven' .  The typing was performed and recorded by my close collaborator, JC Petkovich, who used a JD40 which he built and dropped into a CNC'ed aluminum case. JC also added foam between the PCB and case to dampen the noise, the switches are Aqua Zilent switches which are also very quiet. The keyboard recording was then processed using Supercollider to "tune" the key sounds using a band pass filter. In addition,  recordings of raindrops as well ravens were also similarly processed and used in the final piece. The work was assembled and mixed in Ableton Live 10 and some software instruments were added.

All that I did not understand, Story of an afternoon and Under Antonio Ceriani / Tutto quello che non ho capito, Storia di un pomeriggio e Sotto Antonio Ceriani

These three songs are constructed in a very similar way, practically recording short guitar patterns and creating loops by re-editing them and processing them with the same outboard. They were also the easiest tracks of the selection to restore as they were kept on multi-track format. All three tracks are directly inspired by Pietro Puccio's paintings. Between the distressing expectation of Under Antonio Ceriani and the lazy and lukewarm pace of the Story of an afternoon, my favorite has always been All that I did not understand, with that mass of unknown emerging from the depths of the canvas and swallowing all the forms and colors.

Questi tre brani sono costruiti in modo molto simile, in pratica registrando dei brevi pattern di chitarra e creando loop rimaneggiandoli e passandoli dagli stessi macchinari. Sono stati anche i più facili della raccolta da restaurare in quanto tenuti in multi-traccia. Tutti e tre i brani sono ispirati direttamente da dei quadri di Pietro Puccio. Tra l'attesa desolante di Sotto Antonio Ceriani e il pigro e tiepido incedere di Storia di un pomeriggio, il mio preferito è sempre stato Tutto quello che non ho capito, con quella massa di ignoto che emergeva dal fondo della tela e ingoiava le forme e i colori.

This is the last part of an asynchronous jam with halF unusuaL and Lake Forest Sound Machine.  I recorded some guitar melodies to https://soundcloud.com/half-unusual/half-robodub-disquiet0473-with-lake-forest-sound-machine

...which was a duet with https://soundcloud.com/lakeforestsoundmachine/robodub-disquiet0472

The original track was pretty tonally chaotic. I picked out a few frequencies and from that chose to jam (for the most part) in B melodic minor/harmonic minor but there's a lot of fourths which gives it kind of a goofy feel. There's also some chromatic moments.
