Disquiet Junto Project 0082: Minimal Haydn

I wanted to be as true to the genre and to the assignment as possible. I went with out a beat for that reason, it was stipulated that we add no other element and I wanted to use this as a challenge. I think it worked pretty well. 
To be true to the genre set my beat to be at 125 bmp, and made great use of repetition, which is something I enjoy anyhow. 
I set out by opening the track in audacity and set it to play in reverse. I chose only three sections and safed each section separatly as ogg vorbis files. I then loaded these up in to the Audiofile Processor in LMMS and added reverb to all the sections. The first part I set to play at a much lower speed and set that as the base beat. The next part I added flanger to. I slowly increased the volume and did the same to the last section till I reached 100% volume. Then I cut the second part and ended the piece abruptly. 
I set out to create something that had enough of the original in to make it hint at Haydn without giving it all away.

Haydn Seek (disquiet0082-minimalhaydn)

The goal of this project was to make a 'minimal techno' track using samples from Franz Haydn’s String Quartet in F Major. Note that I do not believe I achieved this, although the results are interesting.

prolonged exposure [disquiet0082-minimalhaydn]

I was trying to extricate the basic components of the minimal genre, namely kick, snare, soundscapes and then work the silences around it. It came out denser/thicker than I initially intended. Thank you

Disquiet Junto Project 0082: Minimal Haydn

disquiet0082-minimalhaydn

I deem this a failure. It’s becoming depressing that I don’t have any idea how to create “techno”. This certainly isn’t, and it probably isn’t minimal either. I spent ages hand-crafting a “beat”, and all I got was a lousy pulse.

The rest is me throwing bits of sound around and being careless with effects plugins.

Not that I don’t like it, but I wish I could work out how to use Ableton just once and create something with a beat. Back to the DAW…


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This week’s project is another in a series of explorations of the concept of genre as a constraint. (The “downtempo” exercise went well several weeks ago, project 79, and this is another in that mode.) The genre this time is “minimal techno.” The source material is from another genre entirely: “classical,” specifically chamber music in the form of a string quartet. The goal of this project is to derive elements from the source material in the service of a track that would fit in the prescribed genre.

Haydn Agenda [disquiet0082-minimalhaydn]

I transformed the stereo track into two mono tracks, then chose three elements from the source. Then I used Pd, Reaper, and Audacity to create a track that may or may not resemble the genre "minimal techno." Anyway, it was fun.

Spring Has Withered

 I had never listened to my garden before.

This is my contribution to the Disquiet Junto project's Midnight Glitch assignment (0170).

I made a 1-minute recording in the garden, at midnight on Apr 6 2015, using a Soundman OKM II binaural mic. I then used Live to add a low frequency drone track with random high pitch notes (the glitches).

In my garden [disquiet0170-midnightglitch]

Simply a random field recording recorded on April 5th or 6th 2015 sometime around midnight in my SW Florida back yard. The track was then uploaded to my iTunes playlist and broadcast to an FM frequency from my iPhone through a mobile bluetooth device. I purposefully took it slightly off frequency to attain the static and a slight, indecipherable bleed through from a nearby station before recording.  

Disquiet Junto Project 0170: A Glitch in the Night
Create a one-minute track that takes the project title as its guiding aesthetic.

This project is the third in an ongoing occasional series that focus on late-night ambience. Collectively these nocturnal endeavors are being called “One Minute Past Midnight.” No one’s work will be repurposed without their permission, and it’s appreciated if you post your track with a Creative Commons license that allows for non-commercial reuse, reworking, and sharing.

The steps for this project are as follows:

Step 1: The primary goal of this project is to make a one-minute track. That track should, in your imagination, fit the description “A Glitch in the Night.”

Step 2: You may create an entirely original work that fits the brief project outline in Step 1. Or, you might choose to rework audio from one of two previous projects in this series, #0160 from January 22, 2015, and #0163 from February 12, 2015, both of which involve field recordings made of the sound one minute past midnight:

http://disquiet.com/0160/
http://disquiet.com/0163/

Step 3: If you choose, per Step 2, to use pre-existing material, locate segments that are especially quiet and meditative — and confirm that they are available for creative reuse. Many should have a Creative Commons license stating such, and if you’re not sure just check with the responsible Junto participant.

Step 4: Upload your track to the Disquiet Junto group on SoundCloud.

Step 5: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Deadline: This assignment was made in the evening, California time, on Thursday, April 2, 2015, with a deadline of 11:59pm wherever you are on Monday, April 6, 2015.

Length: The length of your finished work should be roughly between one and four minutes.

Upload: Please when posting your track on SoundCloud, only upload one track for this assignment, and include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto. Photos, video, and lists of equipment are always appreciated.

Title/Tag: When adding your track to the Disquiet Junto group on Soundcloud.com, please include the term “disquiet0170-midnightglitch” in the title of your track, and as a tag for your track.

Download: It is preferable that your track is set as downloadable, and that it allows for attributed remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution).

Linking: When posting the track, please be sure to include this information:

Night Air - disquiet0170-midnightglitch

Starseed [disquiet0170 - Midnightglitch]

Loopscapespace[disquiet0170 - Midnightglitch]

This track is dedicated to my Dad who passed away unexpectedly in his sleep on Saturday, October 1st. He was 58.

I had originally meant this as a bonus track to be included in the tape release of Healer, and had named it Sleep Now because that's what the music made me think of. But since Saturday, both the track and the name have taken on a completely different meaning to me.

The photo is a polaroid selfie of him from the late 80's, when he was working the US with the hope of bringing my Mom and I over from Poland to North America.

Rest In Peace Dad

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.

Dowsabel is a musical/sound art project without many boundaries and a lot of exploration. I have started issuing limited edition physical releases of Dowsabel under my micropress/mail art project, Faint Press (faintpress.tumblr.com).
