which catched my ear because I liked the mixture of drone and somehow new-agy drums.

After testing the assumed scale and tempo I added some improvised arpeggios. Because of the mirrored drums it sometimes fitted, sometimes you can’t overhear the “asynchronous” trio …

I wanted to add some kind of lead theme but I dismissed the idea at the end, because the track just felt right ambient. I could not resist to put in some ambience, in this case from Venice, Italy. Hope you like it!

Landscape Architecture(disquiet0528)

Times Itself [disquiet0529]
Created as part of Disquiet Junto weekly project 0529:  to make a piece of music that engages with the number 23.
This track has bars of 23 beats, it is 23 bars long.
I doubt the ear can discern the 23beat bar -but the rhythm is 123&12&12&123&12&12&123
The track has 3 drum tracks – done in bitwig. A Spitfire Audio piano, cello and violin plus acoustic drone recording of a metal sheet and a bit crushed megaphone announcement (in Japanese).The metal sheet friction drone is gate sequenced to an Euclidian patter on a 23 beat cycle.
The scale for the piano and strings is E+ F+ A B C+
Think it would make good closing credits music for a psychological thriller where a serial killer feasts on minor celebrities and influencers. The agent assigned to the case of course has his demons and struggles with his own autism -only to discover no one else has empathy for the victims either. It could be called LIKES!

Times Itself [disquiet0529]

This track was inspired by the number 23 (as proposed by the Disquiet Junto Project 0529). The generative MIDI sequencer Transition was used (as for all Musical Bots tracks), but also Stochas for the choir.
The number 23 influenced that piece of music in many different ways. Among others the morse code of psalm 23 in English, French and German is also part of this track.

My gratitude goes to zwier for the fieldrecording of the sheep provided here: https://freesound.org/people/zwier/sounds/200329/

23 Sheep (Disquiet0529)

This week's Disquiet Junto project had us look at earlier collaborations, and rework them. I choose Sternklang's Dead Center, which incorporated Dan Simpson (https://soundcloud.com/dan-simpson-497607106/disquiet0526-jan-21-look-again-2) and J. Benjamin Neimi's (https://soundcloud.com/user-931021867/january-21-look-again-disquiet0525)collaboration. I added a synth pad hooked up to Stochas, a bass and a droning guitar.

For Disquiet Junto 0543. The Assignment: Share a tip from your method toolbox. Also shared version of this over on Weekly Beats. 
A lot of this track was made using a technique I love: taking a piece of audio then using the Ableton Push 2 and the Simpler device to retrigger, chop manipulate and play around with the sample to create something new. There are many ways to manipulate samples, but I like this method because it's fast, I can improvise musically without a lot of fussing around, and I can do it fully on the Push hardware, no computer or mouse needed. Simpler is simple, and the 64 pads and 8 knobs on the Push 2 make playing with samples fun, fast and easy. Happy accidents occur, and things usually sound to my liking with minimal fussing about, so I can just flow and have fun.
Another attribute I like to add to songs are my own voice sounds, but heavily altered since I'm not much of a  traditional singer. Bonus points when the voice can turn into perscussion or another instrument. I often take these voice recordings and chop and play with them in Simpler as described above. The intro and middle of this song has some of my early experiments with a talkbox pedal. It's harder than it looks. And kind of a wet mess. But I'll keep playing with it. Used the Circuit Monostation as the instrument into the talkbox. So not sure if talkbox will turn into a favorite method for voice manipulation, but I know I'll keep messing around with vocals sounds.
