Disquiet Junto Project 0599: Minimal(ist) Blend

How the sounds were created might best be described as follows: 
- Recorded 5 polyrhythmic guitar tracks (in 3, 4, 5 and 7) live, over the entire duration of the track ~3.5 minutes
- Disguised them, only allowing each to come to the fore occasionally
- Added up-front metallic sounds, single hit percussion and a bassy pad
- Mixed those ingredients to allow different aspects to shine in turn.

Thanks @disquiet and @tobiasreber for this inspiring prompt!

Very nice samples to work with.
I unmuted the first 3 (or the last 3?) the more "synth" ones, didn't use the glitchy/noise tracks. Those 3 tracks played back with no added fx or mix sounded full Vangelis for me.
I  miss and I know I will miss Vangelis Papathanassíou for the rest of my life.
This one's for him. 

3 tracks from Marcus Fischer's sample set, tweaked and slightly edited
3 tracks performed by myself on Friday June the 30th during the morning: one electric piano, 2 synthesisers: Ultra Analog VA2 and Micro Korg

So Long Vangelis (disquiet0600)

performed by Neue Vocalsolisten Stuttgart
Chiesa di San Giovanni Battista (Onsernone), 30 June 2023

This piece is the third and the last piece of my Wittgenstein cycle and also an homage to Solage to express my fumeusement**
for his Rondeaux ‘’fumeux fume par fumee’’. 

The idea behind the polytext use is based on how much each text can be perceived 
as explanatory, commentary and complementary in relation with each other. 
As a composer I consider myself very lucky because the self-contained and self-explanatory qualities of each text
make it possible for me to stay silent whereof I can't speak as Witgenstein suggest in his famous sentence.

**fumeusement: with sadness, with grief, quarreling, with haziness, intangibility,
 tendency to rise, shifts in shape, easily wafted or dissipated  with the heat that fum produces, just like the fumeurs.

Discussion with Biden Official Who Quit in Protest Over Gaza

On today's episode Brian and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss why five people in the world have nearly $1 trillion of our society's money when inventors, academics, and well renowned people in other fields get prizes or one-time cash rewards. And how can Jeff Bezos operate Amazon without profit for nine years whereas most businesses can only go a few months?

Professor Richard Wolff is an author & co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work. You can find his work at rdwolff.com.

Billionaire Power: An American Obscenity

For Disquiet Junto 0637: The Assignment: Record the second third of an eventual trio.
I added to Sinny Sound's "Lucky Link": https://soundcloud.com/sinnysounds2/lucky-link-disquiet0636?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0636
I wanted to add some light harmony to underscore the melody. Converted the melody to midi harmony in Ableton. Made some light adjustments to midi notes here and there. Used the Schwarzonator 2.0 device to help add some additional chord notes. Chose some light key sounds from Kontakt 40's keys and Playbox. Also light bass from Lode, and melodic tabla. Tapped in the shaker parts. Panned hard right with orginal panned left. 

Enjoyed listening Sinny Sound's lovely melody while making this. I'll be humming it all week!

It was fun listening to everyone's "Left" tracks this week, I'm always in awe by this community's talent and creativity!
