Right there, man. I'm blown away how this sounds like it was done together. Thank you for taking this further!

Disquiet Junto Project 0697: First Third
The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.

I made a simple sequence, that should leave a lot of room for two musicians. It should be Fminor with 70bpm in 6/4.

[disquiet0697] Crux

The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.

Please note: While this project is the start of a three-part sequence that will unfold over the course of three consecutive weeks, you can participate in any or all three of those parts. 

Step 1: This week’s Junto project is the first in a sequence intended to encourage and reward collaboration. You will be recording something with the understanding that it will remain unfinished for the time being. Your part will be done, but more will happen. Read on.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record a short and original piece of music using any instrumentation of your choice. Conceive the piece as something that leaves room for something else — other instruments, other people — to join in. (Keep in mind that your piece resulting from this week’s project will be panned to the left in the second and third weeks of this sequence.)

Step 3: Record a short piece of music, roughly two to three minutes in length, as described in Step 2. 

Step 4: This is important: be sure to make your track downloadable because it may be used by someone else in the next Disquiet Junto project, and the one after that.

alarm [disquiet0697]a

I wanted to create something simple and circular that could stand alone for this first part of the @disquiet trio project. Using the Silver Age piano preset on Logic Pro with no effects, I repeat the note sequence D, G, D, A, F# eight times, sometimes letting the D and A overlap. There is no bpm to this and the only alterations I made when listening to this several times after recording this sequence, was to reduce the velocity on many of the notes to evoke an almost 'not really playing' quality to the piece.

Looking forward to hearing if anyone takes this further.

Hole Third (disquiet0697)

[disquiet0697] seq

Based on a piano performance by @leonclowes, I played an OB-E (thanks, Tom Oberheim & @gforce-software) over Leon’s piano. I was going for a streamlined version of something quiet by Ravel — a kind of synthetic tone poem. Both the piano and strings are fake, but hopefully there’s still room to build.

For this piece I incorporated “Hydrasynth-105bpm-CMaj_disquiet0697 6 chords” disquiet0697 by 14 Below Zero (https://soundcloud.com/14-below-zero) for the left channel.  https://soundcloud.com/14-below-zero/hydrasynth-105bpm-cmaj_disquiet0697-6-chords-disquiet0697 

My contribution is on the right. 

For my part, I acted in a supporting role, starting with 14 Below Zero’s notes & Cherry Audio’s emulation of Octave Electronics’ 1976 CAT synth and then adding effects & editing where I felt appropriate. I had such a block on mixing this because I dislike hard panning for most things…so I mixed it in a way I preferred. After I felt good about that mix, I hard panned it again (except for some effects) and yeah, I still liked it. This should be fun for someone to add to next week.

Disquiet Junto Project 0699: Third Third
The Assignment: Record the final third of a trio.

There are two versions of the instructions for this week’s project — one very short, the other very long.

Very short version (roughly 25 words): Select a track from last week’s duet project (disquiet.com/0698) and add a third part dead center between the left and right stereo channels to complete a trio.

Prompt 701 of the Disquiet Junto had us break a piece of music into segments and fill the gaps with something new,

My contribution is an interpretation of Scelsi's "Quattro Pezzi su una nota sola", its four pieces interrupted by narrative interstitials. Features ebow on slide steel, piano, and organic vocals. The script was adapted from https://www.allmusic.com/composition/mc0002378353.

Scelsi's Piano (disquiet0701)

During the early 1990s I studied Mathematics and Computer Science. The world wide web was still largely text-based and mostly empty. Today things are obviously different, though I still thoroughly enjoy art, design, cinema and music in all its forms. I have traveled all over the world for nearly two decades, visiting just over 140 countries. Japan is my favorite. All of this I attempt to incorporate into my music and art.
