My soft R panned synth track (a soloist impro using a mono lead on AAS Ultra Analog) over his L panned original.

I improvised over 6 tracks from last week to see what happened on "first take" , decided to keep 3 for the second week.
Today, while choosing just 2 to share here, I decided to keep this one, even if I didn't develop nor edit my take I thinks it's nice to have a pure 2 synth duet and I like his basic track (reminds me of Penguin Cafe Orchestra's "...Found Harmonium" track) and my impro as as good as I can get, it is rambling  but I am  really happy with of it.

I interpreted his title as "I'm Plexus" before realizing that  implexus was a thing...
Too late, my track was already titled "We'r Plexus"...

WERPLEXUS - disquiet0637 w/tunelight

Part two of three of the Disquiet Junto collaboration project. This takes the C# electronic drone created by @alanblip and adds a drop-tuned guitar for a rhythm track. What will it sound like with a 3rd part, I wonder?

“What we’ll always have is something we lost in the snow” is taken from a poem by Ocean Vuong, in which grief and memory take shape in the image of the snow. The title of this piece already contains all the textual and phonetic material of which it consists. The text, in fact, is not enunciated, but emerges and dissolves in the phonemes of the letters in which it is immersed, through a vocality that is sometimes ambiguous, muffled, mimetic, sometimes pure and crystalline. The listening oscillates between the perception of the meaning of the text and that of pure sound, in this constant exploration of which the voice becomes the medium.
