Truly a wonderful piece! I love the concept. Pops of noise were not an issue here :)

Cool. I like the ableton grid spead out on an apc 40. I got a big pop and just cut the volume down, i am not sure the of the cause either.

Vocals & Lyrics: 
harmful if swallowed
https://soundcloud.com/harmful-if-followed


Door slams
Key turns
Tv gives me electric burns
I’m yearning for the learning that I should have done at school
Too old for the scrap heap but I’m too young to be cool

Addicts brain
Flickers on
It won’t stay prone for too long
I’m rummaging through cupboards see if there are any crumbs
I know I probably shouldn’t but I love to feel real numb

I don’t know why I try to hide away the real me
When I get high i fly to places that I’ll never reach
With every goodbye I cry cos I know that I’ll never be
Totally satisfied when I get my chance to shine

Eyes down
Look in
Sit back relax it’s a win
These waves come crashing over me it’s almost real
I’m wet but dry at the same time and loving how it feels

Lights are on
But insides out
Lips move but you’ll need to shout
I’m trying hard to focus but I can’t seem to keep track
Listening to pictures but I’m getting nothing back

Ketogenic cheesecake Jesus it’s a Monday morning
Metabolic sweepstake think I’ll lose my mind
And who knows where they’ll find me

“Science is Copernican, but society remains Ptolemaic. Our behavior is self-centered. Our culture is bigoted, our politics tribal. Society needs a Copernican revolution. If we are to survive, we need to recognize that we are not special. If we are to have a peaceful relationship with one another and our planet, we must become humble. A Copernican revolution is achievable, but will not be accomplished through scientific education alone. Only culture has the potential to put us in touch with our cosmic insignificance, and to bring about a cultural paradigm shift. The Copernican revolution in culture will be realized with Copernican music.” - Jonathon Keats

For this Disquiet assignment (my first in quite some time), I explored the articles on space.com that concerned Jonathon Keats' work, when i stumbled across "The show had its own soundtrack, too, which was tweaked to match the entropy of the universe. Keats randomized 25 percent of the notes in Johann Sebastian Bach's "Well-Tempered Clavier," because, he said, the universe is one-quarter of the way to "heat death," or total disorderliness." (https://www.space.com/14701-keats-copernican-art-manifesto.html)

The idea of using maths to create, organize or manipulate music is nothing new, yet a theme i constantly find myself exploring within my own work, whether using hard or soft synced LFOs to manipulate musical parameters, or just faced with the grid based interface of Ableton.

So adapting the idea of a quarter of chaos, and wanting to contrast this with romantic ideas of cosmic order, i found a decent set of MIDI parts for Gustav Holst's Planets Suite and then applied various randomizations to both the notation and instrumentation to "Jupiter", which resulted in something quite distinct to the original work.

Note: I apologize for the occasional pops of sound - nothing speaker destroying, but it annoys me and it shouldn't be there.
