Great musical characters. Very exciting to listen to. 🪐

Disquiet Junto Project 0609: Speed Limit Pt 1
The Assignment: Record a track at precisely 60 BPM with the intention someone will subsequently rework it.

Step 1: You’re going to record a simple track at 60 BPM in 4/4 that will be reworked subsequently by other musicians, including potentially being combined with other tracks. Think about how you want to structure something with that intention.

Step 2: Record a 60 BPM track in 4/4 based on the thinking that resulted from Step 1.

Note: This is the first part of a two-part project. You don’t need to participate in both. In the Junto, all projects are intended to be doable as standalones. However, there often are sequences. The intended second project of this project, next week, will build on this one, so please consider making your track downloadable and available for reworking/remixing.

Details: disquiet.com/0609

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, September 4, 2023, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, August 31, 2023.

Plucks & Pad (disquiet0609)

This week's assignment left me somewhat conflicted. 

I wanted to leave enough room for Disquiet Junto members to take parts of the track and add their ideas. On the other hand, it should sound like a track and not like an assembly of 4-bar loops. I hope I left enough space for you to add. If not, there's always the possibility to EQ the s*** out of it. 

Second, 60 BPM feels like 120 BPM when you add 16th hi-hats to it... but I couldn't resist doing it.

I recently got my hands on the Terra from Soma and, well, I haven't been able to keep my hands off of it. So I decided to use it for this challenge employing the arp mode with the timing regulated by an external clock. There are three, roughly 1 minute segments to this track. The first runs the Terra through an Eno style airport looper, with 4 intersecting loops. The second does the same, with a little help from the granular mode on the Cosmos. The third Terra arp is just run through the Cosmos delay mode. The first track uses an arpeggio with about 5 notes, the second about 3 and the last only 1, with the "sun" knob on the Terra creating some tonal variation. Hopefully at least some of this will be useable!

Here's my inspiration : « Jésus est le soleil. Marie est l'Aurore qui annonce sa venue »
PAPE FRANÇOIS
And :
« Dans l'univers, de nombreuses forces sont à l'œuvre, que nous ne connaissons pas encore, comme l'énergie noire.
Un exercice courant dans les devoirs scolaires consistait à représenter notre système solaire sous la forme d'une maquette.
Grâce à cet exercice, nous savons que le système solaire est un ensemble de planètes qui tournent autour de la grande étoile dorée. Mais dans ces modèles, le soleil était statique et flottait dans l'immensité.
Or, les astronomes soulignent depuis des décennies que le système solaire, et surtout notre galaxie, la Voie lactée, se déplacent dans l'immensité de l'univers à une vitesse d'environ 600 kilomètres par seconde.
Et l'on sait depuis longtemps que ce voyage a une destination.
Les découvertes faites dans les années 1970 par un groupe d'astronomes ont permis de déterminer l'existence d'une "grande force" dont la source serait la destination du voyage actuel de la galaxie.
Cette force a été appelée le « Grand Attracteur »
Notre galaxie se dirige vers quelque chose que nous ne pouvons pas voir clairement. Le point focal de ce mouvement est le Grand Attracteur, fruit de milliards d'années d'évolution cosmique", explique à BBC Mundo le cosmologiste Paul Sutter, professeur d'astrophysique à l'université Stony Brooks de New York
Et malgré la vitesse impressionnante à laquelle notre galaxie voyage, elle n'atteindra probablement jamais la destination fixée par le Grand Attracteur
Nous n'atteindrons jamais notre destination car, dans quelques milliards d'années, la force d'accélération de l'énergie noire détruira l'univers explique M. Sutter.
L'énergie noire, explique la NASA, est une force mystérieuse qui imprègne le cosmos et accélère l'expansion de l'univers.
Comment notre compréhension actuelle de l'univers est en réalité "un aveu de notre ignorance"
Cela signifie que les galaxies s'éloignent de plus en plus les unes des autres, jusqu'à ce que, dans des milliards d'années, la structure de l'univers telle que nous la connaissons aujourd'hui soit détruite.
Comprendre les effets du Grand Attracteur fait donc partie de la quête de compréhension de la structure de l'univers.
Dans l'étude de l'univers, il est très important de savoir comment il est organisé, pourquoi il est organisé à partir de structures qui ont certaines dimensions, et le fait de connaître chacune d'entre elles et leurs dimensions nous aide beaucoup dans cette entreprise", a déclaré à BBC Mundo Carlos Augusto Molina, un astrophysicien colombien qui travaille au planétarium de Bogota.
Au fur et à mesure que l'exploration spatiale progressait, en grande partie grâce au télescope Hubble envoyé dans l'espace dans la seconde moitié du 20e siècle, les astronomes ont été confrontés au défi d'organiser d'une manière ou d'une autre tout ce qu'ils voyaient.
Une sorte de carte a commencé à être dessinée et, bien sûr, l'un des points clés était de savoir où se trouvent notre système solaire et notre galaxie dans l'univers.
Vers les années 1970, nous avons commencé à étudier le mouvement de notre système solaire et de notre galaxie, et nous l'avons comparé avec le mouvement d'autres galaxies proches, et tout semblait aller dans la même direction, celle de l'expansion de l'univers", explique M. Sutter.
Notre galaxie, la Voie lactée, se dirige vers l'endroit où se trouve le Grand Attracteur...»

Future Never Waits

Last Saturday, the ACEC building in Apeldoorn transformed into a pulsating universe of sound, light, and energy. During De Opening, Deep Circuit Electro Miners delivered a concert that shook the walls and lit up hearts. The audience was swept away on a sonic journey through glitchy rhythms, hypnotic visuals, and an atmosphere that hovered somewhere between rave and ritual.

To close this unforgettable evening, the group unveiled their latest creation: The Glob. A track that feels like a cosmic entity slowly coming to life—growing, pulsing, transforming. It’s the perfect fusion of their experimental roots and their love for the unexpected.

With members from London, Amsterdam, and Apeldoorn, Deep Circuit Electro Miners is more than a band—it’s a collective that creates music for the sheer joy of it, yet with a depth that lingers. The Glob is out now, and if you dare, you can listen to it on their SoundCloud. But be warned: once The Glob grabs hold of you, it doesn’t let go.

The Glob

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.
