Sound of mountain
sound of ocean
everywhere spring rain.

SO inspired by Marc Eisenschink’s Enner performance over encym’s wonderful guitar starting point! Ableton’s Tension synth adds a forward and backward dimension to complete this collaborative trio …

I took this track by morgulbee
https://soundcloud.com/morgulbee/dos-flores-disquiet0592?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0592
who worked on "Le Nom Des Fleurs" 's track from the previous week.
As suggested by morgulbee I added a funky bass line using a little old pedal from Electro Harmonix called Bass Balls that I bought 15 years ago and used once and then forgot about. It stills sounds pretty weird for an autowah IMHO.

Tres Flores Viejas (with morgulbee & Le Nom Des Fleurs) - disquiet0593

This track is the third and final part of a Disquiet Junto Project 0593 - to add a third part to a duo that has been created by other Disquiet members.
The left channel is Andreas Kitzmann's track (https://soundcloud.com/andreas-kitzmann-27370936/disquiet0591?si=f7143a5ee5bd411a9af9e73c7d7e0630&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing). The right was added by encym resulting in  "Tête-à-Tête" (https://soundcloud.com/encym/tete-a-tete-disquiet0592?si=5cfeed87321c44dbb80034a8d1ae91bc&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)
I have added a central melodic theme to this haunting drone with a vocal glide patch in Arturia Pigments.

Strange Dreams of a Turtle...laughing at us.

Strange Dreams Are Made Of This(NaviarHaiku488)

in dream world
was I laughing at a turtle?
winter seclusion

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun. If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku.

From the Haiku Guy website:

“Perhaps Issa’s dream is symbolic. Like a turtle, he is hunkered inside his shell (hut), waiting out the harsh winter weather. Or, William Nicholas offers a different interpretation, noting that the turtle is linked with good luck and longevity in Japan. In 1812 Issa was still a bachelor; he married two years later. At this point in his life he longed for the good luck of marriage and family life, hence the dream turtle’s teasing laughter?”

Seven days to make music in response to the assigned haiku: to participate visit https://www.naviarrecords.com/about/naviar-haiku

[disquiet0594] Step - Dub

A work in progress / abandonded track from early 2023, finished and remixed June 1st 2023.
This track, I created earlier this year for the same proto-jazz proyect that generated my track for [junto0584](https://soundcloud.com/daniel-diaz/nocturnal-studio-jam-number-2) this was intended to be a jazz-lounge jam, I recorded the electric piano part over a jazz drum loop and a walking upright bass, then decided that I wanted a more lounge/funky beta and grabbed a different loop. I clicked on the wrong loop-file an dI got this weird electro-beat that completely destroyed the track's jazz feel. I tried to re record the bass, with a fretless bass, more soul-funk groovy but it didn't work, it was too hybrid.

So as the track evolved from a jazz jam to...well, this; I decided to tweak a couple of things, mix it and share it with you as my example of Phylogeny.

Recorded early 2023 by DD in Paris, FR,
Fretless bass guitar
Electric piano
Drum loops and synthesizers.

Phylogeny (Jazz at the Achilleion Palace) - disquiet0596

End of the Republic uses the words of Abraham Lincoln to produce a dystopian view of the state of the republic.

The music was made using a Soma Enner, a granular synth and two tape decks running at different speeds. It was of course recorded live with the words dubbed afterwards.

Note that a cassette version is available with 2 bonus tracks (https://samanthajanesmith.bandcamp.com/track/end-of-the-republic) and the vinyl version is with 3 bonus tracks (vinyl is here: elasticstage.com/samanthajsmith)

End of the Republic

Welcome to halF unusuaL, an evolving space inspired by play in the spirit of ‘hai’ (meaning “fun” or “unusual” in the word haiku). Here, improvisation connects the unexpected, mining the boundary between music and non-music to shape sound worlds that feel oddly familiar in their oddity. Listen freely, explore deeply, and for the sounds to live for your eyes as well as your ears, please stop by the YouTube channel. Thank you for joining this journey! Your support helps keep this afloat ... and is HUGELY appreciated 🥰
