a little experiment with a remote control toy car - some great sounds of the motor on the wheels and different tones when it turns and does tricks. 

all the sounds you can hear are from the recording of the car, sampled and manipulated for a bit of fun! enjoy! 🤗

I used a piece by John Dowland "Lachrimae Antiquae" filtered with a low pass, then I took my track "caos11" and some of the material I had used to prepare it to create a mix between the two pieces.

Lachrimae Antiquae (caos11 remix) - disquiet0634

Animals

The cormorant in the forest;
The cherry blossoms
Along the evening path.

Tan Taigi was a haiku poet of the Edo period. He was a wanderer for most of his life and admired by Yosa Buson for his ability to transcend his eclectic and unconventional lifestyle with sublime poetry.

Disquiet Junto prompt #0644 (Event Horizon) asked us to record music for a party that we'd like to attend. Everybody loves puppets, even when they're dead, so what could be more fun than a funeral party for a marionette?

This is more of an arrangement than a composition. Its basis is "Funeral March for a Marionette" by composer Charles Gounod, made famous as the theme music for "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". The vague voicings and absurd amounts of reverb are intended to evoke a nightmarish mood. The percussion recalls the clicking of articulated wooden joints, and are those shouts in the distance?

This horrifying pastiche is best appreciated with headphones.

Recorded and produced at NO SIGNAL Multimedia Labs, The Shambles, Chicago.

heat in waves [naviarhaiku541]

The Assignment: Interpret the literal translation of “karaoke.”

Step 1: You may or may not be familiar with the literal meaning of the word “karaoke.” The first two syllables are the Japanese word for “empty.” The final two syllables are an abbreviation of the Japanese word for “orchestra.” Consider how the term “empty orchestra” connects with the idea of karaoke.

Step 2: Think about the term “empty orchestra” on its own, apart from its association with karaoke. Come up with a new meaning for it. What kind of genre or musical form would “empty orchestra” be on its own?

What a concept for Karaoke: Empty Orchestra? What does that even mean when there's a playback track sounding? There's no singer ok, but the band should be there right?
Anyway; I continue my research on orchestral samples from my different libraries and imagined an empty concert hall where some sort of sonic ectoplasm remains and is captured by my field recorder.
So this is 9 tracks or  sampled orchestras treated with ridiculous amounts of three different reverbs.
There's also a real cello popping in and out .

recorded thursday 16th May 2024 by DD at home.

Thanks for stopping by - please enjoy what you hear! 🤗 Any time you want to look as well as listen, head over to the YouTube channel ...

Apparently, the ‘hai’ in ‘haiku’ translates to ‘joke’, ‘fun’, or ‘unusual’, which is part of the inspiration for the odd name of this venture; an evolving project nurtured by Darren Bourne, in collaboration with countless others, past and present. The ongoing obsessions of halF unusuaL are improvisation, chance and the music / non-music boundary, with the aim of (impossibly) creating sound worlds never heard before ... Thank you so much for your support 🥰
