Disquiet Junto Project 0582: X Techno
The Assignment: Make a new subgenre.

Step 1: You’re going to make a new subgenre of techno. Think for a moment about what makes techno techno.

Step 2: Choose a word and put it before “techno.” Those two words in combination are your new subgenre.

Step 3: Record a piece of music in the style of the subgenre you came up with in Step 2.

Eight Important Steps When Your Track Is Done:

Step 1: Include “disquiet0582” (no spaces or quotation marks) in the name of your tracks.

Step 2: If your audio-hosting platform allows for tags, be sure to also include the project tag “disquiet0582” (no spaces or quotation marks). If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to subsequent location of tracks for the creation of a project playlist.

Step 3: Upload your tracks. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your tracks.

Step 4: Post your track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0582-x-techno/

Step 5: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process.

Step 6: If posting on social media, please consider using the hashtag #DisquietJunto so fellow participants are more likely to locate your communication.

Step 7: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Step 8: Also join in the discussion on the Disquiet Junto Slack. Send your email address to marc@disquiet.com for Slack inclusion.

Note: Please post one track for this weekly Junto project. If you choose to post more than one, and do so on SoundCloud, please let me know which you’d like added to the playlist. Thanks.

Additional Details:

Length: The length is up to you. What’s the norm in your new subgenre?

Deadline: Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, February 27, 2023, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, February 23, 2023.

Upload: When participating in this project, be sure to include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto. Photos, video, and lists of equipment are always appreciated.

Repetition is Meditation - disquiet0582

I had two ideas for a new Techno subgenre: “Fibonacci Techno” and “Technoviking Techno”. The first would follow Fibonacci numbers as closely as possible. The second would sound like the first track in the famous Technoviking meme video (acoustics, not melodies or beats). The first I deemed easy to pull off, the second impossible. So to make a challenge out of this, I merged the two genres into “Fibonacci Viking Techno”. I followed the numbers as closely as possible, e.g. setting all values of instruments and effects to Fibonacci numbers (which musically makes little sense - but the concept asked for). The bass drum is on 8, most other things on 1, 2, 3, 5, 13 or 21. For effects I went up to 89 - wow! Then I tried to boost tone whole thing to Viking level, which I unfortunately did not reach. Kept it really short with lots of breaks, which is the norm in this genre.

For this challenge I hybridised my last Disquiet offering, I resampled some of the ‘aquatic’ atmospherics and then recombined with a mutant faltering techno-ish rhythm and glitched siren calls. I hereby give you ‘subaquatic techno’. 🧜‍♀️ 
I did this latest doodle on my iPad again.

Composed for the Disquiet Junto Project 0582: X Techno
The Assignment: Make a new subgenre.

---

All sounds created from recordings of bonfires, campfires, and a woodfired pizza oven. Lots of sizzles and crackles chopped and resampled into drums and percussive layers, and some texture layers. The synth-sounding pads and bass were made by running some of the samples through resonators tuned to chords, and re-pitching those.

A country techno creation for Disquiet Junto 0582 X Techno. The Assignment: Make a new subgenre. 
This is a new mix of a Creatures Once band jam. Every once in a while the country, western, bluegrass, and folk sounds that surround us up here in the Pacific Northwest sneak into our creations, and it can be fun to indulge. Amazing guitar and harmonica playing from band mate Monstrosus(https://www.youtube.com/@monstrosus13). The first mix of this jam was shared for Weekly Beats last year and it was more of a hip-hop vibe. I used some fun dog GoPro footage for the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq0BoIesOwA&ab_channel=CreaturesOnce). Here's my attempt at a techno mix. I may have strayed too far from the parent genre here, but it was fun to make! It was also fun to read about existing sub-genres and listen to some great tracks this week. Its been while since I've listened to some techno, and it was energizing. Every time I would search for a sub-genre idea I had, like jazz, or lo-fi, I would find some examples already out there. There's some many sub-genres of techno and other electronic genres. That's a great sign. I nice wide open field for creativity.
