So the Disquiet Junto assignment this week was simply to make a piece of music in 29/16 time. This is a super weird time signature. I remembered fooling about with Dilla-type beats using quintuplets (where you count 5s between every beat) and I figured exploring groups of 5 16ths might be worth it. It's a strange feeling to try and take a very mathsy approach, like fitting beats tightly on a fixed grid of 29 steps, and try to replicate some kind of "real" shuffle.

In the second half of the track I use this sample pack from Freesound. A Korean instrument that sounds like a koto. https://freesound.org/people/spt3125/packs/1534/

This track was created for the 665th Disquiet Junto, a weekly music challenge. This week the challenge was to listen to the first Clicks + Cuts compilation and create something inspired by it. With the exception of the 808 drums all sounds are from field recordings I made around the house.

Nothing is fixed, everything flows

This is two assignments in one. First we have the Disquiet Junto 372 in which we were asked to do something with our latest instrument, which, in my case, is VCV Rack. On the other hand there is VCV Rack's inventor/main programmer Andrew Belt (Infinitely many thanks, Andrew!!)who states: "I personally recommend that you attempt to push the Fundamental modules to their limits before moving on to other official or third-party plugins." So this is my attempt. Did I succeed? Well, as you can see in the picture, there's still one module unused, so probably next up will be More Fundamental Limits, Further Fundamental Limits and possibly even Extreme Fundamental Limits. That is, if I can bring up the patience to keep away from other plugins.
About the patch: I am rather pleased with the idea of getting two melodies from one sequencer by putting it upside down with 8verter and transposing it a third. I also liked experimenting with the timbre of the bass by means of hard sync and an LFO. The rest is pretty much straight forward, I guess.

There was a time when I was involved in Science! But that was a mistake. My Passion is music. I play the pipe-organ and synthesizer, I play the organ in a few bands and I like Apple computers. I discovered SuperCollider and VCV Rack: great ways of making sounds. Enjoy them on SoundCloud!
