TOF

Are you ardent?
In the MADNESS of war
Guarding his life with your DEATH
His SONG on your breath
Your LOVE for Him filling your heart
Are you still wild?
Can you take command?
O will you join the attack?
Fire true from horseback?
Let us ride all ye Redhats
& fill afternoon with our arrows
High & aloft
Fighting forever for Ekkor our God
Are you ardent?
Let us hear a tale of SONG from Hemlock now!

HEM

Centuries ago
On the shores of the world
Travelers tossed by a fault
Neath an ocean of salt
Washed up without bearings nor hope
And the Holy Forest throng
The uncanny birdsong
Called to them more than the reach
They abandoned the beach
Wandered into the trees
Where they joined in the chorus forever
Drifting in time
Castaways wed to the Wood
Speech & destinies all but forsaken
For music & rhyme
Artistic extremes and dreams leporine
Are you ardent?
Let us hear a tale of DEATH from Fury now!

FUR

I recall my first
Far from my worst
A man from the bigotted hordes
A Captain of sorts
At the Battle of Dáktylir
Fire had snapped my bow
So I rode him down
Drove him into a red oak
As he slashed at my throat
I crushed him back into the
Trunk with Ontario’s shoulder
Till his breastbone exploded
& a hundred branchfuls of snow
Shook down like confectioners’ sugar
His blood on my face
His dying eyes marking who’d furnished his fate
Are you ardent?
Let us hear a tale of MADNESS from Christoffel now!

TOF

Ah, quei giorni utopici giù in Toscana!
La poesia!
La musica senza finale!
Gallegiando sul maestrale!
E tanti amici demenziale!
Feci caprioli su Cheope in la piazza,
Tutt’applaudirono!
E por un solo momento,
Io sapevo cosa significa
Essere veramente singolare,
La bella del ballo, 
La Eterodossa!
Una sopra, n’una tra, billione
Cast’e doverosa ragazze scout in le gonne marrone.
Sei appassionata?
Let us hear a tale of LOVE from Hobby now!

HOB

O ye think me proud
But I know a tale
Round which your others will pale
All that SONG on your breath
All your MADNESS & DEATH
Very well, I will tell of a love so pure
Yet so insecure
Nothing could come of it but
Rivers of blood
A testament cut
In the breast of the mountain forever
A carving away
A breathlessly penitent hush
In the Song of the Forest forever
A pining away
A beautiful, terrible rush
To the depths of Creation forever
A falling away
A hopelessness manifest just
In the drape of an arm round a shoulder
& a heart that would break
But that it meant never seeing that face again...
Are ye ardent?

Are You Ardent?

Ring Mod Dialogue

This is an asynchronous duet with https://soundcloud.com/dandante and https://soundcloud.com/blaaroed. 

I really enjoyed the Suborbital Hang Glider piece from @tt16tt and @dandante. I hope they forgive me for making the abstract approach of the drone a bit more tangible. I added a bassline with Generate, some strings with with Blisko Viola, metallic noises from Kinetic Metal, and a simple ping with AAS Chromaphone. The additions sit right in the middle of the mix.

Disquiet Junto Project 0638: Center (3 of 3)
The Assignment: Complete a trio begun by two other musicians.

Step 1: This week’s Disquiet Junto project is the third in a sequence that encourages and rewards asynchronous collaboration. This week you will be adding music to a pre-existing track, which you will source from the previous week’s Junto project (disquiet.com/0637). Note that you are finishing a trio: you’re creating the third part of what two previous musicians began, filling the space between them. Please keep this in mind.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record an original piece of music, on any instrumentation of your choice, as a complement to a pre-existing track. First, however, you must select the piece of music to which you will be adding your own music. There are tracks by numerous musicians to choose from. 

(...)

When choosing a track, consider checking out the two previous projects’ discussion threads, as there may be additional information in them that could be of use, such as BPM or key signature:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0637-right-2-of-3/

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0636-left-1-of-3/

Step 3: Record a piece of music, roughly the length of the piece of music you selected in Step 2. Your track should complement the piece from Step 2, and it should be placed dead center between the left and right stereo channels. When composing and recording your part, do not alter the original piece of music at all. To be clear: the track you upload won’t be your piece of music alone; it will be a combination of the track from Step 2 and yours.

Step 4: Also be sure, when done, to make the finished track downloadable, because it may be used by someone else in a subsequent Junto project.

Step 5:  In normal circumstances, Junto projects have a one-track-per-participant limit. However, as with the preceding project that led up to this one, you can contribute more than one track this week. You can do up to three total this time. For your first, you can choose any track from the duets, no matter how many times others may have employed it. If you choose to do a second or third, you should do a track no on else has used yet (it’s understood that between when you select a duet track and finish your trio, someone else may have popped up and used it, which is perfectly fine). Throughout the project I will keep an updated list in this Google Drive document of what has been utilized:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kDorIMT9j_nQQPXACYpMPe4B86T2QD5Xvv98XAOS4UE/edit?pli=1#gid=0

The goal is for many as people as possible to benefit from the experience of being part of an asynchronous collaboration. That, foremost, is the spirit of this project.

Tasks Upon Completion:

Label: Include “disquiet0638” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.

Upload: Post your track to a public account (SoundCloud preferred but by no means required). 

Share: Post your track and a description explanation at https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0638-center-3-of-3/

Discuss: Listen to and comment on the other tracks.

Length: The length is up to you. Stick close to the length of the track yours adds to.

Deadline: Monday, March 25, 2024, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.

Leden and Laura's live performances are based on a real-time processing of saxophone’s sounds, using digital devices designed by Fabris himself to sculpt, mould and generate their own sonorities. Laura's playing involves different extended techniques and the use of the mechanics of her instrument, the only sound source of their live set.Their new repertoire combines the emotional power of melody with experimental ambient soundscapes.

Gymnopédie No. 1 [disquiet0363]

Known to many through his collaborative works with Oren Ambarchi, crys cole, Kassel Jaeger, Klaus Lang, Joe Talia, and many others, this LP is Rushford’s first solo release in a decade and the very first he has composed, performed, and recorded entirely alone.

Primarily recorded in Los Angeles in 2017, The Body’s Night is a single electro-acoustic suite stretching over thirty minutes, utilizing field recordings, flutes, ocarina, microphones, organ, percussion, piano, tape, analog synthesizers, viola, and voice. True to its title, the record immediately ushers into a nocturnal, intimate, claustrophobic space where the hyper-amplified rustle of clothing and vocal mumbles are shadowed by uneasy synth tones, fluttering white noise and distant filigrees of ultra-high-pitched tones at the edges of aural perception. While the influence of contemporary composers such as Klaus Lang and Jakob Ullmann (both of whose music Rushford has performed extensively) makes itself felt in the music’s attention to the liminal space between sounds, Rushford also draws on the bedroom synth explorations of ’80s acts like DDAA and the harmonies and production values of black metal, drawing a common thread between these influences in terms of their shared interest in atmosphere and deliberate retreat from perspicuity. Relief from this claustrophobic atmosphere comes through the episodic structure of the piece, where like an already dark shot fading to black, each sequence retreats from your ears before you can properly grasp it.

Rushford uses classical electro-acoustic techniques and plays elegantly on the fundamental ambiguity of the acousmatic situation in which you can never be sure of the source of the sound you are hearing. But rather than a tribute to the masterworks of musique concrete, this is defiantly idiosyncratic and personal music. Meticulous in production values and exploratory in timbre, tonality and form, The Body’s Night is a key work from one of the most singular young composers at work today.

Stunning artwork by O.B. De Alessi. Design by Lasse Marhaug. Mastered for maximum fidelity by Rashad Becker at Dubplates & Mastering, Berlin.
