Great mood! Dark and laden with atmosphere...

Especially enjoyed the dark pad like sound punctuated by the various percussive sounds:-)

Thinking of us

Tamesem Writesone

The "one sentence that in some manner describes your artistic practice", step two of this week's Disquiet Junto brief, is as follows:

I make music to explore sound and the boundary of what is considered ‘music’ … and I use chance so that, in turn, sound can explore me through the process, as well as, at best, anyone else who listens. 

Perhaps ironically, the SoundCloud algorithm doesn't consider this track 'music' enough to recommend to potentially interested listeners ... so it might actually be worth a listen! 😁😜

Great to be contributing to Musikfestival Bern again with this exploration!

I can't see you (disquiet0294)

Starting with the provided audio, I began the piece with the full audio clip, unmodified except for some reverb. I then added some piano (envelope and filter tweaked make it a little interesting) and some rhythm constructed from the audio. The piano plays a chord shifting from major to minor, and is then accompanied by a bell that plays the root (G#) but shifts in timing via a loop with an odd-numbered length. Done in Ableton Live and "performed" by turning clips on and off and shifting scenes, rather than constructing it.

18.8.17 WI:L - Seven Seconds[disquiet0294]

This past week was not an easy one in the US, nor in Barcelona (one of Suss Müsik’s favorite cities). We seem to exist today in a space between anticipation and the mundane. We fear that a catastrophe that may never occur will cause our demise, but the height of anxiety is in the waiting. As Richard Wright wrote in his classic novel Native Son: “There was but a long stretch of time that was very short, and then — the end.”

The sampled quote by Bassel Khartabil is a greeting followed quickly by an apology. “Hello I’m sorry,” sang Michael Stipe in the late 80’s. Suss Müsik imagines that most interactions contain at least some amount of regret for what might have been. We like to hope that times of crisis bring about a cycle of affirmation, but that’s not always how things work out. Bassel’s life was too short; the wait for his release took too long. Cruelly, both ended in a single event.

For this short piece, Suss Müsik interpreted Bassel’s vocal inflections as a form of notation. Early in the sampled recording, one can detect the plop plop that an Apple MacBook Pro makes when the sound volume is adjusted. We replicated this rhythm and used it to form base tempo. We then built upon this spine with bits of binaural cello and phased piano polyrhythms. 

The piece is titled Fatra, which means “interval” in Arabic.

Fatra [Disquiet0294]

This week's Junto pays tribute to the late Bassel Khartabil by turning his spoken words into music.

I took the sample and listened through, selecting out interesting blocks of sound. The two large gaps with no speech both sounded quite like heartbeats, which I felt would serve as a reminder of his life, and conversely by their absence his death. To this I added a sparse arrangement of percussive sounds all taken from the sample.  
No other sound sources were used.  I found the 'hello' part of the speech sounded quite questioning when given a large reverb, and gained a new and more disturbing meaning when paired with the 'I can't see you'.  I had hoped to make a more uplifting track that celebrated his life and work, but in truth this music reflects the sadness and anger I feel at what is just a horrible situation.

I Can't See You (Disquiet0294)

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.

This will be my place for Naviar Haiku and Disquiet Junto entries.
