In this very special episode John steps inside the jingle factory of podcaster, comedian, writer, actor and musician Adam Buxton.&nbsp; Digging into the depths of his archive, Adam charts his life and career breaking down the songs and jingles that punctuated each moment. From finding arpeggiators in music shops and writing ‘smutty’ rhymes with his friends, to applying advice from Nigel Godrich in the epic efforts of Song Wars on the Adam and Joe Show. Alongside all of the jingle fun, we’re treated to comparisons between the aspects of music and comedy, the effects of cultural fascination and exclusion, as well as thoughts on mental health when writing. Listen to find out where Adam got the inspiration to combine Scott Walker with Will.I.Am and Britney, why he decided to recreate all of the audio in Star Wars, and the truth behind how irritated he actually got with Joe during Song Wars. &nbsp; Tracks discussed: The Podcast Groove, Mind of a Pirate, The Counting Song, Special Bath, Playboi Buckles, Like and Subscribe and many many more. &nbsp; GEAR MENTIONS      &nbsp; SUBMIT A JINGLE For all of the details on sending in a jingle email jingles@tapenotes.co.uk&nbsp;&nbsp; Submit your Tape Notes jingle and we'll play our favourites each week on the podcast.

TN:66 Adam Buxton

Displeased with their school district's policy restricting students from wearing hats and hoods, a group of middle schoolers plan to challenge the rule at an upcoming school committee meeting. Over the course of this podcast, the students explore the history of this rule and lend insight on how they plan to challenge it.

disquiet0591 - patchouli wash

For this project I used a message someone left on my answering machine in 2000 or 2001. The message was clearly not for me and I am not sure what it means (or even what language it is). My guess is “Goran Bocic has a daughter, call her” (based on the guess that it is Bosnian).

So I chopped up the recording in koala sampler, did a little beat, some beeps, and left a lot of empty spaces to fill for someone else. I did not process the recording in any way and all the samples are in their original loudness and pitch. Also I did not use any effects, that’s for the next person. If someone wants to use the  original recording, drop me a line.

We Need  You Tay (disquiet0591)95 BPM

Playing with the Torso is curating, more than creating. 
The Torso T1 presents musical ideas you can select from. And T1 is a time traveller. Sends you music from the past. What a beautiful machine. 
This is a curated track, Lots of  step events on FS1r vocals
Some Midi FX with a Future Retro Zillion.
Congenial track-title is taken from Fredric Jameson, "Postmodernism, or the cultural logic of late capitalism". Head of chapter Nine. Jameson, a good read.

Disquiet Junto Project 0592: Better Than One 
The Assignment: Record the second third of an asynchronous trio.. More info on Disquiet Junto: http://disquiet.com/0592

Inspired by @alyceobvious composition (https://soundcloud.com/alyceobvious/abstraction-cactus-flower) I decided to continue exploring Georgia O’Keeffe’s Radical Abstraction. 
I was inspired by the painting “The Beyond” (1972 - https://learn.ncartmuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/OKeeffe_The-Beyond-1024x772.jpg) and a quote:
“The color […] had little to do with what I’d seen. The color grew as I painted”. (from the lecture www.okeeffemuseum.org/georgia-okeeff…l-abstraction/)

I tried to apply the same concept to time, playing and painting bigger spaces every time, tracing a line between my previous submission disquiet0591) and this one. After the accident I have to rebuild a new relationship with my body: this time I worked with breathing and feeling space-time oscillations in my legs, my ankles, my shoulders and let the flow be my metronome. It was fun dancing with my double bass again, after a long time, it felt like meditation or one of the delicate and at the same time intense paintings of O'Keeffe. 

“Fill a space in a beautiful way.” - G. O’Keeffe

At bar 6 I start playing an ascending phrase with the notes F#, C#, F, D#, length 1 bar 50bpm. I then leave a full bar of silence and there starts the growing process, stretching spaces by adding eight note silences after every repetition of the musical fragment.
I doubled on fretless bass with a bit of chorus and then sprinkled both basses in a bit of convolution reverb. It was very interesting to observe the discrepancies and similarities of time and body-feeling with the two instruments, as well as phasing and subtle time differences that this process creates.

Beyond Abstraction Cactus Flower (disquiet0592)

This track is an asynchronous duet with @Krakenkraft. Based on the great track https://soundcloud.com/winterer/the-patient-earthworm-disquiet0591 I added further elements with the idea to transform the earthworm of the first part to a caterpillar dreaming of an unknown future...

The beautiful cover-art of this track was kindly provided by @the_robocat.
