the sadness of things
a fisherman's torch

dropped glass (Naviarhaiku 610)

川伝いに行く
水源をめざす
崖の高さを目で測りながら
その姿を高みから目で追う
熱を孕んだ雲が重く
蛇行する川に向かって腫れ上がる
遠くの丘にひときわ高く扇のように枝を広げる木の
水草に隠れた煉瓦の樋門の暗い口に引き込まれる目

An older sister and a younger brother are measuring
the height of the cliff as they trace the river upstream to its source.
From a high vantage point, I look down upon them.
Heat-laden clouds swell toward the meandering river.
A single tree stands tall on a distant hill, spreading its branches like a fan.
Its gaze is fixed on the dark opening of a small brick sluice gate, half-hidden by water plants.

This track was created for the Naviar Haiku group.

KESSELHAUS FACTORY LIVE 10/2025

Evening, Morning? I recorded using a TASCAM in a basement with an annoying rolling chair over me, I needed a smoke, great Junto time, I recorded getting the cigarette, walking outside, getting Sour Patch Kids from a bowl, smoking and taking Charlie the Chihuahua to the bathroom. I selected the rolling chair, cause it has been driving me bonkers with multiple office chairs rolling above. I took close mouth samples while chewing slowly. I then took the sample and ran it thru Live with the Push slicing it up in sampler in the section with the rolling boosted, played and looped thru 16 bars. I then layered this with the original recording of a cigarette trip to the front porch and back. The windows in all spaces were open.

Wolfin Sour Kids in Denver Disquiet0436

I woke up early and saw this weeks brief. The normal sounds of morning, birdsong and occasional traffic, a nearby train, the occasional buzzing of bees in the garden.  Talking from a nearby garden. Life is all around us even in a time of lockdown (which is becoming less and less adhered to as the government talks of lifting restrictions here in the UK)

I recorded this using my trusty Zoom H4N with wide angle internal mics.

Disquiet0436 7am Friday Morning

Recording the sounds outside the top floor window at 7AM on Friday morning with my DR-05X - minimal processing (EQing only). Mainly birdsong, light distant traffic, and some faraway sounds of the rubbish bins being collected.

This week sounds from around the world  - check out other sounds with the same tag. 

This is from my backyard just now 

Step 1: Make a field recording, indoors or outdoors. Your recording may be of any length. If you make your recording outdoors, be attentive to sounds of nature that are now more audible due to restrictions on human activity during the pandemic. If you are under strict quarantine and cannot go outside, create your soundscape indoors, capturing the domestic sounds that you consider characteristic of your current circumstances.

Step 2: Upload your recording per the standard Junto instructions below.

Step 3: Download field recordings by other Junto members. Play the downloaded tracks in one ear, leaving your other ear open to hear the sounds in your midst. As you listen to the stereo soundscapes, your hearing will be extended, situating you in acoustic environments that you’ll share with other participants.

Field Recording - My Backyard - late afternoon -  8 May 2020 - disquiet0436

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.






Update: All my music is now Creative Commons licensed. This means if you want to use it in a video or an app then go for it. All I ask is that you credit me and link back here to my soundcloud (http://soundcloud.com/junklight). It would also be cool if you could let me know you've used it. 


I love listening to music. I love making music 

I love technology, but only as a means to an end when it comes to music making. 

I'm after music that has life not music that is perfectly constructed 

Here is my music
