Disquiet Junto Project 0679: Ice Age
The Assignment: Record the sound of ice in a glass and make something with it.

With my Zoom H5 I recorded some Ice Cubes falling into and moving inside a salad bowl made of glass. I made a lot of efforts to get most out of the sound, for example I placed the bowl on a clotheshorse, so that it can swing more freely … but at the end I didn't use these sounds. I applied a lot of diverse stretching and reverb to get some pads and made a Pigments granular patch with some sounds I liked most. What I had planned didn't work and I made a lot of unusable detours. Now it's mostly an improvisation over some kind of instable repetitive structure, and I like it. All sound is based on the ice cube glass recordings; you may assume there are water noises, but it's really (stretched) ice, maybe sometimes with some surrounding meltwater.

The recordings can be found on my Freesound page

ICEDESCENCE [disquiet0679]

on New Year's Day
everywhere, a corrupt world's
blossoms.

As customary, the first haiku of the year is by Kobayashi Issa.

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa (1763-1828) was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun.

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0679: Ice Age. The Assignment: Record the sound of ice in a glass and make something with it.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0679 discussion thread on Lines:

At first I wasn’t sure if I had time but am glad I’m able to participate in the first Disquiet Junto for the new year. Created this dark noisy soundscape using field recordings of ice rattling in two different drinking vessels. Then copied these sounds into a 64hp rack that included Morphagene, Function, Ikarie and Nautilus. Combined everything in Ableton Live and added a couple random field recordings, samples and an additional track using Slate+Ash Primaries Strings. This turned out more chaotic and dense than I would have liked but enjoyed the creative process of putting this together.

Icehouse [disquiet0679]

All sounds originate from the Behringer Kobol with mixing and effects from Logic. I love the Kobol which is simple yet quirky.

I felt the haiku to be very hard to interpret. The line "corrupt world's blossoms" was hard to understand. What I knew was that it didn't invoke the same peaceful ambient textures that haiku's usually inspire.  So this tune is a bit harsh compared to the others.

Does anyone ever read these descriptions? :-)
