Disquiet Junto Project 0605: Fifty Fifty

GodKingMajorLucre - Dynamite

The day we robbed the bank (2015)

Hiding away again, Vera starts to feel her psychological stability falling apart.  She continues to pray to anything that will hear her pleas to save her from losing herself while trapped alone so far away from home, and no sign of hearing from Vincent and his team.

HIMOS - Hiding Inside My Own Space

'Lincoln’s Tinned Peaches have a new track out called Surrender. It brings together an intriguing mix of flavours. Fast and funky in a frantic Post-Punk influenced manner, the striking melody and tasty Bass Guitar figures grab me immediately. The band’s playing and chemistry is impressive across the board. In the chorus we get tempo shifts, multi-tracked voal harmonies. In the final section, the lead guitarist goes for it and the band’s playing is fluid and almost freeform'.

Minimal Piano Improv (disquiet0605)

In The Book of Laughter and Forgetting, the late Milan Kundera describes how “the space [of memory] is an obstacle to progress.” Kundera also advises us that “the memory of revulsion is stronger than the memory of tenderness,” perhaps implying that the things we forget can be as beneficial to our mental state as what we choose to remember.

Sigmund Freud believed that we repress childhood memories in order to avoid facing the sexual impulses buried within our minds. The actual science isn’t quite that salacious. The boring truth is that children of a certain age simply haven’t developed the cognitive or linguistic skills necessary for recalling people, places, or events.

Ah, but something happens to children between the age of 18 to 24 months. That’s when toddlers are able to recognize themselves in the mirror, thus realizing that they exist as a “me” in a world populated by other “me’s.” From that point forward, the child is the protagonist of an autobiography yet to be written.

This wondrous, perhaps intimidating realization was the theme behind Suss Müsik’s Junto contribution: a sad but simple piano sequence played sparingly on the nature of realization. The chords represent wide-eyed glances into the vaguely familiar; the spaces question what it all might mean.

The piece is titled Kundera in honor of the author, who recently passed away in July 2023.

Kundera [Disquiet0605]

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0605: Fifty Fifty

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0605 discussion thread:

This is ended up more like 60/40 sound to silence ratio or more. Had fun anyway trying to balance those two elements. This was created in Ableton Live using Slate+Ash Choreographs. Used Soundtoys Filterfreak2, Strymon BigSky and Minimal Audio Cluster Delay for effects.

Last Day (disquiet0605)

The assignment this week was to produce a song with as much silence as notes. I did not interpret silence as being total silence.
