This already sounds like something I want to add to next week.

The first thunder
Is likely to shake
The tiered doll stand.

Like Santoka and Seisensui, Kawahigashi Hekigoto (1873-1937) was an important advocate of the free verse haiku.
Besides being a writer and critic of haiku, Hekigoto was a literary scholar, noh dancer, art critic, calligrapher, social commentator, and mountain climber.

The First Thunder (naviarhaiku531)

Here is a drone in C# major for Disquiet Junto. The filter cutoff frequencies are slowly modulated by hand to give it some breathing. Hopefully there's enough space for you to add additional parts to it. It's a stereo recording but I expect it to be panned partially or fully to the left 

Created on Elta Music Solar 42 "ambient machine" post-processed with some EQ to limit the frequency spectrum. Just got the Solar 42 yesterday so there is much to learn.

Leftydrone - Disquiet0636

A battery of sine oscillators, slowly moving out of tune. A bass drum keeping pulse. Distortion and convolution. A foundation.

For a second contribution I used the track by 33per - https://soundcloud.com/33per/firebells - and added an electronic sequence panned toward the right.

Disquiet Junto Project 0637: Right (2 of 3)
The Assignment: Record the second third of an eventual trio.

For the second one, I checked my favourites against the list of "unused pieces" and went with https://soundcloud.com/bzurke/jupiter-6-phased-noise-pulse-for-disquiet0636 by soundoferror because of its somewhat forbidding coldness. The strange pulses just called for my Lyra 8, which adds some more improvised noises and sirenes (through Soma Cosmos and of course phasers). I think there is plenty of room for something to give this a whole new direction.

If you need a left-right-version, just ask.

Expanded to a trio here:

3 of 3 (Disquiet0638)

A collaboration for Disquiet Junto. I based my track on week 2's track by @undermulden and @encym. I played some chords and synth arps from my Deluge in some of the spaces, while trying to maintain the sparse ambient feel of the originals.

Orderly Disorder By Encym & Undermulden & Alanblip - Disquiet0638

Thank you @AlvaroDeCampos and @blisterpop. Wonderful track you gave me to work one.
As was the case last week, the instructions for this week’s project are fairly detailed, so please read them at disquiet.com/0638 15 (rather than me stuffing them into a post here).

This is the third phase of a three-phase sequence over the course of as many weeks during which, consecutively and asynchronously, musicians build trios together.

You can participate in any or all three of the three projects. If you participated in last week’s project, please note these two things:

    be sure to set your track as downloadable
    to avoid bot issues on Soundcloud, make sure its license is set to allow creative reuse

Also important: In normal circumstances, Junto projects have a one-track-per-participant limit. However, as with the preceding project that led up to this one, you can contribute more than one track this week. The details on that are in Step 5 of the project instructions 9.

This post popped up at disquiet.com/0638 9 (thanks, powers of automation) shortly after 12:10am Pacific Time on Thursday, March 21. (I was asleep at the time.) The email containing those instructions went out around the same time, also automatically, via juntoletter.disquiet.com. (We recently switched over from TinyLetter, because TinyLetter was shut down by its owner, Mailchimp, at the end of last month.) Come morning, after I woke up, I posted the instructions here, and at my Mastodon account, plus Bluesky, Threads, and Instagram, etc. And if you’re on a platform, like Mastodon or Instagram, that uses hashtags, please use the #DisquietJunto tag. Much appreciated.
