whats there to not like (besides it not what you "wanted")? ;-)

thanks! I find out hard sometimes to really "hear" something I've done, when I was trying for something particular and don't get it. but I'll take what I can get! 😁

Disquiet Junto Project 0586: Chance the Eraser

The Assignment: Use probability to remove material from a track.

Step 1: Record a piece of multitrack music with at least three separate tracks. If you already have a multitrack recording of your own in mind for this project, feel free to use it.

Step 2: Go back and erase various parts of the recording from Step 1 by utilizing chance techniques. (For example, you might roll dice: once to determine which of the multitrack parts, once to determine the starting point in the track of the erasure, and once to determine the length of the erasure.)

. . .

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, March 27, 2023, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, March 23, 2023.

for this project i quickly jammed three voices in ableton, simple motifs, each sequence then used chance functionality (57%, 77% & 70%) to randomly gate the inputted midi. Heavy use of the phenomenal Cycles and some OTT compression. some panning,  delay and reverb

Change About (disquiet0586)

This track was created by randomly fading in and out individually the instruments and recordings of the original track https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/winter-slow-and-even-tempered. The created spaces enrich the track, give more emphasis to the remaining instruments - and a deeper meaning of its own to this composition.  As contradictory as this may seem...

The creation was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0586 (details see below).

I owe my thanks to @user-957729823 (Ha Kéko) for providing the great field-recording https://soundcloud.com/user-957729823/snow-removal_2. An ambient version of this recording was created with PaulXStretch.
These tracks can be heard if hazard determines to fade them in...

ES GESCHIEHT EINFACH

Always Just Beyond

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.
