great track tried something https://soundcloud.com/bick-brannigan/rawley-poly-duet-with-modus-ponyhttps://soundcloud.com/bick-brannigan/rawley-poly-duet-with-modus-pony

some these sounds are organic sounding. what are they?

“Wherever we are, what we hear is mostly noise. When we ignore it, it disturbs us. When we listen to it, we find it fascinating,” John Cage said in his 1937 lecture, “The Future of Music: Credo.” He continued: “The sound of a truck at fifty miles per hour. Static between the stations. Rain. We want to capture and control these sounds, to use them, not as sound effects, but as musical instruments.” In this week’s Disquiet Junto project, we take the proposition literally.

For Junto Project 0464: Blanket Song
Ok, this is not a usual junto submission for me as this is a personal track I’ve been working on for the past two weeks, and I was planning to properly release/distribute this one as soon as I finish it. But it suits the challenge so much that I’ll share it here first even if I tweak it a little bit next week for release.

Sometimes, when I hear music that inspires me to do something remotely similar, I start by learning (sometimes even recording) the part that produced a spark on me (a chord progression, a groove etc) and I work my song on top of that.

These past weeks I watched a show, *The Leftovers* season 1, and the music (by Max Richter) got on my head. So, I started recording it to try to analyse what’s so powerful on its simplicity, then try to do something similar. I did some changes, a different little melody, some notes on the arpeggio, and left it there.

Then a friend gave me an old Grestch snare drum, I did some recording at the end of the session I was working at that moment (my  Leftover-nick track) to check the snare’s sound, and loved it, reminded me of Gaisbourg’s “Melody Nelson” album so I added a picked jazz bass, and organ and then (why?) I decided to combine both things: **Max Richter meet Serge Gainsbourg**.

For a whole week I did some “serious” composition after that, the results are quite original and personal I think.
So I decided to dedicate the song to all Scorpios around (like me, and a dozen friends and relatives that celebrate their birthdays these fist 22 days of November and late October)
To stay on the stealing/inspiring mood, I nicked the title from some lyrics by Phoebe Bridgers (with whose music I’ve been seriously infatuated BTW)

So, this one’s for Max Richter, Serge Gainsbourg, Phoebe Bridgers and all Scorpios around.

Officially released Dec 30th 2020

This is stub of our collab piece for the Disquiet Junto Jam Time 2021. It is inspired by a patch by Omri Cohen and follows his idea of unsynced loops that I found relieving. For a long time my hesitation with electronic music creation was the idea of proper syncronisation...

Looper Unsynced (disquiet0472)

Morn Lighting (solo voice track)  NOTES

January 13, 2021 Naviar Haiku #367, a poem by Morikawa Kyoroku:

morning light
the first blossoms of spring
bloom over-night

The Haiku was divided into 12 syllables and randomly reordered. This was done 12 times creating 12 lines of random text from the original Haiku. I recorded myself reading the text. 

The track can be chopped into phrases to make it longer or add space for other sounds.
