Piano by Chris Ledwidge

Things Are Fluid (disquiet0473)

Made for the junto disquiet 0473

Using this piece https://soundcloud.com/peter-eisenhauer/disquiet0472-jamtime-1-of-3 by Peter Eisenhauer. 
Part 2 of an ongoing collaboration

Simple random orca sequence into a Korg Minilogue with some subtle effects added. My addition is panned right following the instructions

Placebo Effect (disquiet0473)

I started with abalone's ticking clock and snapping fingers, and added some mechanical and organic textures at repeating intervals to make a sci-fi sounding track. The clock makes it suspenseful. Lots of sounds going on but there should be space to add some musical elements.

This is an unfinished composition, part 2 of a 3 part Disquiet Junto collaboration. Other Junto members may add their recordings to this part in the next few weeks to form a complete piece of music.

EDIT: TRIO-Version here: https://soundcloud.com/melondruie/unsafe-approach-disquiet-0474

When showering in the morning I mostly listen to Soma FM Deep Space One. Yesterday I heard something interesting and checked the playlist: some guy named Louigi Verona. I found his website and checked his "none-random number generator" https://louigiverona.com/nrng/ which is some kind of insider joke for coders: While other "random number" generators try to give you an unreliable random number (which mostly, maybe never is really random (not only depending on how our universe really works)), his nrng reliably outputs the same, non-random number, in my case: 37. I'm telling you this, because its not important and just a chain of random events which lead to this track.

Anyway: So I took track 37 from the list, "safe", an ambient improv of some kind, in Cmajor, made by https://soundcloud.com/rheinmusic. I wanted to add some sequencing patterns but nothing I made intentionally did work out for me. So I ended up with a sequence from the CA2600 from Cherry Audio (25$ at some Xmas sales, btw my recommendation, a must-have no-brainer (for 2600-non-purists)) and improvised on it. Cm may be a "safe" scale, but the sequence sometimes misses the mark, especially at the beginning … hence the name of the track.

Sorry for the long story. I did not seek perfection and think there is room for example for a drum improvisation with cymbals (or a classic theme thingy).

Semi-safe Approach [disquiet0473] PANNED

This adds to rhein's track, Safe (https://soundcloud.com/rheinmusic/safe-disquiet0472). And also takes a fairly safe approach. Some piano and later a sequenced Newfangled Audio Gravitate with a little tape effect and some echo and reverb.

Snow Walk (disquiet0474) with Analoc and halF unusuaL

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.
