"I had just purchased a new audio plug-in -- Drip, and wished to try it out. I did not want to test it on any former projects' tracks of mine, so I opted to open a new file on my DAW. Then, I saw Marc's email detailing this week's disquiet junto project.

I downloaded and imported the audio file authored by Chris Kallmyer, and listened to it three times, choosing what portion to edit out and use as a soundbed. I cut a chosen section out, and edited it down to a usable musical measure; the tempo approximated 70.56 beats-per-minute.

I copied and pasted seventeen repetitions of it side by side, and I then effected it with a Blue Cat chorus, SoundToys' MicroShift, and a lush and lovely reverb called Oril River. I automated the reverb to venture from 100% dry to 100% wet over the course of the seventeen bars to give the idea that the chime-bed was fading far-off into the distance over the course of the tune.

I then accidentally found some scraps of audio on my DAW workbench and took them to be happy accidents. I used them, editing out singular tones and rather brief passages. I placed them at the beginning, middle, and end of the soundbed, merely following instinct as I went, eventually forming a coherent composition, which reminded me of clock-chiming; thus, the name of the work.

Funny thing is, I forgot to test and utilize my new Drip plug-in. LOL!"

"The Clock Chimes Forevermore" [disquiet0485] [2023 REMASTER] - Michael Ash Sharbaugh

Welcome to halF unusuaL, an evolving space inspired by play in the spirit of ‘hai’ (meaning “fun” or “unusual” in the word haiku). Here, improvisation connects the unexpected, mining the boundary between music and non-music to shape sound worlds that feel oddly familiar in their oddity. Listen freely, explore deeply, and for the sounds to live for your eyes as well as your ears, please stop by the YouTube channel. Thank you for joining this journey! Your support helps keep this afloat ... and is HUGELY appreciated 🥰

POP | SPACEROCK | VAPORTRAP | TRIP-HOP
AMBIENT | EXPERIMENTAL

the PERSON, the SOUND : Since 1985, Philadelphia-born Michael has composed and released hundreds of audio recordings, and published dozens of [erotic] poems.

His 'sonic-sojourn' began suddenly when he was just a teen -- feet splashing rhythmically through puddles leftover by a seaside rainstorm. Having just parted ways with the then-love-of-his-life, Michael composed his first ballad [and first song] ever -- "Tina." He rushed to his beach-side home to record his visceral 'awakening' on a tiny micro-cassette recorder, and vowed -- from that day on -- to create art for the rest of his life.

He began zealously amassing used music equipment, and had built a modest home recording studio by age seventeen, all the while crafting simple pop, ambient, and experimental works that HE had wanted to listen to -- that HE had wanted to hear, affectionately emulating the works of his then-idols, Duran Duran and Brian Eno.

Now, decades later, he has relocated to a small village outside Atlanta, Georgia, and continues to voraciously attend to his dream as a young, heartbroken boy -- to create and release music that he, himself, wants to hear.

Although no longer sequestered to pop and ambient musics, Michael's signature sound has merged the two, having integrated the R&B, hiphop, and psychedelia he has grown to love as a older gent -- having absorbed the edgy rhythms and dreamy soul of the southern United States (Atlanta and Miami).

Michael still puts forth ample amounts af ambient musics, but his recent 'sound' hovers elsewhere -- somewhere amidst the genres of vaportrap, spacerock, and trip-hop.

I hope you enjoy something you find here. Do feel free to be in touch, you never know what might happen.  

I also invite you to attend @hypnopompetus, a duo project with the illustrious Cheesemont Paisley-Paisley https://soundcloud.com/sel-sync, and Fictive Sisters, a transatlantic band with  the incomparable Wheelwright https://fictivesisters.bandcamp.com/album/immaculate-distraction.

Electronic music/video producer and composer. 
Dark Ambient Cinematic atmospheres from Sardinia.

From the acid and dusty factories of the electronic underground, through the devastated and pure immaculated nature of Sardinia, an explosion of anger and melancholy darkness transforms electronics into a cinematic orchestra.
