Disquiet Junto Project 0593: The Charm
The Assignment: Record the second third of an asynchronous trio.

Please note: While this is the third part of a three-part project sequence, you can participate in one, two, or all three of the parts, which have occurred over the course of three consecutive weeks. 

Step 1: This week’s Disquiet Junto project is the third in a sequence that encourages and rewards asynchronous collaboration. This week you will be adding music to a pre-existing track, which you will source from the previous week’s Junto project (disquiet.com/0592). Note that you are finishing a trio: you’re creating the third part of what two previous musicians began. Please keep this in mind.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record an original piece of music, on any instrumentation of your choice, as a complement to a pre-existing track. First, however, you must select the piece of music to which you will be adding your own music. There are tracks by numerous musicians to choose from. The majority are in this playlist:

https://soundcloud.com/disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0592

And additional tracks may appear in the discussion:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0592-better-than-one/

(Note that it’s possible another track or two will pop up in or disappear from that playlist and discussion. Things are fluid on the internet.)

To select a track, you can listen through all those and choose one, or simply look around and select, or you can come up with a random approach to sifting through them.

Note: It’s fine if more than one person uses the same original duet track as the basis for their trio.

It is strongly encouraged that you look through the above discussion on the Lines forum, because many tracks include additional contextual information there.

Step 3: Record a piece of music, roughly the length of the piece of music you selected in Step 2. Your track should complement the piece from Step 2, and it should be placed dead center between the left and right stereo channels. When composing and recording your part, do not alter the original piece of music at all. To be clear: the track you upload won’t be your piece of music alone; it will be a combination of the track from Step 2 and yours.

Step 4: Also be sure, when done, to make the finished track downloadable, because it may be used by someone else in a subsequent Junto project.

Step 5: As with last week, you can contribute more than one track this week. You can do up to two total. If you choose to do a second, you should preferably try to use a duet track that no one else has used yet. The goal is for many as people as possible to benefit from the experience of being part of an asynchronous collaboration. After a lot of detailed instruction, that is the spirit of this project.

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, May 15, 2023, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, May 11, 2023.

Disquiet Junto Project 0593: The Charm

SO inspired by Marc Eisenschink’s Enner performance over encym’s wonderful guitar starting point! Ableton’s Tension synth adds a forward and backward dimension to complete this collaborative trio …

My washing machine wanted to riff over the brilliant 'Washerduo' … I agreed ... and this is what came out in the wash …

I really like the track that was produced by @glitcher, Nobody's Home.  And then the atmosphere added perfectly from @Sinny made Somebody's Home an irresistible track to add to.  So I tried to add some guitar on the left channel and some synth on top without drowning out the clicks and buzzing that makes a home a home and called it Never Alone.  Some compression was required for this, however and I hope the result is satisfactory to the two artists I have borrowed from.

Difficult and new for me to "finish" the trio , the duet has a very good balance...

HalF Feedback (disquiet0593) With Campos And Half Unusual

This track is the third and final part of a Disquiet Junto Project 0593 - to add a third part to a duo that has been created by other Disquiet members.
The left channel is Andreas Kitzmann's track (https://soundcloud.com/andreas-kitzmann-27370936/disquiet0591?si=f7143a5ee5bd411a9af9e73c7d7e0630&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing). The right was added by encym resulting in  "Tête-à-Tête" (https://soundcloud.com/encym/tete-a-tete-disquiet0592?si=5cfeed87321c44dbb80034a8d1ae91bc&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)
I have added a central melodic theme to this haunting drone with a vocal glide patch in Arturia Pigments.
