Really creepy, a captivating listening experience!

This moves from scene to scene. This is great and so is the artwork here. The whispering adds to it all.

Disquiet Junto Project 0617: Haunt Scape
The Assignment: Halloween is coming up. Do your thing.

In the haunting shadows of a disquiet Halloween, I craved a genuine fright, so I summoned an 8-track version of Bitwig with a cruel code from the sinister pages of "ComputerMusic" magazine (August 2023). Since that blood-curdling Superbooth 23 affair, the eerie Cthulhu call of this DAW has haunted my dreams, yet the terrifying thought of the time needed for mastering IT always kept me at bay. Now, having dared to dance with this phantom... it's eerily … but okay. Alas, this 8-track version, drained by nocturnal vampires, has had many of its limbs horrifically amputated. Thus, even armed with my trusty modular hatchet, it's hard to gauge if braving this ghostly realm is worth it. Be that as it may, a few nocturnal samples, mummified synths, and a disemboweled Lyra8 impro might not raise the dead from the graves, but together they gave me some creeps. (A little bit.)


Track cover made with Dall-e 3.

The Synths Have Eyes [disquiet0617]

his was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0617: Haunt Scape

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0617 discussion thread:

This week's prompt coincided nicely with a playful Halloween inspired piece I've been working on the past couple days. It's actually something I started a year ago that I never had a chance to complete till now. It's more of a mildly spooky ditty than a haunt scape. 

Used Ableton Live Bouncy Notes and Patter for sequencing. Created a melody track using the Theremin Whistle preset in the Wavetable synth. Additional sound effect tracks were added. Effects plugins included Valhalla Vintage Verb, Aberrant DSP Sketch Cassette and Digitalis. Here's a link to a video version on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9m87Dstnf0Q

Binding Trilogy (disquiet0617)

This is my first submission to the Disquiet Junto project.

I wanted to incorporate elements from early horror movie themes, how composition was used before any advanced synth and effects were used. The bass motif hear throughout the track is base on the Spider Baby (1967) movie theme. I also tried creating creepy effects by processing percussion sounds.

Dark Delights (disquiet0617)

Made in response to Disquiet Junto Project 0617: Haunt Scape
The Assignment: Halloween is coming up. Do your thing.
There is just one step to this project: Halloween is nearly here, so make some haunted sounds for people to play for trick-or-treaters.

I don't always enjoy the scary things, but I really enjoyed making some scary music. I jammed for about an hour on some hardware gear with this prompt in mind. Later that night, I walked around the house recording my creeky wood floors and rusty doors. Then cut for length and added some effects and edits in Live. 
While I was making these sounds, my wife Monica created this digital collage image. We enjoyed this simultaneous creative process and plan on doing it again. She wrote about this here: https://waxingphotopoetic.substack.com/p/circle-of-tree-thieves-creaking-in?r=7wafc&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Disquiet0617 - The Uninvited

The result of my text to voice experiment was, apart from a few recognisable words & phrases, total gibberish, made worse by the apparently inevitable North American intonation, which is hardly appropriate in this case.  I used a random article from an old local newspaper & the first online software I came across. I added a touch of echo to the voice track & combined it with a sequence of electronic sounds.
