haiku #518: dark clouds menacing – / I doubt we shall reach shelter / before the deluge

Disquiet Junto Project 0607: Silence Wave
The Assignment: From close to zero and back again, alter the relative amount of sound to silence in a piece of music.

There’s just one step to this project:

Compose a piece of music in which the relative amount of sound to silence starts at zero (that is, no sound), rises to approximately 40 percent (that is, 60 percent silent) and returns to zero again. Keep the pace fairly steady.

Haiku by Raymond Cobley https://soundcloud.com/ray_cobley

The basis of this track is a recording of a thunderstorm made a couple of months back. The rhythm tracks are generated solely from that storm recording and you can hear the original sounds of thunder and rain in the background, throughout the track. Enjoy!

Dark Clouds Menacing (naviarhaiku518)

I recorded a track, then played it through a Bluetooth receiver at the limit of its transmission range. I also recorded the EMF around the receiver, while playing the same track at distance. 

The three tracks were merged, using vocoders, and AudioThing's Motor to help add some musicality to the broken Bluetooth track.
