**Disquiet Junto Project 0680: Reverse Resolution**  
The Assignment: Finish something (musical) you started last year.

This project has just one step: finish something you started last year, likely a piece of music you left unfinished.

#### Background
It's been a long time since I played anything on keyboard. For the last six months, my electric piano has been sitting up vertically against the studio wall, covered with a sheet and pretty much neglected. During my staycation (almost at an end now) I'd come into the studio, and just before I decloaked the keyboard, I'd get distracted or discouraged somehow.

I thought about the keyboard in relation to this week's assignment and recalled that I had a chord progression that I'd been meaning to do something with. So that's where this started.
#### Studio approach

The chord progression itself is very simple and revolves around a Bb Major 7th in second inversion (F-A-Bb-D) which occasionally resolves to a Dm7 and/or G7. This forms the scaffolding for the track, with degrees of improvisation after resolving to the Dm7.

I found a bass melody which could lead into these chords and played these on an electric (Rhodes-like) piano patch, with the chords played on the piano patch. Beneath this was a spare 3/4 click, which once the piano parts were in place, I used an ML-generated drum pattern with tweaked parameters.

An electric guitar largely compliments the piano chords and steadily opens up a bit, whilst a myriad of synth patches are introduced to provide a bit of atmosphere. Lastly, I included a field recording as a backdrop. This was a recording from new year's day in a national park on the Fleurieu Peninsula.

I guess I could sum up the mood of this track as 'wistfully pensive', much like my general outlook for this year.

Disquiet Junto Project 0681: Drama Course
The Assignment: Record a piece of music to transform a walk or a run into something theatrical.

I started with a bassline and had a kind of wet step drum. I wanted the bass and drums to swell on and off, two people chasing each other and stopping to look around. The main motif that builds up depicts the chaser getting closer and closer. All but the mastering is done in my old trusted caustic app.

Dwindling Distance [disquiet0681]

Back after a lengthy absence from the Disquiet Junto.

The prompt aligned perfectly with my ongoing research into bell-like tones through ring modulation and frequency shifting, inspired by Oren Ambarchi's work, in particular "Grapes From The Estate" (Touch). 
Electric guitar, mostly harmonics, through ring mod plus some atrocious, violent guitar bits and bobs from my archive. 

Hope you enjoy!

Krzysztof Rzeznicki - Outback

This tense and bubbling collection of underscore translates the perpetual and brutal conflicts in the modern Middle East into hostile soundscapes and atmospheres percolating with hazy pads, throbbing synth textures, and driving pulses, and underpinned by exotic and alluring traditional instruments like ney flute, oud, saz, and goblet drums.
