Speech is broken music. Words contaminate the acoustic space with meaning and will, and there’s no grace in will.

La Vanità dell'Intenzione (disquiet0532)

Verbal communication is bad sounding ensemble music. Virtual meetings are glitchy bad sounding cacophoniae where the ensemble can’t even play in time. And yet hearing is such a beautiful sense…

The active principle of Antilexoprene is a wave of floating unpitched wave tables scans. This should help pausing verbal thoughts in the patient. Untested aid.

Cheesy Five (disquiet0540)

Tough assignment… This could have being called horror vacui since I couldn’t avoid filling with delay effects and adding some free form pianoforte arpeggios to escape that emptiness of 10bpm. I need to talk about this to my psychotherapist :slight_smile:

Tried playing it at 12x speed after recording it and doesn’t sound techno at all, so I guess it doesn’t fit the assignment very well. I am posting it anyway since at least it is at 10BPM.

Ogni 6 Secondi (disquiet0541)

When I first read this week’s call I wanted to elaborate on my aesthetic assumptions as Ossimuratore that verbal communication is corrupted music.

I was a bit struggling until I listened to @ostacoli-sonori’s INTRUSIONS. This made me realize something odd about my musical education: as many italian kids grown up in the seventies and eighties I didn’t study english until middle school, so I used to listen to a lot of foreign pop and rock music without understanding a word of the lyrics.

In this track I use an exerpt from a cult italian movie called Amici Miei where Conte Mascetti gives what has been since then popularized in Italy as supercazzola (i.e. gimmerick italian used to persuade someone).

The idea is that gimmerick language, by dropping its semantic transport function, can retain musical significance.

Harmonic Discontinuities (disquiet0564)

Yet another take on plain triadic harmony with a modulating bridge from Gm to Am. 

Drones added as an attempt to purge verbal thought (as I consider it a disturbing side of the mind while producing and consuming music) and also because I'm shy and feel too naked releasing clean tonal material.

Made with AKAI Force.

Wish I Could Wish (disquiet0570)

A constant C# bordone sets the mood, together with a foley noise that feeds back modulated by an envelope follower. A tonal pompous lump motive repeats itself many times as an exausted patriot in a world with no nations. IMHO there’s an overall feeling of tense obtuseness in this track that makes sense somehow, so I decided to submit it anyway. Thanks for listening ❤️

Vocazione (disquiet0602)

I’ve felt quite a strong horror vacui discomfort trying to fulfill this week exercise. I’ve tried with a sparse very basic triadic harmonic theme, preceded and followed by an off-tempo pattern that obeys the 1/3 rule by spreading the silence irregularly throught the bars.
