come in, have a seat | disquiet0515

my first disquiet submission. a chance encounter with this picture on instagram posted by dsqt made me take notice. i didn't know anything about disquiet before this. i kept staring into this picture, past all the text, and my mind started to drift. It is only a few hours later on revisiting  that i read about the project and decided to participate.

the basis of "come in, have a seat" is a field recording of trees in the wind. a few weeks back, on a walk in the neighborhood, the track came on as part of a random selection from my music library. it was comforting to listen to as i walked through a mostly concrete jungle. i checked to see what the track was, and to my surprise, i found it was something i'd recorded nearly 10 years ago for a play - the sound of trees in a gentle wind.

i wanted the listener to begin to feel like they belong.

streams lit by the sun. the mengqi wingie 2 continues to inspire new sounds and textures

sunlit stream

Meng Qi 's #Wingie 2 is one of the most deeply gratifying instruments i've interacted with in the last few years; it feels personal, intimate and experimental all at the same time. when i began sketching, i missed being able to add notes from a lower octave, while keeping most of the melodic content in the upper registers. so i went out and got another Wingie 2. they make a beautiful pair together

this piece was a bit outside the usual for me, but so are the times we live in and everything i'm experiencing. i hope you enjoy listening.

i roughly remember the good times
